This kind of talk, demonizing Jews and justifying genocide, is common on Hamas TV. Time for the UN to issue another condemnation of Israel.
“Palestinian Imam and Hamas TV Host Abu Funun Justifies Hitler: The Jews Spread Corruption Everywhere,” MEMRI, December 28, 2014:
During a December 28, 2014 Hamas TV show, Palestinian imam Sheik Iyad Abu Funun said: “If the Jews had been a respectable, well-bred people,… [Hitler] would not have done those things to them. … Corruption is deeply rooted in that nation.” Abu Funun, who in the past was sentenced to 29 years in an Israeli prison, was released in the 2011 Shalit prisoner swap. He was later rearrested after resuming his militant activity and expelled from Bethlehem to Gaza for ten years. Abu Funun delivers sermons in a Gaza mosque and recently began to moderate a show on the Hamas-owned Al-Aqsa TV channel, where he made the current statements.
Following are excerpts:
Iyad Abu Funun: The Europeans realized that if the Jews were to remain in Europe, it would lead to utter corruption, and so they wanted to get rid of them. The Jews are, by nature, a corrupt people, who sow corruption everywhere. Whichever land they came upon, they did their worst.
A logical question arises: Why did Hitler annihilate a number of Jews? The figure is still in dispute. Why did he do this? This is a major question. If the Jews had been a respectable, well-bred people, who treated others with respect, he would not have done those things to them.
Even in the days of the Prophet Muhammad – why did the Prophet Muhammad banish them? Because they initiated the aggression. The Jews of the Banu Qaynuqa tribe violated the honor of a Muslim woman, and killed a Muslim man. The Jews of the Banu Qurayza tribe committed acts of treachery. The Jews of the Banu Nazir tribe tried to assassinate the Prophet Muhammad. So we see that corruption is deeply rooted in that nation. That is why Europe wanted to get rid of them.
Europe and the Zionists could not take this land as long as the state of Islam existed. One of the most significant things I recall is that the Europeans offered the Zionists several places in the world – in Central Africa, Uganda, Niger, Brazil, Argentina, and elsewhere. They gave them a choice, and the Zionists said: “We want the Promised Land, Palestine.”
Therefore, when the Austrian journalist Herzl, the founder of the Zionist movement, went to see Sultan Abdul Hamid, whom we are discussing today, he went in the capacity of a journalist. Imagine – when he conducted the interview with Sultan Abdul Hamid, He said to him: “How about you giving us Palestine, and we will pay all the debts of the Islamic State?” So this was no simple conspiracy. It was a conspiracy hatched by superpowers, and by the international community, as it is now known, against the Islamic state.

“Respectable”? Jews are not ‘respectable’ because Allah does not respect them, not because living Jews did anything bad. Why Jews are not ‘respected’ by Allah does not concern us. Allah is always right and if we disagree with Allah (even on his bad arithmetic in the Koran) we go to a hell which is 100 times hotter than earthly fire…but why to 500 times hotter or 783 times hotter? To ask such questions means death if you are a Muslim, so you stifle reasonable questions and accept the unexplained nonsense of Islam.
Is it true that the Holocaust’s death ‘figure is still in dispute’ ??? Adolf Eichmann who was the CEO of the holocaust confirmed the figure of 6 million. It was Eichmann’s job to know his ‘productivity’.
mortimer says
Muslims are surely the most deeply prejudiced people in the world. Such errant nonsense and race hatred go right past the Leftarded cultural Marxists such as Ben Affleck. How do Muslims ‘know’ that Jews are a ‘bad seed’ or a ‘bad breed’ that must be exterminated as one exterminates vermin? It sounds so much like Hitlerism, but it is pure Islam.
How can the Leftards support Muslims when they talk like this. Mr. Affleck, is TV Host Abu Funun a ‘RACIST’ in your personal opinion?
Jay Boo says
Leftards believe that they must throw of the yoke of capitalism and judgmental conservative Christianity and pander to Islam.

john spielman says
IF islam was a RESPECTABLE religion, muslims would not kill those who leave it it. or disagree or even mock it. But islam is a sadistic vile demonic religion of death darkness and hell and that is why muslims behave like they do!
mortimer says
Islam is ‘respectable’ because Allah says so. Allah is pure will and his mind changes inexplicably. Allah tortures those who question him. The intellect is not needed to be Muslim.
Jay Boo says
Just a thought.
If Muhammad had been a prophet, Muslims would not need to feel the constant never-ending need to PROVE their own honor and worthiness as compensation for all that Muhammad lacked.

Beware of this one. He is evil incarnate, he is very forward with his words and he is out to kill Jews.

Muslims have no respect ! So maybe they should be warned ^^ ?
How dare them compare themselves with these innocent Jews killed by a barbaric system ???
Jaladhi says
It’s amazing how much hate Muslims harbor for Jews. Ever since Jews of Medina refused to accept Mo/allah as their prophet, Mo had gone on tirade to eliminate Jews from Arabia by beheading more than 600 Jews of the tribe and setting an “excellent” example for Muslims to follow him for generations to come. I don’t think it is ever going to change as long as Quran exists and imams continue to preach it in their mosques!!
jayell says
“Muslim cleric: If Jews had been “respectable,” Hitler wouldn’t have killed them…..” I really CANNOT beiieve that I actually read that! These musilms are not fit to live in anything even vaguely resembling a civilised universe. Their disgusting track record throughout history is an absolutely appalling catalogue of non-achievement, non-contribution to humanity and brainless, destructive criminal barbarity, and yet they no doubt claim to be ‘respectable’? Respected’ by WHOM exactly?????

The first thing to point out is that Hitler is that it takes a special kind if stupid or evil to name Hitler as a good role model.
The second thing to point out is that if anything, the Jews were too well-bred and respectful of others – did they start a war after enduring persecution from the nazis or did they prefer to walk away?
The third thing to point out is that Sheik Liar Abu Fun-none comes up with exactly 0 examples of what the Jews did to deserve the treatment they got at the hands of nazis. It’s circular logic – if they were good people they wouldn’t have been persecuted, and they were persecuted because they weren’t good people.
This is a textbook example of flipping the bird to historical evidence.
Rebecca says
Actually, if you read Hitlers book, he states many times that what he hates about the Jews, and I quote-
“Conscience is a Jewish invention; it is a blemish like circumcision…..”
“Providence has ordained that I should be the greatest liberator of humanity. I am freeing man from the restraints of an intelligence that has taken charge, from the dirty and degrading self-mortification of a false vision called conscience and morality, and from the demands of a freedom and independence which only a very few can bear……”
“After all the these centuries of whining about protection of the poor and lowly, it is about time we decided to protect the strong against the inferior………..”
“If only one country, for whatever reason, tolerates a Jewish family in it, that family will become the germ center for fresh sedition. If one little Jewish boy survives without any Jewish education, with no synagogue and no Hebrew school, it (Judaism) is in his soul. Even if there had never been a synagogue of a Jewish school or an Old Testament, the Jewish spirit would still exist and exert its influence. It has been there from the beginning and there is no Jew, not a single one, who does not personify it…….”
“There can be no compromise-there are only two possibilities; either victory of the Aryan or annihilation of the Aryan and victory of the Jew…..:

Read Andrew Bostom’s The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism and read from page 51 on the above topic to page 53 the 2003 Putrajaya Islamic Summit and a little beyond to a speech by Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi on the same page. The whole chapter is one horrific example after another of Islamic mass murder and pogroms but go ahead and start with this.

Having served in the area of Iraq, the Muslims are a dirty and unclean people. Islam does not unite them but gives them a way to act out their tribal hatreds and reasons to kill another Muslim for just about any reason, most of which have to do with family or tribal violations of reputation or ‘honor’. They have no honor which makes the killing all the more senseless. After retiring from the Navy, i went to Israel, a place of peace, freedom and honor. Israel has it dark side in human trafficking, done by secular Jews recently immigrated from Russia or southern Europe, and other problems similar to Western countries. But those that do these thing know they are doing wrong. In Islam, evil is codified into the ‘religion’ so that evil is permitted by Muslims in the pursuit of Jihad against infidels or kufirs . Then of course there are the Shiites, Worse than all the infidels. Why?, Because Shia’s believe that the line of descendants from the prophet Muhammed differently than the Sunnis. Truth is, since they claim Mohammed was the greatest and last prophet and there are no follow on prophets, the split between the branches is all about who has the credibility to represent Islam and have the control of Islam, the oil, the money and the booty from Jihad.and the armies of Allah. Worst of all,that they can lie with a straight face and say all kinds of complete non truths and know that 1 billion Muslims will automatically buy the lie, Europeans who have been conditioned to tolerate, will tolerate the Muslims that hate them and the Jew and Christians, and especially Israel and the US. And that folks is how the west will buy the lie and commit national suicide while maintaining their religious tolerance. If Hitler had only known, he could have done it all with out nearly firing a shot. Go figure…

I couldn’t help but chuckle. This ill-bred lout is accusing the Jews of not being “respectable” and of being “corrupt”? There in Gaza???
Larry A. Singleton says
All night long before I’d dropped off to sleep I’d been groping for a word. It finally occurred to me; “pattern”. I made a note in the inside of the book jacket of Masada by Yigael Yadin while I was half asleep, (I’d gotten his Bar Kokohba a week before. Yeehah!): “contrast of Jews vs. Arabs success opposed to degenerate Muslims resulting in pograms”. (Reminded me of my drinking days when I’d wake up the next morning and find these scrawls I’d written…), anyway, I think is was Andrew Bostom that was haunting me as usual when it came to legacy of Muslims slaughtering Jews. I might be way off base but Muslims by their very nature are failures. Islam is the definition of failure and self-destruction. Especially when you “compare” it. My example that I put out there is the article on jihad I found in my Summarized Bukhari written by Shieikh Abdullah bin Humaid and Emmet Fox’s The Sermon on the Mount: A perfect example of Good vs. Evil. I kept thinking of how, down through the centuries Muslims would “live in peace” with the Jews when all of a sudden some Imam would incite another pogrom of mass murder against the Jews. Bostom mentions these in the first 50 or so pages of his book Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism. And these pogroms would always end with Muslims “plundering” the property of the Jews. Always! This is an example of the perpetual failure that is Muslim society and the evil hate and envy of Jewish perpetual success. “Degenerate” is a word I find myself using over and over to describe Muslims. I usually say that Islam is a disease and Muslims are the symptom. And accordingly they destroy everything and everybody they come in contact with; including themselves. That’s why the massacres and killing of n0n-Muslims is almost another definition of Islam. Their very nature, hell, their whole society can’t bare to see the reflection of their failure in everybody elses success. ESPECIALLY the Jews.

This man has 2 zebeebas ….
Zebeebas are the “black mark ” or “bruise” obtained on the forehead by muslims , because of their head repeatedly impacting the ground during prayer …. 5 times a day .
I am not a doctor but I suspect that this activity , particularly if persued from birth, would result in sustaining frontal lobule brain damage .. and thus we might expect the kinds of crazed utterances we regularly hear from those with this unfortunate condition …. which we do !!!

We only kill Muslims because they are not respectable.

Muslim cleric: If Jews had been “respectable,” Hitler wouldn’t have killed them
…………………………
Muslims have been mass-slaughtering Jews for almost 1400 years now—and here is this pious Mohammedan seeking confirmation for this horror…with reference to *Hitler*.
No surprise—Muslims and the Nazis have had links since WWII, where the genocidal Mufti of Jerusalem and Hitler were pally, and Hitler openly admired the Armenian Genocide, and based the Holocaust on its logistics.
Muslims hate and despise Infidels—but one of the very few Kuffar they *do* show some respect for is Hitler. Mein Kampf is a bestseller in most Muslim countries—and besides the Qur’an, Muslims as a rule do very little reading.
Muslims constantly refer to the Holocaust, and taunt Jews with shouts of “Jews to the gas!” and tell threaten that they will finish the job the Nazis started. *Ugh*.
Mohamed says
The last hour would not come unless the Muslims will fight against the Jews and the Muslims would kill them until the Jews would hide themselves behind a stone or a tree and the stone or the tree would say: Muslim, or the servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me; come and kill him.
