Jew-hate has a long history in Islam. When the Jews rejected Mohammed as an improbable 'prophet', and publicly ridiculed him for being mad – he was of course insane and became a mental defective due to a breakdown at age 40 – they entered Muslim and Koranic discourse as the foremost enemy of the Arab fascism. Contrary to myth, Islam does not afford any special status or protection for the two 'peoples of the book'. Read it. The Koran and Muslim ideology is very clear. Both of these wayward groups must either be reformed back to the Sharia or Path of 'Allah'; or be enslaved as dhimmis; or simply killed. These are facts.

For the really smart people however, with their open anti-semiticism, facts are inferior to myth and prejudice. Much like the Nazis, the really smart people in the modern West, 'educated' supposedly at places of 'higher learning', invent stories which purport to 'prove' that the Jews are to blame. Thus Jew apartments on the West Bank, taken by Israel in the process of Arab wars of genocidal destruction, are 'illegal' and 'racist'. Jews building out the contours of modern civilization in Jerusalem are engaged in acts of 'oppression' and 'violence' against those poor, peaceful, moderate Arabs. It is pitiful to listen to such tripe.

Even Jewish withdrawal from southern Lebanon, and Gaza in 2005, which has resulted in nothing but more Islamic attacks, rockets and open declarations of racist genocide; are portrayed as 'too little', 'tardy' and 'repressive', since the Israeli state now protects its contracted borders on the south with fencing and walls. The Jewish state of 7 million, itself containing 2 million Arabs and surrounded by 330 million Arabs in states of various degrees of hostility, is painted as an aggressor.

Hard to believe. But that is what the really smart people say.

For the Nazis the Jews were too numerous in the echelons of business, banking, baking, retail, government, and academia. Too many Jews were being too successful. To the Nazi mind this must have meant that someone else 'was losing'. Zero sum ideology permeates Nazified thought. Islam is nothing less than ideological fascism in a pre-modern form. So Muslims also feel of course, that if Israel succeeds by turning a desert into a modern, agricultural-exporting state, that they the Arabs must 'be losing'. Someone has to be 'exploited' for the Jews to succeed don't they ? So question the really smart people. How else did Israel build up a modern political-economy if not by the repressive exploitation of the 'native' peoples ? The linkage of such thinking with Nazi ideology, and that which permeated Stalin's regime which also hunted down Jews, is not hard to make.

The really smart people forget the fact that the Jews were resident 3000 years ago in Israel, building under David one of the regions most powerful empires stretching from the Euphrates to Egypt circa 1000 BC. The Arabs are new comers, slaughtering Jews and Christians in a series of wars in the 7^th century and again during the Crusades to claim, and then reclaim, Israel for the Arab moon cult. The Arabs are the occupiers, not the Jews.

And the Arabs never suffered pograms; genocidal attacks or the holocaust. 6 million Jews were lost to the Nazi regime, but at least a million were lost in persecutions across Eastern Europe from 1000 AD to the 20^th century. During Stalin's regimes Jews were expelled, imprisoned, and even killed. One of the great planks of Russian supremacism was a hatred of the Jew, a racist belief which was bred into Russians during the Communist era. It still lingers on today.

Any excuse to hate and kill Jews will do for Arabs and Muslims. As Brett Stephens wrote in the Wall Street Journal, if it is not one thing to justify Jew hate, it will be another. Destroy Israel and the Muslim mind will conjure up another problem which mandates jihad and terror – both of which are Koranic duties. In place of West Bank settlements it will be Lady Gaga which shows the diabolic nature of Jewish-American culture and which perforce, needs to be fought by the holy, pure warriors of the Allah moon cult:

Which brings me back to the settlements. There may well be good reasons for Israel to dismantle many of them, assuming that such an act is met with reciprocal and credible Palestinian commitments to suppress terrorism and religious incitement, and accept Israel's legitimacy as a Jewish state. But to imagine that the settlements account for even a fraction of the rage that has inhabited the radical Muslim mind since the days of Qutb is fantasy: The settlements are merely the latest politically convenient cover behind which lies a universe of hatred. If the administration's aim is to appease our enemies, it will get more mileage out of banning Lady Gaga than by applying the screws on Israel. It should go without saying that it ought to do neither.

Stephens is right of course. Any excuse will do for the Muslim Fascists. Jew hate is one of the hallmarks of all fascisms, including the Arab version. Eradicate Israel and new 'grievances' will suddenly surface, since of course 12 million Jews live in the US, 3 million in Canada, 5 million in the UK.......

Israel has been retreating and bowing and scraping out of re-conquered lands since the mid 1980s. Muslim attacks have only increased due to Israeli appeasement and 'land for peace' or more likely, 'land for more rocket and homicide attacks'. More civilians die now in Israel than ever before. Appeasement does not work. Weakness is not strength.

The current situation on the West Bank is dire. The entire Arab mandate along the West Jordan is of course ruled by Hamas an organization whose charter calls for the annihilation of Israel. Why would any upright walking hominid give these fascists more land ? The West Bank is vital for Israel's defensive line and as a security perimeter.

Only the really smart people believe that by denuding your defences, and compromising your security needs, that the enemy will love you. Fascists do of course prey on weakness. They are eradicated only by strength. Nothing in Arab or Muslim history has indicated any interest in living peaceably with Jews who have created a modern world political-economy which has much benefited Arabs.

2 million Arabs have flocked and stayed in Israel knowing full well that they live in a far superior society. The original Arab population in 1947 was 600.000. they have tripled their numbers in Israel, because the Jewish state offers the best hope in an Arab world riven by ignorance, superstition, fascist violence, self-created poverty and unmitigated immorality. Why does an inferior collection of pre-modern pagans have any rights or claims against Israel ? The best thing that could happen to the Arabs on the West Bank would be the complete inclusion of their illegal Arab settlements into Israel, the integration of their failure into the successful Jewish system; and the abolition of Hamas and Arab fascism.

In other words, the really smart people, as usual, have it all backasswards.
