The statement set off a firestorm of criticism. According to Egyptian news reports, ElBaradei is under attack both in the media and on social network. Journalist Muhammad Jamal al-Din explained, "In ElBaradei's interview with the Americans he told them we were against democracy.

Speaking with the French he said we were against art and culture and an interview with the Germans he said that we deny the Holocaust. Had he spoken to the Indians he would have told them we're going to slaughter cows."

Egyptian State Minister in charge of the parliament Muhammad Mahsub challenged ElBaradei to "tell all Egyptians if he said those words or not, because Egypt has laws regarding the Holocaust. We will not allow ElBaradei to force us to believe or not believe in the Holocaust."

An Egyptian newswoman said, "One of the most remarkable things is that ElBaradei has no problem denying the existence of Allah while considering Holocaust denial a serious problem."
