I read your cartoon and was not offended by it. In fact, I read that cartoon and a number of other political/activist cartoons all the time. What bothered me was you being upset that someone in Iran linked to it, and the assumption that they are Holocaust deniers. (I can't read Farsi so I don't have a clue if they are or aren't.) Would it be any different if a site in South Africa, Pakistan, Fiji, Poland, Crawford, or Milwaukee linked to your server? However, the real problem is that this thread has nothing even remotely to do with technical writing. If you don't want them to link to your site, block them and move on.
