Haj Mohammed Amin Al-Husseini (1895-1973) was the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem during the early 20th century and during World War II.
Life
In 1929 Al-Husseini began to agitate the Arabs to riot against the Jewish community, distributing leaflets and stirring up anti-Jewish sentiment. Among these were leaflets stating that the Jews were planning to take over the al-Aqsa Mosque.[1] These tirades led to the 1929 Hebron massacre, in which 67 Jews were slaughtered.
An outspoken anti-Semite, he had a very close friendship with Adolf Hitler and visited Islamic SS units, such as the Handschar Brigade. Al-Husseini also supported Hitler's deadly "Final Solution." In 1945, Al-Husseini was captured with many Nazis at Nuremberg and was labeled a war criminal, but he escaped and fled to Egypt, where he lived until his death in 1973.
Highlights
Began his dangerous incitement since at least the 1920.

5. Met Adolf Hitler in November-28-1941, whose agents had to convince themselves he is not "pure arab" in blood[11] yet, the nazi leader still refused to shake his hand[12] or drink coffee with him[13] for considering Arabs inferior. They agreed on cooperation against Jews.[14]

Legacy
Terrorist Yasser Arafat was a distant cousin of him and always revered him as his beloved hero and mentor. In April 1985 Arafat explained he took “immense pride” in being Al-Husseini’s student and emphasized that the Palestine Liberation Organization “is continuing the path” he set.[21]
On January 4, 2013, President of the so-called "State of Palestine" Mahmoud Abbas, spoke glowingly of the legacy of the Godfather of the PLO, the Mufti of Jerusalem.[22]
Further reading
Among his admirers, was: Sufi Hamid[23][24] (convert to Islam), known in the 1930's as Black Hitler calling to drive out Italians and Jews in NY.[25]
Among his hemchmen:
1. Issa Nakhleh, the liar holocaust denier already in 1972[26][27] (uttering his vile lying denial, only less than 3 decades after the horrors). Then denying again in 1978 to disrupt the historic peace summit between Begin and Sadat at Camp David.[28]. Linked to major neo nazis, spoke at holocaust deniers IHR[29] on behalf of Muslim Congress[30], worked with the neo Nazis[31], wrote for them and defended infamous denier Ditlieb.
2. Ahmad Shukairy, on the Nazi side during WW2[32], fighting for them in Mufti's fanatical gang[33], known for his calls for genocide[34][35][36], and for inventing[37] apartheid slander in Oct.17.1961, a little over a year before he saluted Nazi gang[38][39], which caused his removal[40] from UN post.
