Of course, of course. We should know by now that everything is a Zionist plot to defame Islam. "Political motives behind anti-Islam campaign - Egypt''s Al-Azhar," from KUNA, January 24 (thanks to JCB):
CAIRO, Jan 24 (KUNA) -- The Grand Sheikh of Al-Azhar Dr. Ahmad Al-Tayyeb said Monday the defamation campaign targeting Islam in the West is politically motivated.
"The campaign spearheaded by western media moguls aims to promote unfair stereotypes about Islam in contradictions of the true Islamic values of tolerance and moderation being advocated by Al-Azhar," a statement issued by Al-Azhar Sheikhdom quoted him as saying.
This is the same al-Azhar that just cut ties with the Vatican because the Pope dared to call attention to and condemn attacks on Christians in the Middle East. If this sort of behavior, together with regular doses of conspiracy paranoia, constitutes the model for "tolerance" and "moderation," well, there's our problem.
Al-Tayyeb made the remarks during his meeting here with a delegation from the US Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).
"Muslims have a long history of friendly relations with non-Muslims over the last 14 centuries," he noted.
Dr. Al-Tayyeb decried "the malicious" western plans aiming to fragment the Arab world, citing as examples the situations in Iraq, Sudan and Lebanon as well as the Maghreb countries.
He also condemned strongly the purported plots to divide Egypt, "the world's oldest country with coherent society," into three Muslim, Christian and Noban [sic] states.
"There is a Zionist plot aiming to defragment [sic] the Arab world with a view to posing Israel as the sole dominant power in the Middle East," he stressed.
Acknowledging that there are "wise voices" in the west, the grand sheikh said these voices are "less loud and less influential" than the hostile ones.
Meanwhile, he briefed his guests on the educational system of Al-Azhar University as well as the efforts being made to modernize the prestigious institutions.
Boola Boola, Allahu akbar:
A group of students from Yale University are studying Arabic and Islamic sciences at Al-Azhar University for a full semester, he told his guests noting that it is a priority for his institution to strengthen national unity, strengthen the coherence of the social texture of Egypt and promote peace worldwide.
"Muslims have a long history of friendly relations with non-Muslims over the last 14 centuries," he noted.
Gag me with a spoon!

The more you pay attention to Muslims the easier it is to spot the truth about Islam and the hypocricy that is inherent to the religion of the pious followers of Islam...Muslims continue to provide copious amounts of evidence that they often lie to promote whatever the agenda of day is....but their actions serve to display what their true intentions are...
Ole al-Azar is but one example...and there are many...that Muslims will try and say anything ...even lie ...to give the false impression that Islam is a religion of peace that means no harm to non-believers....
The Islam in the Muslims will surface when they feel confident to display it...and it is ugly....

He said the Committee on Cutlery will issue its first preliminary report sometime next year with the recommendation that forks and knives be introduced in Egyptian restaurants though he admitted that some imams are objecting because this is not considered Islamic. "In our culture knives are used for killing kuffirs, not for eating. This is an acculturation issue which probably can be resolved over the next 100 to 150 years."
the audacity of lying with a straight face must be token gift from their allah. l think these islamists are pissed that we in the West are able to understand how islam operates and is not peaceful!
>"Muslims have a long history of friendly relations with non-Muslims over the last 14 centuries," he noted."
This is taqiyya par excellence!!! How can he make a statement like this with a straight face is beyond anybody imagination but then when Muslims lie day and day out, it comes naturally!!!
""There is a Zionist plot aiming to defragment [sic] the Arab world with a view to posing Israel as the sole dominant power in the Middle East," he stressed."
Well, well... at least he acknowledged Israel is a very powerful COUNTRY in the Middle East. Moslums as brain-retarded as any one can get they are, nonetheless there is a revelation to acknowledge that Israel is a reality.
I wonder who would they blame if Israel wasn't there? Dumb Q... it would be our fault, or the British or the monkeys, the apes, the dogs, the eagles, that worm hiding away underneath the soil .... that is where Islam stands in 21st century. Way to go Mohamedies... you call others apes, monkeys or what have you. As they say it takes one to know one...
A group of students from Yale University are studying Arabic and Islamic sciences at Al-Azhar University for a full semester.
These students being from Yale, I already know that they're incapable of and disinterested in critical thinking. But if they were, if, they might axe their Moslem professors just exactly what these so-called Islamic sciences are.
Perhaps something akin to Scientific Socialism?
No doubt the "Grand Sheikh of Al-Azhar" would prattle on endlessly answering that one, and of course be able to loop in how Infidels are the root cause of all problems besetting Dar al-Islam.
"The campaign spearheaded by western media moguls aims to promote unfair stereotypes about Islam in contradictions of the true Islamic values of tolerance and moderation being advocated by Al-Azhar,"
He apparently doesn't read the New York Times, the Washington Post, AP, Rueters, the BBC, AFP, or watch the network news. The truth is the exact opposite of what he's saying, that our media moguls bend over backwards in a conscious attempt to exonerate Islam from the daily, religiously-motivated atrocities perpetrated by Muslims.
Blame shifting, islamic style ...
A conspiracy to defame Islam? Hardly necessary - what the Muslim world is witnessing are the consequences of two big PR problems besides all the killing done in the world by Muslims:
(1) The Quran & hadiths have long been translated into Western languages, and
(2) A lot of people in the West can read!
It aint a conspiracy.
Followers of Moonbat should only be entrusted with plastic cutlery.
Grand Sheikh of Al-Azhar complains of "Zionist plot" to defame Islam, divide Arab world
...............................
Yes, of course—anything that makes Islam "look bad" is surely a "Zionist plot". The idea that we might, quite independently of the "perfidious Jooooooooos", have any issues with having our airliners hijacked and flown into some of our most renowned buildings, or that we might be upset at the prospect of peaceful worshippers being blown to bits in their own churches, doesn't seem credible to them at all.
More:
"Muslims have a long history of friendly relations with non-Muslims over the last 14 centuries," he noted.
...............................
Translation: "we haven't killed them all yet!"—really, what more could you dhimmis really ask for? sarc/off
Right! And let's not forget that good 'ole Al-Azhar as well as several "prominent universities" in Riyadh still teach...still teach what?
Geocentric Astronomy
Muslims have a long history of friendly relations with non-Muslims over the last 14 centuries.
Clearly a wicked jihadi plot to make us all die laughing.
Dear Grand Sheikh, Islam is falling apart.
There is no other explanation.
the US Council on Foreign Relations (CFR).
ugh? WTF?
Another evil organitzation in the sight.
When the Grand Sheikh referred to "Western media moguls" he meant Robert Spencer and Pamela Geller. If he had said "the campaign against Islam spearheaded by Spencer and Geller" it would have lacked the desired grandiosity.
When the Grand Sheikh said there is a plot to pose Israel as the sole dominant power in the Middle East, it was his way to slyly deny the obvious reality that Israel already is the sole dominant power in the Middle East.
The Grand Sheikh opening his remarks saying there's been 1400 years of friendly relations with non-muslims is the verbal equivalent of kicking your opponent in the groin when he's just standing there not paying attention, ie "cold-cocking".
"A group of students from Yale University are studying Arabic and Islamic sciences at Al-Azhar University",
hey, perhaps they'll meet up with our friend Moustafa Zayed who is a member of the Scientific Board of Quran and Sunnah Research of Cairo.
According to him (in 'The Lies about Muhammad') an old twisted mummy is "Moses' Pharaoh; notice the stiffness of the left hand raised with the shield to protect him from the falling mountain of water."
"Muslims have a long history of friendly relations with non-Muslims over the last 14 centuries," he noted.
MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!
Nobody can defame Islam, They're quite capable of doing it themselves on a daily basis.
"There is a Zionist plot aiming to defragment [sic] the Arab world with a view to posing Israel as the sole dominant power in the Middle East," he stressed
This amazes me that a small non-mulim country completely surrounded by muslim countries is being seen as the sole dominant power in the Middle East. You have to be kidding me. Israel just wants to exist as a peaceful nation but statements like this is so typical of these clowns.
Peter, I'm laughing right with you HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! That is the most ridiculous hilarious thing I have heard in a looooooonnnnnng time HAHAHAHA I'm only 30 but wish i would have put some depends on today hahahahahaha I just peed myself!!! I mean how could he say something so off the wall with a straight face???? Friendly to non muslims for 14 centuries???? It's amazing how so many muslims are just like their false disgusting prophet, do and say the most vile repulsive things.
And the Ayatollah Khomeini said "There is no fun in Islam".
Surely he was joking.
This "Islamic University" is better than Comedy Central.
As Al-Seinfeld would say: "That's gold, Jerry, gold!"
Al Azhar is a big main HIDDEN place where so many terrorists and fanatics learned HATE and all the madness stuff in it.
Al Al-Tayyeb himself is a fanatic one. He insults Christianity many times in the Egyptian governmental TV.
I think its the time to close Al Azhar or to change what it teaches to his people.Its an international big school for hate.
you have to watch that video
its what muslims actually believe and they will not tell you.

...............................
Actually, Bhobby, I think he meant what he said. While anti-Jihadsts like ourselves are terribly frustrated at the "political correctness", obfuscations and deliberate whitewashing regularly indulged in vis-a-vis Islam by the Western press, I believe that many Muslims are upset whenever *any* indication seeps through that might make "Islam look bad"—even such watery references as "Islamic extremists" or "Al-Qaida".
They'd prefer we refrain from even the most oblique, implied "criticism" of Islam. And if they ever find themselves in a global state of ascendancy, they will ensure that will be enforced.
'"Zionist plot" to defame Islam, divide Arab world' -- from the headline
Not really, but perhaps there should be. It could be called '"Western Program" to expose Islam, free Arab world."
There. Fixed it.
Gravenimage - Actually I was seeing it from your perspective also. I just wanted to express some wry humor. But you're right. There has been some subtle but noticeable movement in the MSM during the past two or three months , in being ever so slightly more forthcoming and accurate in reportage about Islam. Has the Grand Sheikh noticed it also? Maybe. But then he refers to it in such an exagerated way (of course). And even the tiniest truthfulness about Islam would look to him as a hole in the dike he knows must be plugged at once.
Maybe the perfesser should refresh his spacey memory with just a sample of the past seven days of incidents from around the world, as of middle today.

Just yesterday, JW presented an interview with Robert Reilly, author of "Closing of the Moslem Mind", in which he pointed out that the prevailing school of philosphy in Islam is anti-rational and dismissive of any idea of natural laws (like gravity) as being a limitation on the power of Allah, believing instead that Allah's actions are the direct cause of everything that happens. That being the case, it should be clear that any Zionist plot is really an act of Allah, causing the Zionists to plot, and any success on the part of the Zionists is because Allah has decided to grant this success. The plot is clearly Allah's, and the Zionists are merely the tools he employs. To say otherwise is tantamount to blasphemy. So off with the Grand Sheikh's head!
"the audacity of lying with a straight face must be token gift from their allah."
They don't necessarily know they lie, they have a tendency to believe their own fabrications.
"Muslims have a long history of friendly relations with non-Muslims over the last 14 centuries," he noted.
They can afford to believe that because the dhimmis never dare to complain.
"There is a Zionist plot aiming to defragment [sic] the Arab world"
Ah, the myth of Arab "unity". The Muslims kill the Christians, the Sunnis kill the Shiites, the Shiites kill the Sunnis, they both kill the Alawites, all three of them kill the Druze, and everyone kills the Jews. They believe Israel is the only thing standing in the way of Arab unity, but in fact destroying Israel is the only cause that can unite them, and in this sense we really do *defragment* the "Arab world".
the malicious" western plans aiming to fragment the Arab world, citing as examples the situations in Iraq, Sudan and Lebanon as well as the Maghreb countries.
Yes, well, the truth is all non-Arabs in the Middle East are sick and tired of the Arabs just as much as all non-Muslims are sick and tired of the Muslims. The western powers, as is well known, drew the lines on the map usually with complete disregard for ethnic, cultural and religious differences. The result is that almost all the fake "nation states" are dominated by just one nation, the Arab nation. And the Arabs oppress everyone else. The Arabization process was supposed to rid the Middle East of the colonial languages, with which I can certainly identify and sympathise. The problem is that in many cases it was used also to eradicate the native languages along with other national characteristics of the natives, and replace them with imposed Arab identity. All other national, ethnic and cultural identities have been suppressed using various legal, cultural and violent methods. This is why the Imazighen (Berbers, plural), the Kurds, the Nubians, Assyrians and all other non-Arabs - that is those who managed to preserve their original identities in spite of the Arab measures - are so sick and tired of the Arabs. But of course, this is all a Zionist/American/western/Crusader conspiracy since nothing is ever their fault, they never do anything wrong, and therefore anything bad that happens can't possibly be the consequence of their own doings.
He also condemned strongly the purported plots to divide Egypt, "the world's oldest country with coherent society," into three Muslim, Christian and Noban [sic] states.
Not a bad idea at all.
I just have to correct one thing regarding my last comment - the Druze in most cases wouldn't kill anyone if they had a choice. And most Israeli Druze are very loyal to Israel since it's part of their tradition to be loyal to the country they live in. I wish all the Druze could live in Israel. I really believe the Jews and the Druze belong together. They would have so much more freedom here and will never ever be persecuted for their religion, and if all million of them lived here they would have more political power. They are over-represented in Israeli politics as it is, but they are such a small community it doesn't give them much power. Many Jews love the Druze very much.
Who we have here is Pinocchio's older brother. The one in need of a daily trim. Poor Giuseppe. He eventually succumbed to the volume of sucker growth.
Political correctness kept this little tidbit from publication.
All the proof of Islam ideology as poison is out there for all the free world to read, yet, the majority tend to have there heads up there behinds. I'm glad there are a very few people trying to get the truth out there,but, without the main stream media and politicians on board WHAT are we to do.The irony of the polititians is in both Canada and the USA most with power are arm wearing Christians so they have to know even the bible predicts the Islamic killings of Christians, so again I ask, What are we to do???? I have also read that some Christians are converting to Islam to save there lives, I don't believe these actions are going to help anybody.
In my case I had no opinion of muslims one way or another until I worked with them for about three years in N.Y. I was working with Buddhist from India,Catholics from Brazil as well at the same time.We were all from the engineering profession working on the same project.The Pakistani muslims could not under the best of circumstances solve any problem in terms of contributing to the advancement of our project.They were always incompetent on every level and dependent to the extreme.The rest of us just shrugged and moved on to get the job done.My take on the islam is from personal experience as the sum of my colleagues and I agree that these people are flat earthed one eyebrow misfits.
...western media moguls...
? a "mogul" is a muslim potentate. The last mogul emperor was exiled and imprisoned by the British after the 1857 Indian Mutiny that presaged British direct rule (the Raj).
Hardly a fitting metaphor to use in describing people who are antipathetic to Islamization.
Veering off topic, but still about Egypt, it should be interesting to watch developments in Egypt today:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-12272836
I'm sure this distinguished muslim scholar believes every one of his asinine lies because islam is perfect and muslims are beyond reproach. Muslims are disconnected from reality to such an extent that it is futile to try to reason with them. You cannot expect people who eschew the Golden Rule to be fair, compassionate, ethical, honest, kind or wise, although they believe they are paragons of wisdom and morality because they adhere to the will of allah and emulate the perversity of muhammad, which are anathema to civilized people.
When people are oblivious to the pure malevolence of their creed and in fact consider it the ultimate form of piety, they are immovable. What allah wills cannot be questioned, only obeyed. If allah wills death, destruction, rape, pillage, plunder, slavery, terrorism, and world domination, muslims must comply and infidels must surrender. Resistance and self-defense are considered acts of war against muslims and islam. How do you reason with insanity?
In Arabic there are two words: “salam” (peace) and “Islam” (submission). Muslims say that both are from the Arabic root word “slm”.Chapter 2:208:
"O you who believe! Enter full / completely into Islam, and follow not the footsteps of Satan, as he is to you an avowed enemy. "
There are Muslims who declare that the phrase is "enter fully into " peace "(salaam)." And so they use the phrase to say that "Islam is peace", "Islam is a religion of peace. "
Islam and Muslims are not the same thing:
Islam is 100% what the Koran says. But there are many Muslims who do not practice what is in the Coran.One hears the phrase repeated by Muslim leaders: "we should not judge Islam by what is done by a Muslim. "I agree 100%, we must " judge Islam by what is said in the Koran. "
Another argument used:
There are Westerners who say: "The extremists / terrorists are not the ones that define Islam, they are a aberration.Take out the extremists and it is a religion of peace."
Another argument:
There are Westerners who say: "You can not slander an entire religion for the actions of a minority of extremists / terrorists, there are extremists / terrorists in every religion, in Christianity and Judaism."
True, I agree 100%. We should judge a religion by what is written in the text,its beating heart, that is to say, the Koran.

"Flat earthed": yes. That term accurately refers to, and describes, the nature of the culture of Muslim societies, and especially the culture Muslim Middle-Eastern societies, and especially the culture of Muslim Arab societies (and especially the culture of Pakistani (Muslim Arab-Indian) society). The culture of Muslim societies is based on Islam. Muslim culture is intertwined with Arab culture, and, in the main, in essense, is Arab culture. Islam is a phenomena that was born of, and born within, and that took over, Arab culture.
"One eyebrow": no. That is a term (a mean unkind term) that refers to the physical characteristics of the body of a person. That term, as you used it, refers to ethnicity. Islam is not an ethnicity, and Muslim culture is not an ethnicity, and Arab culture is not an ethnicity.
Islam is a totalitarian supremacist imperialist religious political ideology and system of government, and is the basis and foundation of the culture of Muslim societies - and especially Muslim Middle-Eastern societies, and especially Muslim Arab societies. Muslim culture is a culture that is based on the totalitarian supremacist imperialist religious political ideology and system of government Islam.
In the 1920's, after the ending of the Islamic Caliphate by Kamal Attakturk, the modern Islamic Supremacist political movement began. The modern Islamic Supremacist political movement was begun by fanatical fundamentalist Muslims and was, and is, a revival of authoritative Islam with the addition of the ideology of the European Jewish-conspiracy-theory ideology propagated by the European intendedly hate-inciting anti-Jewish propaganda fictional book "The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion". Muslim societies are now completely infused with the European Jewish-conspiracy-theory-based, and authoritative-Islam-based, genocidally anti-Jewish ideology of the modern Islamic Supremacist political movement.
The most influential propagator of the ideology of the modern Islamic Supremacist political movement was Amin al-Husseini, who was the founder of the 'Palestinian movement' (and who was an early leader of the Muslim Brotherhood; and who was the mentor of, and an uncle of, Yasser Arafat (Mohammed Yasser Abdel Rahman Abdel Raouf Arafat al-Qudwa al-Husseini)). From 1941 to 1945, Amin al-Husseini resided in Germany, and was an adjoined official of the Nazi regime of Germany, and was a co-architect of the genocide of the Jewish people by the Nazi regime of Germany, and, from 1941 to 1945, Amin al-Husseini broadcasted, from the most powerful shortwave radio station that existed in Germany at that time, Radio Zeesen, genocidally anti-Jewish, "Protocols of the Elders of Zion"-Jewish-conspiracy-theory based, and authoritative-Islam-based, radio programs, in Arabic, and Turkish, and Farsi (the Persian language), to all of the countries in the Middle East, which were radio programs that became popular in Muslim societes in the Middle East, and which were radio programs to which Rhuhollah Khomeini, who, at that time, was the then-future founder of the Shia branch of the modern Islamic Supremacist political movement, and who, at that time, was the then-future leader of the Islamic Supremacist regime of Iran, was, as a young man in Iran, a dedicated and regular listener.
The following is important to understand.
Zbigniew Brzezinski, as the United States National Security Advisor to President Jimmy Carter, consciously intentionally supported the deposition of the (imperfect, flawed, dictatorial, but not Islamic-Supremacist, and comparitavely much less unbeneficial) Shah of Iran, and Zbigniew Brzezinski consciously intentionally supported the establishment of Rhuhollah Khomeini as the leader of Iran.
Zbigniew Brzezinski consciously intentionally brought to power al-Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan as part of an effort that Zbigniew Brzezinski engaged in which he viewed as being an strategic effort to destroy the Soviet Union by unleashing Islamic terrorism against the Soviet Union.
The following is an excerpt of an interview, from 1998, with Zbigniew Brzezinski in the French newspaper Le Nouvel Observateur (Jan 15-21, 1998, p. 76).
Zbigniew Brzezinski was a foreign policy advisor to President Barack Obama.

Daniel,
Sorry if I offended you or any one with the "one eyebrow" comment.I do think you may have over analyzed a tad bit.I should have said the Pakistani muslim engineers had little skill but big tits.The "big tits " part is a compliment.You happy now?
"Muslims have a long history of friendly relations with non-Muslims over the last 14 centuries,"
This ludicrous statement is synonymous with the psychological theory of "crazy making" which, if believed, just might qualify you as a politician or a reporter.
Egypt's "Days of Revolt" in pictures: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-12279633
Interesting how there are no women present in these protest pictures? Cultural differences from the Orange Revolution, or Jasmine? Egypt is a male dominated patriarchic society in the best tradition of Islam's "women are your tithe" tradition?
"Muslims have a long history of friendly relations with non-Muslims over the last 14 centuries," he noted.
Yeah, the friendly sword of Islam still drips non-Muslim blood. By some estimates, more than 200 million non-Muslims have been slaughtered in the name of allah over those last 14 centuries.
Muslim values: “tolerance and moderation.” Really? The Islamic definitions of “tolerance” and “moderation” are not the same as those a standard (Western) dictionary.
Good to know Al-Azhar is working to “promote peace worldwide.” And what does “peace” mean again in Islamic terminology? Oh, right, dar al-Islam or Pax Islamica. No, thanks.
Western and Zionist plots? Really, if only we were so smart as to actually engage in divide-and-conquer tactics and other plots to destabilize, fragment, and delegitimize the Islamic world. But, to do that, we would actually have to “know thy enemy.” Don't see much of that, yet.
