Israel rattled by rise in anti-Semitic rhetoric from Egypt

But surely they must have seen it coming, and see what is coming next, despite the willful blindness of the Western media. "Israel rattled by rise in anti-Semitic rhetoric from Egypt," by Paul Alster for FoxNews.com, October 26 (thanks to Benedict):

HAIFA, Israel – The new tone coming out of Egypt - punctuated by President Mohammed Morsi mouthing "Amen" to an Imam's call for the destruction of Israel - is rattling residents of the Jewish state, who claim the Obama administration isn't taking the ratcheted-up rhetoric seriously.

Lip reading by the Anti Defamation League and the Middle East Media Research Institute confirmed Morsi's approval of a prayer delivered by influential Imam Futouh Abd Al-Nabi Mansour last Friday, in which he stated, “Oh Allah ... grant us victory over the infidels. Oh Allah, destroy the Jews and their supporters.” Israelis already nervous by the rise of Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood say it is the latest example of a disturbing trend.

“There is no question that the rise to power of the Muslim Brotherhood has prompted open expressions of anti-Semitism in ways that were never publicly expressed during the Mubarak period," Efraim Zuroff of the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s Israel office told Fox News.com. "The Obama administration is treating this far less seriously than it should be.”

Gee, I wonder why.

The rise to power this summer of Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood prompted fears that the anti-Israeli, and anti-Semitic party, would be set on a collision course with its near neighbor, jeopardizing the peace treaty which has held firm between the previously warring nations since 1979. But while the rhetoric has been heated, the new Egyptian leader has also proven to be more pragmatic than some expected, thus far placing the national interest ahead of his own and his party’s religious ideology.

The party that propelled Morsi to power, however, has made no secret of its contempt for Judaism and Christianity. When Mohammed Badie in 2010 became leader of the Muslim Brotherhood - and consequently President Morsi’s spiritual guide - he stepped up his attacks on Israel even while Hosni Mubarak still held an iron grip on power in Egypt.

Determined to recapture Jerusalem and the Al Aqsa (Golden Dome) Mosque, Badie told his followers, “Every Muslim is obliged to wage Jihad in order to restore it (Jerusalem) to Muslim rule”. Of the Jews he added, “Allah would free the world of their filth and corruption...Jerusalem will be regained only through Jihad, not through negotiations.”

Badie’s continued use of inflammatory and racist language against Jews recently prompted the Wiesenthal Center, an internationally renowned human rights organization, to insist that President Obama condemn the Supreme Guide of the Muslim Brotherhood and, if necessary, cut off ties with the organization, until he withdraws his comments. No clear condemnation of the organization has yet been issued by the U.S. administration.

"They are giving Egypt’s new leadership tremendous latitude when it comes to things like this, despite the fact that these are the type of issues on which they should be held accountable,” Zuroff said. “It was hoped that the Arab spring would bring about a rise in democracy, but that simply hasn’t been the case. The undercurrent of Islamism from people who down the line would want to apply Sharia law in its most fundamental sense is a serious cause for concern.”...

But in a related point, on Thursday Israeli Vice Prime Minister Moshe Yaalon, speaking on Israel radio, voiced rare recent criticism of Egypt’s efforts to rein in Jihadists in Sinai, saying, “It’s a question of Egypt deciding to assert its sovereignty against terrorists... It hasn’t happened yet.”

Gee, I wonder why.

“It’s a question of Egypt deciding to assert its sovereignty against terrorists... It hasn’t happened yet.”

And it won't. Remember the "Innocence of Muslims" movie, scene 0:26, depicting the violence of a muslim mob and the inaction of the law enforcement personnel!!!

http://crossmuslims.blogspot.ca/2012/10/innocence-of-muslims-dissected.html

"Al Aqsa" means "the farthest", doesn't it? Not "Golden Dome".

Ah, yet another nail in the coffin of the corpse that was my former support for Obama.

The war waged upon the Jews of Israel by the Ummah, or Mohammedan Mob, both Arab and non-Arab (see the hate toward Jews that pours from the Turkish Muslims, the Persian Muslims, and Muslims as far away as Malaysia), is basically Jihad: Jihad against the Jews, which is a subset of the vast and permanent Global Jihad against everybody on earth who isn't a Muslim and refuses to be a Muslim and refuses, also, to be a terrified, cringing, exploited and abused dhimmi near-slave of Muslims.

For anyone who has just lobbed in to this forum, whether Jew or Gentile, and is new to this site and this subject, one of the easiest and simplest discussions of this matter can be found here:

Why Islam Will Never Accept the State of Israel

By Steven Simpson, THE AMERICAN THINKER June 30 2010

If you haven't read this little article - it's only a few pages long - do.

Then make a copy of it, onto your own hard disk at home. Read and re-read until you understand exactly what he's saying, and where all this Muslim HATE of Jews is coming from (namely, from the core canonical texts of Islam, which were produced over a millennium before the modern Jewish state of Israel was born in what was historically the Jewish traditional homeland). Then print off copies on paper, and tuck them into your back pocket, your briefcase, your handbag, your glovebox, your desk drawer; and share them around to anyone who needs to be educated.

Simpson masterfully summarises the key elements of what you might also learn from reading much, much longer and heavier works: from Andrew Bostom's massive tome, 'The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism', or from Martin Gilbert's equally magisterial 'In Ishmael's House', or from David Littman and Paul Fenton's 'Exile in the Maghreb: the Jewish Condition Under Islam' (a historical case study of the suffering of the ancient - indeed, long pre-dating Islam - North African Jewish communities throughout the entire period that they endured Muslim misrule), or Bat Yeor's 'The Dhimmi: Jews and Christians Under Islam', or even Norman Stillman's 'The Jews of Arab Lands', or Lawrence Loeb's work on the Jews of Iran (work based on research done during the last years of the Shah's reign).

The Ummah, or Mohammedan Mob, simply *cannot* endure the loss of even one inch of any bit of land that was for any period of time part of the Empire of Islam. Muslims *still* resent having been unceremoniously booted out of Iberia, southern Italy, Malta, the Balkans, a big chunk of southern Russia, and most of India, by the resurgent indigenous populations plus a bit of outside help (and I'll *bet* Muslims are gnashing their teeth over the recent loss of South Sudan and East Timor, and busy plotting to crush those little non-Muslim states and force them back into semi-slavery under Muslim imperialists). And - malignant narcissists that the Muslims are, with a monstrously inflated sense of total entitlement - it simply sticks in Muslim craws that the hated Jews have defied the (supposedly) allah-ordained order of things and have taken back a bit of what Muslims originally stole, and are living on it, and thriving, and have so far by use of arms - no dhimmi is EVER permitted to own and bear arms, let alone use force to defend himself against an attacking Muslim - successfully defended themselves against all Muslim attempts to reimpose Muslim rule upon eretz Israel and upon those same uppity Jews.

HAIFA, Israel – The new tone coming out of Egypt - punctuated by President Mohammed Morsi mouthing "Amen" to an Imam's call for the destruction of Israel - is rattling residents of the Jewish state, who claim the Obama administration isn't taking the ratcheted-up rhetoric seriously.
.........................

And this comes as no surprise. After all, this administration hasn't taken Iran's vows to "Wipe Israel off the Map" seriously, either.

And in the meanwhile, the resurgent Islam of the "Arab Spring" nations makes Israel's already dangerous "neighborhood" far more dangerous still...

Only somewhat OT: I was researching another subject, and came across an interview with the BBC's Jeremy Bowen.

On reporting from the Middle East, he noted that "a lot of my friends [i.e., fellow journalists—GI] have been killed".

He then went on to characterize the risk as "a numbers game".

What madness! Are journalists covering, say, Japan regularly killed? Denmark? Canada? New Zealand?

He makes it sound as though the risk in covering the Middle East was somehow organic—as though the danger came from killer sandstorms or something, rather than from *homicidal Muslims*.

And what of the only civilized democracy in the Middle East? The article's subhead should give you a clue:

"As well as dodging bombs and bullets, the BBC’s Middle East editor Jeremy Bowen has to fight off accusations of bias against Israel, but he’s not apologising."

What a foolish dhimmi! He's biased against the *only* people in the region who are not a threat to his profession and his life. Madness.
