My latest in PJ Media:
The destruction of the United States is all a nefarious plot to aid Israel, you see. On July 3, Islamic scholar Omar Baloch published a video entitled “San Francisco Goes into Chaos, Shoplifting & Shariah Law.” In it, Baloch advances the novel idea that the Left’s ever-escalating efforts to sow division and racial hatred in American society are all designed to advance, you guessed it, Israeli interests. Yes, he’s crazy. But people believe him, too.
According to the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI)’s partial transcription of Baloch’s words, he said: “It [the elite] creates racism. It creates local hatred. [It seeks to] break down the society, break down America, to the point that all the Jews will want to leave and go to Israel. And that is only one of the agendas, of course. They have to bring down this country, to get all the Jews to go to Israel, and in the meantime, cause chaos in America. That is the agenda of the elite. The agenda of the elite is to leave no group trusting another group. It is so unfortunate, because we, as Muslims, could be the harbingers that see through this facade.”
Baloch deserves credit for recognizing that there are indeed forces that want to “break down the society, break down America,” at a time when all too many people dismiss out of hand the possibility that such forces could exist. But Baloch claims that all this “chaos in America” is the work of Zionists, trying to “get all the Jews to go to Israel.”
Apparently Baloch wants us to think that all the recent anti-Semitic violence around the country was ultimately the responsibility of Zionists. So he would have his followers (21,600 of them on YouTube) believe that when a Muslim mob screaming “Allahu akbar” attacked a Jewish man in midtown Manhattan, they were acting at the behest of Zionists, in order to bring about the very result – the emigration of Jews to Israel – that had them so enraged. Baloch wants us to think that in another incident in Manhattan, when Palestinians threatened violence and screamed anti-Semitic slurs at Jews, they were sent by people from the very group they were threatening and screaming at. One threw a mini-firebomb – you just never know what those dastardly Zionists are going to do next. And when pro-jihad protesters stormed a restaurant and spat on Jewish patrons, while one of the thugs threw a bottle, it was all in the service of getting Jews to go to Israel. When a Muslim, Waseem Awawdeh, was arrested for viciously beating a Jew in Times Square, he really was hoping that more Jews would move to Israel, where they have been so graciously welcomed by Palestinian Arabs.
There is more. Read the rest here.

Sounds EXACTLY like what Hitler said about Jews in his beer hall rants, but Omar Baloch drinks, or perhaps, he doesn’t drink openly or in public.
Omar Baloch’s rants are true conspiracy theories that a little actual research would easily disprove.
Jews are no more likely to be communists than other groups. I know many arch-conservative Jews and they tend like other conservatives to be ‘conservative’ about talking about it, because so-called ‘liberals’ are so intolerant and hysterical.
Baloch’s INSANE idea that Zionists encourage Muslims to attack Jews so they will move to Israel is one of the most hysterical things I’ve read. Like other libellous things that Muslims have said about Jews it fits within their canonical Islamic culture of hysterical Jew hatred that I have personally witnessed on a number of occasions.

correction: Baloch DOESN’T DRINK or perhaps he drinks in private.
Infidel says
Does Omar Baloch have any ties w/ the Baloch movements in either Pakistan or Iran?
gravenimage says
He is probably a Balochi.
Keys says
Infidel –
At the time we are not sure about his ties with the Balochi, but we do have reliable confirmation that he has ties with Jabba the Hutt.
Infidel says
Too many people around us these days look like they have ties w/ Jabba the Hutt

U.S. Islamic Scholar Blames the Jews for the Left’s War on America – Including Attacks on Jews
…………….
Typical Islamic “thought”.
OLD GUY says
It doesn’t take much to become an Islamic scholar, you only have to memorize or study ONE book the Quran. And presto your and educated scholar from Chicago spreading love and peace throughout the neighborhoods.
gravenimage says
And not every “Islamic scholar” is a Hafez who has memorized that ugly book.
Rarely says
Hi anodes aren’t talking to his diodes. Just another “blame it (whatever “it” is) on the Jews”.
Make it up and keep it up, nonstop. The promotion of mistrust and hatred is achieved. Reason is no barrier.
