to blame Arab Muslim violence on the
Jewish aspirations to return to the land
of Israel is also ridiculous because if
you know a little bit of Jewish history
Muslims have been persecuting Jews ever
since Jews rejected Muhammad and refused
to convert to Islam it didn't matter
where Jews lived it didn't matter where
they wanted to live they were Jews and
they were hated and they were a Target
and so this is an excerpt from a very
famous letter written by myones I think
we've mentioned this before the R so the
Jewish community of Yemen more than 800
years ago it's known as Iger the letter
was written by the rambam to encourage
the Jews who were so demoralized in down
tring in total despair because of the
murder the persecution and the horrible
Arab Muslim oppression their Community
endured living as a Jewish minority in
Yemen and you see where the green line
is I'm just going to translate it
directly into English but this is what
it says with all this we will not be
able to be saved from their abundant
evil and violence at all times and all
the time that we pursue peace with them
they pursue us with cruelty and
wars and so saying 1967
1948 this is 800 years ago Muslims
outside of the land of Israel were
persecuting Jews just as they have
persecuted every minority that has ever
had The Misfortune of dwelling in their
midst the Muslims persecuted the Jews
and today nothing has changed the
murderous hate the jealousy the venomous
religious anger toward the Jew it's
rooted deep into the religious fabric of
this war and so to any honest Observer
it's clear that this has nothing to do
with Gaza nothing to do with politics
this is a religious War now we've gone
out to a deeper level so let's keep
going the Jews were the first people
that are mentioned in the Quran who
rejected Muhammad and there are many
quotes in the Quran that can be
understood to be really anti-jewish and
the fact that the Jews live right now in
the heart of the Muslim world have built
the most successful thriving free
attractive country in the region
surrounded by defunct failing uneducated
poverty-stricken Muslim countries is
such an embarrassment for Islam that the
hate of the existence of the state of
Israel it's like an existential hate
it's like a living contradiction to
their entire world view how can Islam be
the ultimate truth if all the blessings
and prophecies are being fulfilled
through the Jews in Israel and not
through the Muslims around them in the
Middle
East
