I can't believe that the Arab fantasia is thought to be appropriate
subject matter for uk.legal!
The following is by Dr Michael Anbar and it's a response to a
PBS "documentary" on antisemitism. PBS seems rather to
have missed some history!
_
The documentary that was aired on January 8th; "Anti-Semitism in the
21st Century: The Resurgence" narrated by Judy Woodruff, examines the
roots of anti-Semitism and how and why it is flourishing today.
What I was missing in this program was the plight of the Jews in
Muslim countries that have driven out 800,000+ Jews from countries,
where they lived for 2000 years; this includes Iraq, Egypt and Yemen.
However, what was even more disturbing to me is the omission of the
fact that the new blood libel against Jews originated in the Islamic
world; in
Damascus, Syria (1840). It was not originated by Nazi Germany or by
Russia. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damascus_affair
The Beilis trial in 1913 took place in Russia 73 years; AFTER the
Damascus affair. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Menahem_Mendel_Beilis
In brief this "documentary," as attractive as it might look, has been
trying systematically to downplay anti-Semitism in the Muslim world,
while accusing Christianity of being the sole origin of Jewish
persecution, in line with Western Islamic apologists.
Let me remind you that the Yellow badge to be worn by Jews was
invented by Muslims in Iraq (in 807!!!) see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow badge Timeline and it was copied
by the Nazis a thousand years later!
Let me also remind you that the concept of cleansing a country from
Jews was initiated and accomplished in Arabia by Mohammad; see:
http://www.dangoor.com/71page33.html#Moha4b (making Arabia Judenrein!)
before the year 700 i.e., 500 years before the expulsion of Jews from
France in 1182 see:
http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/jewish/1182-jewsfrance1.html and from
England in 1290; see:
http://www.heretical.com/British/jews1290.html
So who has learned from whom?
In brief, this program distorts history, exculpating (at least in
part) the Muslims. Consequently, I am not sure at all whether this
program should be promoted as educational material for our kids when
Islam is targeting our people big time, not because they have learned
this from the "nasty" Europeans but because hatred of Jews is
intrinsic in their culture from its inception!
