MUSLIMS & JEWS

For those who are not already aware of it, there is a good coverage here of the extensive alliances between Hitler and the Muslim world both before and during WW2. The two sides saw eye to eye on most things -- Jews particularly, of course.

An interesting quote from Mr. A. Hitler: "You see, it's been our misfortune to have the wrong religion. Why didn't we have the religion of the Japanese, who regard sacrifice for the Fatherland as the highest good? The Mohammedan religion too would have been much more compatible to us than Christianity. Why did it have to be Christianity with its meekness and flabbiness?" (From p. 96 of Inside the Third Reich by Albert Speer -- Macmillan, 1970)

The far-Left are active in the Islamic world and by comparison with the Islamists they are a voice of sanity. Note this from one of them: ""A contributor to a secular forum did well recently in reminding us about Hitler's dictum on how to lie and have a great impact on the masses. "Adolf Hitler said: 'the broad mass of a nation will more easily fall victim to a big lie than to a small one.' Hitler also taught us that to succeed, the lie should be told loudly. In case you didn't notice, he would generally start his speeches in a relatively quite manner, [and] then as he starts shouting he gets more and more applause. The foolhardy German masses honestly believed that if their beloved Fuhrer is taking such a pain to talk loudly, he should be telling more truth. By these two accounts, Islamism is expected to be a very successful lie, indeed. Amir Taheri estimated the Islamist propaganda machine's bill to be about 100 billion dollars during the last two decades alone, which makes it the largest propaganda machine in history, even larger than the communist propaganda machine during the Soviet era. People wouldn't obviously spend that much unless they know they have to defend a huge lie".

In their usual desperate fashion, Leftists sometimes try to justify what Osama & Co do by saying that the Crusades of nearly 1,000 years ago were just as bad. Muslims are right to attack us now because we once attacked them. I suppose it is pointless to argue with such deliberate blindness but it might help people brainwashed by a Leftist educational system to know what the crusades were REALLY about. Like the Middle-East interventions by the USA today, the crusades too were a response to Islamic aggression. One excerpt: "The Crusades, he shows, were not the brainchild of an ambitious pope or rapacious knights but a response to more than four centuries of conquests in which Muslims had already captured two thirds of the old Christian world. At some point, Christianity as a faith and a culture had to defend itself or be subsumed by Islam. The Crusades were that defense"

Email from a NYC reader: "Here in New York, there is an old subway station (190th St. and Ft. Washington Ave. in Manhattan) built sometime in the 1920s. For over 70 years the station floor had a geometric pattern in a Greek Motif that included, yes, swastikas. We are talking, in a station, in a neighborhood that was mostly Jewish, including a majority of whom, were European refugees after World War II. Yet nobody ever complained because, as one Jewish neighbor told me, the architecture of the station predated the Nazis and was never meant to offend so no offense was taken. That is until the PC 90's when someone did complain and the bricks were removed and replaced with big ugly black squares. Ironically, the neighborhood now only has a small Jewish minority".

PETA anti-Jewish: "Animal slaughter is not a pretty sight by any means. But a scandal rocked the Jewish world earlier this month when People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) released a secretly recorded videotape of the Postville, Iowa, slaughterhouse of the largest American producer of kosher meat, alleging that its practices amounted to outright animal cruelty. PETA's charges indeed raise some important questions. But its behavior in conducting its investigation, coupled with inflammatory past statements, suggests that the group has marked shechita -- Jewish ritual slaughter -- for extinction."

Boortz: "Yesterday the U.N. conducted its first ceremony remembering The Holocaust. To no one's surprise, the U.N. hall was half-empty, and all Arab countries were absent, except for Jordan. For his part, UN Secretary-General Kofi "Oil-For-Food" Annan was on hand to give a speech. Now ask yourself this: how many nations would be on hand to hear a speech by Fidel Castro? Your answer: nearly all of them, and the place would be packed. The rogue states and thug dictators that make up the UN would be more than happy to salute a ruthless communist. But when it comes to memorializing The Holocaust, they won't be bothered."
