Jews Rule The World!

Jews Rule The World!

Such originality! Where have we heard this before? Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad believes that he knows why Islamic countries are so backward. It's the Jews fault.

“The Europeans killed 6 million Jews out of 12 million, but today the Jews rule the world by proxy,” Mahathir said, opening the meeting of Islamic leaders from 57 nations. “They get others to fight and die for them.”

DISPUTES OVER DOGMA
He told the audience of sheiks, emirs, kings and presidents that Muslims had the richest civilization in the world during Europe’s Dark Ages, but disputes over dogma — instead of embracing technology and science — had left them weak and divided.
“Because we are discouraged from learning of science and mathematics as giving us no merit for the afterlife, today we have no capacity to produce our own weapons for our defense. We have to buy our weapons from our detractors and enemies,” he said.
The leaders gave Mahathir a standing ovation afterward.


Was he condemned? Well, moderate Arab nation Egypt didn't think so. “I think it was a shrewd and very deep assessment of the situation,” said Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Maher, without commenting on the remarks about the Jews. “I think he elaborated a program of action that is wide and very important. I hope the Islamic countries will be able to follow this very important road map.”

And how about our supposed hand-puppet in Afghanistan? “It is great to hear Prime Minister Mahathir speak so eloquently on the problems of the ummah (Muslim world) and ways to remedy them,” Mohammed Karzai said. “His speech was an eye-opener to a lot of us and that is what the Islamic world should do.”

What was our reaction to this latest bombast from the religion of peace? According to MSNBC: "U.S. Ambassador to Malaysia Marie Huhtala declined to comment on Mahathir’s speech."
