So, what do we do?
The Palestinian national movement is so completely infected by Adolf Hitler’s Nazi ideology that it is hard to separate legitimate national aspirations from the illegitimate insanity of murderous hatred and violence. Palestinian nationalism reflects the violent, genocidal racism of its founders, which means that the root of the problem is… the roots.
However, if you cut out the roots, the tree will die. The movement will die.
I’m not against the death of the Palestinian national movement in its current form, but if you chart such a course, you will need to replace the movement with something else. You will need an alternative that will be acceptable to the Palestinians – an alternative that they will LIKE.

I find it interesting that the Grand Mufti, Amin al-Husseini (also spelled al-Husayni) participated – either activily or passively – in the Armenian genocide of 1915 to 1916.
Based on when/where/what he was at the time, there was just no way that he couldn’t have played an active role in the murder of 1.5 million Orthodox Christians by the Muslim army in Turkey. What I need is more evidence to complete the picture. All that I can say right now is that circumstantial evidence is damning.

Maybe I should call this series of blogs Muslim Nazism week. I don’t want to call Islam the new voice of Nazi ideology in the world, but we don’t seem to have much choice – because it is followers of Hitler who have the leadership in Islam today.
Literally.
People bandy about the word ‘Nazi’ today, and use it to attack anyone that they strongly disagree with.
THAT IS NOT WHAT I AM DOING HERE.
Let me make this very clear. Whenever I use the term ‘Nazi’ and ‘Nazi ideology’, I literally mean the ideology presented in ‘Mein Kampf’, the ideology of Adolf Hitler.

Hitler was not the originator of the philosophy of racial supremacy, of racial superiority. He’s just it’s most eloquent spokesman.
And to be fair, this evil barbaric ideology exists to some degree in all of us. Who of us hasn’t thought/said at one time or another that if a certain kind of person were somewhere else, your neighborhood/state/country would be a better place?
All of us, at one time or another, have said/thought/expressed this, and it’s evil. It’s one of many reasons why we are but a step away from the barbarians that we struggle against. As the saying goes…

I LOVE bookstores. I can stand for hours meandering along the shelves, leafing through books on everything. Finance, History, psychology, philosophy, political science, medicine, photography… I will, and do, browse them all. I suspect that THIS is why London is my favorite city. Lots of bookstores there.
And, what you find in a bookstore is usually a reflection of what people want to read. That’s why, when I’m in an Arab country, I try to find anything that is anti-Jewish. One disturbing find is several Arabic versions of ‘Mein Kampf’ by your friend and mine, Adolf Hitler.
