Islamic Extremism
Islamic Hatred Toward Israel
The
setting: Palestinian TV in the Arab States; a children's program being viewed all
over the Middle East, comparable in musical score and puppet
characters to Sesame Street; the child being interviewed; a
little girl of about eight years old with big eyes that appear to
be empty, as though there is no soul behind them. Her mouth moves
robotic like and these words come forth: "When
I wander into the entrance of Jerusalem, I turn into a suicide
warrior. I turn into a suicide warrior in battle dress."
An imaginary scenario you say, no, a factual scene that actually
took place and is being repeated daily in the Islamic nations
around the world.
Are
you aware that these children are being brain washed? Do you
recognize the danger to them and to the world they live in? Do you
care, are you one of the typical head in the sand, I hope it
will go away, maybe it's just a fad, it could never happen
to me, nearly
ineffectual members of humanity.
The Arab world governments
in general, and the Palestinian Authority in particular, are
making an attempt finish the job that Hitler started. Six million
is not enough for these New Nazis; they want the rest of the
Jewish population to disappear as well.
The
Arab world governments and specifically the Palestinian Authority
are raising and supporting the new wave of Nazis. They are out to
kill the Jews, and they believe that they will go to heaven for it.
The
father of the Islamic suicide bomber who blew up the bus today in
Jerusalem told Reuters that he was "very happy that my son
was the bomber."
How
about the words of this proud mom. Her name is Naima al Obeid. Her
23-year-old son, Mahmoud, was shot dead after killing two Israeli
soldiers near the Gaza settlement of Dujit last Saturday. Before
he left to go Jew hunting, his mommy made a video with him in
which she told him, "G-d willing, you will succeed. May every
bullet hit its target, and may G-d give you martyrdom. This is the
best day of my life."
When she was asked about the killing of Israeli women and
children, Mama Nazi replied, "The women and children are also
Jews. And I want to tell Jewish mothers: Take your children and
run from here because you will never be safe. We believe our sons
go to heaven when they are martyred and when your sons die, they
go to hell."
And
then there's Mariam Farhat. Her son Mohammed broke into a study
hall at a nearby Jewish settlement in Gaza back in March. He used
grenades and automatic rifles instead of gas, and he killed five
Israeli students and wounded 23 before he could be stopped.
Here's
what his warped minded mother had to say to the camera: "When
I see all the Jews in Palestine killed, that will be enough for
me. I wish he will kill as many of them as he can, so they will be
scared."
It's
really no wonder that these people think this way. Just read, look
at or listen to the state-run Arab media and you get a handbook on
how to create today's New Nazi.
Saudi
TV features a little girl being asked by the interviewer about the
Jews. "They are monkeys and apes," she says.
Another
Saudi hit shows a man claiming to be a psychiatrist telling the
interviewer about the thrill of blowing yourself up.
"Counting down 10,
9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and
when he gets to 1 and pushes the button, that's the height of
euphoria."
Saudi
newspapers tell the Arab world that Jews use human blood to make
pastries.
Palestinian
Authority TV isn't any better. In a scene dated Dec.14, a young
Palestinian man is shown repeatedly stabbing a Jewish man in a car
stopped in the West Bank
Palestinian
TV broadcasts a sermon given at a mosque. "They are all
liars. They must all be massacred. They must all be killed. Have
no pity for them. Wherever they are, wherever you meet them
kill the Jews!"
Still
another sermon on PA TV, as a young child is shown listening
intently: "Bless those who put the belt around his waist or
his sons and enter deeply in the Jewish community and say Allah is
great. As the building collapsed on the heads of the Jews
..."
Then
there's the Palestinian Authority TV version of our own
"Sesame Street." Here young children are shown getting
up in front of other youngsters and performing: "Each and
every part of your soul. I have drenched with all my blood, and we
shall march as warriors ..."
The child then says, "Thank you," and the teacher
shouts, "Bravo! Bravo!" as the students applaud wildly.
Could
Hitler have done it any better?
Rabbi Zalman Gurevitch was wearing a traditional black robe when he left his synagogue in Frankfurt’s Westend neighborhood on Sept. 7, 2007. It was the Sabbath. According to the police report, he encountered a 22-year-old German of Afghan descent “spontaneously and coincidentally” a short time later. It was early evening and the man, shouting “You shit Jew, I’m going to kill you,” plunged a knife into the rabbi’s abdomen. Gurevitch was recognizable as a Jew. He survived, thanks to luck and emergency surgery.
Although this attack was an isolated incident, it is hard to overlook how hatred imported from Beirut and Gaza resurfaces in the form of daily acts of anti-Semitism in schools and athletic clubs, on streets and in the subway. Young children raised to be anti-Semitic are already using the phrase “You Jew!” as a derogatory expression in kindergartens and on playgrounds. Schoolchildren berate their teachers, calling them Jew dogs, for not offering
Sharia-compatible instruction, and Jewish schoolchildren are attacked and feel compelled to switch to Berlin’s Jewish high school and to hide the insignia of their Jewish faith — the yarmulke and the Star of David — when in public.
Neo-Nazi sentiments were behind the majority of anti-Semitic incidents reported in 2006. At the same time, however, the number of anti-Semitic criminal offences committed by Muslims jumped from 33 to 88.
In 2007 the German Interior Ministry published a study on the worldviews of “Muslims in Germany,” the most comprehensive of its kind to date, which confirmed this trend. According to the study, “anti-Semitic attitudes were found among young Muslims far more often than among non-Muslim immigrants or domestic non-Muslims.” The study cited examples of Muslim students to illustrate that this anti-Semitism cannot be dismissed as the product of an underdog attitude within marginalized social groups, but instead represents an ideological way of thinking. “The pervasiveness of sweeping anti-Semitic prejudices among Muslim students was also noticeable,” the study pointed out. “Such prejudices, expressed indirectly by slightly more than one-third and in extreme form by about 10 percent of students, are significantly more common than anti-Christian sentiments.”
What is the source of this profound hatred, which stations like
al-Aqsa and al-Manar are spreading and one in 10 of the Muslim students surveyed embraces? The Middle East conflict is often cited as a reason, but this is too simplistic. Hostility toward Jews has existed since Islam came into being. In its charter, Hamas quotes the Prophet Muhammad as saying: “The Day of Judgment will not come about until Muslims fight Jews and kill them. Then, the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will cry out: ‘O Muslim, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him.” Through the use of such language, the hatred of Jews is given a religious justification.
Nazi Germany entered the picture in the 20th century. The Nazis, hoping to use early Islamic hostility toward Jews for their own ends, paid substantial sums of money to support the Muslim Brotherhood’s anti-Jewish campaigns in Egypt. And just as they had radicalized widespread Christian anti-Semitism in Europe, the Nazis did their utmost to radicalize the latent anti-Judaism that had originated in early Islam.
While everything Jewish was considered evil in early Islam, everything evil was now being labeled as Jewish, from wars and revolutions to the drug trade and the decline of moral values. Between 1938 and 1945, the Nazis’ radio station broadcast its lies about a supposed Jewish world conspiracy into the Islamic world every evening. The professionally produced programs were broadcast in Arabic, Persian and Turkish, and were very popular. Thus, it comes as no surprise that the Hamas charter has also adopted this legacy.
The Jews, we read in Article 22, “stood behind the French Revolution, the Communist Revolution and most of the revolutions we hear about… They stood behind World War I … There is no war going on anywhere without them having their finger in it.”
Whether in the case of Muhammad or here, in both cases Hamas used sources to justify its hatred of the Jews that are older than Israel. But once someone has fallen for this demonizing delusion, he will find his anti-Jewish concept of the enemy confirmed in everything that an Israeli government does or fails to do. What is more, those who hold Jews responsible for all the world’s ills will paint the Jewish state as the root of all evil. Following Hamas’s example, they will celebrate or deny the Holocaust, even in Berlin.
Teachers in the German capital are sometimes confronted with Muslim students who expressly use the Holocaust to justify their sympathies for the Nazis (”I like Hitler; he did the right thing with the Jews”), refusing to take part in school trips to concentration camp memorials. During one excursion to the German Historical Museum, a group of Muslim youth gathered in front of a replica of a gas chamber in Auschwitz and applauded.
Can we blame Israel for the mindset that leads to such activities? Perhaps it would be more apt to conclude that the waves of hatred that the Nazis’
short-wave radio transmitter once broadcast into the Arab world are now returning in the form of a delayed echo.
According to the “Muslims in Germany” study, between eight and 12 percent of Muslims hold anti-Western and anti-democratic views. “Attitudes ranging from strongly fundamentalist to openness to Islamism” are found among younger Muslims, according to the study. One of the respondents, the authors write, articulated a “desire for a young political avant-garde,” which, the respondent said, must “take matters into its own hands.”
Following the demise of the socialist bloc and the decimation of protest movements with a secular orientation, such a rebellious impulse does in fact shape the Islamist movement into an anti-Western avant-garde of sorts. As the only adversary of the global world order, it possesses an ideology, a lot of money and supporters worldwide. Advertising for the Islamist cause has used pop culture with as little inhibition as Hamas has unscrupulously resorted to a Hollywood cartoon character to recruit children. Trend-conscious clothing, music and lifestyle advertising bring “street credibility” to the Islamist mission. Online shops, like the Hamas-affiliated portal
Islamicstatewear.(cursed), sell T-shirts with expressly religious messages, like “Islam! Submit!,” “I love my Prophet” and “State University of Mecca,” while musicians like the rapper “Ammar114″ (his name is based on the 114 suras of the Koran) use their raps to promote their version of Islam.
Other Muslim rappers portray themselves as representatives of a “Jihad Generation” and pepper their “intifada rap” with anti-Semitism of the worst kind. “Zyklon
Beatz,” a Berlin rap group, released a CD in 2006 with lyrics describing Jews as animals and demonizing them as devils in human form. Rapper Bushido, who won the prestigious ECHO Music Award in February 2008 and was broadcast live on RTL as Germany’s best hip hop artist, stylizes himself as a Muslim assassin: “I am a Taliban … I am this terrorist young people believe in … I am King Bushido, and my second name is Mohammed. And I have set your city on fire.”
In a rap video placed on the Internet, a Lebanese man living in Berlin chants: “Kill every Jewish pig, the Jahudis are unclean. They should all die and they aren’t worth our tears. Arabs like us rule.” Within a few weeks, his video, which translates Hezbollah’s and Hamas’s universes of hatred into a form more accessible to youth, had provoked hundreds of comments, most of them enthusiastic.
But one criticism of the German-language hip hop scene — that such statements no longer provoke a scandal — also applies to the German public at large. While the anti-Semitism coming from the extremist right wing attracts attention, and for good reason, there is too little awareness of anti-Semitism articulated by Muslims. For some, hatred of Jews is as much a part of the Middle Eastern world as water pipes and mosques. Others say nothing because they see Muslims mainly as victims. Still others gloss over Islamic anti-Semitism as an understandable reaction to the Middle East conflict, while organizations like the Left Party even see potential common ground with the Islamist movement.
In 2003, the German Interior Ministry banned Hizb ut-Tahrir, an Arab anti-Semitic organization, and in 2005 it ordered Yeni
Akit, a Turkish anti-Semitic publishing house, to shut down. And in 2007, the Interior Ministry supported projects to combat anti-Semitism among Muslim youth. But the Foreign Ministry has consistently undermined all of these efforts by accepting the importation of anti-Semitic propaganda through Saudi Arabian and Egyptian satellite broadcasters.
Meanwhile, a rabbit named Assud has replaced Mickey Mouse on Hamas’s children’s program. “Why is your name Assud (lion) if you are a rabbit?” a girl asked in the broadcast on Feb. 8, 2008. “Because I,
Assud, will clean up the Jews and devour them.” The girl nodded in agreement, and said: “May Allah’s will be done.”
Hamburg political scientist Matthias Küntzel, 53, is a member of the board of directors of Scholars for Peace in the Middle East. His recent book “Islamic anti-Semitism and German Politics,” was recently published by LIT
Verlag.
