Sweden: Domestic Spying?

Tino, Truck and Barter:
Iranian embassy in Sweden seems to be actively looking for holocaust deniers in Sweden. What is going on?

The Iranian-blog “Friairanvanner(Free friends of Iran) has discovered that one of their visitors, who is a known employee of the Iranian embassy in Sweden, was using the Swedish search engine to search for “holocaust denier" in sweden. The person found the Mark Steyn article that the friends of Iran blog was reprinting.

Embassy IP address: iranskaambassaden-104536.k.se.telia.net (217.209.236.66)

What is Iran doing? Is this a central directive? Are they attempting to find holocaust denier to help them in propaganda? This would hardly be surprising, given the “liberties” Iranian espionage in Europe take. Maybe there is a innocent explanation, but what?

Worth keeping an eye on.
