Oldest Islamic supremacist dodge in the book: Morsi says his remarks calling Jews "bloodsuckers" and "apes and pigs" were taken out of context

Just what would be a good context in which to say such things? The illustrious Muslim Brotherhood president didn't say. But even he should be embarrassed to retail this tiredest of all the tired Islamic supremacist evasions. On the other hand, there are legions of foolish kuffar eager to buy it, so why not?

"Morsi says remarks on ‘Zionists’ taken out of context," from AFP, January 16 (thanks to all who sent this in):

CAIRO: Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi said on Wednesday that comments on Israel attributed to him before he was elected, slammed as deeply offensive by the United States, were taken out of context.
“The president stressed they were taken from comments on the Israeli aggression against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, and stressed the need to put the remarks in the right context,” said a statement from the presidency issued after Morsi met US Senator John McCain.

According to a TV clip released by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), Morsi refers in a 2010 interview to “occupiers of Palestine” as “blood suckers and war mongers, and descendants of pigs and apes.”

”We must resist them with all forms of resistance. A military resistance in Palestine against these Zionist criminals assaulting the land of Palestine and Palestinians,” he says in the remarks to Quds Channel three years ago.

In Wednesday’s statement, Morsi “stressed his commitment to the principles he has always insisted on, including full respect for religions, freedom of faith and religious practices, especially the heavenly religions.”

Respect. Not legal equality, which is forbidden in Sharia.

Morsi also “stressed the need to differentiate between Judaism and its adherents from those who practise violent actions against Palestinians.”

Morsi's favorite tv shows when he was growing up...

Note: the themes in the soap operas and their characterization of Jews from Muhammad's time are taken from the core Islamic texts.

How many are left of the ancient Jewish community in Egypt, stretching back looooong before Egyptians began calling themselves Arabs? 100? 200?

Muslim Brotherhood's President of Egypt Mohammed Morsi want to kill the Jews

“Prophet” Muhammad taught Muslims to Kill Jews:

so kill him.' " — “Fighting for the Cause of Allah (Jihaad)” Sahih (Most Authentic) Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 176 + 177

(Muslim) “... this was taken out of context”, like the undercover video “Undercover Mosque”, (2nd video, standard taqiyyah 3:28, 16:106 try)

Apes and pigs are not bloodsuckers...No one has ever seen a pig sucking blood...Sucking blood is something, insects, vampires, some zombies and chupacbra's do...There are no chupacabra's in Israel, but it is rumored they are running wild in Egypt, and other places in the Mid East...
Morsi should sleep with one eye open...

As pat Condell said " The Arabs don't hate the Je of Israel. They hate Israel because of the Jews.
By way John McCain must surely be a leftist because he supports continuing to give aide to Egypt. See http://news.yahoo.com/egypts-morsi-tries-defuse-flap-over-jews-slur-214424497.html

"Still, despite calls by some in Washington to rein in aid to Egypt's Islamist-led government, McCain said the delegation will press in Congress for approval of some $480 million in new assistance to Cairo."

Spencer asks:

"Just what would be a good context in which to say such things?"
_______________

With respect, that's the wrong question to ask, because Mohammedists always supply some, other, context (usually, they use the ole' fallback of "palestine"), so by asking open-ended questions regarding context, we are like the fish that attaches itself willingly to the bait, then complains that it was, "the only bait available, so I hit on it".
______________________________

No...the correct question to ask is this:

"What context - not, which - were his words taken OUT OF?"

What is, or what was, the context?

We need to keep hammering away at this logical conundrum until Morsi and his ilk are forced to explain.

To claim "contextual innocence", one must objectify the absence of, or separation from that, particular context. One must, at least, identify that which we are NOW OUT OF."
_____________________________________

Of course, the Mohammedists cannot do this, any more than they can claim certain, objectionable verses from the Koran are, "taken out of context", and therefore misunderstood.

Again - what context are they taken OUT OF?

"By (sic)way John McCain must surely be a leftist because he supports continuing to give aide to Egypt."
_____________

Define, "leftist", please.

Define, "rightist", or, "right-wing", please.

Define, "center", or, "moderate", please.
_______________

Finally, if you're going to quote Condell, do it accurately, please, or we will continue to regard you with the disdain that you so richly deserve.
