Note the Islamic character of everything Sheikh Iyad Abu Funun says. He swears on the Qur’an that all the Jews will be expelled from Palestine, including those who are buried there. He refers to Muhammad’s massacres of the Jewish tribes in Media, the Banu Qaynuqa, Banu Nadir, and Banu Qurayza. He refers to the Battle of Mut’ah, in which the Muslims, led by Muhammad, supposedly smashed the Byzantines. What Washington policymakers refuse to understand is that this man and those who think like him will not be pacified by negotiations, or by a “two-state solution.” They believe they have a religious duty before Allah to “drive them out from where they drove you out” (Qur’an 2:191). They will never accept a Jewish State of any size, and concessions to them only embolden them to demand more.
“Hamas Cleric and TV Host Abu Funun: We Will Not Leave a Single Jew, Dead or Alive, on Our Land,” MEMRI, October 13, 2015 (thanks to Pamela Geller):
Hamas cleric and TV host Sheikh Iyad Abu Funun recently said that he would swear on the Quran “that not a single Jew will remain on this land.” He further said: “W will not leave a single one of you, alive or dead, on this land. By Allah, we will dig up your bones from your graves and get them out of this country.” He was speaking on Al-Aqsa TV on October 13, 2015.
Following are excerpts
Iyad Abu Funun: Let me say something clearly to the Zionists, something that should reach all those enemies – whether left-Wing, right-wing, secular, religious, or extremist. Regardless of their appearance or the color of their skin, they are on the land of Islam, and the Muslims, on the land of the Prophet’s nocturnal journey. Any of our enemies living on this land must understand that they have no place on this land.
Brother, could you bring me a copy of the Quran? I want to swear on the Quran that not a single Jew will remain on this land. Not a single settler will remain on this land. Absolutely not. The sheikhs who preceded me swore on the Quran [a producer hands Abu Funun a Quran] that not a single Jew would remain on this land and that you would not win any battle. I too swear on the Quran that by Allah the Almighty, who created the skies above and all creatures, who sent us the Quran and the messengers, who created Paradise and Hell, life and death, we will not leave a single Jew on our Islamic land – no child, no adult, no settler, no soldier, nobody of Eastern or Western origin. No Jew will remain on the land of Islam and the Muslims.
This is my vow on behalf of the entire Palestinian people, and of the Arab and Islamic nation in its entirety, from East to West. If the enemies do not understand this, they are stupid. They have not read the books of history. Go and read them, and learn what happened between us. In the days when the Prophet Muhammad was in Medina, the Jews of Bani Qaynuqa’, of Bani Nazir, and Bani Qurayza were there. What did you do? You betrayed the Prophet once and did not learn your lesson. You betrayed him a second, third, and fourth time, and did not learn your lesson. We trampled on you time and again.
Our nation is invincible. We are killed, martyred, wounded… When a thousand are killed, thousands come in their place. When one commander is killed, a thousand take his place. We are nation that cannot come to an end.
Read the books of history carefully, and learn who were the men who were educated by the Prophet Muhammad. Go back to the history books. When we set out to fight the Byzantines in the battle of Mu’tah, we had 3,000 fighters, while the Byzantine numbered 200,000. We, the men educated by the Prophet Muhammad, are invincible. Don’t talk to me about security forces, airplanes, tanks, intelligence agencies, about detentions, deportations, destruction of homes, missiles… This is all meaningless. The Quran is in our hearts, and you and all your forces cannot rip it out.
Therefore, you should study the books of history because history repeats itself. Our tragedies will not repeat themselves. This is where the equation ends. We and you are on the same land, but we have our complete faith in Allah and in the strength of the mujahideen, and will not leave a single one of you, alive or dead, on this land. By Allah, we will dig up your bones from the graves and get them out of this country. We will not leave any trace of you on this land.

In part, the reason I like semi anonymous posting places like this, is because I can turn Abu’s own tactics back on him, and he doesn’t know who or how many think like me so, here goes.
Abu.
When you and your pieces of filth go after the “Jews” you’re going to have to go through ever swelling numbers of people like me.
As example of how sick and tired we are of your ilk, period, out of the blue my cousin called yesterday.
And was he PISSED.
He first let me know about how I’d been right all along about Islam, (Ever since my return from the Middle East (And Turkey and the Maldives) over a decade ago I’ve been patiently trying to explain to everyone here, just how ALL Islamic societies behave.) and boy is Cuz sick and tired of Muslims, most of whom come to other countries for no other reason than to leech. (Statistically proven.)
A tinsmith by trade he was “forced” to accept several Muslims as workers, and between their praying on company time, and lying about the work they were supposed to have done while unsupervised, his production is down by 50%.
He knows that number is accurate because the Texas company who hired him called and bit**ed about the drop in production -and quality – and after he wigged out and CHEWED OUT HIS BOSSES, he apparently needed almost an hour to let me know how right I’d been for the past decade.
So if my cousin is any example, I promise you, if a pigeon so much as poops on a synagogue here, there are hordes of non Jewish infidels who will blame YOU.
We are not going to put up with it.
The reason all countries are the way they are is because of their people and culture, and anyone who can’t make the connection between all Islamic run societies and 3rd world dictatorships is an idiot.
Have a nice day.
Oh and maybe someone here can help with something Cuz asked me to look into.
Apparently, if there are a number of Muslims and an infidel together, according to the Koran they MUST speak in the Infidel’s language so he can “Share in their sadness and happiness.”
IF they speak in a language said infidel doesn’t understand, it goes against Allah’s own commands.
Anybody hear of anything like this?
Peter Buckley says
It’s amazing the number of PC Western multiculturalists who have no idea, or deny that these things are said in the name of Islam. So here is the clip on youtube:

Please link to it whenever relevant re. the “Middle East Question”.
Words are unnecessary. These clerics prove our point for us.
Thank you.

That much is true, I’ll give him that.

Yaaaaaawn. Old News. Tell me something new Sheikh Abu……
“God, don’t keep silent. Don’t keep silent, and don’t be still, God.
For, behold, your enemies are stirred up. Those who hate you have lifted up their heads.
They conspire with cunning against your people. They plot against your cherished ones.
“Come,” they say, “let’s destroy them as a nation, that the name of Israel may be remembered no more.”
For they have conspired together with one mind. They form an alliance against you. The tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites; Moab, and the Hagrites; Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek; Philistia with the inhabitants of Tyre; Assyria also is joined with them. They have helped the children of Lot. Selah.
Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the river Kishon;
who perished at Endor, who became as dung for the earth.
Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb; yes, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna;
who said, “Let us take possession of God’s pasture lands.”
………(Psalm 83)

These idiot Imams and Sheikhs don’t read their Quran. But these ignorant swear on the same Quran which says the following.
The Koran in a number of places assigns Israel to the ‘children of Israel’. (Most Muslims apparently do not realize it.)
Koran 5.20 uses the legal word ‘assign’: “O my people (Jews), enter the Holy Land which God has assigned unto you…” The ‘Holy Land’ is ‘assigned’ by Allah.
Koran 5.32 lets it slip that “We ordained for the Children of Israel that if anyone slew a person – unless it be in retaliation for murder or for spreading mischief IN THE LAND”
What is ‘the land’ where Jews control the legal system? Obviously, ‘the land’ is Israel assigned to Jews by Koran 5.20.
Moreover, Koran 17.104 announces the return of Jews to Israel during the end times: “And thereafter We [Allah] said to the Children of Israel: ‘Dwell securely in the Promised Land. And when the last warning will come to pass, we will gather you together in a mingled crowd.”
mortimer says
They read the Koran in Arabic, but they are merely ‘la-la-ing’ without any comprehension of the meaning.
You are correct about the Koranic verses that clearly make Israel the Jewish homeland. No other interpretation is possible: Israel is the ‘promised land’ of the Jewish nation.
dragaozao says
One thing i can say: this guy (just as the islaic state) is not a liar. He speaks with his heart and only fools like the ones we have in te West insist in nor understanding them. Multiculturalism against all evidences, all facts, all logic. This is the reason why i think the west is doomed.
K. says
No, we cannot rip the Quran out of your heart. We can bury you with it. All it takes is a flip of a switch. Our minds are just not ready to do it, yet. But you’re working on it, just keep digging. You, on the other hand, would not hesitate if you had the means. This is the main difference between us. We can change our minds no matter the pain, and in the face of grave danger we will. You, you simply can not, no matter how much you struggle. Either you learn to live with others who do not share your beliefs, or the others may one day decide to live without you.
mortimer says
Israel was created by the League of Nations as a homeland for Jews. Transjordan was created for Arabs to the east of the Jordan River. The proposed original homeland for Jews was thereby reduced by over 70%. The attribution of the ‘West Bank’ was never done and by lack of a decision or treaty, the West Bank belongs to Israel as much or more than to any other country. Arabs in the region should join the modern world by adopting democratic means to negotiate and accommodate so Jews and Arabs can live in the region in harmony and mutual benefit.

Remember, the adages of President Barack Hussein Obama, Amb. Rice, Sec. of State Kerry and Clinton, Analyst Rhodes, PM Cameron Islam is a Religion of Peace and to say otherwise is blasphemy punishable by death (not yet in the West but Jail in Canada) UN Resolution 16/18 Canada Rule 57. As the Mental Giant of History, Religion and Archaeology stated don’t get on that high horse and we know who the real terrorists are, so he says. I await the day, I pray in my life time that proof of his birth not having taken place in the USA is beyond doubt and these 8 years unravel.
What has gone under the carpet in 3 days is BO voiding the Civil Suit against the PLO and Hamas Terrorists by the Victims or families for 3/4B $. Since BO voided it claiming the PA/Hamas government would collapse (LOL they have time to close shop to riot) He has made each American taxpayer complicit with funding terror (Hamas is on the list) that has killed countless Americans and many of whom were represented in the Court room where Obama said NO Justice we’re giving this back to the terrorist Abbas and Hamas

1. Jews will fight and avenge the massacres of Bani Qaynuqa, Bani Nazir Bani Qurayzi and others even after 1700 years. Sheikh Iyad Abu Funun will see things differently when he gets an Uzi up his ass!
2. Move the Al Aksa mosque to central Syria or Iraq. ISIL had destroyed the ancient structures so there is plenty of room for the move; and lots of parking, too, for buses, cars and camels.
3. Move the so called Palestinians to Syria’s empty lands where 10 million Syrians have left and the area is open to new , so called Palestinian colonization. In reality they are moving back home. Most so called Palestinian are of Syrian origin and migrated to Israel after WWI to partake of the prosperity produced when the Jews restarted a flourishing economy in their homeland.
