{{Cquote|…Who was actually ethnically cleansed in the Middle East and threatened with genocide by people allied with the Nazis? In 1940, there were about 1 million Jews in the Arab-ruled countries and in Iran. Today, there are only about 25,000 Jews in these countries.
The Arab-Nazi link is well-established, extending well beyond the Mufti of Jerusalem and Adolf Hitler. Most Arabs aligned themselves with the Nazis, who inspired political movements such as the Ba'ath parties of Syria and Iraq. Sami al - Joundi, one of the founders of the ruling Syrian Ba'ath Party, recalled:
"We were racists. We admired the Nazis . We were immersed in reading Nazi literature and books".
Gamal Abdul Nasser was a member of Young Egypt, a party that imitated the Nazis with its own version of storm troopers, torch processions and slogans.
Former Nazis served in Nasser's army and secret police, and his personal bodyguard was SS General Oskar Dirlewanger.
Nasser said on 1 May 1964: "During the Second World War, our sympathies were with the Germans ... the lie[sic] of the six million murdered Jews is not taken seriously by anybody."
[...]
Even today, Hitler's Mein Kampf ranks high on the best-seller list amongst Palestinian Arabs. The preface to the Arabic edition claims that his "theories of nationalism, dictatorship and race... are advancing especially within our Arabic states".
When Palestinian police first greeted Yasser Arafat in the self-rule areas, they offered the infamous Nazi salute.
In April this year, a columnist in the Egyptian government daily Al-Akbar defiantly repeated his "thanks to Hi tler, of bl[sic]essed memory[sic], who on behalf of the Palestinians, revenged in advanced against the most vile criminals on the face of the earth. Although we do have a complaint attains him for his revenge[sic] on them was not enough".}}
