An anti-Semitic TV series about alleged Jewish plans for world domination is being aired in Iran. “The Diaspora,” a Syrian-produced series that aired last year on Hezbollah TV, depicts a “Secret Jewish World Government” whose members plot ways to use their influence to direct world leaders and history, according to Palestinian Media Watch. In the series, the Jewish government causes the Communist revolution and world wars, and perpetrates the Nazi murder of Jews and the atomic bomb attack on Japan, the group says. The series also includes a graphic episode featuring Jews slitting the throat of a Christian boy to drain his blood for Passover matzoh.
