Three Whom God Should Not Have Created: Persians, Jews, and Flies

Three Whom God Should Not Have Created: Persians, Jews, and Flies () is an alleged political pamphlet by Khairallah Talfah, an i official and the maternal uncle and father-in-law of Saddam Hussein. The pamphlet was authored in 1940, but was published during the era of Saddam Hussein. The document is highly derogatory towards Persians and Jews.
In 1980, following the start of the Iran-Iraq War, the Iraqi government publishing house Dar al-Hurriyya (Abode of Liberty) republished it, and the Iraqi Ministry of Education distributed the propaganda as part of a textbook for school-children.
The work describes Persians as "animals God created in the shape of humans", Jews as a "mixture of dirt and the leftovers of diverse people", and flies as poor misunderstood creatures "whom we do not understand God's purpose in creating".
