From our It's Just A Nationalistic Struggle Department comes this from the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting News page (thanks to Twostellas):
A huge crowd of Malaysian Muslims on Friday burnt a Zionist regime's flag and an effigy of American President George W Bush during protests over Zionists' atrocities in Gaza.The ralliers marched from a mosque after Friday Prayers to the British high commission and then to America's embassy, both in the heart of Kuala Lumpur.
They shouted "Long Live Islam", "Down With 'Israel'" and "Down With Infidels" before setting the Bush effigy and flag on fire in front of America's embassy, which was heavily guarded by Malaysian police and two water cannon trucks.
"We are protesting about the massacre by the 'Israelis' on the Palestinians," said Abdullah Abdul Karim. "They have arrested Palestinian ministers, they are bombing them. It's a violation of democratic principles," he told reporters.
Yes, and those democratic principles are obviously so very dear to Hamas.
Re: Malaysian Muslims protest Zionists
How come these guys never protest the Arab-Muslim extermination of Negro Africans in Darfur?
Wouldn't it be grand if the "Palestinians" were evicted from the West Bank and Gaza and the Israelis airlifted the Africans to the West Bank and Gaza? The Israelis would get good neighbors, the Africans would find safety from death, starvation or dhimmi status-and the "Palestinians" would be free to follow their destiny in Darfur.
(BTW, CAIR should be very concerned with Islamaphobia in Darfur. I'm sure (any day now)they will be coming out with lapel buttons that say, "End Islamaphobia in Darfur".)
If non-Arab Muslims could have brought home to them the real nature of Islam as the "Arab National Religion" (as Anwar Shaikh titled one of his books), and realized that within the universalist claims is justification and promotion of the most successful imperialism in history, that of Arab imperialism -- linguistic, cultural, and political -- for which Islam serves as a vehicle.
What do Malaysians have to do with Jews rebuilding their commonwealth on land they scrupulously bought, or inherited (the state and waste lands, which make up nearly 90% of the total) lands that had passed from the Ottomans to the government of Mandatory Palestine, which was set up by the League of Nations for the express purpose of establishing a Jewish National Home -- leading naturally to a state, the state of Israel.
Why are Malaysians agitating on behalf of the local Arabs who were carefuly renamed, after the Six-Day War, the "Palestinian people" (do the damn research yourself -- try to find in any of the U.N. records, or anywhre else, a single mention by a single Arab of the "Palestinian people" before the Six-Day War, and then ask yourself why)? Why should non-Arab Muslims, the Turks or the Iranians, or for that matter the Malaysians (at least one Malaysian intellectual has complained about the growing arabization of Malaysia), become little Arabs, assuming Arab names or lineages or dress or anything? What an act of self-humiliation, civilizational immolation? Why should this be endured? And why should non-Arabs upon whom Islam was foisted any longer endure the natural suspicion and hostility that all Muslims will, and rightly, feel from an aroused Infidel world? Why not give up on Islam, the "Arab National Religion," or at least attempt to create a non-Arab version that will throw out all the parts of it (the dhimmi status for non-Muslims, the duty to participate in the Jihad so as conquer Dar al-harb and incorporate it into Dar al-Islam) that were obviously created to justify and promote conquest by the Arabs of richer, more advanced, more settled communities of Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians.
Why should Malaysians, who clearly no nothing about the Jewish connection to "Palestine," and nothing about the invention of the "Palestinian people" so as to exploit the naivete of so many in assuming "hmm, there's 'Palestine' and over here are some people called the 'Palestinian people' so I guess the place nmust belong to them. Case closed." It is that shallow and that effective.
Why, as Islam is being studied -- or investigated-- by Infidels who can now read for themselves what Islam inculcates in Qur'an and Hadith, and find out for themselves what Muhammad did and said and when he was silent, and are unlikely to share the Muslim belief in the sheer wonderfulness of Muhammad. Quite the contrary.
One can understand why some Arabs who see right through Islam nonetheless, out of an identification with "Uruba" or "Arabness," and a civlizational piety -- after all, if Islam is not so wonderful, then the value of that Islam as the "gift of the Arabs" to the world is called into question, and so are the givers-- refuse to distance themselves or express to Infidels, or in public at all, their doubts about Islam.
But nothing should stop those whose ancestors were converted, either by force or by compulsion of another kind -- that is, forcing non-Muslims to endure a status of humiliation, degradation, and physical insecurity until, over time, a great many converted (most of the Muslims in Pakistan and Bangladesh and India itself are surely the descendants of Hindus or in some cases, Buddhists or Jains, who could not stand the oppression inflicted by the Muslim rulers).
"Death to Infidels"? "Death to America"? "Death to Israel"? What puppets of Arab marionettes, reaching and manipuating more than a thousand years beyond the grave, to make these Malaysians dance to an Arab belief-system's tune.
How embarrassed, how humiliated, they should feel, those non-Arab Muslims. Some must.
Stop the Islamaphobia in Darfur
http://www.darfurgenocide.org/darfur.php
"But nothing should stop those whose ancestors were converted, either by force or by compulsion of another kind --"
Most of these converts became muslims to save their womenfolk from a fate that was worse than death. Rape, torture, and a slow death. A newspaper here carried an interview of a muslim who actually remembered his grandfather's Hindu surname and the fact why he converted as stated above. His picture was that of a complete rabid, beard, cap, wild eyes et al. The last question reporter asked him was "Since you know you were a Hindu, would you like to convert again ?". The reply was, "Never ! Our family is loyal to the prophet".
Escaping from a brainwashing death cult is not easy.

Jews have always been the scapegoat over the centuries, and continue today most ferociously by the Arab muslim. Jews are the modern "whipping boy" of a failed state-religion of the Muslim world. when the immans get the crowd all whipped up over Jews, they take the heat away from their own failures. this was used by the Nazis with Hilter's guidance. you have to ask why all this hate towards a very small number of people whose religion has been the backbone of Christianity, and later taken over by the Muslims. I personally think the Jewish religion because they call themselves the "Chosen People", they do not go out and try to convert other people, this can be seen as brash, and having too much ego.
Muslims being insecure and contant victims in their own minds, cannot stand the Jewish religion. l have always admired Jews, because they never went out and
tried to convert you. This point is very powerful of a confident people and a strong reason why they are resented by the Arabs.
Hugh: I am glad you used the term "Malaysian intellectual".
There are many such people, mostly of non-Malay (i.e. Indian or Chinese) origins.
However, the words "Malay" (or Muslim) and "intellectual" are mutually exclusive, more of an oxymoron!
Hugh wrote, "How embarrassed, how humiliated, they should feel, those non-Arab Muslims."
They probably do feel embarrassed and humiliated. If they voice their embarrassment and humiliation, they will also soon feel quite dead. That alone is enough to make them toe the line.
Hugh-
Re:...(most of the Muslims in Pakistan and Bangladesh and India itself are surely the descendants of Hindus or in some cases, Buddhists or Jains, who could not stand the oppression inflicted by the Muslim rulers).
Humans are sometimes mysterious in how they react to abusers. Police officers often see this in domestic violence situations where the abused woman turns on the officers when they attempt to arrest a wife-beater.
Here you describe a kind of collective Stockholm Syndrome that not only accepts the killing of Hindu, Buddhist or Jain cultural roots but then identifies with those who destroyed their collective memory-making them bow down in submission to Arab Mecca. It's mysterious. But maybe the collective amnesia will pass someday.
http://www.mental-health-matters.com/articles/article.php?artID=469
I don't have the numbers, but in Pakistan and Bangladesh, a good number of them are descendent from Afghan or Turkish invaders of India; some may even be Farsi. However, those in Pakistan who claim to be Syeds are probably making false claims - although the Arabs briefly occupied Sind in the 8th century, their presense there didn't last, so it's unlikely any of their descendents are still around.
On the very article itself, the very spectacle of non-Arab Muslims agitating against Israel is laughable; even Arab Muslims agitating on behalf of the "Palestinians" is ludicrous, when one considers how those people are treated in Arab countries, such as Kuwait in 1991.
Probably many of you are too young to remember it, but this sort of "spontaneous" but well-rehearsed mass demonstration was a regular hallmark of the cold war in all communist and pro-communist countries and yet no one in charge here( ie our "leaders") seems to notice the comparison.
In those days such a demonstration would immediately label them as communist or procommunist and they would be sent to Coventry
economically, politically and militarily.
Now we rush over to give them...more billions of aid. Do they appreciate it? What!!!! You have to be joking !! We are kafir it is their right!!
What ever happened to political insight and perspicacity?
Perhaps it is blinded by oil money.
My theory:
The European-Jewish relationship is fundamentally differnent than the Arab-Jewish relationship.
At the time of the conflicts(France~1200; Germany~1400; Misc Eastern Europe Until 1900), the friction was between farmers with numbers and Jews with money. Not a good bet with for the guys with concentrated wealth.
Today's friction is about a group with intelligence, resources, and resolve against a religion obsessed with their successful defence of a disputed piece of land.
quote:"Today's friction is about a group with intelligence, resources, and resolve against a religion obsessed with their successful defence of a disputed piece of land"
The only dispute is that of the Muslims who refuse to see Israel as having a right to exist and who will NEVER acept Israel until starvation or brute force forces them to do so. Then it will go underground like a stream and simmer ( bad!!) for another century or two then burst out again and flood the world with their violence and their epraved lunacy.
You cannot trust them, you cannot talk to them , you cannot reason with them, they never forget, they never give up.
They will ONLY be satisfied with the extermination of every Israeli and the total destruction of the state of Israel.
Augustus was correct, there is only ONE solution to a situation like this and a people like this
and it does not entail talking to them or giving them aid.
Why are the southern Thailand Muslims fighting the native religious groups? There are no Jews in the Thai region.
Why are Phillipine Island Muslims fighting?
Any Jews in that locale?
Why are the Sudanese Muslims fighting?
Where the hell are the Jews in Sudan?
How about the Shi'ite versus Sunni violence in Iraq?
Not a Jew in that entire battle.
The amazing lack of Zionists in every other warring Islamic zone is uncanny.
I thought it was all about the Jews and the poor, oppressed "Palestinians"?
If only the Israeli Hebrews would all move out and into to an enclave in Europe, all would become peaceful within Muslim world, I've been told. By Islamic spokesmen and Cindy Sheehan and neo-Nazis everywhere.
What gives with all of the non-Zionist-related Muslim warfare?
You'd think there was something inherently violent about Islam, itself.
But that just can't be. Not according to professional pooh-pooh-ers everywhere, from Cathy Young to CAIR to Condoleeza Rice to Sean Penn.
I sure hope Theo Van Gogh can answer this.
Oh, wait, a Muslim guy killed him in Amsterdam.
What's up with that?
I am reminded of a white American convert I once had the displeasure of knowing, and a conversation we once had. His wife was Malaysian and he lived there for a few years. I once asked him why he didn't stay there, since he constantly condemd America. His answer still shocks me. He said: " I wouldn't live in Malaysia because the Jews are so in control of everthing there." I figured he must mean the industrious Chinese and Indians that local Malays live off like parisites, but he meant real Jews as in Isrealis. He spent next half hour trying to covince me that Jews run the banks and stock markets there, and are going out of their way to control Muslims in Malaysia. He said its all there in, "The Protocols of the Elders of Zionism." I am sure this book is widely read there like the rest of the Muslim world. Anyway, this man did leave the states after September 11, 2001 to live with kindred spirts in the Islamic utopia of Saudi Arabia. He once told me that his wife hasnt left the house in two months, so I know he will fit right in.
Not altogether surprising if you read the koranic garbage that they have literally bashed into them and then have it constantly reinforced by the local imam as well as by their own equally indoctrinated family. Even you could believe that your mother was the devil incarnate with this degree of brainwashing.
This is not meant to be insulting to you or your mother but is the true measure of 1400 years of lies which dominate all of their thinking and all of their propaganda and all of their false and highly organised pseudohistory.
As a serviceman you have been taught just how relentless and insidious has been brainwashing by communists. Well that palls totally compared to the same thing done to ANYONE since the day that they were born. You can only survive this world as a norm if the information you are given is in keeping with reality. Warp this information and behaviour that could be considered abnormal and psychotic becomes the norm.
Muslims are nothing but the indoctrinated product of 1400 years of lies and paranoia and as such are a plague upon mankind and should be dealt with accordingly. Like all plagues the wellbeing of the vector is immaterial and in fact represents the target of choice. All IMHO and not that of JW/DW I add.
The Malays are lazy good-for-nothings. Any Malays out there? Probably too dumb to be on the internet. Seriously, a bunch of good for nothing dummies. Human Rubbish. Like the Indonesians. As idle as they are mendacious. Islam is perfect for them. The ultimate cop-out for dishonest selfish ne'er-do-wells. They rigged the state for special treatment for 30 years ( the so-called bumi-putra 'son-of-the-soil' policy ) and even that was not enough.
I travelled to Malaysia as a young student in September 1991, and part of out tour involved staying with students at a school in northern peninsula Malaysia. We got talking, and eventually we got round to the subject of the Gulf war. I asked the students what they thought of Bush. They replied in no uncertain terms they hated him. Puzzled, I asked why, as surely the liberation of another state after an unprovoked act of aggression was a good thing. No, they replied, Bush was a b@stard and Saddam was a hero. End of story.
I should have realised then that there was trouble on the horizon, but it would be exactly 10 years later when the towers fell.
Now, has anyone seen the Islam Expo? There is a website at http://islamexpo.info/
The site suggests there is a £15 entrance fee, and I think thats a bit steep. Admittedly, I am curious as to what is displayed... given its on only from 6-9 July I havent much time left if I want to see it.
Has anyone else seen the exhibition? If I went in I would probably cause trouble, asking the organisers why they overlooked Mohammed's treatment of the three Jewish tribes (they voluntarily left, I suppose), how to correctly interpret sura 9:29 (its a minor part of the Koran, I have been told), as a dhimmi whether i should pay jizya (u paid £15 to come in, didn't you?), and why o why do so many suicide bombers constantly refer to multiple verses in the Koran as justification for what they are doing? (extremist interpretation, I suppose).
If anyone has seen the exhibition and can recommend it then please let me know!
Many thanks
While I can agree that any prosperity in Indonesia or Malaysia has almost nothing to do with the ethnic malaysians or Indonesians, you have to separate them from their arab sourced brainwashing.
To see what I mean, just look at the Balinese Balinese who are the same stock but unpolluted by any Islamic filth. That is, until recently where islamic immigration is state policy and the whole wonderful and unique aura of Bali is slowly submerging under the rule of the tyrant Muhammad. This was what the Indonesians and eh malaysian were like before arab pirates forced their filthy selves upon the archipelago bringing the plague of Islam.
I am so tired of these people complaining about something that doesn't concern them. They are on the other side of the world. There is so much suffering in other remote parts of the world they don't care about. There is so much suffering in their own backyard they don't care about. I am tired of the lie that they are pro palestinian not because they are muslim but they have compassion for people suffering. I just love when they say "we would feel compassion for anyone regardless of religion" yet they prove this lie wrong ever day and every moment of their existence. The truth is these savages hate all kafir's and infidels. They want us all dead and the liberal MSM gives them a rallying point.
The exhibition has been discussed hee quite a lot ans like almost all islamic history of any nature is mostly rubbish.
My particualr love was the story ofthe first man to fly who leaped from a mosque with wings covered in koranic sura written in arabic.
They said he landed successfully. But was he alive? Answers on a postage stamp plse.
American_soldier
This is not unusual. A past head of Malaysia, Dr Mahatir, often said things along similar lines.
"The Jews control everything" type of comment.
He said Jews were smart because they get everyone to fight for them. I can't think of one occasion,,can anyone? Hugh? And I don't mean foreign aid from the US here.
This has always amused me as I think of people like Rupert Murdoch who controls a lot of the press, but isn't Jewish. I think of the influence of Bill Gates on all of us and he sure isn't Jewish either.Bush isn't Jewish, Blair isn't, Chirac isn't,,I could go on,,,,
Then I think of the Saudi's and the billion, and counting, they make every day from oil and their influence all over the world via oil, and I KNOW they are not Jewsih,lol!
This reminds me a little of the cartoon fiasco.
The ability to jump up and down on demand. I bet half of the malays haven't heard of Israel.I wonder who is pulling the strings here?
Lulu, I liked your post a lot because it is spot on.
Now the MSM is saying the Pallys are being treated severely.
Hello?? Who went into sovreign Israeli territory and kidnapped the poor soldier?
Who has fired rockets daily into Israel since Gaza was handed over last year?
They are always implying that more pallys are killed than Israeli's. It is a good line, isn' it?
So the Pally's have the high moral ground here because they have suffered more deaths which they really like anyway?
Well, to put it simply, they have a long way to go to catch up to 6 million,IMHO. I do not think this is a red herring as many in the MSM state.
Israel was born from the ashes of the holocaust.."never again" the remaining Jewish people said. Perhaps the pallys should blame Hitler for their troubles?
Ok,ok, I forget. They have lost the ability to think logically.
Limes
there are other factors at play here:
Jews had to resort to money lending for many centuries as they were barred from universities and many other trades right up till WW2. Hence this was one thing they could do. I doubt Jewish farmers back then had much money.
Also, I do believe there was resentment of them at the time of Richard the Lionheat. Most of his ransom was raised by the Jews of England. He was a bit of an anti-semite himself.
However, let's move on. Shame he didn't defeat the muslims hordes: unforgivable! It would have saved us all a lot of bother.

Gramfan...if I do recall correctly(always a risk :)) jews were forbidden to enter the professions and to own property in medieval times in western countries.
Thus the role of moneylending was forced upon them as was the role of the small businessman renting a property.
However the one distinct advantage of being a moneylender was the fact that when the ubiquitous pogrom occured it was considerably easier to pack your wares and escape whereas the small business if he did escape did so usually with little stock.
This the origin of the Shylock myth (all jews are mercenary thieves) was forced upon them by the restrictions upon jews in both western states as well as islamic states. In fact, if they paid the jizaya without any problems they were allowed to entert the professions in islamic states but this always was dependent upon the goodwill of the current ruler who could change his mind within minutes.
The whole thing is TOO ridiculous.Are we supposed to go around burning flags,rioting, throwing petrol bombs etc BECAUSE WE DON'T LIKE A CERTAIN
COUNTRY OR THE POLICIES OF A HOST NATION?
In that case Serbs should be shrieking hate posters,hurling grenades,trying to blow up targets in the U.S and other Nato countries BECAUSE THEY WERE BOMBED AND DRIVEN OUT OF KOSOVO.
Japanese suicide bombers would be doing it BECAUSE OF HOROSHIMA & NAGASAKI.
Vietamese would be doing it BECAUSE OF THE WAR...
But no, they don't. No one is as crazy as brainwashed Muslims! THESE ARE THE 'ETERNAL VICTIMS' OF THEIR CONTROLLING CLERICS AND A STONE AGE DEATH CULT.
Zathras.
Yes,, I was under the same impression!
I also know some elderly Jewish people who were not allowed to study pre WW2 in some European countries.
And what is even more "amusing" is these same friends of mine were told:
"Go back to Palestine where you belong!!"
(this happened in Hungary and Poland for sure: maybe other places also.)
My memory is great - my recall isn't that fantastic so I understand you well.
Are we both baby boomers?

Hugh, I am amazed at how clearly you constantly put things, I love reading what you have to say, it is exactly what I feel yet because of my dyslexia (or lisdexia eheheh I sometimes dont get it out as well)
I don't understand these animals, since the return of the Jews to Israel Muslims have continually year after year gone into Israel and bombed thousands of people including babies, children, women yet the media has said nothing,,but when Israel eventually got fed up with the constant destruction of their homes, business and people and retaliates, not only has the media told the world how terrible Israel was and still is, but the Media and the Muslim world say that it is Israel who is committing atrocities against them. Israel just wants to live in peace and for good reason, not only does their Tora tell them to do so but they are surrounded by millions of ferocious Arabs who want them dead and who want their now wonderful land, so as they can put it back into the dark ages. Anyone with half a brain should be able to see that as a tiny little nation of about 7 million people (of which is made up of about a couple of million Arabs and Muslims who don't want to leave Israel), that these people would have to be stark raven mad to pick a fight with the billions of Arabs who surround them... yet it appears that the media and a huge percentage of the world ARE stark raving mad as they blame this tiny little country for all the problems in the Middle East...Come on world, wake up...
Surely the world can see that Muslims throughout the world cause trouble and are slaughting tens of thousands of non muslims every year in different countries, and that once their numbers have grown to become a force that they rape and terrorise in the countries of their adoption, not other religions or races, just Muslims...
What makes the world and the media stick up for the people who want to kill them.
What amazes me is that now some countries are retaliating against years of problems from Muslims, their leaders and clerics tell their people that the world is against them that the people of the world are doing terrible things to them. Perhaps it is to arouse their people to fight....
We need a vigorous birth control program for the Muslim world before they overwhelm us. Any country receiving UN aid should have mandatory sterilization until they get into 21st century
Zathras, Gramfan;
Thanks for the feedback. However, is it not probable that resentment of the masses against a minority with relative wealth would lead to exclusion from paths to additional success (the opposite of affirmative action in a less compassionate time)?
In any case, societal pressures have created a people who are well-adapted to their current situation on the front lines. They deserve our full support.
limes...very appropriate nameL our line of defence against the barbarian hordes
Your quote:"However, is it not probable that resentment of the masses against a minority with relative wealth would lead to exclusion from paths to additional success (the opposite of affirmative action in a less compassionate time)?"
You are quite correct.This would have served to both amplify and imprint more deeply the already inbuilt cultural hostility and it is a tribute to the resilience and the durability of the jews that ANY of them survived this.
Gramfan ..my apologies for being so apparently rude..no I am not a baby boomer.
