Now, certainly some Muslims are anti-Jewish, as are some Christians, agnostics, atheists—you get the idea. Simply reading and together illustrates this point:. Thousands of Jews were murdered during the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, and at various times in Europe and Russia. The word ghetto owes its origin to the slums of Venice where Jews lived.
Father Charles Coughlin commanded a weekly radio audience of more than thirty million Americans in the s and openly supported anti-Semitism, Adolf Hitler, and Benito Mussolini.
But after the birth of Islam in the seventh century, Christian theologians came to see both Muslims and Jews as heretics - corrupters of religious truth; or, to put it another way, rivals within the same Abrahamic monotheistic world.
Jews and Muslims were regarded in similar fashion as obstinate, law-loving rejectors of Christ. In an era in which theology and ideas of temporal power were intrinsically linked, the perceived religious competition between Judaism, Islam, and, indeed, different forms of Christianity, was understood as a struggle for political authority. Of course, the idea of Islam as an enemy of Christendom was not confined to theology.
With the rise of the Islamic empires, the Ottoman expansion into Europe and their capture of Constantinople, the Eastern Christian capital, in , the military threat was quite real. Yet theology was the underlying source of the potency of the Christian fear of the Jew and the Muslim as existential enemies. The conjoining of the Jew and the Arab Muslim in the European mind was made most explicit in the idea of "the Semites.
The creation of the term belonged to the scientific endeavor to classify human groups according to linguistic-racial characteristics. But the story of the Semites was not secular. The term derived from the name Sem, the Latin for Shem, who, according to the Book of Genesis, was one of the sons of Noah, and the ancestor of Abraham. The descendants of Sem were thought to inhabit the desert lands of Western Asia, and included both Arabs and Jews.
The Sem-ites were, according to the story, separate from the children of Japhet, who, many thought, became the peoples of Europe. Islam did not - and does not - hold the same significance for the Christian West. Hence, within the notion of the Semites there was a fundamental imbalance, which made the idea of the Jewish-Muslim bond inherently vulnerable, if put under strain. This eventually happened, of course, with the conflict over Israel-Palestine that erupted in the 20th century.
At this point, the idea of the Semites began to fall from grace. And the people that selected him were rich, powerful members of the Jewish community. They selected him to be their first Jewish president. These bankers know that only in war will America have to borrow money… This is why they were upset with Jack Kennedy, he wanted to come out of Vietnam. And they killed him, I believe. They got informants in the ranks of W. Mohammed, they got informants in the ranks of our brother Silis Muhammad, they got informants in the ranks of all Muslim 17 groups, they got informants among nationalists, they got informants in the NAACP, the Urban League, they got informants in the church.
This is real. And you know what they want to do? Her daughter is about to marry a Jewish young man. This is no accident. Half the opinion making and taste-influential paraphernalia is in Jewish hands. Can you deny that? Who got her? The international bankers. The synagogue of Satan. Who is running Johannesburg and the gold mines and Kimberley and the diamond mines. Because they run the industry. I know the truth. And somebody gotta tell it or die trying.
He wants to write a new page for the Muslim world but the Zionists won't let him. I hate that you would say that. Now, there are certain members of the Zionist faction of Jews that have always wanted to control the means by which your crucifixion could take place.
You notice how everyone that got crucified got first crucified in the media. However, the Zionists have worked their way into control in America, Britain, France, Germany and other countries of the world. These are the Hollywood Jews, who say they are Jews but they are not, and until the true Jew points the finger at the false Jew, the false Jew will make the true Jew look bad. It's wicked Jews, false Jews that make it a crime for you to preach the word of God, then they call you homophobic!
You better get rid of them neo cons. That's the synagogue of Satan. They have made America weak. You're a weak nation now, and your country has been taken from you by the synagogue of Satan. They own congress. That's why the congress ain't right. Now, what do you mean by that, Mr. And there are some Orthodox Jews who share that view. Both of them talking the same thing.
They control Black intellectuals, they control Black politicians, Black preachers, Black artists — they control Black life. Don't be afraid of their power, Mr. Stop bowing down.
No one asks why they would do such a thing. Why would they do such a thing? What has driven them to this point? That's what the UN, the U. You say Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. Yes, they did, but what were the forces that created in Japan the desire or the need to force them to attack America?
You don't know that. But when America went to war after the attack on Pearl Harbor, she had to borrow money. There were the international bankers again. They financed all sides. And how many millions of Americans lost their lives? Suppose Hitler was trying to destroy the international bankers controlling Europe, but he went about it by attacking a whole people. All Jews are not responsible for the evil of the few who do evil. But certain Jews have used Judaism as a shield.
There will be no penalty. You can curse God and there will be no penalty. And in some European countries you can go to jail for such. I know something happened in Nazi Germany, and if it's one million, two million, three million; it's one million, two million, three million too many.
But to deny a person the right to challenge your articulation of numbers and to put you in jail if you deny aspects of the Holocaust You can't speak about Jews. You can't criticize Jews.
If you do, you're an anti-Semite. We know something happened, sure, but you can't talk about it. In certain cities in Europe they arrest you and put you in prison for denying such. They thought they could trust in Hitler, and they helped him get the Third Reich on the road. International bankers financed Hitler and poor Jews died while big Jews were at the root of what you call the Holocaust Little Jews died while big Jews made money.
Little Jews [were] being turned into soap while big Jews washed themselves with it. Jews [were] playing violin, Jews [were] playing music, while other Jews [were] marching into the gas chambers They owned slave ships, they bought and sold us. They raped and robbed us.
Where did you go? Went into the Caribbean. Went into South America and you became plantation owners. My passion is for truth and justice. But no Jewish person who will be brave enough to read your history will come away saying your hands are cleaned. He put out this book. What have I done? I told the truth about Jewish involvement in the slave trade. Your own writers say the same thing. Well, if they're not anti-Semitic for writing it, how the hell am I anti-Semitic for reading what they wrote and then saying it?
I didn't write your history, you wrote it. And then the sad thing, when you confront them with what their scholars have said, they say, 'Well is this part of the old conspiracy talk? You are settlers on our land.
You came out of Khazar. Congress is controlled by the Israel lobby, and it also sentences America to war with Iran for the State of Israel. I read she's trying to bomb Iran before the election to make it very difficult for Obama to be reelected if he doesn't fall in line with the rest of the warmongers that Netanyahu has more control over than the president of the United States And if America bombs Iran you can't look for our support.
I wouldn't ask one American to go die for Israel. Now you that say that they're the chosen of God, you go die for them! But we know who the chosen of God are, and we've been saying it, and we will debate any scholar about that question. You have locked onto the Zionist control of your government, your media, and you're afraid to stand up because if you do, they'll tell you, you won't be reelected.
For 20 years or more, the Sudan was in the civil war and it started because Israel wanted to create a war in southern and northern Sudan to divert Egypt to come to the defense of the Sudan to take pressure away from Egypt attacking Israel. They speak Hebrew, they speak Arabic. But where did these white people, called Ashkenazi Jews, come from?
See, there was some European Jews that got converted to Judaism and from them came the Zionist movement. The Zionist movement did not start in Palestine, it started in Europe. And then in the newly formed United Nations decided to give the Jews who were suffering under Hitler a state in Palestine.
And that started the wars with the Arab people. But they got it from the book. Mistaken understanding of the book and you gonna pay for your error.
And there's not a vote that the pro-Israeli lobby wants that doesn't get bipartisan support. Because the Israeli lobby controls the government of the United States of America. They drop phosphorous bombs. They drop depleted uranium, dirty bombs. They used new weapons that have never been used in a theater of war before, they tried them out on the Palestinians. They killed men, women, children.
You expect us to say, 'wait a minute, you do not kill innocent people for political purposes. But we don't hear you correcting your brothers because what they're doing is creating hatred for Israel and hatred for America that looks the other way while the Palestinians are being slaughtered. You better get rid of them neocons. Iraq was not an enemy of America as such; Iraq could not do anything to America, Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Libya hated the fact that Israel took land from the Palestinians, so these countries were an inveterate enemy of Israel.
The neo-conservatives who manipulate the government are like the rudder of a ship. The rudder is a small thing, but it turns a big ship in the ocean. The rudder that is turning America is not your elected officials; it's that small influential group of neo-conservatives that are using America's power to destroy the enemies of Israel.
The former Prime Minister, Netanyahu, before the war in Iraq, was patrolling the halls of congress lobbying American senators to send our children to die really for Israel. And the neoconservative idea was to bring Bush totally in line with the ideas, the thinking, the policies of the Likud party in Israel. But Israel has never been asked to disarm. That is why, Saddam Hussein having weapons of mass destruction will force Israel to a table to bring about a resolve of the problem. See our other FREE newsletters.
