Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Jordanian MP: “I dare any lawyer, engineer, or doctor to even say hello to a Jew”

Mar 1, 2020 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

He didn’t say “an Israeli.” He said “a Jew.” The Qur’an depicts the Jews as inveterately evil and bent on destroying the well-being of the Muslims. They are the strongest of all people in enmity toward the Muslims (5:82); they fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79; 3:75, 3:181); they claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64); they love to listen to lies (5:41); they disobey Allah and never observe his commands (5:13). They are disputing and quarreling (2:247); hiding the truth and misleading people (3:78); staging rebellion against the prophets and rejecting their guidance (2:55); being hypocritical (2:14, 2:44); giving preference to their own interests over the teachings of Muhammad (2:87); wishing evil for people and trying to mislead them (2:109); feeling pain when others are happy or fortunate (3:120); being arrogant about their being Allah’s beloved people (5:18); devouring people’s wealth by subterfuge (4:161); slandering the true religion and being cursed by Allah (4:46); killing the prophets (2:61); being merciless and heartless (2:74); never keeping their promises or fulfilling their words (2:100); being unrestrained in committing sins (5:79); being cowardly (59:13-14); being miserly (4:53); being transformed into apes and pigs for breaking the Sabbath (2:63-65; 5:59-60; 7:166); and more. They are under Allah’s curse (9:30), and Muslims should wage war against them and subjugate them under Islamic hegemony (9:29).

“Jordanian MP Yahya Saud: Our Trade Unions Wouldn’t Even Tolerate Their Members Saying ‘Hello’ to a Jew; Arabs Must Pressure Their Governments to Stop Normalizing Relations with Israel,” MEMRI, February 17, 2020:

Jordanian MP Yahya Saud, the Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Palestine, said in a February 17, 2020 interview on Jordan TV that the Arab people completely reject President Trump’s Deal of the Century, and he called for the people to pressure their governments to stop all forms of normalization with Israel. He added: “The trade unions are very strict when it comes to normalization. I dare any lawyer, engineer, or doctor to say hello to a Jew. This is something that we reject completely.”

Yahya Saud: “All the Arab peoples completely reject what Trump calls the ‘Deal of the Century.’ If you asked me whether the governments differ from the parliaments, I would have to say that they do. We Jordanians hear many times… My colleague here participates in conferences, and I am sure he hears people say: ‘But you in Jordan are involved in normalization of times with Israel…’ I say that our normalization with that entity is a 5-star-hotel-style normalization. I dare the Israeli ambassador… He drives around in his car. He goes around hiding like a mouse. He moves from one hall to another and from one car to another. We, the people, must exert pressure on these governments to make them stop all types of normalization. My colleague Mazen [Rashidat, head of the Bar Association,] and the trade unions are very strict when it comes to normalization. I dare any lawyer, engineer, or doctor to even say hello to a Jew. This is something that we reject completely.”

    He didn’t say “an Israeli.” He said “a Jew.”

    Remember the bush that snitched on the Jew hiding behind it. Kill him. Kill the Jew hiding behind me. What is Islam? Whatever it is, it ain’t just about the Jews, it’s about all of us who were raised to love freedom. From Moses to King David to Spengler, Jews are good people, fine people. It must be the idea behind Judaism. Love the Jews, everywhere, including those in Israel. Leave them alone. Leave us alone. Go away..

      Apprehended Muslims terrorists are saying ‘hello’ to Jewish doctors in Israel every day of the week.

    In the Kingdom of Jordan, Jews (however few in number) are not allowed by law to own land or to become lawyers or doctors. Even Jews hailing from former millennia-old communities in Arab nations, such as Iraq or Yemen or Transjordan itself.

    These exclusions reflect the moderate King’s principled stand against Israeli apartheid. (Sarc/off)

      It isn’t called ‘apartheid’ or ‘religious discrimination’ when Jordanians do it.

      • Keys says

        Mar 1, 2020 at 3:06 pm

        Mortimer, as you have reminded us many times, it is the “doctrine of Islamic apartheid, called al Walaa wal Baraa”, and “no Muslim has permission to avoid it or not to practice it. Avoiding the obligation to hate kafirs ‘for the sake of Allah’ is tantamount to leaving Islam.”

        All part of diabolical Islam with Allah’s sanctified command to subdue the infidel – entirely contrary to freedom for men of good will and Western democracies. The best of people should not mix with filthy kafirs unless it is to advance Islam by hijrah, for example.

      Is Moshe actually taking a stand against Islamic persecution here? Glad to see it.

      The fact is, though, that despite Jews having a millenia-old history in Jordan, that there are no Jews residing there today. They had all been driven out long since.

    The perfect example of a bigot and Islamic Jew hatred; as if we needed another.

      It’s interesting to note the reaction of the other two men at the interview table. One is practically rolling his eyes and his body language says he can’t wait for ranting, no-neck Saud to be gone. Neither is indicating any agreement with Saud.

    So if you’re a doctor, lawyer or engineer in Jordan it’s assumed that you’ve got to be some sort of raving antisemitic racist? Otherwise you’re allowed to be civilised? That says a lot for the Jordanian professional classes, doesn’t it? I must remember to give these characters a very wide berth if ever I have the misfortune to meet one here in the UK

  5. Gork says

    Mar 1, 2020 at 9:21 am

    I come from a Jewish family and I am an engineer. My brother is a lawyer, and my cousin is a doctor. There is a very good chance that if the MP Yahya Saud were in any other part of the world, that engineer, lawyer, or doctor would be Jewish.

    Let that sink in.

    • Westman says

      Mar 1, 2020 at 12:38 pm

      Lets go a further and point out that there is an Israeli medical research company that believes they are 90 days away from an approved effective vaccine to prevent Covid-19. Will the Jordanian MP Saud turn down the vaccine when Covid-19 comes for him and his people or will he say, “Hello Jew vaccine!”?

      That US assistance to Israel looks like an astonishingly good investment. Compare that to funding the PA which supports killing Israelis and pay-for-slay.

          72 virgins for martyrs for Allah. Isn’t this a good idea or what?

      Gork,

      I have great respect for Jewish professionals in general.

      I have learned much from Jewish resident and attending physicians. As a group, they are highly intelligent and outstanding physicians.

    Of all the Arab states, to me Jordan is the most reprehensible. The Hashemites (Jordanians) were also stateless but because they fought for the Western allies against the Turks they were rewarded with the first dispensation of territory from the British Mandate of Palestine. That was abt 1925. The Jews had to wait 25 years for Israel and what a disastrous 25 years that was!
    Hussein and now Abdullah cuddle up to the West but they are as bad as the worst.

  7. FYI says

    Would that exclude saying hello to…… Moses,Elijah,Jesus Christ?

    ALL Biblical prophets,all TRUE prophets are of Jewish extraction.They had to be.

    The reason for this:

    “We Jews know whom we worship because it is FROM THE JEWS that salvation comes”
    John 4 v 22

    This statement from Jesus Christ{Jewish} confirms..

    1]the chosen people status of the Jews{chosen in the sense of being given a privilege and a mission:not in any sense of superiority over others which would be quite mistaken}
    Jews were given the Torah,the LAW{=2 chief commandments+Exodus 20 laws}and also the prophecies.The commandment system revealed in the Torah was carried forward into the Gospel so it is the SAME in Judaism AND Christianity.

    The Law{ =2 chief commandments+Exodus 20 decalogue} are the exact SAME for a Jew as they are for a Christian.The Law was never changed.

    {see if you can find the Law in the koran or in islam:if allah teaches that the Exodus 20 laws can be broken and teaches muslims NOT to “love thy neighbor” k5:51 along with islam’s Doctrine of HATE al walaa wal baraa,then BOTH of the supreme laws of God are violated in islam!}

    The 2 chief laws [LOVE GOD,LOVE OTHERS]are “the WHOLE of the Law of Moses and the teachings of the prophets depend on them”Matthew 22 v 40

    In Matthew 7 v 12 the Golden Rule {“do for others what you want them to do for you”} is equated with “the MEANING of the Law of Moses and the teachings of the prophets”

    So the Golden Rule=the Meaning of the law of Moses and the teachings of the prophets.

    The Biblical{Judeo-Christian}God/YHWH is a God of love:allah is the complete opposite.
    {allah has no Golden Rule,no “love thy neighbor”:but these are Laws of God given in the Torah and Gospel.Spot the false god allah!}

    2]The ESSENTIAL role of the Jews in salvation History

    3]That the prophets HAD to have been Jewish as it is “from the Jews that salvation comes”

    Even the koran confirms that the Prophethood was given to the Children of Israel

    “And verily WE gave the Children of Israel the scripture and the command and the PROPHETHOOD”
    koran 45:16

    ALL the Biblical prophets,being Jewish{from the “Children of Israel”} satisfy allah’s own criterion of who had the right of Prophethood.Of course muslims PRETEND all those Jewish Biblical prophets were somehow muslim:”Abraham was not a Jew” k3:67

    Guess who did not come from the Children of Israel and thus does not qualify by allah’s own criterion of having the right of Prophethood?

    The “prophet” muhammed[pbuh?lol}

    So idiotic is the koran that it says that Jews are “the WORST of created beings”
    koran 98:6
    and yet at the same time says the prophethood was given to the Children of Israel
    koran 45:16 who can only have been Jewish.

    It is obvious the author/s of the koran is/are an antisemitic Arab/s who replaces the Jews with the Arabs making muslims the chosen people k3:110

  8. Steven Edelman says

    Mar 1, 2020 at 11:36 am

    It is so difficult to believe that there will ever be peace between Israel and the Muslim nations that border it.

  9. mortimer says

    Mar 1, 2020 at 1:15 pm

    Consider the name SAUD … what are the chances that the name is indigenous to the region of Jordan and Israel? Same with dozens of other ethnic and tribal names of ‘Palestinians’ whose families hail from every Arab country between Morocco and Iraq.

    • gravenimage says

      Mar 1, 2020 at 9:01 pm

      Important point, Mortimer!

      Many of the “Palestinians” are from elsewhere.

    And this thug is a member of the Jordanian parliament…

      Mar 1, 2020 at 9:44 pm

      Indeed, gravenimage.

      But at least his evil beliefs are out there – for all to see…

    One of the things that comes to mind about Jews is hearing about Jordan using the headstones from many of them as paving stones for roads. This is totally unacceptable, as I would not even think of doing that to my worst enemy.

    One of the obvious things to me is that from the Hebrew writings it is easy to see how the Koran has misrepresented the ancient texts, as Jews and others that can read Hebrew are aware of this.

    We should not be fearful of evil but expose it for all to see so that it can be more easily removed from this world. Also if I had to live in one middle east country it would be Israel, as all of the others would most likely find one or more reasons to put me to death. The same for many others as well, as I’m not Muslim but I’m knowledgeable about things that many of them find unacceptable to their faith.

    It is always better to be a part of a society that is inclusive than one that is for homogeneity of only one faith, one belief and so forth. As with such societies they can’t grow as there is no opportunity as it is the different ideas and different ways of looking at many things that allow for creativity and new ideas to become better than we were in the past.
