Nazism at Arab Palestinians

النازية من قبل العرب الفلسطينيين

נאציות של ערבים פלסטינים

This page is mainly about admiration (ideology, sentiments), adopting of Hitler, Hitlerism etc. By Arab "Palestinians". It is often also accompanied with belittling the Holocaust.

This is not about politically motivated calling someone a "Nazi" in a shallow matter. But about the real original, 'authentic' unique in its historic evil - Nazism.

Note, Hitler was clear about his disdain for the Arabs, as inferiors.^[1]^[2]^[3] Hitler loathed Arabs, he once described them as "lacquered half-apes who ought to be whipped."^[4]^[5]^[6] And the Grand Mufti al-Husseini himself has actually said 'that after the Jews, the Germans would destroy the Arabs,' "he knew this," says his granddaughter.^[7]

It's why the Mufti's chasing caused Nazis' discomfort at least in the beginning.^[8]

Even Falastin realized and noted in 1940:^[9] "Hitler who invented the theory of race and who made the Arabs fourteenth level."

Notorious PFLP hijacker and admitted terrorist^[10] who has been still promoting violence 2014-16^[11] Laila Khaled: "At first, I admired Hitler because I thought he was the enemy of the Jews. Later I found out he classified Arabs as sub-humans, only slightly above the gypsies and the Jews."^[12] [Not that Hitler himself was "true" or even "consistent" at his twisted "belief." White Russians were not included in his "theory"... which neo-fascists in Russia are upset about.^[13] But that isn't the point, of course].

Nazi era

Arabs writings of Swastikas and support for Hitler in the 1930s anti-British revolt, anti-Jewish rampage

With barely two months of Hitler rise to power, the Mufti rushed already to forge contact with the Nazi regime, March 31, 1933.^[14]^[15]

In Nov, 1933, it was reported, a direct contact between the German Nazis and the Palestinian Arabs, Arab Riot Leaders, revealed by Nazis.^[16]

By Dec 1933, Nazism spread by young Arabs, some painted the swastika on a glass and various utensils in Arab cafes in Jaffa. When a young Arab drank a toast for Arab Nazism and Jews protested it, Azmi Nashashibi, the deputy governor of Jaffa, intervened against preventing these acts.^[17]

Nazi Anti-Jewish propaganda picked up greater speed in Arab Palestine since 1934, especially in boycotting Jews.^[18]^[19]

Soon, the swastika is seen more and more on Arab houses, on Arab cars, and even shoe polishers near the Jaffa Gate in Jerusalem adorned crates in this painting.^[20]

An Arab exporting firm, wrapped his oranges marked "Saint Elijah, Jaffa," in paper bearing a picture of the Muhammad surrounded by swastikas.^[21]

In spring of 1934, extremist Arab nationalists intended to form the Palestinian Nazi Party, which aimed to fight Jews in coordination with the Nazi Party in Germany, in Israel, many swastikas began to appear on Arab homes and their cars.^[22] Arab students returning from studying in Europe were determined to found the Arab Nazi party.^[23]

An Apr 25, 1935 report:^[24]

From time to time, anti-Jewish slogans written in Arabic and German, and embellished with the swastika, appear on vacant walls and boardings in different Palestine towns, enjoining a boycott of Jewish goods and enterprises. Their effect has been nil except to leave a great deal of annoyance among young and ardent Jews, who endeavor to trace the perpetrators of such nuisances. According to well-informed local quarters , the origin of these throwaways is in a central Nazi propaganda ascent for Palestine who, it is believed, works through Arab Fascists. An attempt at Fascism was started some eighteen months ago as the only hope of Arab salvation in the present state of the Arab nationalist cause, as one young leader said. The object was to introduce an ultra-nationalistic spirit among the Arab youth. But it was more closely modelled on the National-Socialist brand of Fascism than the Italian, because the German politics embodied anti-Semitism as the central motive.

Nazi propaganda in Arabic floods the market in Palestine. Hitler admiration is spread, his Mein Kampf especially draws Arabs' "attention", Ahmad Shukeiri and others' Istiqlal Party (fans of fascism^[25]) its newspaper al-Difa'a became a Nazi propaganda pamphlet. ^[26] and since Istiqlal began to reorganize, it has adopted Nazi ideas - reported Templars’ paper: “This party's publication shows a clear sympathy for Nazism and fights fiercely against the Jewish boycott of Germany."^[27]

In 1933, the al-Difa' (Ad-Difaa) الدفاع was dubbed: The Arab-Nazi newspaper.^[28]

Overview:^[26]

All parties were dragged along by the extremists of the Istiqlal, whose newspaper al-Difa'a became a Nazi propaganda pamphlet.
They made efforts to attract the masses with national recommendations, strong hatred of Jews and extreme demands from the authorities. The fascist regimes in Germany and Italy were a source of inspiration and imitation to the national Arab movement. As early as 1932, the newspaper Al-Carmel wrote: "The Nazi movement is a symbol, it is a source of hope - Arab nationalism must adopt the methods of its leaders in their pursuit of independence and freedom."
The Mufti's bulletin al-Jamaa al-Arabiya's continued to incite the public against the government, expressing its support for fascist Italy, which the newspaper said had adopted sympathetic treatment of Arabs and the Muslim world "and supported their national aspirations."

In March 1935 the Husseinis formed a party, called the Palestinian Arab Party. It was, as its president Jamal Husseini freely boasted, inspired by German Nazism. It included a 'youth troop', modelled on the Hitler Yout and for a while actually called, the 'Nazi Scouts'.^[29]

Until the rise of the Nazi party in Germany, the Templars had good ties with their Jewish neighbors. Then things changed drastically since 1933. They then spread anti-Semitic propaganda and planned to import weapons from Germany for use by Arabs against the Jews. Yet, not all Templars were pro Nazi. The opponents were pressured. As a German with a swastika band around his arm, the Arabs he passed "saluted him with admiration." ^[30]

On Jan 26, 1939, a large shipment of Hitler’s "Mein Kampf" in Arab translation arrived in Palestine from Egypt. ^[31]

Admiration of Nazism among the Arabs, expressed its urge also through groups, the Najjadah, like the Futuwwa and other groups, trying to emulate Nazism or fascism.^[32]

Historian:^[33]

... the Husseinis in March 1935 formed the Palestinian Arab Party, whose platform for resistance to the establishment of a Jewish National Home. It set up its own youth corps. al-Futuwwa (the name of an association of Arab knights during the Middle Ages). which resembled Germany’s Hitler Youth and was officially designated the “Nazi Scouts.”
At the founding meeting on February 11, 1936, Jamal al- Husseini, a principal aide of Hajj Amin, declared that Hitler had stalled out with only six followers and now had sixty million. The first seventy al-Futuwwa recruits took the following oath: “Life — my right: independence — my aspiration: Arabism — my principle: Palestine — my country, and there is no room in it for any but Arabs. In this I believe and Allah is my witness.” The Husseini-Nazi connection… through the 1930s and early 1940s. Indeed, as early as March 31, 1933, two months after Hitler's assumption of power, Amin alHusseini told the German consul in Jerusalem that "the Muslims inside and outside Palestine welcome the new German regime and hope for the extension of the fascist anti-democratic, governmental system to other countries." In the name of the Arabs, Husseini expressed a desire to join in the Nazis' anti-Jewish boycott.

In summer of 1935, Arabs in Haifa founded Nazi club.^[34]

When Hitler proclaimed the Nuremberg Race Laws in September 1935, a number of Palestinian Arabs sent telegrams congratulating him.^[15]^[35]

Al-Husseini's Arab Revolt of 1936 took place against the background of the swastika: Arab leaflets and posters prominently displayed the Nazi symbol; the youth organization of the Mufti's political party paraded as "Nazi-scouts," and Arab children greeted each other with the Nazi salute.^[36]

In March, 1937 report, Arab apprentices Admire Hitler,^[37] and by May 1937, "All Arabs" celebrated Muhammad's birthday "Hitler and Duce Cheered." - NY Times.^[38] Described at the time in JTA^[39] May, 1937: "Swastikas Fly As Arabs Mark Mohammed’s Birthday."

Arab children thronged the teeming section’s narrow, winding streets, shouting: “Death to the High Commissioner (Sir Arthur Grenfell Wauchope)! Death to the Jews!”
Booklets explaining Nazi methods of forcing Jews from the Reich are being distributed freely.
Arabs in Haifa and Jaffa prepared for the birthday celebrations, scheduled for today and tomorrow, by proclaiming a work stoppage and organizing demonstrations.
The Government Education Department issued orders prohibiting Arab pupils to participate in the demonstrations. Arabs newspapers, however, are urging the pupils to disobey.

Nazi Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels praised the Arabs' "national .. conscience," noting that "Nazi flags fly in Palestine and they adorn their houses with Swastikas and portraits of Hitler.^[40]

In 1937, Walter Doehle, German consul in Jerusalem, wrote:^[41]:

“Palestinian Arabs in all social strata have great sympathies for the new Germany and its Führer … If a person identified himself as a German when faced with threats from an Arab crowd, this alone generally allowed him to pass freely. But when some identified themselves by making the ‘Heil Hitler’ salute, in most cases the Arabs’ attitude became expressions of open enthusiasm, and the German gave ovations, to which the Arabs responded loudly.”

The most prominent Falastin in 1937 sided openly with Fascist Italy.
In 1938, one hundred Palestine Arabs visited the Nazi party conference in Nuremberg. Needless to say, how great was the effect of the German victories, in the first period of the war, on the Arabs of the country, and how difficult was then the impression of their defeat: an Egyptian, who visited the country in the days after the conquest of Berlin wrote: "The people cry in the morning and sob in the evening. And blow to their cheek between morning and evening."^[42]

[Worth mentioned: Among the collaborators with Hitler was the Mufti, a small fish. The Norwegians had Vidkun Quisling, the Belgians had Leon Degrelle, the Dutch the Waffen-SS unit, the largest outside Germany, the Ukrainians Stepan Bandera, the Russians General Andrey Andreyevich Vlasov and Azov Battalion, and more and more. Each of these names was a much more "respectable" collaborator with the Third Reich and its plans than the Mufti. ^[43]]

Nazism at Arabs: Ideology too, not just "practical" allies.

Historian:^[8]

The evaluation of Arab Nazism in the 1930s, with Hitler's rise to power, must be seen against this background of identity values. The common explanation as if there was a common interest of hostility to France and Britain, which united allies against a common enemy and allegedly pushed the Arabs into Hitler's arms is only a partial explanation, but as a basic claim it is tainted with excessive simplicity and historical distortion. Admiration for Hitler and his party existed on the Arab street as early as the days of the Fuhrer's struggle in the 1920s, and it erupted with great enthusiasm immediately upon his rise to power in 1933. The first congratulatory telegrams he received the day after his appointment as chancellor came to him from Wolf, the German consul in Jerusalem, following which warm greetings flowed from other Arab countries.
Although the violation of the Versailles Agreements was a blatant defiance of France and Britain, it came only in 1936, with the violation of the ban on armaments of Germany, and in 1938 with the "Anschluss" - annexation of Austria.
In 1933, and in the period that lasted at least until the attack on Poland in September 1939, there was no reason to assume that Hitler, an "Anglophile" who based (in Mein Kampf) Germany's long-term strategy of cooperating with Great Britain as a principle of the new world order, as he envisioned it, would the one who would save the Arabs from English colonism.
As soon as Hitler came to power, parties were formed in Arab countries that were imitations of National Socialism...

Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem^[44] (who chose to "believe" the old bloodlibel canard of ritual murder, since his youth^[45]) his nazi style of hatred was manifested already in 1937. As a venomous brochure was distributed at the Bludan conference, attended by over 400 Arabs in Sep. 1937, entitled "Islam and Jewry." It has been described as history's "first text that propagated sheer Jew-hatred in an Islamic context by mixing selected anti-Jewish episodes of Mohammed’s life with the so-called wickedness [sic] of Jews in the 20th century."^[46] At that conference the Mufti was elected pan Arab president. The brochure has been translated into German in 1938.^[47]

Through their led massacre on Iraqi Jews in 1941, al-Kailani and al-Husseini wanted to signal, there in a 2,500-year-old community, how Arabia’s Jews should be treated.^[48]

Explained:^[49]

From the way of nature came the struggle for the Land of Israel and instilled a great deal of venom and power in all those elements of Islam that were hostile to Jews and Judaism. Although it is quite clear that these foundations intensified in the Middle East for many years before the establishment of the State of Israel. The status of the Jewish minorities in the Arab world, as well as the status of Christians and non-Arab groups, became increasingly intolerable (and unrelated to Zionism) in the face of pan-Arabism, unique nationalism, overt anti-Semitism, and the resurgence of Muslim fanaticism.
All these trends, which have omitted the ground beneath the feet of the old Jewish communities in Arab countries, drew their power out of a common disgrace to the West and its emancipatory heritage. For it was not Islam but the hated colonialists who granted equal rights to the Jewish and Christian minorities in the Middle East. Against this background it is easy to understand why there was Nazism (and especially its anti-Jewish elements) to arouse such enthusiasm and admiration among the Arabs in the 1930s and 1940s. The words written by Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Mufti of Jerusalem and the leader of the Arabs of Israel, to Adolf Hitler on January 20, 1941, did not in any way contradict the general tone of the Arab nationalism of the period. "Arab nationalism owes Your Excellency a debt of gratitude and of recognition for having repeatedly [again and again] brought up in ringing speeches the 'question of Palestine.'"
In fact, the "question of Palestine" was intended only a marginal place in Hitler's policy and German policy until the outbreak of the war, although the Mufti did not err in seeing Hitler and German leaders as 'anti-Zionists', as opposed to the Stalinist, Trotskyist and leftist fabrications.

Husseini met Hitler on 28 Nov, 1941 whereby the Nazi leader also made clear his extermination plan.^[48]^[50]

"Through his radio broadcasts and other work during World War II.. instilled Nazi images of the Jew,"^[51] and called to kill the Jews wherever they are. He had at least six stations - Berlin, Zeissen, Bari, Rome, Tokyo and Athens.^[52] During his "Holy War," he encouraged his followers to display the swastika on their posters and fliers, vehicles flying the swastika flag were ensured protection when driving through neighborhoods that the grand mufti's followers controlled, they taught children mobilized to back the revolt to give the stiff-armed Nazi salute in greeting.^[53]

"Allah in heaven; on earth, Hitler!" - was WWII-era Arabic saying.^[52]

In his book, on one hand, the Mufti lied about facts, such as denying his visiting concentration camps as photos showed him wrong,^[48] or his statements he quoted as “facts" what Himmler told him. Yet, he couldn’t hide his hatred, writing, “Hitler hated the Jews ... Hitler is now avenging this accursed [sic] race …”^[54]

Palestinian-Arab scholar Edward Said, has conceded that Husseini "represented the Palestinian Arab national consensus." He had "the backing of political parties that functioned in Palestine," and was "recognised in some form by Arab governments as the voice of the Palestinian people."^[15]^[55]

Also Mufti's then aid Ahmad Shukeiri [Al-Shukairy, Shukairy, shuqayri]^[56] (who even rationalized the Holocaust in 1946,^[57] has spread vile Nazi type of propaganda at the UN^[58] and had even promoted neo-Nazi stormtroop gang^[59]^[60]^[61] who guarded monsters: Adolf Eichmann, 'Dr. Death' - J. Mengele,^[62] he promoted them after the world was shocked to hear these nazis tortured, carved on a Jewish girl swastika as revenge for killing Eichmann), as well as other Arab icons^[35] including: Rasem Khalidi,^[63] Emil Ghouri, Wasef Kamal,^[64] helped Hitler at least from 1941 on.

The (Jews paid Arabs to join British army,^[65] a large portion of Arabs that did fight in Palestine came from across the Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, to the recruitment bureaus in Palestine, and many of them enlisted with the intention of acquiring weapons for themselves,^[66] and there is that Shukairy's testimony^[67] in his book about almost no one agreeing in 1940 to help in British war effort. In any case) 1941 poll^[68] showed Palestine Arabs overwhelmingly supported the Nazis.

The Falastin since 1932/3.^[69]^[70] During some period of time, it openly carried pro Hitlerism. During other periods, for example to avoid discipline, censorship and or penalties, it, for a while, used sneaky tricky ways, that is, to glorify Nazis by carefully selected "reports" elaborating on Axis advances and 'excite' its readers on Hitler while cherry picking negative or critical of the Allies steps citing sources from Western countries, so the investigators wouldn't act. In addition, often inserting "news" as a subtitle under those articles, as if its source is the same... ^[32]^[20] In all, Falastin, as well as almost all other Arab newspapers in Palestine cheered for Hitler^[71] and in 1942, many Arabs in Palestine reacted with 'open joy' upon hearing Jews' fate in Europe. ^[72]

CIA Report Aug 1942:^[73]

A majority of the Palestinian Arabs was fiercely "anti-Jewish" and saw in the approach of Rommel an ideal opportunity to murder all Jews their seize their property.

Professor, historian:^[67]

Shuqayri was expressing the attitudes and feelings of his countrymen... He describes the great excitement with which they used to listen to German and Italian broadcasts, how he would follow during the night the military communiqués, marking on a map the places being occupied by the victorious Germans and meet his friends the following morning to discuss triumphs exceeding those of the previous day: Our sympathies were with the Axis powers being led by Hitler from victory to victory, and with our sympathies went our prayers for the victory of Germany and her allies, and defeat for Britain... When the British government announced the formation of a Palestine force to help the war effort, our young men received the durective: do not join the Palestine force, and the response was quasi-unanimous.

The Mufti had an entire group of "Palestinian" Arabs working for the Nazis. A number of Arab doctors, who were members of a Palestinian and Syrian nationalists group, even served in the Nazi army, at least one of them in an extermination camp.^[74] (Arab or Arabs serving in Nazi extermination camp in Europe is apart from nazi camps in Arab lands,^[75] where THE torturers of Jews were Arabs.^[76]).

The far reaching destruction of the Mufti included: interference against Jewish children who were about to escape deaths;^[77] his led instigation, Futwwah Arab Hitler-youth gang's agitation, prelude to the brutal Farhud (al-Farhoud) massacre in June-1941 Baghdad,^[78] where as many as 1,000 Jews could have died.^[79] And responsible for thousands of deaths through his led Muslim SS troops.^[41]

Worth mentioning his failed plan of establishing crematoria in the Dothan Valley.^[80] He also visited in a "tour" of at least one concentration camp.^[81] And his ‘’Operation Atlas’’ in 1944, where according to some versions it included a plan to poison a quarter of a Million Jews in Tel Aviv - failed. ^[54]

Nazis' planned 'extermination of the Jews in Palestine,'^[50] stopped with El Alamein defeat, relied on help that they awaited from many local Arabs ready to serve as willing accomplices of the Germans in the Middle East.^[82]

The 7,000-8,000 moderates, the Mufti had eliminated

Explained:^[83]

He was fascist in nature and feudal in his social composition. He never cared about the broad strata of the people not being represented in the leadership and became the franchise of the rich and aggressive.
Arab nationalism in Palestine was for the Arabs what Hitler was for the German people. While Nazism destroyed the socialists, liberals, communists, democrats, who had an independent opinion within his Reich, Haj Amin al-Husseini waged a brutal campaign of extermination against any opposition among his people.
Since he was unable to set up ... where his opponents would be tortured, he simply ordered their elimination. During the three years of the uprising under his leadership, between 7,000 and 8,000 Palestinian Arabs were killed by his mercenaries: party leaders, clerics, police and officers, teachers, journalists, mayors and city councilors, intelligence chiefs, and muhtar of villages. Many were exterminated along with their families. Arab nationalism "borrowed" from the dictatorial regimes the most horrific method of taking over the psyche of the people: terrorism.

Safe to conclude the Mufti's victims stand, had their lives been spared.

Gilbert Ashcar - fallacy

The sugar coating of the Mufti, Agenda-driven "author", Gilbert Achcar in his writing: hiding, distorting the awful true Goliath Arab nazism.^[84]

Authors have put it: The Arab Palestinians supporters of Hamas are 'damned to play the role of the oppressed for whom intellectuals such as Gilbert Achcar tirelessly seek excuses.'

Muslims' antisemitism and holocaust denial Muslim, as oppose to others, are expected to uphold "appalling views", which some have defined as racism. ^[85]

Professors conclude:^[86] "This is a book in which an author from the political left seeks to protect the dogmas of Western anti-Zionism from the reality of Arab anti-Semitism."

In his book: He sugar-coates the sheer Jew-hater ex-Mufti with a blanket "anti immigration to Palestine" theme, and the calls to the Muslim world during the war to "kill the Jews," "wherever you find them" was about "immigration" or the Mufti's own account in his memoires reiterating debunked blood libels, for example?

In page 44 he quotes from O.A. Najjar about Filastin paper. But those quotes are really mainly an anti Zionist argumentative reply. Not a word regarding the overwhelming support and wide enthusiasm for Hitler, in and of itself.

In fact, historian Haggai Erlich ["The Middle East Between the Two Wars," Volume 2; Volume 5, Open University of Israel, 2002, p.81]: 'Even the newspaper Filastin ("Palestine"), which criticized Mussolini, supported Hitler, as did almost all other newspapers.'

The sheer public display of saluting Hitler in Arab Palestine (including 1934 and 1937) speaks volume. Or Ahmad Shukeiri's testimony in his book of him and his surrounding praying for Hitler's victory 1940. (Before he joined to fight for Hitler as reported in US Congress 1961). Or the poll in 1941 where some 80% of Arab Palestine supported the Nazi victory.^[84]

Noted historian:^[87]

Achcar takes aim at the scholars... who have written major works on Nazi policy toward the Middle East in World War II and on the Arab response to those policies. He criticizes these historians of Nazi-Arab collaboration for contributing to a “hegemonic narrative” according to which a majority of Arabs are portrayed by these authors of “anti-Arab propaganda” as having supported Nazism in the 1930s. For anyone who has read the works that he is referring to, The Arabs and the Holocaust is a frustrating book to read. Achcar criticizes texts without fairly presenting their arguments and their evidence. From reading Achcar, the reader would be unaware that in fact none of these scholars engages in generalizations about all Arabs. None of them assumes that opposition to Zionism was, in and of itself, tantamount to sympathy for Nazism, or that it was only the product of anti-Semitism. And much of what they discovered and examined forms the empirical foundation for Achcar’s own study...
The Arabs and the Holocaust has elements of candor and courage. It is a salutary development that someone with Achcar’s political views acknowledges the realities of the Nazi-Islamist wartime collaboration. It is important to be reminded of the history of a secular Arab leftism and liberalism that opposed fascism, Nazism, as well as Zionism. Achcar undermines these virtues of his book with superficial, unfair, and unreliable readings of those with whom he disagrees, above all those who fought fascism and Nazism on the basis of secular, liberal, and even leftist values yet still support Zionism. His attack on these scholars is neither a contribution to scholarship nor a contribution to moderation.

Professor in left-wing intellectual magazine criticizes heavily Achcar's treatment of Arab anti-Semitism, his attempts to rationalize, the excuse of ignorance, his ignoring such sweeping factors in Arab Palestine such as the poll of over 80% supporting Germany.^[88]

That the pro-Nazi Mufti represented the consensus of Palestine Arabs and had major backing of parties there. Per E. Said's concession.^[15]^[55]

Nazis' planned 'extermination of the Jews in Palestine,' (stopped by Desert Rats), relied on help that they awaited from many local Arabs ready to serve as willing accomplices of the Germans in the Middle East.^[82]

Reaction of most Arabs that heard of the fate of the Jews in Europe, 1942 - 'open joy.'^[72]

If one Communist or two wrote something against Zionism and Fascism at the same time, or the that there were Arab soldiers who were paid by Jews (who were the ones mobilized en masse) to join the Brits - do not change the overwhelming facts. Though Falastin & Ad-Difa changed tunes according to power etc.^[25] yet, enough was the glorification of Hitler in 1932 and in 1933 to plant the seeds of venom, nor have they become less anti-Jewish while changing ("strategic") tunes. The alarming of pro-Hitlerism "fresh" after the war, such as in Ad-Difa^[89] and Alwahda^[90] in 1946, proves this too - the hatred - unrelated to the winning side.

Naturally, Arab-Palestinian Leader Farouq Qaddoumi stated: We Supported The Nazis In WWII - as a general description.^[91]

Post Nazi period, recent

Nazism admiration never ceased.^[92]

Journalist:^[93] In the end, despite Hitler's best efforts, a grand Nazi-Islamic alliance wasn't to be... Yet the Nazis did succeed in one thing: poisoning the mind of many a Muslim against Jews. Anti-Semitic tropes propagated by the Third Reich, from medieval Christian blood libels to virulent conspiracy theories, have been grafted seamlessly onto old Islamic anti-Jewish prejudices, thereby gaining a new lease on life in the Muslim world.

The truth is that, internally, the Arab world, and especially the Palestinians, have never hidden their sympathy for Nazism... But for foreign purposes, the Palestinian Arab movement and its supporters in the West present the opposite view.^[94]

Hitler’s Mein Kampf book was a hit as soon as it was published in 1999 - in 2000 the fifth edition was printed. According to British historian, Hitler's admiration for the Arab world stems first and foremost from the ease with which he succeeded in exterminating Jews.

A study by the German government among Arab youth in the State of Israel revealed that Hitler is at the top of the list of young boys' figures they admire.^[95]

There is an "intersection between the mufti and his Nazi camp visits and today's hatred of Israel and Jewish symbols."^[96]

Indeed Nazi symbolism, is never uncommon^[97]^[98]^[99] at Arab Palestinians. And "too many Palestinians continue to play the Nazi card over and over again in some creatively destructive ways in the media, mosques and madrassas."^[100]

That, in addition to, using Nazi propaganda to indoctrinate hate at children^[101]^[102] and belittling the Holocaust.^[103]^[104]^[105]

Historian:^[52]

Although the Allies destroyed the Third Reich, what has lived on is the Nazi spirit. This spirit of hatred festered through the relationship between Amin Al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, and Hitler.

Nazi Mufti today

The Grand Mufti is still glorified, such as by "moderate" Arab Palestinian Mahmoud Abbas in 2013,^[106] and in 2016 at National Security Forces of - PA.^[107] And in 2019 a PA official: "Nazi-collaborator Mufti is leader and 'role model'"^[108] Though, for political purposes, the Palestinian Authority has been -generally- downplaying "its Nazi orientation."^[109] Especially to the outside world.^[94]

The PA has named at least one school after the Nazi collaborator - the Amin Al-Husseini Elementary School in El-Bireh, the current PA Mufti has honored his predecessor by laying a wreath on his grave, and the PA National Security Forces have highlighted Al-Husseini on Facebook and in 2019 on the anniversary of his death, Abbas’ advisor praised Nazi collaborator as “role model”.^[110]

Still, more often, while the PLO chose trying to deal with Mufti true nazi record by pushing a vicious blame lie on the Holocaust, Hamas is more expressing the line that the Mufti's war was "just."^[47]

‘’’Contradictory anti-Semitism’’’

Islamic Anti-Semitism today: denies and or diminishes the Holocaust while contradictory using Nazi symbols which proves that the Holocaust did happen, then at times attaching the label on its enemy - is all motivated by hatred and an all out frustration that the Mufti’s support for extermination became a disappointment in history as Nazism became associated with evil. ^[111]^[95]

Eichmann-ism

Outrageously rotten to the core, as the official “moderate" PA flatters a three generation family of terrorists who adopted the name Eichmann, inspired by that arch Nazi butcher.^[112]

Nazi display

The outrage at Nazi display is greater when official "Palestinians" cheer to it or in almost all cases don't intervene. Far worse is when "Palestinian" official police are the ones perpetrating it. Such as on its official media, and "Palestinian" police,^[113] security.^[114] Unlike one isolated rare incident by a loner on the opposite side in 1997, with a drawing that offended Muslims, when she was condemned across the board in Israel and encarcerared for three years.^[115] At times the Palestinian Authority for example promoted Nazi symbolism events, without directly commenting on it.^[116]

At the same time, Arab-Palestinian moderates' perversion of the Holocaust is alarming at least since the 1980s.^[117]

The evaluation of Arab Nazism in the 1930s, with Hitler's rise to power, must be seen against this background of identity values. The common explanation as if there was a common interest of hostility to France and Britain, which united allies against a common enemy and allegedly pushed the Arabs into Hitler's arms is only a partial explanation, but as a basic claim it is tainted with excessive simplicity and historical distortion. Admiration for Hitler and his party existed on the Arab street as early as the days of the Fuhrer's struggle in the 1920s, and it erupted with great enthusiasm immediately upon his rise to power in 1933. The first congratulatory telegrams he received the day after his appointment as chancellor came to him from Wolf, the German consul in Jerusalem, following which warm greetings flowed from other Arab countries.
Although the violation of the Versailles Agreements was a blatant defiance of France and Britain, it came only in 1936, with the violation of the ban on armaments of Germany, and in 1938 with the "Anschluss" - annexation of Austria.
In 1933, and in the period that lasted at least until the attack on Poland in September 1939, there was no reason to assume that Hitler, an "Anglophile" who based (in Mein Kampf) Germany's long-term strategy of cooperating with Great Britain as a principle of the new world order, as he envisioned it, would the one who would save the Arabs from English colonism.
As soon as Hitler came to power, parties were formed in Arab countries that were imitations of National Socialism. Such as a social-nationalist party in Syria led by Anton Saada, which openly and enthusiastically copied the hallmarks of Nazism. Saada, who used to present himself as the "Fuhrer of the Syrian nation," stated in his party platform that "the Syrians are a 'superior race' by their very nature."

When Hitler proclaimed the Nuremberg Race Laws in 1935, a number of Palestinian Arabs sent telegrams congratulating him... It was as early as 1933 that Husseini was in contact with the new regime in Germany. Within weeks of Hitler’s rise to power, the German consul-general in Palestine sent a telegram to Berlin reporting Husseini’s enthusiasm for Nazism and for the spread of fascism in the Middle East. When Husseini and several Arab sheiks met with the consul-general a few weeks later, he expressed his approval of the anti-Jewish boycott in Germany.
Very soon, the Husseini family had set up the Palestinian Arab Party, which was nicknamed the “Nazi Scouts.” Husseini’s brother, Jamal, was chairman of the Palestine Arab Party and a delegate to his brother’s Arab Higher Committee. It was this committee that led a led a campaign of boycotts and terror against Jews, and the bombings of British offices between 1936 and 1939.
In 1937, Husseini visited the Jerusalem German Consul, where he met with Eichmann to discuss “the Jewish question.” This meeting resulted in the Nazis agreeing to finance Husseini’s pogroms against the Jews in Palestine. Hitler publicly expressed his support for the Palestinian Arabs. This support was motivated by anti-Semitism and a suspicion of Britain’s colonial rule in the Middle East. In a speech made before the Reichstag in 1939, Hitler opined that Palestine is “occupied not by German troops but by the English,” and he accused British troops of oppressing the Arabs for “the benefit of J... interlopers.”… Palestinian scholar Edward Said, who is no friend of Israel, has conceded that Husseini “represented the Palestinian Arab national consensus.” He had “the backing of political parties that functioned in Palestine,” and was “recognised in some form by Arab governments as the voice of the Palestinian people.”

The Nazi spirit in Jaffa.
The author of "El Blug" in Jaffa tells of the strengthening of Nazi spirit among the young Arabs in the country. Unknowns painted the swastika on a glass and various utensils in Arab cafes in Jaffa.
The author tells of an incident that happened in the German cafe "Lawrence" located on the Jaffa-Tel Aviv border:
A young Arab man sitting with his friends in the same cafe spread a Nazi flag on the table and drank with the patrons a toast to the 'well being' of the Arab Nazism.
This upset the Jewish critics. However, Azmi Nashashibi, the deputy governor of Jaffa, intervened and said that here is a public place and if he does not like what he does, he has the authority to leave the place.
So the Jews left the place.

In Israel, many swastikas began to appear on Arab homes and their cars. At the end of 1935 the number of members of the Nazi party in Israel was two hundred and eighty.

From time to time, anti-Jewish slogans written in Arabic and German, and embellished with the swastika, appear on vacant walls and boardings in different Palestine towns, enjoining a boycott of Jewish goods and enterprises… According to well-informed local quarters , the origin of these throwaways is in a central Nazi propaganda ascent for Palestine who, it is believed, works through Arab Fascists. An attempt at Fascism was started some eighteen months ago as the only hope of Arab salvation in the present state of the Arab nationalist cause, as one young leader said. The object was to introduce an ultra-nationalistic spirit among the Arab youth. But it was more closely modelled on the National-Socialist brand of Fascism than the Italian, because the German politics embodied anti-Semitism as the central motive.

The multiplicity of parties led to an awakening in the Arab street. All parties were dragged along by the extremists of the Istiqlal, whose newspaper al-Difa'a became a Nazi propaganda pamphlet. They made efforts to attract the masses with national recommendations, strong hatred of Jews and extreme demands from the authorities. The fascist regimes in Germany and Italy were a source of inspiration and imitation to the national Arab movement. As early as 1932, the newspaper Al-Carmel wrote: "The Nazi movement is a symbol, it is a source of hope - Arab nationalism must adopt the methods of its leaders in their pursuit of independence and freedom."
The Mufti's bulletin al-Jamaa al-Arabiya's continued to incite the public against the government, expressing its support for fascist Italy, which the newspaper said had adopted sympathetic treatment of Arabs and the Muslim world "and supported their national aspirations."

Cultivating the "Fifth Column"
In an issue of March 15, 1935, "Templer das Wort" discusses ...
The newspaper noted that fascism and Nazism had become a flag in the eyes of the Arabs in their political war. Adolf Hitler - continued "Das Wort" - is portrayed in the consciousness of the Arabs as the great personality of the 20th century. The popularity of our Fuhrer is so great that no Arab is present in Palestine today Even he is just a simple peasant that Adolf Hitler's hearing had not reached his ears. There are reports of attempts to form fascist and Nazi parties in the Arab public. Although these parties are secretly established, the influence of Nazi ideas on the way of thinking and behaving of the new organizations is no secret. The education of the younger Arab generation is today founded on the foundations of Nazi education; The Istiqlal Party, which began to reorganize, also adopted Nazi ideas. "This party's publication shows a clear sympathy for Nazism and fights fiercely against the Jewish boycott of Germany."
At the same time, Nazi literature in Arabic was sold on the streets of Jerusalem and in other cities of Palestine. This literature, which dealt extensively with Jews, came to Palestine from Germany; Reich printing houses printed magazines and books in Arabic in millions of copies, and the Arab audience here read them eagerly. A special interest was aroused by Hitler's "Maine Kampf" in Arabic translation. It goes without saying that the British authorities were well aware of the contents of the registered mail bundles received from party activists. Important propaganda centers were used by German hotels and boarding houses, which used to be hosted The Nazi agents who came as tourists from the Reich.
It was not difficult to gain the hearts of the Arabs in Nazi propaganda...

In March 1935 the Husseinis also formed a party, called the Palestinian Arab Party. It was, as its president Jamal Husseini freely boasted, inspired by German Nazism. It included a 'youth troop', modelled on the Hitler Youth, for a while actually called, the 'Nazi Scouts'.
↑ "Swastikas in Jerusalem" Dalia Karpel, Haaretz, Feb. 28, 2008. Updated: Feb. 29, 2008.

In 1933, a branch of the Nazi party opened in Jerusalem's German Colony. Members greeted each other with the straight-armed salute, waved flags emblazoned with swastikas and cut off business ties with their Jewish neighbors. In a new book, architect David Kroyanker tells of anti-Semitic propaganda and plans to import weapons from Germany for use by Arabs against the Jews.
Kroyanker, an architect and researcher who worked on this project with his wife Leora, devotes a chapter of the book to the Nazi period: "In the Shadow of the Swastika: 1933-1939." In addition to previously published materials, like the writings of journalist and author Haviv Canaan, Kroyanker relies on new, compelling sources from private archives, such as Templer manuscripts and memoirs published in Australia in German, and adds rare photographs that are being publicized for the first time.
Kroyanker was intrigued by the human side of the German Colony's history. His book describes the customs and ways of life of this group of people whose arrival here from south Germany was akin to "landing on the moon." They settled on rocky farmland that was purchased from the Arab village of Beit Safafa and built a "model settlement."
"Look at the family photos and you'll see that they look like they stepped out of a late 19th-century magazine," he says. "They were photographed in Jerusalem dressed in their finest clothes in order to represent a European way of life in the heart of the baksheesh [a tip or bribe] wilderness. In some of the memoirs, you see their contemptuous attitude toward the Arabs...
Kroyanker stresses in his book that until Hitler came to power, the Templers and their Jewish neighbors enjoyed good relations. The Germans patronized the Jews' shops and went to Jewish doctors, while Jewish business owners stocked products from Germany and the cinemas screened German films. There were also partnerships between businessmen and merchants from the two communities.
Not all the Templers were swept up in the nationalist fervor after the Nazis' rise to power in Germany. There were some, primarily from the older generation, who worried about Nazi ideology taking precedence over the Templer ideology of messianic longings and the striving to create a Christian religious utopia. Kroyanker quotes an article from the Templer journal Warte, which criticizes Nazi ideology, saying "It ought not to be viewed as Christian, since it is founded on an Indo-German faith that leads to idol worship." But that didn't stop the growing support for Nazism.
Heil Hitler
The founder of the Nazi organization in Palestine in 1933 was the architect Karl Ruff, from Haifa. Nazi party branches were established in Haifa, Jaffa and Jerusalem and in several other Templer colonies. The Jerusalem branch was the largest; in April 1934, it had 67 registered members (the Haifa branch had 48). Ludwig Buchhalter, a teacher in the Templer school in the German Colony, was appointed head of the branch; he received instructions from Berlin and worked in coordination with the German consulate.
In April 1934, Buchhalter hosted a party for local residents at the party headquarters in Jerusalem to celebrate Hitler's birthday. The event began with a performance by the boys choir from the Schneller orphanage. "After that, Buchhalter, the branch leader, called for everyone to honor the 45-year-old fuehrer with a triple Sieg Heil salute. Of all the fuehrer's qualities, he emphasized the man's humility." Buchhalter also read aloud a chapter from the book "With Hitler on the Road to Power."
On May 1, 1934, the consulate hosted a festive reception and "it was decided that the members were now obliged to greet one another with a Heil Hitler greeting and straight-armed salute on the street, too, on condition that the greeting would not be interpreted as a provocation to others." Buchhalter summoned the party members to the Sport Club in Katamon, for a meeting with the chairman of the Nazi party in Stuttgart, who had come for a visit. That location was also used for lectures by professional Nazi propagandists, who promised their listeners that victory was assured and that they need only be patient.
Until 1934, a British branch of the Scouts operated in the German Colony and held varied activities, for boys and girls separately. The youths went on hikes and erected tent camps in the Wilhelma Templer colony, learned Morse code, knot-tying and first aid, and sang British songs. In 1934, the club was converted to a branch of the Nazi youth movement, the Hitler Jugend.
Haviv Canaan, who was an officer in the Mandate police at the time, described in his writings what Kroyanker calls "a typical National Socialist street scene in the second half of the 1930s": "Visible through the open windows of the mostly one-story houses was old but distinguished furniture, and the walls were adorned with pictures of leaders of the Reich. On the sides of the balconies, under the roof, swastika flags lay folded."
The architect and builder Hermann Imberger used to stroll down the Colony's main street every Sunday, with a swastika band around his arm, and the Arabs he passed "saluted him with admiration."...
Kroyanker also tells about the resistance that existed within the community to the Nazi activity: Philip Vorst, head of the Templer Association, banned the Nazi salute from the schools in 1935...
Ban versus ban
During the Arab revolt against the British, which began in April 1936 with a general strike that lasted six months, some Arabs saw the Templers as prospective allies in their struggle, and hoped that Nazi Germany would conquer Palestine from the British. Buchhalter told the German journalist Ralf Balke, whose book about the Nazi party in Palestine was published in 2001, how he would travel without any problem in his car, which had a Nazi flag attached, through areas that were under Arab control. And that once, when he forgot to remove the flag from the car, he "entered an area under Jewish control and came under fire from Jewish vehicles."
Sakakini writes that the German children were sympathetic to the Arabs and, during recess, would throw stones at the Jewish buses that passed the school. But the school principal, Wilhelm Eppinger, refused to join the Nazi party. In October 1937, when it was decided that the school was to be merged with the school of the city's German Evangelical community, Eppinger was dismissed and replaced by Philip Vorst, who by this point was going along with the Nazis. Vorst exhorted the parents, students and teachers who assembled for the school's grand opening to cooperate with one another in keeping with the lofty spirit of Adolf Hitler.. The German Ministry of Information and Propaganda encouraged Palestinian students to attend the German school in order to create a cadre of pro-German leadership that would govern an independent Palestinian state in the future, reports Kroyanker, quoting from a document in the state archives. Palestinian pupils made up about a quarter of the student population and were also able to study Arabic there.
Buchhalter, the head of the local Nazi branch, used to threaten residents of the Colony who didn't adhere to the Third Reich's anti-Semitic demands. Because of the attacks on Jews in Germany, the Jews in Palestine declared a ban on German businesses...
Beginning in 1935, the Nazi party branches in Palestine instructed the Germans not to employ Jewish workers, and also recommended dissolving any business partnerships with Jews. ...
Enemy property
Ludwig Buchhalter reported to the Nazi leadership in Berlin about the possibility of selling two German properties to Jews - ... Ernst Schneller, the founder's grandson, represented the Augusta Victoria Foundation here at that time, which worked to promote German nationalism. The Schneller printing house produced the Nazi party stationery and party members were entitled to a 10 percent discount. Because of the Schneller family's Nazi ties, the British secret police eavesdropped on their telephone conversations, and monitored their movements."
From secret police documents from 1936 to 1939, Kroyanker learned that the Schneller institution attempted to import weapons and ammunition from Germany, in order to train Arabs. In 1938, a booklet published by the Schneller institution included an article by Ludwig Schneller describing the feeling of suffocation at the German institution due to the proximity of Jews in the surrounding area, and expressing some blatantly anti-Semitic views...

Moshe Shemesh: The position of the Jaffa (based) newspaper, Falastin, towards the Axis Powers and the democracies. p. 260

It is not clear whether Falastin received assistance from Nazi Germany or Fascist Italy during the period under review. According to the newspaper's positive attitude towards these two countries, it is likely that it did indeed benefit from both or one of them.
The Arabs got hooked at Nazi racism and Aryan supremacy and especially by the principle of language as a unifying nationalist factor, such as the Arabic language that unites the Arab world.
This admiration of the Arab world was expressed, among other things, in political bodies that tried to emulate Nazi or fascist organizations, such as Al-Futuwwah and Al-Najjada in Palestine, the Mistr Al-Fatah in Egypt, or the Syrian National Party. The Palestinian nationalists, including the Husseinis, showed great sympathy for the Nazis. The Husseinis saw the Nazis as natural allies in their struggle against the Jews. This is also evidenced by the Mufti's personal connections..
The position of the Falastin newspaper towards the two camps - the dictatorships and the democracies - in the period reviewed until the outbreak of the war, will be examined in two areas: The formal position of the paper, as expressed in the main articles; The position of the newspaper as expressed in the manner in which the information was provided current events in Europe.

p. 261

The formal position in the main articles ...
In general, it can be noted that during the years 1939-1938, there was a constant drift in the position of the newspaper and in the position of the Arab world in general towards democracies. This process stemmed from the aggravation of the global crisis and the prominence of Nazi Germany as the most powerful power, as well as the intensification of the struggle in the country.
The first half of 1938: During this period the paper tried to be "balanced" between the two camps, but in fact tended more towards the Axis countries. In general, the newspaper raised allegations against the democratic nature of Western regimes and implicitly implied some sympathy for the dictatorial regimes. "There is not a single person who understands the spirit of the time who would agree that Italian fascism or German Hitlerism would take over Europe or the whole world, after the real English democracy had disappeared. But what man is not inclined to sympathize with this fascism or this Hitlerism, if there is in this sympathy to help the hundreds of millions remove from their hearts the bitterness for the sake of saving the world from a war that could lead to the end of human culture?" Following this line and the hidden sympathy for Germany ...

p. 266

At the same time, in order not to completely burn the bridges with the English, the editor tried to 'balance' these sharp articles in major articles that also criticized the dictatorial countries, though not on issues directly related to the Arabs but on issues related to Europe and tensions in the international arena. Due to the nature of this review. Its influence on Palestinian public opinion was minimal. The Palestinians were only slightly interested in what was happening in Europe, and most of their attention was focused on what was happening in Palestine and the struggle against the Jewish community and against Britain. This 'balance' did not, therefore, harm the positive image of the Axis powers, which prevailed in Arab public opinion at the time. Moreover, in the publication of the current information on what is happening in Europe, as will be seen later, the clear and sharp tendency to side with Germany stood...

p. 267

Censorship and the penalties imposed on the newspaper required its editors to use an elusive technique in publishing the news, which on the one hand would not give a reason to the mandate or censorship authorities to punish it and on the other hand would allow the newspaper to express its views against Britain and the West. This method of publication makes it difficult for the researcher and requires him to decipher it in order to recreate the true position of the newspaper. Understanding the method of publication will undoubtedly help to understand the trends of the newspaper in the period under review. It is possible to summarize in this way the measures taken by Palestine to overcome the obstacles of censorship and the position of the Mandatory authorities when it comes to expressing its positions by providing the information:
A. The dominant method that stands out in reading the newspaper is a quote from a foreign press including the British, French, German and Italian press. In most cases the paper used to quote a British press. He frequently quoted from it news items, commentaries, and articles that included criticism of the administration and its policies and especially articles of sympathy for the Axis powers and articles that demonstrated tendencies toward conciliation toward them. In this context, the newspaper published commentaries and articles from the German or Italian press which criticized the West or tended to the position of the Arabs.
B. Falastin contented itself with mentioning the cities of London, Rome, Paris or Berlin as the source of its information and refrained from mentioning the news agency that sent them. In sensitive news, the city of London has often been mentioned as a clear source that such a score was intended to train the news in the eyes of the censor, especially when the news is based on a quote from a British newspaper.
C. An interesting phenomenon that I encountered a lot in the newspaper: a certain article, which London is excellent as a source, starts with giving details related to the headline, but then the newspaper moves to other news under subheadings unrelated to the headline and still continues to be based on the same source. This gives the impression that London is the source of further knowledge.

p. 270

"An important speech that Hitler is about to deliver with very important statements on German foreign policy.'" - He did not do so with Chamberlain's speeches. It should be emphasized that it is not the news itself that is important here, but the proportions in delivering and emphasizing the news from Germany compared to similar news from the evening that were very few.

p. 271

About Hitler comparing him to Napoleon. Similarly to his treatment of Mussolini in early 1938, Falastin (March, April and May 1939) published extensively information about Hitler's actions and his character and influence. These reports were the mainstay of the foreign news page of the paper and may even be said to be more central than the reports on Mussolini in early 1938. Although the descriptions were factual, the headlines given to them were positive in tone or so-called neutral and attention-grabbing.
In presenting Germany's positive stance on the Arab issue, the Islamic-religious element was also overemphasized, in order to highlight Hitler's sympathy for Islam and the Muslim world. Hitler is also interested in following Mussolini and getting the title of Muslim defender.
Characteristically, Hitler's reference to the Palestinian problem was emphasized in his April 1, 1939, speech. The role of Palestine and the Arabs in the Fuhrer speech; We will not interfere in the affairs of others and we do not want them to interfere in our affairs: we have never asked the British about the affairs of Palestine and what is happening in it and what they want.
The shift towards a pro-German orientation was expressed in a broader report on Germany and in the emphasis on Germany's aggressive, rigid and 'bold' position in Europe ...

In 1937, Walter Doehle, German consul in Jerusalem, wrote:
“Palestinian Arabs in all social strata have great sympathies for the new Germany and its Führer … If a person identified himself as a German when faced with threats from an Arab crowd, this alone generally allowed him to pass freely. But when some identified themselves by making the ‘Heil Hitler’ salute, in most cases the Arabs’ attitude became expressions of open enthusiasm, and the German gave ovations, to which the Arabs responded loudly.” [...] The Mufti was personally responsible for the deaths of 20,000 European Jews murdered in the Nazi Holocaust. He organized the killing of 12,600 Bosnian Jews by Muslims, whom he recruited to the Waffen-SS Nazi-Bosnian division. He personally stopped 4,000 children, accompanied by 500 adults, from leaving Europe and had them sent to Auschwitz and gassed; he prevented another 2,000 Jews from leaving Romania and 1000 from leaving Hungary for Palestine – they too were sent to death camps...
The ghost of Nazi-inspired, anti-Jewish bigotry was never exorcised from the Arab world. In fact Arabs became its torch-bearers. On Jan. 14, Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas, whose university thesis was an exercise in Holocaust denial, shocked all right-thinking individuals with a speech dripping with anti-Semitism, and blaming the Jews for their own deaths in the Holocaust.

In April 1934, the Husseinis' "Al Jamia Al Arabia" (on the occasion of the opening of the Bari broadcast) wrote that Italy was the only power that had only economic and cultural trends and sought to move closer to the East.
In the same newspaper (35.4.4) Shakib Arslan wrote that Mussolini is a huge personality. The leader of European policy and that the Arabs should not be moved by the Abyssinian government that persecutes Muslims. During the Abyssinian War, the Husseinist newspapers in Italy and the opposition newspapers supported the Abyssinians.
(In 1937, "Falastin" also became pro-Italian).
Along the Italian side, Nazi Germany also began to raise its profile among the Arabs and succeeded in doing so, especially during the days of the events.
May 22, 1937, a holiday. Large Nazi flags fluttered in Jaffa. The front of the workers' association's house was adorned with swastikas. In many houses swastikas and pictures of the Fuhrer, the Duce and the leaders of the revolt were seen. In 1938, one hundred Palestine Arabs visited the Nazi party conference in Nuremberg. Needless to say, how great was the effect of the German victories, in the first period of the war, on the Arabs of the country, and how difficult was then the impression of their defeat: an Egyptian, who visited the country in the days after the conquest of Berlin wrote: "The people cry in the morning and sob in the evening.

Islamic antisemitism did not develop spontaneously but was invented and used as a means to an end. This process began about 80 years ago in the context of Arab attempts to stop the Zionist immigration to Palestine which considerably increased in the 1930s.
The first text that propagated sheer Jew-hatred in an Islamic context by mixing selected anti-Jewish episodes of Mohammed’s life with the so-called wickedness [sic] of Jews in the 20th century was a 31-page brochure in the Arabic language with the title Islam and Jewry, published on August 18, 1937 in Cairo.
In September 1937, this pamphlet achieved significance through its distribution at the “National Arab Congress” in Bludan, a health resort in Syria, 30 miles (50 kilometres) northwest of Damascus...
While historians have still to answer important questions about Islam and Jewry and Bludan, the political context which facilitated the emergence of Islamic antisemitism is quite clear....
The brochure itself culminates in the following call: “Do not tolerate the partition plan, for Palestine has been an Arab country for centuries and shall remain Arabic forever.”
↑ ^47.0 ^47.1 A credible story..., M. Uziel, Maariv, May 1, 2016.

... Canaan was not just a journalist. "A trusted professional and impartial historian in his pioneering research, he was personally a great authority on Nazi-Palestinian activity in Palestine, as he was in charge of the issue as a senior officer in the British police and was involved in the entire investigation."...
Bureau 06, the police unit that prepared the evidence file for the Eichmann trial, found a very strong connection between the Mufti and Eichmann. "
It is very easy to find evidence of Eichmann and the Mufti's connections. Bureau 06 found, for example, a record of the Mufti in his personal diary on a page dated November 9, 1944, "And the good (or the faithful) in the Arab friends Eichmann." This is not only a random proof of the connection between the Mufti and Eichmann, but of the Mufti's involvement in the final solution, and of the Mufti's scale of values, according to which the extermination of the Jewish people is an act of friendship for the Arab cause. Herf attaches importance to the fact that al-Husseini was a Nazi-style extremist anti-Jew even before he arrived in Berlin. In his article, he quotes a speech delivered by the Mufti in 1937, before the outbreak of World War II and the Holocaust. The speech was delivered in Syria and when I read it I was amazed to find that it had been translated into German by the Nazi leadership at the time, published in a Nazi - controlled press and that all Nazi leaders knew it as early as 1938.
At the same conference in Syria, Husseini was elected by the 400 deputies as the honorary president of the pan-Arab organization. After World War II, Haj Amin was accepted as a hero in Egypt and Palestine. In 1946, Hassan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, called Husseini "a hero who challenged the empire and Zionism with the help of Hitler and Germany. Germany and Hitler are no more, but Amin al-Husseini will continue the struggle."
A similar attitude of admiration was shown by the Arab Supreme Council and the Palestinian People's Party, which elected him their leader in 1945. In 1948, Amin al-Husseini was the commander of the Palestinian forces during the War of Independence, whose goal was to occupy and destroy the Jewish community.
Prof. Meir Litvak, who co-authored the book "Empathy for Denial, Arab Reactions to the Holocaust," explains that al-Husseini's status among Palestinians is not excited today. "Mainly because they see him as primarily responsible for their defeat in the War of Independence," explains Prof. Litvak. "Some see him as responsible for the failure of Palestinian society to build political infrastructure and institutions as the Zionist movement did. Most writers on his activities in Germany try to downplay his actions, trying to justify his move to Germany by the British leaving him no choice, which is not true. "The Arab, and no one wants to be identified with her, despite the attempt to downplay the significance of the Holocaust. The Palestinian encyclopedia, for example, skips the years during which the Mufti stayed in Germany with the value written about him."
To a large extent, the PLO developed the lie of Zionist-Nazi cooperation in the extermination of the Jews, in order to counter the Mufti's real cooperation with the Nazis, Prof. Litvak claims. "Hamas and Islamic circles in Palestinian society, on the other hand, take a different approach," it praises the Mufti for his uncompromising stance in his struggle against Zionism, praising him for understanding the centrality of religion in the struggle against Zionism and the need to harness Islam for the war against the Jews. They have no problem with being in Nazi Germany. According to them, he did what was necessary to help the Palestinian cause. For them, the British and Americans were no better than the Germans. It would have been convenient for the Palestinians if the Germans had won the war...

Although it is quite clear that these foundations intensified in the Middle East for many years before the establishment of the State of Israel. The status of the Jewish minorities in the Arab world, as well as the status of Christians and non-Arab groups, became increasingly intolerable (and unrelated to Zionism) in the face of pan-Arabism, unique nationalism, overt anti-Semitism, and the resurgence of Muslim fanaticism.
All these trends, which have omitted the ground beneath the feet of the old Jewish communities in Arab countries, drew their power out of a common disgrace to the West and its emancipatory heritage. For it was not Islam but the hated colonialists who granted equal rights to the Jewish and Christian minorities in the Middle East. Against this background it is easy to understand why there was Nazism (and especially its anti-Jewish elements) to arouse such enthusiasm and admiration among the Arabs in the 1930s and 1940s. The words written by Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Mufti of Jerusalem and the leader of the Arabs of Israel, to Adolf Hitler on January 20, 1941, did not in any way contradict the general tone of the Arab nationalism of the period. "Arab nationalism owes Your Excellency a debt of gratitude and of recognition for having repeatedly [again and again] brought up in ringing speeches the 'question of Palestine.'"
In fact, the "question of Palestine" was intended only a marginal place in Hitler's policy and German policy until the outbreak of the war, although the Mufti did not err in seeing Hitler and German leaders as 'anti-Zionists', as opposed to the Stalinist, Trotskyist and leftist fabrications.

אף-על-פי שהאנטישמיות הסוביטית לא הגיעה מעולם לאותה רמה של אידיאולוגיה טוטלית או אותה דינמיקה אסקטולוגית שאיפיינה את האידיאולוגיה של היטלר, אי אפשר להגזים בחומרת התוצאות שיש למורשה רוסית ...
אבל לעומת זאת אנו מוצאים בעולם הנוצרי של ימינו הוקרה ליהודים, התפעלות ורצון לכפר על הרדיפות של העבר - דבר הנעדר מן האיסלם כמעט לגמרי, אף שזה האחרון רשם לחובתו רשימה ארוכה של פוגרומים ביהודים ושל אפליה חוקית ממוסדת. מדרך הטבע בא המאבק על ארץ- ישראל והחדיר מידה גדושה של ארס ועוצמה בכול אותם יסודות של האיסלם שהיו עויינים ליהודים וליהדות. אם כי ברור לחלוטין שיסודות אלה הלכו והתעצמו במזרח התיכון כבר שנים רבות בטרם קמה מדינת ישראל. מעמדם של המיעוטים היהודיים בעולם הערבי - כמוהו כמעמדם של הנוצרים ושל קבוצות לא־ערביות נעשה לא נסבל יותר ויותר (ובלי שום קשר לציונות) נוכח הפאן-ערביות, הלאומנות הייחודית, האנטישמיות הגלויה ותחייתה של הפנטיות המוסלמית.
כול המגמות הללו, שהשמיטו את הקרקע מתחת לרגליהן של הקהילות היהודיות הוותיקות בארצות ערב, משכו את כוחן מתוך משטמה משותפת למערב ולמורשתו האמנציפטורית. שכן, לא האיסלם אלא הקולוניאליסטים השנואים הם שהעניקו שווי זכויות למיעוטים היהודיים והנוצריים במזרח התיכון. על רקע זה נקל להבין מדוע היה בנאציזם (ובמיוחד במרכיביו האנטי-יהודיים) כדי לעורר התפעלות והערצה כה נלהבת בקרב הערבים בשנות השלושים והארבעים. הדברים שכתב חאג' אמין אל חוסייני, המופתי של ירושלים ומנהיג ערביי ארץ-ישראל, לאדולף היטלר ב־20 בינואר 1941, לא עמדו בשום פנים בסתירה לטוֹן הכללי של הלאומנות הערבית של התקופה. "הנאציונליזם הערבי חייב להוד מעלתך חוב של הכרת טובה ושל הוקרה על שהעלית שוב ושוב בקול מהדהד את שאלת פלסטין'."
למען האמת, ל'שאלת פלסטין' נועד רק מקום שולי במדיניותו של היטלר ובמדיניות הגרמנית עד פרוץ המלחמה, אף־על־פי שהמופתי לא שגה כשראה את היטלר ואת המנהיגים הגרמנים כ'אנטי־ציונים', בניגוד לפבריקציות הסטאליניסטיות, הטרוצקיסטיות והשמאלניות של ימינו.

The Nazi influence in Arab reaction to Israel.

The virulent hatred that resonates today throughout the modern world, that ever-agonizing disgust felt for the Jewish people, is not an old-time Arab feeling toward the Jews. This hatred is a result of the Nazi influence, which never died. Although the Allies destroyed the Third Reich, what has lived on is the Nazi spirit. This spirit of hatred festered through the relationship between Amin Al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, and Hitler.
The Mufti's radio broadcasts were some of the most violent pro-Axis broadcasts ever produced. He had at least six stations - Berlin, Zeissen, Bari, Rome, Tokyo and Athens. He used these radio broadcasts to tell Muslims across the world to commit acts of sabotage and kill the Jews.

In 1944, laden with heavy equipment and barrels of deadly poison, Germans and Arabs in the vicinity of Jerusalem secretly landed for a joint operation against the Jewish community. He visited Auschwitz, recruited thousands of Muslims to serve the Reich, and even pushed for the establishment of an extermination camp in Israel.

Operation Atlas.
Following the defeat of the Nazis in the third battle of El Alamein (November 1942), the idea of 'Operation Atlas' took shape. The planning of the operation included the secret parachuting of a group of fighters consisting of Muslims, members of the Nazi pioneering training program, and Germans from the Templar colonies in Israel, who would be equipped with ten large containers of deadly poison. According to Prof. Yossi Ben-Artzi, the cell was supposed to rekindle the Arab uprising and create a new front in the Nazi campaign, and according to Prof. Yoav Gelber, the cell was intended for an intelligence purpose of recruiting and training aides. According to the accepted version, the members of the cell sought to poison the springs of Rosh HaAyin and bring about the death of a quarter of a million Jews in the Land of Israel.

Is the occupation? Are the settlements? Is the Nakba from 48? And perhaps especially the very Jewish presence in the country? News1, October 21, 2015.

The renowned scholar, Prof. Edward Said, wrote: "In the Mufti's call for the extermination of the Jewish people, he represented the consensus of the Palestinian Arabs and served as the mouthpiece of the people. The Mufti's political successor was PLO leader Yasser Arafat" ...
In Palestinian schools, children are taught to hate Jews not because of the lack of a "political horizon." In mosques, clergy preach to hate and murder Jews not because of the lack of a "political process." Palestinian television and radio are inciting the murder of Jews not because of a "political stalemate."
The calls for the murder and extermination of the Jews are a permanent matter in the propaganda of jihad. The Palestinian leadership of both Hamas and the PA are partners in spreading hatred against Jews. All those young people who go out to stab with occasional Jewish knives do so because of the fanatical hatred and not because of the checkpoints. Palestinian boys who try to murder Jews their age do so out of hatred of Jews and not because there is a lack of budgets for schools in the West Bank.
Hatred, knife and murder of Jews is the hallmark of Palestinian and Muslim "culture." Palestinian hatred of Jews has its roots in the Muslim religion and Nazi ideology.

Outside the Young Men's Christian Association building in Jerusalem, where the hearings of the Anglo-American Inquiry Committee were being held at the time, I met Jamal el Husseini; he issued the same warning as Shukeiri (he being Shukeiri's chief) of playing along with Moscow, and reiterated his justification of the mass murder of six million Jews "for Hitler couldn't be all wrong... you have got to see both sides of a question, my man, both sides of a question..."

A recent recommendation Ahmad Shukairy
Saudi Arabia United Nations delegate, that the United Nations endorse and spread the propaganda the anti-Semitic Tacuara neo-Nazi youth movement in Argentina is "shocking and reprehensible," Labor Zionist Executive Officers declared in a pointed statement last week. "To attempt to enlist United Nations in Anti-Semitic activity is not only an insult to intelligence of the U.N. delegates but a brazen desecration of the Declaration of Human Rights."
Pointing to the fact that Shukairy's outburst was promptly rebuked by the Argentinian Lucio Garcia del Sol, who disavowed and that similar denouncements came from the Chilean and other Latin-American sources, the Labor Zionist leaders stated that "The time has come for leaders of all faiths and political parties as well as men of good will to United in condemning the attempt by Arab spokesmen to revive Hitlerism's abominable use of anti-Semitism as a political tool.
"Such irresponsible mendacious talk is an affront to the memory of millions of Jewish and non-Jewish victims of Hitler's madness. It besmirches the struggle which the Free World made to eradicate the evils of Hitlerism.
"It is time for devotees of peace to say plainly to Arab leaders: 'You deceive no one by seeking to equate Israel and Zionism with Nazism or Fascism, for it is common knowledge that the Grand Mufti and other Arab leaders openly supported the Nazi and Fascist cause during World War II.' And even today Egypt employs well-known former leaders of Hitler's government such as Johannes Von Leers as advisors on its anti-Semitic activities. The Nazis in Cairo are aided by former Gestapo officers including the notorious Maj. Leopold Gleim and Maj. Bernard Bender who hold high posts in the secret police of the United Arab Republic."
Once again the Arab leadership stands exposed before the world as the inheritors of Hitler's racist mantle. In their insane desire to destroy the Jewish State, they are his anti-Semitic theories which almost destroyed the human race. What rational person can possible defend such actions?
To their friends in the West, we ask: is this the way to achieve "Peace on Earth Goodwill towards Men?"

The Memorandum identified the grand mufti as a "full partner" of Hitler's "before and during World War II" and as "an escaped prisoner who has found asylum in the Palace of the King of Egypt."
In addition to the grand mufti, the accused men included the delegation's head, Emil Ghouri; Wasef Kamal, and Rasem Khalidi, a former radio announcer on an Axis-Arab station. The latter two "were notorious for their long-term association with the Mufti and his Axis activities." The U.S. consul in Egypt had refused to grant Khalidi a visa to the United States because of his wartime collaboration with the Nazis in Germany.
↑ Col (Res.) Dr. Raphael G. Bouchnik-chen, "Palestinian Arab Volunteers in the British Army in WWII: A Reality Check", Besa, December 9, 2019.

Notwithstanding Abbasi’s claim to have based his research on a variety of primary and secondary sources, he seems to have chosen his sources selectively, presumably to service the theory of a significant degree of Palestinian Arab resistance to the Nazis. Neither the quantitative nor the qualitative aspect of this theory is supported by the evidence.
Gen. Archibald Wavell, commander of the British forces in the Middle East, opposed the formation of a Jewish regiment in the British army. According to historian Marcel Roubicek, the British High Commissioner for Palestine also feared that Jewish enlistment would inflame Arab anger. To solve that problem, he made it a condition that Jews wishing to join up find an equivalent number of Palestinian Arab volunteers to join up as well.
To accomplish this, the Jews of the Yishuv offered financial compensation to Palestinian Arabs to enlist. They ultimately succeeded in raising enough manpower from both communities to permit the formation of a Jewish regiment.
The opportunity for Palestinian Arabs to join the ranks of the British Army was thus a direct outcome of the Jewish desire to render its utmost assistance to Britain in every sphere of war activity, a point Abbasi ignores.
He is similarly fuzzy on Palestinian Arab motivation. He states, “Most of the [Palestinian Arab] volunteers were villagers and of the urban lower class, and…the economic motive played a central role in volunteering,” noting that these “motives…differed from [that of] their Jewish friends, who enlisted in the army mainly because of opposition to Nazi Germany and its racial policy toward their people, besides other motives such as the revival of a Jewish army, and the serious employment situation in the country at the beginning of the war.”
Compensation as the prevailing motivation for Palestinian Arab enlistment is supported by the evidence, but Abbasi claims their motives were in fact manifold and varied. Some Palestinian Arabs, he states, enlisted for ideological reasons, to express their opposition to Nazi ideology and loyalty to the British and their values. This motive was especially true of the urban elite and the intellectuals, he alleges, who were highly influenced by British education and culture. He does not substantiate this point sufficiently and ignores available evidence documenting contemporary Palestinian contempt for the British Army (see, for example, Prof. Kimberly Katz’s A Young Palestinian’s Diary 1941-1945, The Life of Sami Amr).
Abbasi laments that “there is hardly any reference to the thousands of Palestinian volunteers, some of whom fell in battle, while others are still listed as missing in action, and no commemoration of the fallen can be found anywhere.” He suggests this “evil” is explained by “what the Palestinian people experienced during the Nakba and its aftermath, the destruction of archives and records in addition to the loss of personal documents, and the fact that no organization was established to commemorate the volunteers and their deeds.” He thus accuses Israel of covering up the Palestinian Arab role in defeating the Nazis.
It should be noted that Abbasi persistently uses the term “Palestinians” rather than “Palestinian Arabs” in his article, starting with the title. This manipulation services the popular narrative denying any linkage between the Jewish People and Palestine. In her book World War II – The Story of a Jewish Soldier, Jewish Women of Mandatory Palestine Serving in the British Army, Esther Herlitz (later an Israeli diplomat and politician who served as a member of the Knesset) wrote, “As far as the British were concerned, we from the Jewish Yishuv, and some Arabs, were Palestinians.”

A total of 9,000 Arabs enlisted in the British Army here. Among them are many from across the Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, who came to the recruitment bureaus in Palestine. Many of them enlisted with the intention of acquiring weapons for themselves: indeed, by the end of the war only about half of the Arab soldiers remained, as the rest defected with their weapons from the army. Arab leaders who moved to Germany, led by Haj Amin al-Husseini, a former Mufti of Jerusalem, incited on German radio the Arabs to defect from the British army.
Amin al-Husseini actively assisted in the establishment of Arab and Muslim battalions in the German army. It was only after the Allied victory over Al-Alamein that it became clear to the Arab statesmen that their orientation on the Axis victory in the war had disappointed, and then they changed their position and declared their full support for the Allies.

Following this turning point, many Arab prisoners were released, who were imprisoned by the British, including organizers of riots in Palestine, and given permission to return to their homeland. Here they once again stood at the head of the Arab parties, even though they signed a letter of commitment not to be active in life ...

Our sympathies were with the Axis powers being led by Hitler from victory to victory, and with our sympathies went our prayers for the victory of Germany and her allies, and defeat for Britain and her confederates. . . . When the British government announced the formation of a Palestine force to help the war effort, our young men received the durective: do not join the Palestine force, and the response was quasi-unanimous. . . . The activities of the Italian and Gernan airforce extended to Palestine, and in September 1940 their airplanes bombed certain targets in Tel-Aviv and Haifa. The joy and excitement produced in our circles was indescribable.

...But Falastin also reflected the overall view of fascism as a national and organizational prescription, for example the writer the physician and communist (and who was close to the 'Husseini' camp) Khalil al-Budeiri in Falastin, January 5, 1936:
It is very easy to explain our youth's sympathy for the fascist idea. All the news passed on to us about this movement illustrates it as a new human revival that promises hope and prosperity. We, too, who are at the beginning of our national revival, should strive to achieve similar goals and communicate with the movements that aspire to them, this and more, adolescence tends to admire power and heroism ...
No comprehensive research has yet been conducted on the mood of the Palestinians, but the journalism of the time (the same study by the historian Dr. Mustafa Kabha) shows a great deal of admiration for the power and solidity of Nazi Germany's achievements. May 14, 1933 The first months of the reign of the German dictator and exclaimed: "Will an Arab Hitler appear among us to awaken, unite and lead us to lead us to fight and defend our rights?"
Al-Difa's newspaper had long published translated excerpts from Hitler's Mein Kampf's book. He kept a regular correspondent in Berlin who persisted in sending sympathetic articles about the achievements of the Nazi regime. The paper's editor, Ibrahim al-Shanti, called on Arab youth (in an article from June 1, 1934) to "learn from Hitler's actions and imitate them in order to achieve similar national achievements." The Jaffa-based Falastin, which criticized Mussolini, supported Hitler, as did almost all the other newspapers...
The first page of the Jaffa-based Falastin issue dated April 29, 1939. The headline announces "Hitler's historic speech," in which he rejects the Roosevelt letter, the cancellation of the naval agreement with Britain and the cancellation of the nonaggression pact on Poland. In the center of the page, around the image of the brazened face of the Nazi ruler.. the body of the report, the subtitle summarizes other parts of Hitler's speech...
This speech of Hitler was accepted by many in the world as an act of a madman who consciously degenerates humanity into the abyss. In this way, for example, even the leader of the "Young Egypt", Ahmed Hussein, responded to these words, but the Jaffa-based 'Falastin' does not hide its sympathy. The title he chose is a quote from the Fuhrer "I have built in peaceful [ways] what others have destroyed by force."

On 2 July 1942, the second day of the first battle of El Alamein, the Mufti's supporters organized a public meeting in Nablus, in order to congratulate each other on the approaching victory and to wish the Mufti a long life. Cohen reported that the Mufti's supporters in Haifa had visited the local villages of Kabatia and Yabed, where they had met with his followers in order to plan the pillaging of Jewish villages in the Jezre'el valley, after the British retreat... On the same day in July, Cohen reported that the Arabs had received news about the fate of the Jews in Europe with “open joy”. They expressed the hope that the Germans would conquer Palestine and “liberate” them from their Jews. Some of the moderate minority refused to believe the news, arguing that it was merely Jewish propaganda designed to capture the sympathy of the world, that it was inconceivable that a country of Germany's cultural level could commit atrocities such as those being reported.

the Nazi, Fascist, and Vichy persecution of Jews offered an opportunity to participate in the Europeans' .... Wherever torture occurred, Arabs played a role. Arab guards, for example, routinely flogged prisoners at “punishment camps” in the Sahara. An Algerian account of brutality at Colomb-Béchar, one of the largest Vichy labor camps, tells the story of one internee who jumped through a barracks window and escaped into the desert, only to be tracked down “by Arab soldiers on horseback who dragged him back to camp tied to their horses." The captured man was then sent to a particular hellish spot called Hadjerat M'Guil where he was tortured and died eight days later. At Djenien BouRezg, another infamous Vichy concentration camp, the sadistic commandant, Lieutenant Pierre de Ricko, had at his side a team of subordinates that included a pro-fascist Alsatian, a German who moonlighted as head ofa local gang of anti-Semitic hooligans, and an Arab policeman named Ali Guesni. At Djelfa, in the Algerian desert, the commanding officer was an- other sadist, J. Caboche, who liked to strip all the clothes off prisoners and then horsewhip them. Caboche forbade his prisoners to light any fires to keep warm. On especially cold desert nights, Caboche's loyal Arab adjutant—a man known to posterity only as Ahmed—reportedly took particular pleasure in making sure his charges froze.

As Arab Nationalism and Hitlerism fused, numerous Nazi-style youth clubs began springing up in Iraq. One pivotal group known as Futuwwa was nothing less than a clone of the Hitler Youth. In 1938, Futuwwa members were required to attend a candlelight Nazi Party rally in Nuremberg. When the delegation came back from Germany, a common chant in Arabic was, “Long live Hitler, the killer of insects and J...”

In addition, the example of the Einsatzgruppen in Eastern Europe shows that the mass murders initiated by the Germans were often quickly supported by local collaborators and then smoothly implemented...
Einsatzgruppen B and C, in their vast deployment territories, also routinely made use of local personnel, who proved indispensable in carrying out the mass murders. Collaboration in the annihilation of the Jews would have proceeded smoothly outside German-occupied Europe as well. As numerous reports had long attested, a vast number of Arabs, in some cases already well organized, were ready to serve as willing accomplices of the Germans in the Middle East. Immediately after the panzer army's arrival in Africa, the central task of Rauff's Einsatzkommando—the implementation of the Holocaust in Palestine—would have been quickly put into action with the help of those collaborators.

He sold himself for arms and financial support to Moscow, to Rome. He was fascist in nature and feudal in his social composition. He never cared about the broad strata of the people not being represented in the leadership and became the franchise of the rich and aggressive.
Arab nationalism in Palestine was for the Arabs what Hitler was for the German people. While Nazism destroyed the socialists, liberals, communists, democrats, who had an independent opinion within his Reich, Haj Amin al-Husseini waged a brutal campaign of extermination against any opposition among his people.
Since he was unable to set up ... where his opponents would be tortured, he simply ordered their elimination. During the three years of the uprising under his leadership, between 7,000 and 8,000 Palestinian Arabs were killed by his mercenaries: party leaders, clerics, police and officers, teachers, journalists, mayors and city councilors, intelligence chiefs, and muhtar of villages. Many were exterminated along with their families. Arab nationalism "borrowed" from the dictatorial regimes the most horrific method of taking over the psyche of the people: terrorism.

Neither Palestinian or Arab people themselves nor the Hamas Charter (in which more than a few of such people believe) are taken seriously in such an approach. They are damned to play the role of the oppressed for whom intellectuals such as Gilbert Achcar tirelessly seek excuses. Maajid Nawaz calls this approach "patronizing, self-pity and mollycoddling."
To infantilize the Arabs by strictly separating the West and the East when it comes to antisemitism and Holocaust denial is of course a kind of racism in itself—albeit an apparently benevolent type of racism in the eyes of its upholders. But some might call it a "racism of low expectations," as if a Muslim person is "supposed" to uphold appalling views, while others might call it "paternalistic racism."
Another reason to neglect or downplay Arab antisemitism is the widespread bias against Israel. Achcar is a convinced anti-Zionist who has called the two-state solution, as recommended by the United Nations General Assembly in 1947, "a dishonorable surrender." He plays down the antisemitism of Hamas in order t delegitimize Israel and its defensive efforts. However, even in circumstances where prejudice against Israel is less evidently a factor, Arab Jew-hatred is still often ignored.

The Arabs and the Holocaust: The Arab-Israeli War of Narratives By Gilbert Achcar Metropolitan Books, 386 pp.

... But the book also suffers from some significant shortcomings. Its treatment of Arab anti-Semitism is incomplete, and the book is weighed down by a strong bias in favor of secular movements and a ferocious anti-Zionism that distracts from the main topic. More important, in his effort to counter the view that all Arabs are anti-Semites, Achcar goes too far in the other direction. He seems stubbornly insistent on contextualizing anti-Semitism out of existence, by a method that brings to mind the famous old dictionary definition of it as “hating Jews too much.”...
Achcar does not give a clear picture of any popular support these anti-fascist groups enjoyed. For Palestine, he cites a Zionist intelligence report from December 1941, which estimated pro-Nazi sympathies among Palestinian Arabs at 60 percent, but claims the number is exaggerated. He does not mention the poll carried out by Sari al-Sakakini, which, in February 1941, put the figure at 88 percent. Achcar also neglects to mention the prominent Palestinian educator and liberal, Khalil al-Sakakini, Sari’s father, who, in his diary, expressed repeated support for the Nazis.
IF, IN Achcar’s view, political self-interest makes up one of the missing pieces of contextualization of Arab pro-Nazi leanings, then the other is ignorance. Achcar repeatedly invokes pervasive “ideological poverty and confusion” and “sharply diverging levels of political education” in the Arab world. He laments “the alarmingly high proportion of ignorance and mindlessness among those who make public statements in the Arab world—a world governed, to its detriment, by regimes that generate just such ignorance and mindlessness.”
This repeated use of ignorance as an explanatory—and exculpatory—factor is the book’s greatest flaw. Whenever Achcar encounters anti-Semitism alongside contradictory words or deeds, the former is automatically discounted. The presence of such contradictions, he assumes, proves that it is a matter of ignorance, and not of real anti-Semitism.
In a telling section, Achcar recounts an incident that took place in 1936 during the Arab Revolt in Palestine. During a street demonstration in Tulkarm, a passing car was stopped, and one of its passengers, wearing a western-style hat, was assaulted. The man got out of the situation unscathed, however, by making the Nazi salute and shouting “Heil Hitler!” Having hoisted a Nazi flag over his car, the man drove off while the crowd cheered. Achcar does not deny that it was the man’s Nazi credentials that saved him. Nor would he deny, presumably, that had the man been Jewish, he would have been killed on the spot (as happened on numerous other occasions). Nevertheless, this does not qualify as anti-Semitism, according to Achcar. “The Arab population of Palestine would doubtless have detested Hitler had it known the real content of his doctrine,” he writes. The people acted out of simple “stupidity.”
But Achcar’s argument fails to account for how anti-Semitism operates. By definition, anti-Semitism is ignorant. It is the mistaken view that Jews qua Jews possess certain characteristics. To reserve the label of anti-Semitism, a manifestly irrational idea, for those who profess it with intellectual consistency amounts to a circular reasoning by which hardly anyone qualifies.
As Achcar’s own book makes evident, a fully fledged anti-Semitic ideology is by no means a prerequisite for violence directed specifically against Jews. One might also consult historian Christopher Browning’s book Ordinary Men about a German Ordnungspolizei Reserve Unit during the Second World War. Consisting mostly of middle-aged men of working-class background, the unit’s wartime charge was to round up Jews for transport to concentration camps in Poland. The Jews who did not fit onto the trains were to be shot. Despite having been given the option of transferring to other, less gruesome duties, most of the policemen performed their task diligently and without complaint. Browning’s point is that the Holocaust did not require personnel steeped in “eliminationist anti-Semitism,” but rather was made possible by the ready willingness of “ordinary men” without strong ideological proclivities one way or the other to commit atrocities. “If the men of Reserve Police Battalion 101 could become killers under such circumstances, what group of men cannot?” Browning concluded. Evil, it seems, remains as banal as when Hannah Arendt reported on it from Jerusalem in 1962.
Achcar’s tendency to explain anti-Semitic incidents as the result of ignorance is present throughout the book, as are the problems that arise as a result. His discussion of the Farhud, the 1941 Baghdad pogrom, in which some 180 Jews were murdered, provides another example. Based on the highly questionable assumption that it is possible to extrapolate from that isolated incident, the Farhud has often been invoked as proof of a general pattern of anti-Semitic thought across the region. Achcar is right to reject this view, but here as elsewhere, his eagerness to counter the dominant narrative’s essentializing and reductionist tendencies causes him to present an equally reductionist mirror image.
Achcar takes the prominent Middle East historian Bernard Lewis to task for inflating the numbers killed and for calling the Farhud “the first Axis-style attack on a Jewish community in an Arab land.” According to Achcar, this ignores the fact that a majority of Iraqis were opposed to the violence (a claim for which he offers no proof); that most of those who did participate were not motivated by anti-Semitism, but by the prospect of easy gain; and that many “unhesitatingly went to the Jews’ defense or provided them with aid, protection, and shelter.” Furthermore, he points out, the mob was violently suppressed (after two days) by the Iraqi Army, and many of the afflicted Jewish families subsequently received compensation from the Iraqi government.
This is all well and good. But how does Achcar imagine this to be different from any of the European pogroms, whose anti-Semitic character is undisputed? Does he believe that they, in contrast to the Farhud, were all motivated by that curious brand of rational-irrational hatred of Jews for which Achcar insists on reserving the label “anti-Semitism”? If so, then his view differs sharply from most scholarship on the topic. This is perfectly legitimate, of course, but then he would do well to mount a case for why such scholarship is mistaken, rather than just assuming it to be so, and risk the reader’s mistaking his omission for ignorance.
In another section with which one might take issue for similar reasons, Achcar reviews Nasser’s record of anti-Jewish statements. They too fail to meet the criteria of anti-Semitism, Achcar contends. Rather, Nasser was simply ignorant of the facts. In support of this view, Achcar points out that, for the most part, Nasser only uttered each claim once. Thus, only once did Nasser endorse the anti-Semitic canard The Protocols of the Elders of Zion (in 1958), only once did he refer to “the lie of the six million murdered Jews” (1964), only once did he make the claim that David Ben-Gurion had “killed as many Arabs as Hitler killed Jews” (1965), or that Israel “practiced forms of torture against the Palestinian Arab people worse than those Hitler practiced against the German Jews in the Second World War” (1970), and so on.
Achcar goes on to speculate—“it is quite possible”—that Nasser’s advisors, each time, informed him of the factual inaccuracy of what he had said. Nasser, so informed, refrained from repeating the claim. This is certainly not beyond the realm of the possible. Other historians, however, might be forgiven for perceiving, where Achcar sees ignorance, a consistent pattern of anti-Semitic utterances running through the whole of Nasser’s presidency from 1954 to 1970.
Achcar calls for paying greater attention to the distinction between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism. For instance, the Protocols, which have gained widespread currency in the Arab world, need not necessarily be understood as an indication of anti-Semitism. Though an unequivocally anti-Semitic text on its continent of origin, in the Arab world, Achcar claims, the Protocols are understood to refer only to Zionists.
Be that as it may, the claim raises another, more difficult question, which Achcar does not address. If, in the Arabic language, it is common practice to use “Jews” and “Israelis” interchangeably, and if the anti-Zionist rhetoric in the Middle East is itself based on anti-Semitic calumnies, such as the Protocols, and patently anti-Semitic Holocaust deniers, like Roger Garaudy, are celebrated across the region, how then are we to determine where anti-Zionism ends and anti-Semitism begins? Even if we accept that anti-Jewish stereotypes in the Arab world are understood to apply only to Israelis, does it stand to reason that people will be able to maintain the distinction? The increase in Europe of anti-Semitic violence committed by Muslims outraged by the Israeli occupation suggests otherwise.
Achcar’s approach begs the question of what one hopes to accomplish by studying anti-Semitism. If it is to tease out various nuances in anti-Jewish thought, as an exercise of categorization and gradation, then Achcar’s approach makes perfect sense. But if the goal, rather, is to assess the presence and function of anti-Semitic modes of thought in the Arab world, then anti-Semitism of the indeterminate, inconsistent sort is crucially important. Indeed, to merely dismiss it as ignorance is to miss the point.
ACHCAR’S BOOK offers a striking internal contradiction on a different score. In contrast to the great lengths to which Achcar is willing to go to attenuate the facts surrounding secular Arab anti-Semitism, he seems to have no qualms about laying into the Islamists.
He does not mince words in his discussion of one of the founding fathers of contemporary Islamic fundamentalism, Rashid Rida, branding his late thought as “shameless borrowings from the most hackneyed commonplaces of the European anti-Semitism of the day.” In his treatment of Shakib Arslan, a prominent Islamist, Achcar offers abundant evidence of his anti-Semitism, calling scholars who have overlooked or downplayed it “indulgent.”
Achcar even goes so far as to argue that the explanation for the link between Nazism and Islamism was a fundamental ideological affinity in their shared hatred of the Jews. This affinity and the cooperation it engendered prefigured all practical concerns. Writes Achcar, “The explanation [for Islamo-Nazi cooperation] lies in the hatred for the Jews that obsessed these two distinct worldviews, one religious and the other racial, both of which essentialized the enemy.” Achcar’s account thus amounts to a damning indictment of the entire Islamist movement that far outdoes most of the literature on the subject.
Furthermore, the previous invocation of the logic of “my enemy’s enemy is my friend” as an extenuating circumstance cuts no ice with Achcar when the subject turns to Islamists. Talking about secular Arabs, Achcar writes, “while it may be necessary to strike an alliance with the devil under certain circumstances, it is never legitimate to become the devil’s advocate, and even less so to present the devil as an angel. Therein lies the difference between an alliance of convenience and full complicity.” But only a few pages on, this time in the context of discussing Islamists, Achcar asserts, “When ‘my enemy’s enemy’ is much worse than ‘my enemy’ from the standpoint of humanity as a whole, there can be no striking a pact, no matter what the pretext.”
The latter view fits poorly with Achcar’s earlier praise of Palestinian liberals’ rejection of Nazism. If there can be no moral justification for supporting Nazism, even on pragmatic grounds, then the rejection of that ideology is hardly praiseworthy; it is merely upholding a baseline morality, like refraining from rape or murder.
Achcar devotes a considerable portion of the book to the leader of the Palestinian national movement, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Hajj Amin al-Husseini. Spending the war years in Berlin, in close proximity to the Nazi top brass, Hajj Amin remained his “hosts’ Arab/Muslim collaborator par excellence.”
While in Berlin, the Mufti did more than merely oppose Jewish immigration to Palestine. Hajj Amin actively participated in the war effort on behalf of the Nazis, including setting up an SS force of Bosnian Muslims. In a letter to the Hungarian minister, in June 1943, Hajj Amin urged him to prevent Jews from leaving for Palestine and went on to suggest that “it would be indispensable and infinitely preferable to send them to other countries where they would find themselves under active control, for example, in Poland, in order thereby to protect oneself from their menace and avoid the consequent damage.” He mentioned Poland, as Achcar points out, knowing full well about the concentration camps in operation there. Even after the war, Hajj Amin remained steadfast on the matter of his wartime support for the Germans. Had they won, he once lamented after the war, “no trace of the Zionists would have remained in Palestine and the Arab countries.”...
IN THE final chapter of the book, Achcar discusses contemporary expressions of anti-Semitism in the Arab world. Like in previous chapters, Achcar points out that “the most important question” is the “real weight of anti-Semitism in today’s Arab world.” He poses the question, “Is the fantasy-based hatred of the Jews that was and still is typical of European racists…the equivalent of the hatred felt by Arabs enraged by the occupation and/or destruction of Arab lands?”
Achcar, of course, thinks not. But saying that European anti-Semitism does not fully exhaust the meaning of its Middle Eastern analog is a truism. It does little but reiterate the obvious point that spatial and temporal contingencies shape all ideas as they manifest themselves in different historical contexts. Tracing an idea across space and time requires paying attention to the ways in which ideas adapt to and are transformed by different contexts. The challenge of any intellectual history is to determine what should be understood as a difference of degree and what of kind, and to decide when the operating assumption is continuity and when it is change. Achcar skirts this discussion. He often stresses in-kind differences and histories of change to acquit secular politicians and intellectuals, while identifying gradual differences and historical continuities in order to pass stern judgment on Islamic thinkers and movements...
Considering the symbolic force of the Holocaust, it is crucial to maintain the distinction between a neo-Nazi shouting “Death to the Jews!” and a Palestinian shouting likewise, but who by “Jews” means “Israelis.” Context—political, cultural, or linguistic—matters. And while Palestinians have a legitimate gripe with Israel, the notion that they have one with world Jewry has to be rejected in the strongest possible terms. This requires an evenhanded approach to the issue. Mistakenly labeling something anti-Semitism that is not is as grave an error as failing to properly identify the real thing.
Achcar’s book does not fully succeed in dealing with this problem. In addition to its unhelpfully narrow understanding of anti-Semitism, it suffers from a strident anti-Zionism that sits uneasily atop the book’s primary topic. As a result, one is left with the impression that Achcar succumbs to the very malady he purports to write against. And we continue playing politics with the Holocaust.

Palestinian Leader Farouq Qaddoumi: We Supported The Nazis In WWII, Memri, December 18, 2013
In an interview with Russia Today TV on December 7, 2013, Farouq Qaddoumi, former PLO political bureau head, said: "I don't think it would be wrong to say that we were enthusiastic supporters of Germany" in World War II.
- PLO Official: We Supported the Nazis in WWII, INN, Elad Benari, Dec 19, 2013.
Former political bureau head of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) removes any doubt over Arab support for Nazi Germany.
If anyone has had doubts about the Palestinian Authority’s (PA) support for the Nazis, recent remarks by one of its leaders should make things clearer.
In an interview with Russia Today TV on December 7, Farouq Qaddoumi, the former political bureau head of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), said that Arabs were “enthusiastic supporters” of the Nazis during World War II.
The remarks were translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).
“I don't think it would be wrong to say that we were enthusiastic supporters of Germany,” Qaddoumi said in the interview, when asked by the interviewer, “Were you sympathetic with Nazi Germany in WWII?”
The interviewer, seeking to clarify, then said, “You supported Hitler and his people.” Qaddoumi replied, “Germany, yes. This was common among the Palestinians, especially since our enemy was Zionism, and we saw that Zionism was hostile to Germany, and vice versa.”
These remarks are just the latest evidence of the Arab support for Nazis and for genocide of Jews.
Recently, MEMRI posted clips from two separate rallies at Al-Quds University, in which Islamic Jihad members, cheered on by other students, take part in a live performance at which they brandish imitation assault rifles and black Islamist flags, and give Nazi salutes.
The live "show" features terrorists killing Israeli soldiers and executing a "collaborator", who is denounced as a "traitor" and a "spy", and suggests that the initial pictures, which were first released by British journalist Tom Gross, were not from a one-off incident but evidence of a much wider phenomenon.
Many Israelis point to the lionization of Nazi and other anti-Semitic figures as a reason to doubt the sincerity of the Palestinian Authority's commitment to any future peace agreement.
Just this past October, for example, Jewish motorists were horrified to see a Nazi flag flying over a major road near the Arab town of Beit Umar. The flag had apparently been placed there by residents of the town, located near Hevron.
That incident was in fact the second occasion in which Beit Umar residents had flown a Nazi flag over the same highway, in an apparent "gesture" to their Jewish neighbors.
Later that same month, a youth magazine linked to the Palestinian Authority published a list of "famous quotes" from none other than Adolf Hitler, aimed at glorifying the Nazi leader.
Also in October, reacting to ongoing incidents of incitement and anti-Semitism by the Palestinian Authority, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu noted the deep link between the Palestinian national movement and Germany's Nazi regime.
Netanyahu noted that Haj Amin Al-Husseini, the founder of "Palestinian nationalism", was an admirer and supporter of Adolf Hitler, had met the Nazi Fuhrer on numerous occasions and was actively involved in encouraging Hitler and his henchmen in their project of annihilating the Jewish people.
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has consistently said that any future Palestinian state would be free of Israelis and Jews [11].
↑ Voices from the Arab press: 'Haj Muhammad Hitler' The Media Line. The Jerusalem Post, December 10, 2020.
The strange convergence between Nazism and Islamic jihad was most apparent during World War II, when Amin al-Husseini, the grand mufti of Jerusalem, traveled to Berlin to meet with Hitler, declaring jihad against the Allies, led by Britain. In fact, there were rumors floating throughout the Arab world that Husseini gave Hitler the title “Haj Muhammad Hitler” after teaching him the theory of Islamic martyrdom.
Following World War II and the defeat of Nazism, the Western world finally rid itself of fascist movements that espoused radical ideologies. But in the East, and especially in the Arab world, the concept of political Islam continued to develop and grow into a destructive ideology. The West isolated itself against ideological extremism by uprooting Nazism, while in the Arab world, thousands of Hitler sympathizers grew up speaking Arabic and professing Islam.
Unfortunately, while Europe escaped its problematic legacy with Nazism, the Middle East became a hotbed for many of its radical ideologies. While Europe turned its face toward freedom and democracy, many in the Arab world, inspired by “Haj Muhammad Hitler,” began openly adopting Islamic fascism.

The Nazis went out of their way to court the Muslim world with varying degrees of success, and the malignant legacy of their efforts remains with us

In the end, despite Hitler's best efforts, a grand Nazi-Islamic alliance wasn't to be, not least because the Germans had underestimated the deep-seated ethnic and tribal differences among Muslims by mistaking them to be a homogenous group with a unified agenda. To the end, Hitler rued the Third Reich's failure in rousing Muslims en masse to his cause in plaintive laments to his private secretary Martin Bormann.
Yet the Nazis did succeed in one thing: poisoning the mind of many a Muslim against Jews. Anti-Semitic tropes propagated by the Third Reich, from medieval Christian blood libels to virulent conspiracy theories, have been grafted seamlessly onto old Islamic anti-Jewish prejudices, thereby gaining a new lease on life in the Muslim world. That's why it's not only the Nazis' wartime dalliance with Islam that should hold our interest but also numerous surviving Nazi stalwarts' symbiotic postwar relationships with Middle Eastern regimes, under whose shelter they sought refuge from being held to account for war crimes.
Arab states welcomed Nazi war criminals, some 4,000 of them, with open arms. "No Arab country ever expelled any of them," Rubin and Schwanitz point out, "but instead shielded [them] from prosecution" and employed them as military advisors, intelligence operatives and propagandists. Erstwhile Nazis like the rabidly anti-Jewish SS major Johann von Leers, who relocated to Cairo, converted to Islam and reinvented himself as Omar Amir von Leers, and Adolf Eichmann's right-hand man Alois Brunner, who found a new home in Damascus, proved themselves useful as avidly virulent anti-Zionist propagandists for their hosts. Others like Brunner's former boss, who was hiding out in Argentina, acted as cheerleaders for a united Arab offensive against Israel. With a book he was writing before his capture by the Mossad in 1960, Eichmann planned to lend succor to the ongoing demonization of the nascent Jewish state, as it has recently been revealed.
"Israeli bayonets are now overrunning the Egyptian people... Israeli air squadrons are bombing peaceful Egyptian villages and towns," Eichmann opined in the unpublished manuscript in 1956 apropos the Suez Canal war that year. "Who are the aggressors here? Who are the war criminals? The victims are Egyptians, Arabs, Mohammedans ... [The Jews] are the main aggressor and perpetrator against humanity in the Middle East."
That assessment has long since turned from a fringe opinion into a mainstream view on the Israeli-Arab conflict. If not for his genocidal record, Eichmann might well now be hailed by many self-styled "anti-Zionists" in the West as a prophetic voice on the Middle East. He may yet be hailed as such in spite of it.
↑ ^94.0 ^94.1 Gabriel Ben-Ami, "Look who's talking about Nazism," First Cass News1, July 17, 2009.

The truth is that, internally, the Arab world, and especially the Palestinians, have never hidden their sympathy for Nazism. After World War II, many Arab countries even opened their doors to fleeing Nazi war criminals, and some were drafted into the military effort to strike Israel (among them, Nasser's missile scientists). Giving the first name "Hitler" to Arab children is a legitimate phenomenon, and it is not uncommon to find names of Palestinians such as Hitler Saleh, Hitler Abu-Alrab or Hitler Mahmoud Abu-Libeda and more. Nazi literature, such as Hitler's book Maine Kampf, is also very popular throughout the Muslim world, including in the Palestinian Authority, which is ostensibly negotiating peace with Israel.
Ties between neo-Nazi movements and Islamist movements such as al-Qaeda and Hamas are also documented. Joint training camps of neo-Nazis and PLO terrorists operated for years in Lebanon, before the PLO war, while in the period before the Second Gulf War, neo-Nazis from Western countries settled in Baghdad, in defense of Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. Throughout the years and even today, neo-Nazi and racist militants in Europe and America maintain close ties with Palestinian and Islamist terrorist organizations. But for foreign purposes, the Palestinian Arab movement and its supporters in the West present the opposite view.

... why did it turn into an anti-Semitic-Nazi-racial persecution that is now flooding the Muslim world?
Main Kampf, from the first publications published in Ramallah after the territory was transferred to the Palestinian Authority. The book was a hit as soon as it was published - in 2000 the fifth edition was printed. According to the British historian David Price Jones, Hitler's admiration for the Arab world stems first and foremost from the ease with which he succeeded in exterminating Jews.
A study by the German government among Arab youth in the State of Israel revealed that Hitler is at the top of the list of young boys' figures they admire...
A historical description may begin at the dawn of the last century: it was around 1900, with the growing influence of Europeans in the Middle East, and with the active spread of anti-Semitism by European colonists, extreme anti-Semitism began - as an extreme orderly-doctrine - "to spread among both Christian Arabs and Muslims."
The British themselves appointed the infamous anti-Semite, Haj Amin al-Husseini, as the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. Much of the Mufti's early material comes from the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion," a document that focuses on accusing J.. of being servants of Satan, which connects to democracy, capitalism, and socialism, and does not focus on racial categories. To find true racist anti-Semitism, we must look at the intrusions perpetrated by the Nazis in the Middle East before and during World War II, exploiting the feelings of Arab populations eager to get rid of British and French imperialism. This is a well-known story, and so is the collaboration of the Mufti of Jerusalem in deepening these intrusions. Sayyid Qutb, founder of the Muslim Brotherhood and his secular enemy, Egyptian President Abdel Nasser, both continued anti-Semitic propaganda after the war, combining accusations of "devilish work" taken from "protocols" with "racism." In displaying a thing and its opposite reserved for the nightmare kingdom of propaganda, in which the principle of non-contradiction is suspended in favor of a rather malicious target, some Arabs began accusing Isr.. of [sic] Nazi racism, as did the first chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization, Ahmad Shukeiri. The "logic" is something like this: Hitler was right in his attempt to exterminate the Jews; however, the Holocaust [sic] was not and was not created, although it should have existed; the Jews killed Muslims / Arabs - that is, the J..s are the real Nazis. (We assume the conclusion is that the Jews killed the wrong people and had to finish Hitler's job and kill... themselves).
To complete the cycle, the current PLO chairman, Yasser Arafat, calls the grand mufti: 'our hero', claiming that he was "one of his soldiers" in the 1948 war.
However, the presentation of an ideology is not enough to explain its spread. The explanation lies in its political benefit.
The political benefits that the Arabs in the Middle East derived from Nazi racial propaganda in the 1930s and 1940s stood in contrast to the capitalist and democratic regimes that ruled the region. Although these regimes were in retreat, the commercial regimes of Israel and the United States, the "little satan" and the "Great satan," took their place as beneficial targets for the Muslim political elites in the region.

בכל זאת, למרות ההודאה כי שנאת יהודים היא חלק בלתי נפרד מן האיסלאם, מדוע נתגלגלה לרדיפת־גזע אנטישמית־נאצית, המציפה עתה את העולם המוסלמי?
أدول هتلر MEIN KAMPF ) بیسان מיין קאמפף , מן הפרסומים הראשונים שראו אור ברמאללה לאחר שהשטח הועבר לרשות הפלשתינית. הספר היה ללהיט מיד עם הופעתו - בשנת 2000 דווח על הדפסת המהדורה החמישית. על־פי ההיסטוריון הבריטי דיוויד פרייס ג'ונס, הערצת היטלר בעולם הערבי נובעת בראש וראשונה מן הקלות שבה עלה בידו להשמיד יהודים. מחקר של ממשלת גרמניה בקרב הנוער הערבי במדינת ישראל העלה שהיטלר נמצא בראש רשימת הדמויות הנערצות עליהם.
תיאור היסטורי עשוי להתחיל בשחר המאה הקודמת: יהיה זה בשנת 1900 בערך, עם ההשפעה הגוברת של האירופים במזרח התיכון, ועם הפצת האנטישמיות באופן פעיל על־ידי קולוניסטים אירופיים, החלה אנטישמיות קיצונית - כמשנה סדורה קיצונית - "להתפשט הן בקרב ערבים נוצרים והן בקרב המוסלמים". הבריטים עצמם מינו את האנטישמי הנודע לשמצה, חאג' אמין אל-חוסייני, למופתי הגדול של ירושלים. חלק ניכר מן החומר המוקדם של המופתי מקורו ב"פרוטוקולים של זקני ציון", מסמך המתמקד בהאשמת היהודים כעובדי השטן, המתחברים אל הדמוקרטיה , הקפיטליזם והסוציאליזם, ואינו מתמקד בקטגוריות של גזע. כדי למצוא אנטישמיות גזענית אמיתית, עלינו להתבונן בחדירות שביצעו הנאצים במזרח התיכון לפני ובמשך מלחמת העולם השנייה, תוך שהם מנצלים את רגשותיהם של האוכלוסיות הערביות, הלהוטות להיפטר מן האימפריאליזם הבריטי והצרפתי. זהו סיפור ידוע היטב, וכמוהו גם שיתוף הפעולה של המופתי של ירושלים בהעמקתן של חדירות אלה. סייד קוטוב מייסד תנועת האחים המוסלמים ואויבו החילוני, נשיא מצרים - עבד אל נאצר שניהם המשיכו בתעמולה אנטישמית אחרי המלחמה, תוך שילוב האשמה ב"עבודת השטן" הלקוחה מן "הפרוטוקולים", עם "תורת הגזע". באחד ממופעי הראווה של דבר והיפוכו השמורים לממלכת הסיוטים של התעמולה, בה מושעה עקרון אי־הסתירה לטובת מטרה זדונית די צורכה, החלו מקצת הערבים להאשים את ישראל בגזענות נאצית, כפי שנהג לעשות היו"ר הראשון של הארגון לשחרור פלשתין, אחמד שוקיירי. ה"היגיון" הוא בערך כך: היטלר צדק בניסיונו להשמיד את היהודים; לעומת זאת , השואה לא היתה ולא נבראה, אם כי צריכה היתה להתקיים; היהודים הרגו מוסלמים / ערבים -משמע, היהודים הם הנאצים האמיתיים. (אנו מניחים שהמסקנה היא כי היהודים הרגו את האנשים הלא נכונים והיה עליהם לסיים את מלאכתו של היטלר ולהרוג את עצמם). כדי להשלים את המעגל , מכנה היו"ר הנוכחי של אש"פ, יאסר ערפאת, את המופתי הגדול : 'גיבורנו' , וטוען כי היה "אחד מחייליו" במלחמת 1948. אולם הצגתה של אידיאולוגיה אין די בה כדי להסביר את תפוצתה. ההסבר נעוץ בתועלתה הפוליטית. התועלת הפוליטית שהפיקו הערבים במזרח התיכון מתעמולת הגזע הנאצית בשנות ה -30 וה -40, עמדה בניגוד למשטרים הקפיטליסטיים והדמוקרטיים אשר שלטו באזור. למרות שמשטרים אלה נמצאו בנסיגה, הרי שהמשטרים המסחריים של ישראל וארה"ב, "השטן הקטן" ו"השטן הגדול", תפסו את מקומם כמטרות מועילות לאליטות הפוליטיות המוסלמיות באיזור.

0404, July 14, 2014.
News 0404 has learned that there has recently been a significant increase in the spray-painting of swastikas and abusive graffiti against Jews throughout Israel. As will be recalled, as has been published many times here, swastikas and inscriptions against Jews have been known and have existed for years in Arab villages, but now it seems that there has been a significant increase in this issue as well, following recent events. (In the photos: swastikas at the entrance to objects, after an initial erasure attempt .)
↑ ^98.0 ^98.1 An Arab journalist admits: For over ten years, swastikas and abusive graffiti have been spray-painted against Jews 0404, May 21, 2014.

Are you told "price tag"... Here is another proof that abusive graffiti against Jews has existed in the Arab sector for many years.
For some reason, the Minister of Internal Security does not address the issue at all, the police have never acted to check who is behind the addresses, no one has thought of deleting them for all the years that have passed and beyond that, from time to time new addresses appear.
The 0404 news staff regularly presents the truth, even if it hurts someone. A journalist from the Arab sector, a resident of Taybeh, did not like to see the news that came from News 0404, about the hate crimes, swastikas and, among other things, the "Hitler was [sic] right" inscription in his city - a city in Israel. He contacted another journalist, who also had the news item...

The Arabs who spray-painted the swastika and face painting of a religious Jew did so deliberately in this location, as anyone passing by on the light rail in the area will encounter it. News system 0404 updated the Jerusalem police on the matter. This is not the first time that Arabs have spray-painted a swastika and a Jewish figure together and it seems that this is a new operation of combining the two. As you may recall, recently, hate crimes by Arabs across the country have increased. Just last night we reported on 0404 News about some events…
↑ ^100.0 ^100.1 A. Cooper, H. Brackman, "When your neighbor unfurls a Nazi flag," JPost, June 2, 2013.

Palestinians must liberate themselves from their infatuation with the swastika and the dream of a Judenrein Palestine.
Israelis live in a tough neighborhood on the verge of a complete meltdown. Most would very much like to reach a final peace deal with their Palestinian neighbors, but as the Jewish state is one-20th the size of California, there is literally no margin of error. The core issue is as much psychological as it is territorial. Do my neighbors want peace? Here is one answer, hoisted above the town of Beit Umar, adjacent to the Jewish communities of Gush Etzion: An oversized Nazi flag fluttering next to a local mosque.
A Jewish neighbor put it this way: “I felt we were going back 75 years, losing our hold on the land. The Arabs no longer feel the need to hide their murderous tendencies, announcing out loud that they wish to annihilate us.”...
The Nazi swastika: The ultimate symbol of hate and genocide. Illegal in Germany. Its use considered an actionable act of hate in most democracies. When young American neo-Nazis march with Nazi flags in Skokie, Illinois, people of all faiths rallied to back their Jewish neighbors.
But not in the Holy Land, where too many Palestinians continue to play the Nazi card over and over again in some creatively destructive ways in the media, mosques and madrassas.
Among the themes: • “Six Million” is a hoax or gross exaggeration.
• Israelis are today’s Nazis, their crimes worse that Hitler’s.
• We are sorry Hitler didn’t finish the job, but we will...
All this has been woven into a Palestinian pseudo-historical narrative, in which King David and both Solomon’s Temple and the Second Temple never existed.
The Palestinian paper Al-Hayat Al-Jadida informed its readers, “members of the Jewish religion must awaken from the coma of historical distortion” because it was “the Zionist movement and world capitalists... who wheel and deal in the Nazi and Fascist slaughter of Jews during WWII.”
Furthermore, Israelis were admonished that “what they are doing in Palestine against the Palestinian Arab people is more dangerous and criminal than what Hitler’s Holocaust brought on the Jews and the nations of the world of the 1940s.”
Today, Arab and Muslim media, bookstores, and the Internet are rife with admiring references to Hitler’s Third Reich. The sad historical truth is that Hitler found a key ally in the Holy Land: the grand mufti of Jerusalem, Muhammad Amin al-Husseini. Glorified by the German press as “the fuhrer of the Middle East” when he visited Berlin in 1941, the grand mufti organized a Muslim SS Battalion that slaughtered 90 percent of Bosnia’s Jews and made broadcasts to the Middle East urging Muslims to honor Allah by implementing their own Final Solution.
Yasser Arafat, the founder of the PLO, was the grand mufti’s ... admirer.
Today, the Palestinian Authority, which controls the West Bank, and Hamas, which controls Gaza, are locked in a struggle for control of Palestinians’ destiny. They agree on precious little, but gleefully play their Nazi cards. PA President Mahmoud Abbas completed his doctoral dissertation in Russia, defended it at the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and published it in 1984 under the title, The Other Side: the Secret Relationship Between Nazism and Zionism.
Claiming that six million Jewish deaths at the hands of the Nazis is “a gross exaggeration,” the book also argued that Zionists collaborated with Nazis in planning the Holocaust. Though he has since admitted that six million Jews were murdered by the Nazis, the themes of Abbas’ book resonate throughout the PA’s educational and propaganda apparatuses, and according to the Center for Near East Policy Research Center “is the basis for Holocaust studies in the PA.”
Hamas’ claims to Hitler bona fides are not inconsiderable.
Hamas is an offshoot of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, founded in 1928 by schoolteacher Hassan al-Banna, who modeled his organization on both Mussolini’s sqaudristi and Hitler’s brownshirts.
Hamas’ founder, Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, a disciple of Banna and admirer of Hitler, was also inspired by “the brigand sheikh” ’Izz al-Din al-Kassam whose followers killed Jews during the 1936-1939 Palestine Uprising and then joined the grand mufti in providing the Nazis with Middle Eastern operatives during World War II.
Regarding Hamas’ 1988 founding charter, which relies heavily in the notorious Protocols of the Elders of Zion, historian Robert Wistrich concludes that it “could have been written by a committee of experts composed of Adolf Hitler, Joseph Goebbels, Henry Ford and a bevy of French, Austrian, Polish or Russian anti-Semites.”

Haj Amin al-Husseini, the grand mufti of Jerusalem, is often referred to as the founder of the so-called Palestinian national movement. The mufti spent World War II in Berlin where he was the prime minister of a Nazi-Muslim government in exile. Hitler greeted the mufti as a head of state and promised him that after he won the war in Europe he would conquer the Arab world and solve the Jewish problem in Palestine. Photos and testimony have the mufti touring the death camps and letters exist of the mufti imploring Nazi’s and pro-Nazi heads of state to exterminate their Jews.
The PLO maintained long and well-documented ties with Nazi and neo-Nazi organizations. Since the advent of Oslo, the PLO, now the Palestinian Authority, has downplayed its Nazi orientation so as to fool the useful idiots on the American and Israeli Jewish left.
Nevertheless, in August of 1995, when the Israeli and Western-financed and armed Palestinian Authority police force finished its training, the graduates were sworn in with the Nazi salute. The commander of Force 17, which serves as Yasir Arafat’s personal praetorian guard and which has been linked to some of the worst atrocities against Israeli Jews in the present intifada is Fawsi Salim el Mahdi – better known by his nom de guerre “Abu Hitler.” El Mahdi acquired the nickname after naming his two sons Eichmann and Hitler.

One might ask why use the Nazi swastika that proves the Holocaust did exist while at the same time denying the Holocaust ever happened. Here, anti-Semitism's rhetorical grounding is front and center; seeking to deprive Israel of the Holocaust often understood in the Islamic world as justification for its creation but also, and relatedly, seeking to take away the Holocaust cover under which the Arab world sees Israel fighting its wars of defense and survival...
The objective of associating Israel with Nazism is also motivated by the historical development that early Muslim supporters of Nazi Germany in the Middle East did not anticipate when they were first attracted to Nazi ideology in the 1930s. That things did not develop as planned, and that Nazi Germany became synonymous with evil has not helped the Islamic world and thus what better way to distance oneself from an evil than to attach it to one's enemy, especially when evidence exists that Haj Amin Al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, not only supported Hitler's “final solution” but also organized Muslim SS troops in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

On the occasion of the hunger strike of prisoner al-'Dhanfar (Ghadanfar) Abu Atwan, who is being held in an Israeli prison, the PA's official newspaper decided to dedicate a flattering article to his family.
According to the article, the prisoner's grandfather was a terrorist who was arrested and later deported. The grandfather decided to name his son Eichmann after and as a sign of identification with the Nazi tyrant Adolf Eichmann, the architect of the "Final Solution" who was executed at the time.
The Palestinian Eichmann continued his father's path, and was arrested and imprisoned for his involvement in terrorism.
Today, the son of the Palestinian Eichmann is also behind bars... Eichmann went the same way, and was arrested in 1989 ...

Four months after the renovation of the tomb complex in Nablus and the arrangement of the entrances to the place, the 500 worshipers who went up to the tomb last night were shocked to discover that it was badly damaged - again.
Swastikas, smashing of part of the tombstone and military shoe prints in concrete - this is how Jewish worshipers found Joseph's tomb in Nablus tonight (Thursday). "Woe to a nation that allows space in this way, time and time again, unhindered, its symbols and its most sacred places," says the head of the Samaria Council, Gershon Mesika, who was among the worshipers.
Since the evacuation of Joseph's Tomb in October 2000, the tomb complex has been abandoned most of the time, vandalized and burned, with occasional groups of Jewish worshipers entering it. For long periods, the IDF completely blocked access to the site due to security warnings, but last December the tomb was renovated, and recently worshipers' visits have been held regularly, accompanied by heavy IDF security and only at night - once every few weeks.
[Military shoe prints on the grave (courtesy of the People and Land Rescue Headquarters)]
The group that entered Nablus tonight, on the occasion of Rosh Chodesh Iyar and Independence Day, had about 500 worshipers. When they reached the tomb, they discovered that it had been badly desecrated by the townspeople. Just one day after Holocaust Remembrance Day, worshipers and soldiers were shocked to find inscriptions of swastikas next to the tomb, as well as inscriptions of a sword raised on a Star of David, with drops of blood and a boot "stepped on" it, and other inscriptions.
The tomb, according to the worshipers, was also badly desecrated. Throughout the tombstone, there are signs of military footprints - according to them, of Palestinian police. In two places, the tombstone was smashed and damaged.
"Palestinian police terrorists lose humanity"
"Only barbarians can do such terrible things," Mesika said this morning. "People who are so pathologically capable of desecrating such a sacred place ... Palestinian police terrorists have long since lost every humanity. The State of Israel must return to Joseph's tomb, as even under the Oslo Accords the threats should be."
... Yossi Dagan of the Chomesh First organization, who was also present at the scene, added: "Everywhere else in the country, if Jews had done a tenth of the horror to the grave of an Arab sheikh, or even thought of doing so, the whole world would have been shocked..."

One day of January 2001, at the height of the second Palestinian Intifada (2000-2003), the Israeli press carried the picture of a procession in Ramallah, which paraded a donkey wearing a Jewish prayer shawl and sporting on its forehead a Star of David in the shape of a swastika, with Palestinian police standing by and applauding the parade. The Israeli public was deeply shaken, regarding this act of profanation and abuse as a continuation of the torching of the Jewish synagogue in Jericho and Joseph's Tomb in Nablus during the initial stages of the current upheaval. In all those cases, what transpired was a Palestinian determination, born out of frustration and hatred, to take revenge on Jewish religious symbols, knowing full well the hurt and anguish they would cause among the Israeli public.
The angered and disappointed readership of the papers was reminded that, when in 1997 a settler from Hebron heldup a poster in public in which the .. Muhammad was reviled by the drawing of a pig in his proximity, she was arrested, tried for anti-religious incitement and incarcerated for three years. That event, which rightly caused Muslim outrage, was condemned across the board by Israeli politicians and clerics, who understood the sensitivity of such provocations. Israelis had therefore expected to see a similar reaction on the part of the Palestinian authorities and their religious hierarchies, but in vain.
This phenomenon of poking the Jew in the eye in order to demean him by diminishing his national and religious symbols, has been repeatedly manifested...

Overview
On August 14, 2021, Palestinians from the village of Bayta held a demonstration near the outpost of Eviatar in Samaria. The outpost was evacuated in July 2021, but as part of the agreement with the Israeli government, the land is still controlled by the IDF, an issue which is currently being examined by the Civilian Authority. During they demonstration they ignited rags soaked in kerosene forming a swastika inside a Magen David.
It was a display planed in advance by the Palestinians, who prepared it, brought it to the location of the demonstration and set it on fire, part of the night harassment units’ activities to protest the establishment of the outpost. The Palestinian Authority (PA) and Fatah support such demonstrations and always deliberately ignored such displays. Videos of the display and the demonstrators, including children, holding torches, were uploaded to the social networks and broadcast by Hamas’ al-Quds TV.
On September 25, 2021, Israeli soldiers uploaded a video to the social networks showing a Nazi flag hanging from the power lines on the outskirts of the Palestinian village of Bayt Umar, near Hebron. Several hours later an IDF force arrived and shot the flag down. A Nazi flag was also flown in Bayt Umar in July 2014
[Right: Nazi swastika flag in Bayt Umar (social networks, September 25, 2021). Left: Nazi swastika flag on the outskirts of Bayt Umar (picture by Avraham Weiss for Tazpit News Agency, July 6, 2014).]

To the Jews he said, “We asked Hitler why he left some of you alive. He did it to show how wicked you are. We will come for you from under the ground to spread terror in your hearts and above the ground we will mangle your bodies with our rockets.

Notes on the Palestine Situation An Arab View of Mr. Truman.
At a conference for the foreign press Sayyid Ahmad Shukeiri, Director of the Jerusalem Arab Office, commenting on President Truman's last letter to Mr. Atlee with regard to Jewish immigration to Palestine, said: "I regard President Truman's repeated declarations in favor of Zionism as a sign of the decline of American democracy. Capitalistic tyranny and angling for the vote of the five million Jews are the direct cause of this... I would have thought that this latest declaration was made by one of the great Nazi leaders who had escaped prosecution at Nuremberg..."

... whereas in the eyes of the Arabs in the Land of Israel and in the surrounding countries, the Partition was a bitter failure. For them, handing over only half of Palestine to Arab hands is the same as handing over the entire country to Jews. 'Abd al-Rahman Azzam Pasha, the general secretary of the Arab League - who only four days earlier had warned the assembly that the path of partition would lead only to blood and fire" - now angrily led his delegation out of the hall. The fort was cast. Instead of sharing their biblical legacy, Jews and Arabs will be forced to fight for it. Jews and Arabs fight for it. The war began five hours after the vote. The Arab of the generation in his clothes waved to a bus on its way from the small coastal city of Netanya to Jerusalem. When the bus slowed down, the Arab pulled a submachine gun under his coat and started firing, and was soon joined by other Arabs, who were lying in ambush on the side of the road. Five Jewish passengers - two men and three women - were killed. Half an hour later, the Arab gang attacked another bus and murdered two more Jews.
On the same day, the Palestinian Arab Higher Committee declared a three-day general protest strike. Mass demonstrations by Arabs broke out across the country. In a circular distributed to British soldiers and police, the (Arab) committee demanded that they refrain from intervening. "The Arabs have taken the final solution to the Jewish problem," the leaflet said, "they will soon evacuate you. Your sisters, wives, loved ones and families are waiting for you. You have nothing in the Arab War. Why will you die?" The British soldiers seized the matter, and kept their distance when masses of Arabs surrounded the commercial district of Jerusalem on December 2 and set it on fire, an event that resulted in the death of one Jew and the injury of twenty.
Violence spread rapidly throughout the country, penetrating even within the prison walls, where Arab prisoners rioted and attacked Jewish detainees.
The overt reference to a "final solution" - Hitler's code name for the extermination of European Jews - was not accidental. Haj Amin al-Husseini, the great and charismatic Mufti of Jerusalem and head of the Palestinian Arab Higher Committee, who spent most of World War II in Berlin, broadcasted Nazi propaganda to the Middle East. Now, in Cairo, he has declared jihad for the liberation of Palestine.
His "rescue army" included two units of about a thousand fighters. One operated in the Jerusalem area under the leadership of his cousin, 'Abd al-Qader al-Husseini. The other, under the command of Hassan Salameh, who was trained in Germany, was located in the area between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. In addition to these, the Mufti, the supreme religious leader of the Palestinian Arabs, called for the recruitment of every Arab city and village into its ranks.

... ואילו בעיני הערבים בארץ ישראל ובמדינות שסביבה, היתה החלוקה כישלון מר. בשבילם, מסירת מחצית בלבד מפלשתינה לידיים ערביות, כמוה כמסירת הארץ כולה ליהודים. עבד אל-רחמן עזאם פאשה, המזכיר הכללי של הליגה הערבית – שרק ארבעה ימים קודם לכן הזהיר את העצרת שיינתיב החלוקה יוביל אך ורק לדם ואש" - הוביל כעת בזעם את משלחתו מן האולם החוצה. הפור הוטל. במקום להתחלק בירושתם התנ"כית , ייאלצו יהודים וערבים להילחם עליה. המלחמה נפתחה כבר חמש שעות לאחר ההצבעה. ערבי הדור בלבושו נופף לאוטובוס שהיה בדרכו מעיר החוף הקטנה נתניה לירושלים. כשהאוטובוס האט, שלף הערבי תת־מקלע מתחת למעילו והחל לירות, ובמהרה הצטרפו אליו ערבים נוספים, ששכבו במארב בצד הכביש. חמישה נוסעים יהודים - שני גברים ושלוש נשים, נהרגו. חצי שעה לאחר מכן תקפה אותה כנופיה ערבית אוטובוס נוסף ורצחה עוד שני יהודים.
באותו יום הכריז הוועד העליון של ערביי פלשתינה על שביתת מחאה כללית בת שלושה ימים. הפגנות המוניות של ערבים פרצו בכל הארץ. בחוזר שחולק לחיילים ולשוטרים בריטים, דרש מהם הוועד להימנע מהתערבות. "הערבים לקחו לידיהם את הפתרון הסופי לבעיה היהודית," נכתב בעלון , "בקרוב יפנו אתכם מכאן. אחיותיכם, נשיכם, אהובותיכם ובני משפחותיכם מחכים לכם. אין לכם דבר במלחמת הערבים. למה תמותו?" החיילים הבריטים תפסו את העניין, ושמרו מרחק כאשר המוני ערבים הקיפו ב־2 בדצמבר את הרובע המסחרי של ירושלים והעלו אותו באש, אירוע שהביא למותו של יהודי אחד ולפציעתם של עשרים.
האלימות התפשטה במהירות בכל רחבי הארץ, וחדרה אפילו בינות לחומות בתי הסוהר, שם התפרעו אסירים ערבים ותקפו עצורים יהודים. ההתייחסות הגלויה ל"פתרון סופי" - שֵׁם הקוד של היטלר לחיסול יהודי אירופה - לא היתה מקרית. חאג' אמין אל חוסייני, המופתי הגדול והכריזמטי של ירושלים וראש ועד ערביי פלשתינה, שהה רוב מלחמת העולם השנייה בברלין, משדר תעמולה נאצית למזרח התיכון. כעת, בקהיר, הכריז על ג'יהאד לשחרור פלשתינה.
צבא ההצלה שלו כלל שתי יחידות בנות כאלף לוחמים. האחת פעלה באזור ירושלים בהנהגת בן דודו, עבד אל־קאדר אל-חוסייני. האחרת, בפיקודו של חסן סלאמה, שהוכשר בגרמניה, התמקמה במרחב שבין תל אביב לירושלים. נוסף על אלו, קרא המופתי, המנהיג הדתי העליון של ערביי פלשתינה לגייס כל עיר וכפר ערביים לשורותיו.

At 5:40 a.m., Arabs were reported ascending from Wadi Joz to the road, and in the early morning hours an Arab shooting attack began on a Nashashibi house from the buildings and courtyards next to it. It was a counterattack initiated by Hajat Abu Gharbiya, commander of the Bab al-Zahara neighborhood. An Arab squad placed a machine gun in a window of a roof room in a building opposite Beit Nashashibi and opened fire, until one of its men was hit by Palmach gunfire. The Arab shooting caused more casualties among the Palmach members. As a result, Zivi ordered Amitai's class and the sabotage squad to seize the building south of Nashashibi's house and blow it up so that it would not block the field of vision to the south.
A search revealed that the building's occupants had hastily abandoned it, and a German flag with a black swastika in the center was found. The discovery of the flag shocked the Palmach and aroused the suspicion among them that Germans were among the Arab fighters of the neighborhood. The building was blown up and collapsed to the ground and a field of vision was created that made it possible to view the entire Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood. When Amitai returned with his class and the saboteurs, it became clear to him that Zivi was wounded in the abdomen.
Since most of the company commanders were wounded, Zivi appointed platoon commander Uri Amitai as his successor. In the meantime, he coordinated and organized the evacuation of the wounded with the battalion headquarters.
The dead and ten wounded were taken by ambulance to Hadassah Hospital on Mount Scopus. The ambulances brought food, water and ammunition to the force that remained in the Nashashibi house, which now numbered about 70-60 fighters. The stories of the wounded, who were in a good mood and confident in the results of the battle, aroused in some of the people of Hadassah an optimistic feeling that the end of the siege on Mount Scopus was near.

בשעה 05:40 דווח על ערבים העולים מוואדי ג'וז לכביש, ובשעות הבוקר המוקדמות החלה מתקפת ירי ערבית על בית נשאשיבי מהבניינים והחצרות שלידו. הייתה זו התקפת-נגד שיזם בהג'ת אבו ע'רביה, מפקד שכונת באב אל-זהרה. חוליה ערבית הציבה מקלע בחלון בחדר גג בבניין ממול בית נשאשיבי ופתחה באש, עד שאחד מאנשיה נפגע מירי אנשי הפלמ"ח. גם חמשת הלוחמים הערביים, שהתבצרו על גג בית נשאשיבי ושלטו משם על המרפסת הדרומית של הבניין, הצטרפו ללחימה. עם זאת, הערבים הסתפקו בירי ולא הסתערו על הבניין. הירי הערבי גרם לנפגעים נוספים מבין אנשי הפלמ"ח. כתוצאה מכך, הורה זיוי לכיתה של אמתי ולחוליית החבלה לתפוס את הבניין שמדרום לבית נשאשיבי ולפוצצו, כדי שלא יחסום את שדה הראייה לכיוון דרום.
בסריקה התברר, כי דיירי הבניין נטשו אותו בחופזה, ונמצא דגל גרמני עם צלב קרס שחור במרכזו. מציאת הדגל זעזעה את אנשי הפלמ"ח ועוררה בקרבם את החשד, שגרמנים נמצאים בין הלוחמים הערביים של השכונה. הבניין פוצץ וקרס עד היסוד ונוצר שדה ראייה שאיפשר לצפות על כל שכונת שייח' ג'ראח. כאשר חזר אמתי עם כיתתו והחבלנים, התברר לו כי זיוי נפצע בבטנו. מאחר ומרבית מפקדי הפלוגה נפצעו, מינה זיוי את מפקד הכיתה אורי אמיתי למחליפו, ובינתיים תיאם וארגן את פינוי הפצועים עם מפקדת הגדוד. הרוג ועשרה פצועים הובאו באמבולנסים לבית החולים "הדסה" בהר הצופים. האמבולנסים הביאו עמם מזון, מים ותחמושת לכוח שנותר בבית נשאשיבי, שמנה עתה כ־70-60 לוחמים. סיפורי הפצועים, שהיו במצב רוח טוב ובטוחים בתוצאות הקרב, עוררו בקרב חלק מאנשי "הדסה" תחושה אופטימית, שסיום המצור על הר הצופים קרוב.

Nazi-Palestinian flag
This is how the Arabs imagined the end of the war with the Jews. When our boys conquered Katamon, in the south of Jerusalem, they found inside a house these flags that the Arabs were provided by their Nazi friends with the Mufti's efforts. The flags were ready for "in due course."

The end of Tishrei 5709 ... Only a few hours ago, the exchange of gunfire between our soldiers and gangs of Kaukji volunteers ceased, and the wonderful Galilean peace has already won. We set out to tour the roads of the liberated Galilee ... The Israeli pioneer corps found sheep slaughtered .. in the Rashbi's yard, but the Kaukji men could not make their hearts rejoice in them ...
We passed the tombs of the heads of the Sanhedrin Shemaiah and Avtalion in Gush Halav and approached Sasa. At the entrance - ancient caves of ancient righteous people.
We entered the empty mosque. The mosque was built on the remains of an ancient wall of a Hebrew synagogue. In one room next to the mosque we saw a shocking painting: an Arab battle plane with a swastika on its wings bombing a Hebrew Magen David Adom ambulance, and the wounds of the passengers bleeding: in front of the ambulance and behind it two Arab armored vehicles with large swastikas. Lethal fire was fired at the ambulance from the Arab plane.
And here my right foot came across a metal thing stuck in the clay floor. And how great was my surprise when I lowered the clay over it and I saw wonderfully delicate and beautiful developments, in semicircles and different sizes, in the string of semicircles I saw three similar cuts to ancient Torah scroll patterns. A shiver went through my flesh. They are an ancient menorah. Alongside the menorah were two protruding handles for the missing jugs of oil. . I pressed the menorah to my heart, and continued to look for the rest of its parts in the immediate vicinity. Unfortunately I did not find more than that. When I returned home I continued to clean the menorah.

The Arab League... under the disguise of other names, or by fronting through other Arab or Argentine bodies, it is intensely active. Its representative until lately was Issa Nakhle, who, inter alia, published under his editorship the journal "America y Oriente", starting from November 20, 1952, until he left the country in 1956. "AMERICA Y ORIENTE" was a very efficient arm of the Arab propaganda, and reached wide circulation among the leading Peronist circles, antisemitic nationalist groups, nazi elements and university circles. ... "Delegation of the League of Arab States" and of its head, Mr. Issa Nakhle, stressing that by a campaign of instigation to racial and religious hate an attempt is being made to create in the public opinion a feeling contrary to the friendly relations between Argentina and Israel. This poisonous agitation, carried out through'the despatch of letters and pamphlets profusely distri-buted in the streets, propagates vicious slander,appealing to the most primitive instincts and attempts to convince the public of the existence of a "world Jewish plot whose objective is to throw out Christianity from the holy places in Palestine". This propaganda was a direct outgrowth of the one carried out in nazi Germany...
later he was the founder and editor of the journal "America y Oriente", known for its systematical anti-Jewish campaign and its glorification of the totalitarian regimes, particularly of the nazi Germany. In August 1956 Issa Nakhle returned to Argentina, after a prolonged trip to the Soviet Union, this time in his character of head of the "Delegation of the League of Arab States", armed with a diplomatic passport as pleni-potentiary minister of the Syrian government.

↑ The Nazism behind Palestinian murder, ILH, Apr 16, 2015.

The extermination of the Jews and the establishment of the State of Israel are regularly used as fuel for the Palestinians
[Swastika in a demonstration in support of the Palestinians]
During a social reconnaissance Operation Peace for Galilee for a paratrooper force from the 202nd Battalion that entered the PLO headquarters in Beirut. In one of the drawers I found a 'Parabellum' gun. As the son of Holocaust survivors, my heart skipped a beat. The eagle and the swastika were stamped on the pistol. The Nazi killing tool created for me a crushing mental encounter between the nightmares of my father, who lost his family in the Holocaust, and the murderous Palestinian-Islamic ideology that the gun in my hand turned into a blow.
This murderous ideology has been used regularly in the writings and speeches of senior Palestinian Authority officials since then, and is reflected in both the Hamas Charter and the platform of other Islamic organizations and is a platform for Iran and Hezbollah war preparations.
This legacy includes the masterpiece of the extermination of the Jews in Khyber by Muhammad as a role model and as an injunction to exterminate the Jews. Beyond the need to eliminate the buds of Jewish settlement and curb Jewish immigration to Israel, it was the ideological-religious meeting point of the Jerusalem Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini, a sustainable Palestinian icon, with Nazi German leader Hitler. The Hajj, which founded the "Nazi Scout Movement" as early as 1936, is to this day an exemplary figure of the Palestinian national movement in the national and religious context.
In the years 1944-1941 the Mufti lived in Berlin and served as a close adviser (on salary) to Adolf Eichmann ... Historical reports indicate a conclusion reached, according to which when the Germans conquered Israel, an extermination camp would be built in the Dotan Valley for the Jews of the land and the Islamic lands, and the Mufti would serve as the leader of Palestine after it was conquered (by Rommel).
Courtesy of Memri, every Israeli can see that the extermination of the Jews and Israel and the establishment of "Palestine" on its ruins are regularly used as fuel to incite the Palestinian public. The Jews, after all, as the propagandist Goebbels puts it: the end of a frequent lie that will eventually become a reality. , Demands that Israel "Hashem" settle the "peace-loving refugees" in its territory as part of the "right of return."
Meanwhile, the Arabs and Palestinians are killing each other in the Middle East, as well as in the Gaza Strip and especially in the al-Yarmouk suburb. This high-rise district in Damascus, whose Palestinian residents have long since become Syrians, is not at all like the tents in which millions of real Arab refugees are currently languishing from cold and famine as part of the "Arab Spring."
The Palestinians murdered and betrayed their hosts in Kuwait and Jordan, Syria and Beirut and cannot live with each other in peace even in Gaza and Judea and Samaria. And it is precisely now that the publicist Odeh Bisharath is proposing that, like Jordan, we should receive "as a gesture" Palestinian "refugees" from Syria. Someone here really loves us.
There is a habit among "those who were" to gather at a "Parliament" table and discuss hourly issues. When the memory of the Holocaust is raised as a warning sign in a hostile environment for Jews, the faces of some of the "intellectuals" at the table, who cynically claim that it is the "contempt" of the Holocaust and manipulative, anachronistic, emotional to the point of collapse, become obsolete. While some try to forget the Holocaust of the Jews, the Palestinians deny the Holocaust and try to make fun of us in the "Nakba" narrative. As for myself, the feeling of "Parabellum" will remain in my hands forever.

While no debates and no pledging conferences were organized by the UN for Jewish refugees , the mandate for UNRWA was extended decades ... donating $ 60- $ 100 million a year, to prevent the radicalization of the refugees when, in fact, the camps were the breeding ground for PLO terror. The Associated Oress reported already on June 18, 1979 that PLO terrorists controlled...
During Israel's 1982 strike against the PLO in Lebanon , the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) revealed that UNRWA schools were used as terrorist bases and that shelters and schools were used as arms depots . The IDF also discovered a training school for Fatah terrorists in Lebanon located in a vocational training school run by UNRWA at Siblin. At the Siblin Vocational Training Center situated on a mountaintop several kilometers north of Sidon, the IDF found rocket-propelled grenade launchers and missiles, Kalashnikov assault rifles, anti - tank and anti-aircraft missile launchers, hand grenades, abd an assortment of other weapons and explosives.
The center featured a modern audio-visual language laboratory to help students assigned to terrorist activities to work in different parts of the world.
The student dormitory was found strewn with military uniforms. In one room, a picture of Arafat on the wall was flanked by a large black swastika on a red background. A captured document seemed to show that UNIFIL, the UN peacekeeping forces in southern Lebanon, provided intelligence to the PLO about coming Israeli reprisals.
Information uncovered by the IDF revealed that no student was permitted to graduate from the Siblin Center without graduating first from the Fatah course of study and serving a minimum of twelve months with the PLO. The initial coverup was undertaken by UNRWA's employees. All but 120 of the 17,000 UNRWA staff are Palestinian Arabs. As one staff member put it a few years later. "You might say we're a Palestinian agency under the UN flag."
UNRWA headquarters continued to cover up until the U.S. suspended payments in 1982 and made no new pledge for 1983.
The UN agency finally issued a report which confirmed all the charges. UNRWA's Commissioner-General Olof Rydbeck, the former Swedish ambassador at the UN, later admitted that for some time prior to the disclosure, he had not been permitted to inspect UNRWA camps in southern Lebanon without prior notice to the PLO, and then only with an escort provided by the organization...

[Tr.].

During the existence of the Palestinian Authority, the systematic desecration of holy places for Jews, especially tombs, became routine. This occurred mainly in places near Arab neighborhoods or localities. Swastikas were painted on the tombstones, abusive slogans and nationalist inscriptions were written, PLO flags were hoisted and even tombstones smashed. At the end of September 1996, these places were attacked with live fire. At Yosef's [Joseph's] tomb, about 5,000 Palestinian demonstrators and about 150 Palestinian police officers attacked a handful of IDF soldiers.
The soldiers fortified themselves in the tombs room itself after they transferred to him the Torah scrolls that were in the hall of the Beit Midrash. The Palestinians climbed the fences of the compound. They destroyed the large yeshiva building that stood in his yard and burned it down. Thousands of holy books that were in the place caught fire. The furniture was also damaged...
↑ Doron Sheffer, "Palestinian education encourages extermination of Jews", YNet, Jan 25, 2005.

Extensive research on incitement in the PA media reveals a harsh reality: the Jews are portrayed as hopeless traitors, the source of all the wars and evil in the world, and the inevitable solution - their destruction. "The Holocaust is understandable - in light of the behavior of the Jews in Europe; Balfour and Hitler had the same goal - to eliminate them." Minister Sharansky: Despite expectations from Abu Mazen, incitement broadcasts continue, Jews are portrayed as subhuman... Another example, from the Palestinian daily Al-Hayat al-Jadida from 1998, presents Zionism as a European defense program designed to get rid of the presence of Jews in Europe. According to the researchers, this historical "fact" is part of the official curriculum in the PA.
The section from the newspaper compares Hitler to Balfour: "The difference between the two was simple: the first (Hitler) had no colonies to send the Jews to, so he destroyed them, while Balfour made Palestine one of his colonies and sent the Jews there. Balfour is Hitler of the colonies, while Hitler is Balfour without colonies. Both wanted to get rid of the Jews ... Zionism was critical to defending the interests of the West in the region, while Europe got rid of its Jewish burden."

A resident of Har Bracha pulled the damaged flag and an explosion crushed his hand. A resident of Har Bracha pulled the damaged flag and an explosion shattered his hand. The pulling of the national--flag on which a swastika was painted--by Simcha Water (Votter) detonated an explosive device near the place where Yaakov Pereg and Arthur Herstig were murdered about six months ago. By Eitan Levin A trapped explosive device hidden under the national flag, on which a swastika was painted, exploded yesterday morning on the slopes of the settlement of Har Bracha in Samaria, when a resident of the settlement sought to remove the flag. The force of the explosion severely injured his hand, Simcha Votter's. He was taken to Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva, where doctors worked for hours to save his hand and restore torn blood vessels. After the surgery, Votter was taken to the intensive care unit, connected to the respirator and his condition was defined as moderate. The security forces' drive to the scene of the blast revealed that the explosive device consisted of a metal pipe containing a small amount of explosives and a retention mechanism. The cargo holders sought to attract the attention of passengers on Har Bracha Road. They placed the charge on the ground near the curb. The cargo was hidden with a large flag of the State of Israel on which they painted a swastika. The flag was nailed to a rock near the side of the road.
At 5.30, two of the residents, Yonatan Bahir and Simcha Water, left Bracha. They noticed a flag, about 1,500 meters from the entrance to the settlement. The two stopped their car. Simcha Water approached the flag and began tearing it hard from the rock. Apparently, the traction force triggered the delay mechanism that caused the charge to explode. Due to the force of the explosion, Votter was seriously injured in the hand and shrapnel was hit in the abdomen. Dr. Eliyahu Wilonsky, the hospital's deputy director, said that Water suffered a crushed wound and a rupture of blood vessels in the forearm area and that there was a serious danger to the entire arm. During the operation, vessels were restored. The blood and its condition stabilized. The explosion occurred near the place where they were murdered about six months ago, a resident of the locality, Yaakov Pereg, land Inspector of Har Bracha and the reserve soldier, Arthur Herstig from Petah Tikva.

Protocols of the Elders of Zion", an anti-semitic forgery originating in 19th-century tsarist Russia that invented a secret cabal of Jews plotting to take over the world.
The "Protocols" are enshrined in the Charter of the Palestinian organisation Hamas: "After Palestine, the Zionists aspire to expand from the Nile to the Euphrates," it says. "When they will have digested the region they overtook, they will aspire to further expansion, and so on. Their plan is embodied in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, and their present conduct is the best proof of what we are saying." An Arabic translation of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf is being distributed by Al-Shurouq, a Ramallah-based book distributor, to East Jerusalem and territories controlled by the Palestinian Authority. According to an Agence France Presse report on September 8, the book, previously banned by Israel, had been allowed by the PA and was sixth on the Palestinian bestseller list.
The PA, with EU funding, has been updating schoolbooks that had not been replaced since the time of Jordanian rule. Most of the anti-semitic stereotyping and incitement against Israel has gone, but last year Israel and the PA met in Cyprus to discuss how the Holocaust against the Jews should be represented. Dr Musa Al-Zu'but, chairman of the Palestinian Legislative Council education committee, writing in the PA newspaper Al-Risala on April 13, 2000, said: "There will be no such attempt to include the history of the Holocaust in the Palestinian curriculum ... The Holocaust has been exaggerated in order to present the Jews as victims of a great crime, to justify [the claim] that Palestine is necessary as a homeland for them, and to give them the right to demand compensation."

In a large mosque in Hebron, the preacher asked: "What does Allah want from us, why did he bring millions of infidel Jews to Palestine, give them a state, give them weapons and power...
When I see the parade of suicide bombers who are ready to explode so that Jewish infidels will also go with them and then I hear in the mourning arbor their parents say they will be happy if their children follow the martyrs, I ask: And they keep coming?
And he replied: "Allah loves us and helps us. Fifty years ago there was a great leader [sic] who wanted to eliminate the problem of the Jews, but failed due to the fact that the Jews were scattered all over the world. Allah, who loves us, brings everyone together in Palestine, to make our work easier."
This preacher is not the only one who spoke in praise of the Nazis... The governor of Ramallah has a nickname "Little Eichmann."

Interview with Sheikh Ali Hussein Abu-Ibrahim, a Palestinian resident of Lebanon, who claims to be 116 years old:
Question: What are the important events and meetings in your life that have left the greatest impression in your memory?
Answer: The first was the Hitler event. I met this man in Jerusalem in one of the Turkish army camps, and the friendship between us became very close. At that time I was a sergeant, while Hitler was a simple private. Relations between us became even tighter when Turkey entered the war alongside Germany. The second event was when I participated [alongside the Nazi army] in entering and conquering France. I was in charge of the cannon that shelled Paris, which had a great influence on the fall of the French capital and its conquest without considerable resistance. "Hitler congratulated me on this shelling and its aftermath ... As an artillery officer, I took part in many operations against the British and against France, until the end of World War II."

Swastikas were scrawled on ruins of one of Israel’s oldest synagogues...
A group of Jews, in a rare visit to the ruins of an ancient synagogue in an Arab village southwest of Hevron, was shocked to discover swastikas scrawled on the walls by Arabs. Israel National News learned that the discovery was made last Friday morning...
The ruins of the ancient synagogue are in Samoa, a village located in the southern Hevron Hills between Hevron and Be’er Sheva. Samoa’s Arabs have been involved in terrorist attacks against Israel since before the 1967 Six-Day War, and army-escorted public tours to the ruins are rare, the last one having been organized eight years ago.
The ruins were first discovered in 1934. The synagogue dates back to the fourth century, and Jews apparently abandoned it in the eighth century, during the beginning of Muslim rule. Muslims have built a mosque adjacent to the ruins... The synagogue that existed in ancient Samoa is significantly larger than the more widely-known ancient synagogue in nearby Susiya, he added.

Unknown assailants have scrawled graffiti, including swastikas, on the walks of Joseph's Tomb in Nablus. Soldiers and worshippers arriving at the holy site on Wednesday night, exactly one year after the completion of its renovation, rushed to erase the graffiti.
Shomron Regional Council head Gershon Mesika placed responsibility on the "Palestinian police terrorists."
Some 1,500 people visited Joseph's Tomb in a special prayer organized by the Shomron Regional Council and the Shechem Echad organization in coordination with the security forces, ahead of Yom Kippur.
When the first soldiers and worshippers arrived at the site, they immediately painted the graffiti in white and the prayer began..
Mesika added, "The Palestinian police terrorists, who tell the media that they are allegedly guarding the gravesite when IDF forces are not around, have lost all humanity a long time ago.
"These are the same terrorists in uniform who murdered Ben Yosef Livnat, may God avenge his blood, and have now allowed the decoration of the Joseph's Tomb compound with graffiti of Nazi symbols." ...
Israel's Chief Rabbis Yona Metzger and Shlomo Amar expressed their shock and disgust over the damage caused to the holy tomb. "It's unthinkable that the holiest sites serve as a target of revenge between religions," they said in a statement.
The two called on all religious clerics to strongly condemn the incident and "instill in their followers feelings of respect for the values sacred to members of other religions."

To nrg Maariv it was learned that Netanyahu's remarks followed a review presented to him in recent days by the Ministry of Strategic Affairs, which regularly monitors the incitement index in the PA. The latest review clearly showed a trend of using Nazi symbols, including at Al Quds University in Jerusalem - an institution that considers itself enlightened and pro-Western.
... University students were photographed saluting as they stepped on the Israeli flag. In addition, what has already become a permanent issue, terrorists who murdered Jews as national heroes were presented, with the maps showing the whole of western Israel as Palestine.
In another case that occurred about three weeks ago, the flag of the Nazi party was hung in the town of Beit Ummar in the southern Hebron hills. IDF forces who arrived at the scene and tried to lower the flag encountered violent opposition, to the satisfaction of the residents who even described the incident on the local Facebook page. Among other things, it was written, "Today, the Knights of the House say hang the Hitler flag on a high-voltage power cord ... Bless you for your efforts."
A similar case of hoisting the cross flag in the town was reported about six months ago. In this case, too, the flag was hung on an electric cable and could be seen when traveling from the Gush Etzion-Hebron road. The Civil Administration said the flag was removed following the complaints, with the help of the governor of Beit Umar.

↑ ^223.0 ^223.1 Yishai Friedman, The "non-racist" attacker from Jaffa works for liberation "from occupation" and admires Hitler, Makor Rishon, April 22, 2021.

The court ruled that the attackers in Jaffa did not act out of nationalist motives, but a brief browse on his Facebook page reveals quite a bit of antisemitic content.
The flipping of the nationalist, racist and anti-Semitic motives was very rapid. Too fast. Because in the story of the two attackers, members of the Garbua family, there is a lot of art and hatred of Jews... From conversations I had with Jewish residents in Jaffa who experienced harassment from their Arab neighbors, it turns out that this is not the first time that one of the brothers, Ahmad Garbua, has harassed someone who he saw as a Jew.... Ahmad Garbua was the one who said, according to his testimony in the interrogation and according to the testimony of R' Eliyahu Mali who was attacked, that "Jews will not be in Jaffa." I do not know, to me it sounds like a distinctly racist and anti-Jewish statement.
A year ago a number of Arabs beat up a yeshiva student who went to solitude on the promenade; A few weeks ago, a Jewish boy filed a complaint with the police against Arab boys who beat him and called him a "J. dog." There is a lot of violence and anti-Semitism in Jaffa, we just do not see it and are certainly less interested in hearing about it. All this until a strictly antisemitic image of two violently beating Jews with a religious appearance explodes in our face.
Jews in Jaffa, mostly religious, experience violence and anti-Semitism every week that includes beatings and harassment. The Israeli police act and stop attackers in case of a complaint, but the atmosphere among the authorities (court, municipality and also the police), quite a few locals tell me, is to sweep under the rug the nationalist and racist issue. When Arab boys beat a yeshiva student just like that on a clear day, it is a "brawl," with no nationalist or racist background, just a local criminal incident. These incidents are not reported or defined, neither by state authorities nor by the media, as hate crimes as is customary in... But everyone knows and understands that the motive is a great hatred for the presence of Jews in these places. But what makes the dance of righteousness and inclusion of the left particularly embarrassing are the publications over the years of Ahmad Garbua in which he is revealed as one who is not ashamed to spread anti-Semitism, hatred of Jews and much to Palestinian art. Not a neighbors' conflict but a national-religious struggle in which it is expressed that the Jews are "the sons of the monkeys and the pigs" and shows great enthusiasm from people like Adolf Hitler, Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein... Garbou also revealed his sincere appreciation to people like Osama bin Laden and Adolf Hitler. "May Allah have mercy on you, you lion," he wrote of bin Laden in 2013...
In 2014 he wrote admiringly of Hitler and also... In another status that year he wrote that he prayed that Allah would have mercy on the soul of the "martyr Hitler". (Ahmad Mohamad Garbou, Sep 6, 2014).
A video of admiration for Hitler in the Arabic language he uploaded, censored by YouTube...

↑ Sara Ha'etzni-Cohen, "Israel's iron fist is anything but", Oct 7, 2021.

The Arab Israelis that attacked Rabbi Mali in Jaffa were known antisemitic nationalists, yet the police prosecutor failed to note the racial motive behind the attack.
R. Eliyahu Mali is a resident of Jaffa and the head of Shirat Moshe Hesder Yeshiv in the city. Around six months ago, he and a colleague were violently assaulted when two Arabs began to kick, curse, and threaten them in broad daylight. In their resourcefulness, Mali's colleague documented the incident, something that resulted in his hospitalization. These were the days leading up to the riots of May 2021, and the images were widely distributed and resulted in a public outcry.
This week, the sense of shock grew following reports of the plea deal reached with the attackers, Ahmed and Mahmoud Garbua. In return for their confession, a ridiculous plea deal was signed that will see them sentenced to between five and nine months of community service. It is absolutely insane that the Israeli Police Prosecution and Tel Aviv Magistrate Court Judge Roy Perry both signed off on this agreement.
The police prosecutor did not even bother to assign a racial motive to the attack, something that would have resulted in more severe punishment. They failed to do this despite the fact that, as they were hitting and kicking and explicitly threatening the victims' lives, they shouted that "Jaffa will not have Jews." One of the attackers has a rich history of posting nationalist and antisemitic content on social media, including praise for Nazi leader Adolf Hitler, videos on "J. dogs and America," and "the truth about the sons of monkeys and pigs." He has also expressed a desire for the liberation of "occupied Jaffa." And that is just the tip of the iceberg. Racial motive? What racial motive?
Israelis are even more frustrated by the plea deal because all the facts are known. We know the Garbua brothers attacked Mali because they are antisemitic nationalists. The Garbua brothers know it too. Everyone knows this and admits as much behind closed doors. It is, however, a little difficult to prove. That is why they opted for the easier solution. Another question that needs to be asked is: Why did they even have to reach such a lenient plea deal in return for the brothers' confession when images of the violence exist in which the attackers' faces can clearly be seen? Everything is documented, and it is clear that they are guilty. Why, then, would you lighten their sentence in return for them confessing the obvious?

‘I believe the state of Israel may not survive. That its days are numbered. I can hardly bear to say it.’
The great Jewish theologian Emil Fackenheim, whom I met with in Jerusalem while writing a book about Hitler, emphasized one thing above all to me.
Fackenheim emphasized the salience of what has come to be known as the “614th Commandment” (after the 613 of the Orthodox). A post-Holocaust commandment.
The 614th: “Thou shall give to Hitler no posthumous victories.”
And yet Hitler is on the verge of a posthumous victory. I thought of this when I saw one of a number of disgusting Hitler-themed posters that have been showing up at anti-Israel/BDS type rallies the last few years. Demonstrations, of course, that have nothing to do with anti-Semitism; they just happen to attract a lot of pro-Nazi, pro-Hitler people and posters. There was a photo of such a poster in one of the London papers that showed Hitler in uniform with a banner across it reading: "Hitler was [sic] Right."
Hitler was not right. But, in the perspective of history, Hitler is right back.

Alsweety, a resident of the village of Beit Awa in the Binyamin region, has been posting messages saying that he “misses Hitler,” and wishes he could return to “finish the job.”

The Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) and the IDF arrested Jalal Naji Muhammad al-Sawiti, a resident of the West Bank village of Beit Awa last month on suspicion of "incitement and supporting a hostile organization," the Shin Bet announced on Tuesday.
The suspect, who holds a high position at the Palestinian preventative security offices in Jenin, posted extremist content on Facebook, directly calling to carry out violent activity against Jews. According to the Shin Bet, al-Sawiti also wrote posts praising, sympathizing and supporting the actions of terrorists.
Examples of extremist content that the suspect posted includes pictures of Adolf Hitler and Adolf Eichmann, alongside texts saying that he longs for people like them.
The Shin Bet emphasized that "the incitement activity throughout the internet and social media in particular, inflames passions and may lead to terrorist acts."

Swastikas in the United States are making headlines in Israel, but what is happening here is not interesting ... Arabs spray-painted swastikas at a construction site on Avnei Hoshen Street in the Har Shmuel neighborhood. There is no doubt that these are Arab workers. They also get money from us and end up spitting in our faces as well. This is a serious violation and a violation of the law... Residents contacted them via Facebook (as the police are asking us to do) and no one responded or returned a reply in a few days and apparently, no one came here either. When it happens abroad, the media is quick to call it anti-Semitism, but in Israel it does not interest them.
↑ E Gruner, "Arabs spray-painted swastikas on a sign in ancient Susya", Hakol, Oct 3, 2017.

First publication: On the eve of Yom Kippur, Arabs spray-painted swastikas on a sign directing to the national heritage site in ancient Susya.
First publication: Arabs spray-painted swastikas on a sign near ancient Susya, Hakol has learned.
Residents south of Mount Hebron who discovered that on the sign on the main road of the ancient Susya junction, Arabs spray-painted a number of swastikas, sent documentation of the picture to the Jewish Voice, and a brief inquiry revealed that the swastikas were probably spray-painted on the eve of Yom Kippur. Ancient Susya is a national heritage site and operates a visitor center as well as a cafe.
The ancient Susya site and the illegal Arab outpost of the Nawaja clan next to it are currently at the center of a petition to the High Court.
The Arabs living in the Susiya area and left-wing organizations claim that it is a centuries-old Arab village, but the Regavim movement published aerial photographs showing that the illegal Arab settlement there began only 17 years ago by the Nawaja Mita family. It should be noted that interim orders of the High Court also did not work and the illegal construction in the compound continued, while the Arabs and left-wing organizations mobilize international elements in favor of intervening and pressuring Israel to refrain from harming the village.
It should be noted that this is not the first case in which Arabs spray swastikas on Mount Hebron. About three years ago, Arabs spray-painted swastikas on the ancient synagogue in Samoa. Three months ago, Arabs desecrated the monument in memory of Yossi Shuk HaYad near Beit Hagai.

Swastikas were found spray-painted on a sign outside the Susya settlement in the south Hebron hills in what residents said was an anti-Semitic attack that took place over Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement.
The graffiti was drawn on a sign directing passersby to an archaeological site belonging to the settlement, which contains the remains of an ancient Jewish village that stood from the fifth to the eighth centuries.
This wasn’t the first time such defacement had been found at or around the site. In 2014, a swastika was spray-painted on one of the walls of the ruins; and in 2015, another was spotted on the access road leading to the ancient city.

UN Watch documents more than 100 cases of hateful social media content, calls on Western governments to review funding
More than 100 employees of the UN agency that runs schools and social services for Palestinians have posted anti-Semitic content on social media, with some openly praising Adolf Hitler, a UN Watch report released on Monday shows.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) is tasked with providing aid to Palestinians. It runs schools and a plethora of social services in the West Bank, Gaza and Arab countries neighboring Israel.
In the report, titled “Beyond the Textbooks,” UN Watch highlights 22 recent cases of UNRWA staff inciting violence and spreading anti-Semitic conspiracy theories on social media, thereby violating the agency’s supposed zero-tolerance policy.
UN Watch, an independent, Geneva-based organization, further lists 113 UNRWA educators and staff who have publicly promoted violent or hateful rhetoric in recent years.
The cases include meticulous supporting documentation and stretch back to 2015.
Though it has been made aware of these problematic instances UNRWA has repeatedly failed to act on the matter, UN Watch Director Hillel Neuer told The Media Line.
“The response from UNRWA is inaction and indifference,” he said. “Our question to UNRWA is: Where is your follow-up?
“You know that you have teachers in front of a classroom who praise Hitler,” Neuer continued. “In any other classroom around the world, when it’s exposed that a teacher on social media praised Hitler, they’re fired!”
In one particularly disturbing case documented in detail in the report, an UNRWA math teacher in Gaza named Nahed Sharawi posted a video of Hitler. Accompanying captions show Sharawi endorsing the video and stating that it was chosen to “enrich and enlighten your minds and thoughts.” Shared on Facebook in early 2018, the post has since been removed or made private.

Other educators posted anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, such as Husni Masri, who teaches in the West Bank, in an area under the Palestinian Authority’s control. Masri wrote that Jews control the world, created COVID-19 and seek to destroy Islam.
Another UNRWA math teacher, Fatima Abu Mufreh, shared a post in May 2018 where she called for armed violence against Israel: “After today, nothing should speak other than the missiles of the resistance, the rifles of its jihad warriors, and our tanned forearms,” the post read.

Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan was prevented from bringing picture proving antisemitic nature of UNRWA teachers into General Assembly [24] (photo credit: SPOKESMAN FOR AMBASSADOR GILAD ERDAN)
The corrupt body, whose ill-deserved status as an agency for “refugees” keeps it in financial cover, continues to employ educators who regularly incite terrorism against Jews.
Given the nature and mission of United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), it shouldn’t have come as a surprise that Israeli Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan was prevented on Monday from entering the General Assembly hall with a prop proving the point he intended to make at a meeting about the organization.
The item was a poster illustrating the antisemitic views of an UNRWA school teacher in Gaza by praising Adolf Hitler. Erdan had equipped himself with the placard to refute the statements he knew were going to be made by UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini.
He had good reason to want to come prepared with visual evidence. The corrupt body, whose ill-deserved status as an agency for “refugees” keeps it in financial cover, continues to employ educators who regularly incite terrorism against Jews, both in the classroom and on social media.
This was one key impetus for the decision by the administration of former US president Donald Trump in 2018 to cut America’s entire aid budget to UNRWA. In the first place, the bloated agency has spent the many decades since its inception perpetuating the “refugee crisis,” rather than using its mandate to settle the approximately 600,000 “persons whose normal place of residence was Palestine during the period 1 June 1946 to 15 May 1948, and who lost both home and means of livelihood as a result of the 1948 conflict [Israel’s War of Independence].”
Second, and even more egregiously, it has actively and passively abetted terrorism. Not only does it hire people affiliated with Hamas, but the terrorist group that rules Gaza uses UNRWA schools and other buildings as facilities for the storage of weapons.
.... Lazzarini doesn’t seem to know or care that this is the case. Instead of vowing to root out such evil, he took the opportunity of the meeting in question to say that he’s “proud of UNRWA’s education system and its resources.”
UNRWA, he stated, “uses host country curricula in line with the best practices in refugee education.”
Let that sink in. The head of UNRWA acknowledged that what he’s up to is “refugee education”: encouraging kids born and raised in Judea, Samaria and Gaza – like their parents and even many of their grandparents – to embrace their misery, not extricate themselves from it.
At least he was being honest about that. Nevertheless, he out-and-out lied when he asserted that “UNRWA has a zero-tolerance policy for hate speech, incitement, discrimination, hostility or violence.”
To soften the fabrication, he added, “I am, however, acutely aware that we are operating in a highly divided and emotionally charged environment where zero risk does not exist.”
It was a typical maneuver to make UNRWA sound measured, while excusing its Gaza staff for vile behavior. He promptly corrected the faux “balance,” however, by concluding: “Politically motivated attacks on our education system, and more broadly against the agency, are increasing in frequency and in aggression. Those behind these attacks do not have the well-being of Palestinian refugee children at heart.”
No, he wasn’t joking. He even managed to keep a straight face when he insisted that UNRWA schools teach their pupils about human rights, conflict resolution, tolerance, gender equality and democracy. Hamas and Islamic Jihad operatives must have gotten a kick out of that absurdity.
ERDAN WAS certainly not amused. When it was his turn to address the gathering, he said, “I am shocked, because I brought here with me a photo of an UNRWA teacher’s post glorifying the most horrific mass murderer in history, Adolf Hitler. Unfortunately, shockingly, I was prevented from bringing in this photo in order to share this proof with the other distinguished ambassadors here.”
Bemoaning the “very dangerous precedent” of denying his “freedom of expression” and “hiding the truth from the UN,” he let it rip.
“Hamas has built terror tunnels under UNRWA schools and stored weapons,” he said. “Textbooks used in UNRWA schools have glorified terrorists, called Jews Satan’s helpers and displayed maps that erase Israel. UNRWA is part of the problem, not the solution, and the time has come for the international community to hold it accountable.”
...he told reporters that “the UN isn’t just biased; it also shuts mouths. The UNRWA commissioner-general said here that he was proud of his teachers. I didn’t allow his lies to go without a response. I will continue fighting for our truth.”
... the placard incident came on the heels of another UNRWA attempt at stifling critics. On October 3, UN Watch director Hillel Neuer was cut off in mid-sentence while testifying on this very topic via video conference before the UN Human Rights Council.
“Madame President, is UNRWA supporting peace?” he asked rhetorically, then going on to illustrate why the answer is no.
“Let us consider UN Watch’s recent report on the teachers they hire, by looking at their social media,” he began. “Nahed Sharawi, an UNRWA math teacher in Gaza, posted a video of Adolf Hitler, along with quotes ‘to enrich and enlighten your thoughts and minds.’”
He went on: “Husni Masri, an UNRWA teacher in the West Bank, posted antisemitic conspiracy theories about how Jews control the world, created the coronavirus and seek to destroy Islam.”
Just as he was about to name a certain Esraa Abdal Raheem as a third UNRWA antisemite, UNHRC President Nazhat Shameem suddenly interrupted him.
“I ask the secretariat to pause this video,” she said sternly. “I have noticed that in the course of this video, derogatory, insulting and inflammatory remarks have been made, which in particular refer to specific individuals. This amounts to personal attacks against those individuals, and it is not acceptable in this forum. This statement is out of order, and I give the floor to the next speaker, the Palestinian Return Center, Ltd.”
You honestly cannot make this stuff up.
The libelous rant that ensued – about Palestinians “deprived of their innate human right to water, due to Israeli military blockade and constant Israeli military assaults” – was predictable. After all, members of the UNHRC include China, Pakistan and Nigeria, which are among the world’s worst violators of religious and other freedoms. Spreading disinformation is the least of their sins.
.. The trouble is, as Neuer’s tireless work reveals, that UNRWA doesn’t operate in a vacuum.
On the contrary, it’s one of many dangerous United Nations NGOs that have no legitimate cause for existing, other than to pad their own coffers. UNRWA enjoys the added benefit of perpetuating Palestinian poverty while providing cover for mass murderers bent on annihilating Israel...

Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman commented and tweeted on his Twitter account that "Abu Mazen is a poor Holocaust denier, who wrote a doctorate on Holocaust denial and then also published a book on Holocaust denial. This is how he should be treated. His apology is not accepted."
Abu Mazen cited as evidence the words of "three [supposed] Jews", including none other than the Soviet dictator Josef Stalin (who was not Jewish) ...

A rioter who was captured by IDF soldiers after breaching the border fence and infiltrating into Israel on Tuesday said Hamas orchestrated the border demonstrations to stay in power.
"Hamas organized the demonstrations so that people would not 'turn' on them," he affirmed, explaining that the humanitarian situation in the strip has gotten so bad that Hamas planned out the March of Return protests to let people blow off steam, and did so in a way that would help their cause.
Their plan, as well as their propaganda, he said, worked.
"Hamas controls everything in the strip. Hamas sends us messages to our Facebook accounts and to our cellphones. They come to mosques handing leaflet saying to go to the fence. When there's electricity, and televisions can be turned on all you can see is the march. People got worn down and bored, and I'm one of those people," he said.
The detainee also seemed to back Israel's assertion that Hamas uses women and children as human shields in the protests.
"They tell women to go forward. They say to the woman: Go ahead, you are a woman, and the Israeli army does not shoot at women. They tell small children: Go ahead, the army does not shoot at small children. They tell a child to go ahead and he goes, it's a little boy. They deceive him," he laments.

At the "Black Arrow" monument in front of Gaza, the Goldin family held the "Order of Citrus" event for the 102nd time in a row, yesterday, Friday afternoon. Due to Ministry of Health restrictions, the event took place through a zoom system and in the presence of Leah and Simcha Goldin, Lt. Hadar Goldin's parents, at the monument.
During the zoom broadcast of the event, which was attended by more than 200 Israelis, Hamas members and Holocaust deniers broke in and tried to take over and disrupt it. Among other things, they broadcast songs against Israel, drew swastikas and tried to disrupt the words of the Goldin family.
Simcha Goldin referred at the event to the threats of Yahya Sinwar and said that "we are in the midst of the corona crisis that changed everything and of course the reality vis-à-vis Gaza:" I consulted with experts. The situation in Gaza is much more serious than what is reported in the reports from there. The situation there can also deteriorate at a deadly rate and the death toll in Gaza will be several times higher than it was in the Eitan Cliff War. "

We have an opportunity to prevent Gaza from becoming Italy, Spain or New York. Only a joint effort by the international community, together with the countries of the region - Israel, Egypt and Qatar, will make the aid effective. But, especially now that humanitarian aid is being provided, we must remember that the soldiers and civilians are in Gaza and must be returned here and now.

On May 13, at the height of the 11-day Hamas-initiated conflict against the Jewish state, The New York Times published a guest essay by Refaat Alareer titled, “My Child Asks...” The article falsely alleged that the Israel Defense Forces hit targets in the Gaza Strip with “no strategic value,” while implying that Israelis “draw straws” or “roll a dice” to decide “which block to annihilate” — essentially promoting a modern-day blood libel.

The evaluation of Arab Nazism in the 1930s, with Hitler's rise to power, must be seen against this background of identity values. The common explanation as if there was a common interest of hostility to France and Britain, which united allies against a common enemy and allegedly pushed the Arabs into Hitler's arms is only a partial explanation, but as a basic claim it is tainted with excessive simplicity and historical distortion. Admiration for Hitler and his party existed on the Arab street as early as the days of the Fuhrer's struggle in the 1920s, and it erupted with great enthusiasm immediately upon his rise to power in 1933. The first congratulatory telegrams he received the day after his appointment as chancellor came to him from Wolf, the German consul in Jerusalem, following which warm greetings flowed from other Arab countries.
Although the violation of the Versailles Agreements was a blatant defiance of France and Britain, it came only in 1936, with the violation of the ban on armaments of Germany, and in 1938 with the "Anschluss" - annexation of Austria.
In 1933, and in the period that lasted at least until the attack on Poland in September 1939, there was no reason to assume that Hitler, an "Anglophile" who based (in Mein Kampf) Germany's long-term strategy of cooperating with Great Britain as a principle of the new world order, as he envisioned it, would the one who would save the Arabs from English colonism.
As soon as Hitler came to power, parties were formed in Arab countries that were imitations of National Socialism. Such as a social-nationalist party in Syria led by Anton Saada, which openly and enthusiastically copied the hallmarks of Nazism. Saada, who used to present himself as the "Fuhrer of the Syrian nation," stated in his party platform that "the Syrians are a 'superior race' by their very nature."

When Hitler proclaimed the Nuremberg Race Laws in 1935, a number of Palestinian Arabs sent telegrams congratulating him... It was as early as 1933 that Husseini was in contact with the new regime in Germany. Within weeks of Hitler’s rise to power, the German consul-general in Palestine sent a telegram to Berlin reporting Husseini’s enthusiasm for Nazism and for the spread of fascism in the Middle East. When Husseini and several Arab sheiks met with the consul-general a few weeks later, he expressed his approval of the anti-Jewish boycott in Germany.
Very soon, the Husseini family had set up the Palestinian Arab Party, which was nicknamed the “Nazi Scouts.” Husseini’s brother, Jamal, was chairman of the Palestine Arab Party and a delegate to his brother’s Arab Higher Committee. It was this committee that led a led a campaign of boycotts and terror against Jews, and the bombings of British offices between 1936 and 1939.
In 1937, Husseini visited the Jerusalem German Consul, where he met with Eichmann to discuss “the Jewish question.” This meeting resulted in the Nazis agreeing to finance Husseini’s pogroms against the Jews in Palestine. Hitler publicly expressed his support for the Palestinian Arabs. This support was motivated by anti-Semitism and a suspicion of Britain’s colonial rule in the Middle East. In a speech made before the Reichstag in 1939, Hitler opined that Palestine is “occupied not by German troops but by the English,” and he accused British troops of oppressing the Arabs for “the benefit of J... interlopers.”… Palestinian scholar Edward Said, who is no friend of Israel, has conceded that Husseini “represented the Palestinian Arab national consensus.” He had “the backing of political parties that functioned in Palestine,” and was “recognised in some form by Arab governments as the voice of the Palestinian people.”

The Nazi spirit in Jaffa.
The author of "El Blug" in Jaffa tells of the strengthening of Nazi spirit among the young Arabs in the country. Unknowns painted the swastika on a glass and various utensils in Arab cafes in Jaffa.
The author tells of an incident that happened in the German cafe "Lawrence" located on the Jaffa-Tel Aviv border:
A young Arab man sitting with his friends in the same cafe spread a Nazi flag on the table and drank with the patrons a toast to the 'well being' of the Arab Nazism.
This upset the Jewish critics. However, Azmi Nashashibi, the deputy governor of Jaffa, intervened and said that here is a public place and if he does not like what he does, he has the authority to leave the place.
So the Jews left the place.

In May 1934, the Jerusalem police learned that extremist Arab nationalists intended to form the Palestinian Nazi Party, which aimed to fight Jews in coordination with the Nazi Party in Germany. In Israel, many swastikas began to appear on Arab homes and their cars. At the end of 1935 the number of members of the Nazi party in Israel was two hundred and eighty.

[24] GERMAN ANTI-JEWISH PROPA-GANDA IS CONDUCTED IN PALESTINE, The Sentinel, 25 April 1935.
From time to time, anti-Jewish slogans written in Arabic and German, and embellished with the swastika, appear on vacant walls and boardings in different Palestine towns, enjoining a boycott of Jewish goods and enterprises… According to well-informed local quarters , the origin of these throwaways is in a central Nazi propaganda ascent for Palestine who, it is believed, works through Arab Fascists. An attempt at Fascism was started some eighteen months ago as the only hope of Arab salvation in the present state of the Arab nationalist cause, as one young leader said. The object was to introduce an ultra-nationalistic spirit among the Arab youth. But it was more closely modelled on the National-Socialist brand of Fascism than the Italian, because the German politics embodied anti-Semitism as the central motive.

"Al Difa" changed its flavor several times: at the time of its founding it was considered the mouthpiece of the Istiqlal circles, who were then extremists and fans of fascism; Stories of direct ties formed then between its editors and Germans.

The multiplicity of parties led to an awakening in the Arab street. All parties were dragged along by the extremists of the Istiqlal, whose newspaper al-Difa'a became a Nazi propaganda pamphlet. They made efforts to attract the masses with national recommendations, strong hatred of Jews and extreme demands from the authorities. The fascist regimes in Germany and Italy were a source of inspiration and imitation to the national Arab movement. As early as 1932, the newspaper Al-Carmel wrote: "The Nazi movement is a symbol, it is a source of hope - Arab nationalism must adopt the methods of its leaders in their pursuit of independence and freedom."
The Mufti's bulletin al-Jamaa al-Arabiya's continued to incite the public against the government, expressing its support for fascist Italy, which the newspaper said had adopted sympathetic treatment of Arabs and the Muslim world "and supported their national aspirations."

Cultivating the "Fifth Column"
In an issue of March 15, 1935, "Templer das Wort" discusses ...
The newspaper noted that fascism and Nazism had become a flag in the eyes of the Arabs in their political war. Adolf Hitler - continued "Das Wort" - is portrayed in the consciousness of the Arabs as the great personality of the 20th century. The popularity of our Fuhrer is so great that no Arab is present in Palestine today Even he is just a simple peasant that Adolf Hitler's hearing had not reached his ears. There are reports of attempts to form fascist and Nazi parties in the Arab public. Although these parties are secretly established, the influence of Nazi ideas on the way of thinking and behaving of the new organizations is no secret. The education of the younger Arab generation is today founded on the foundations of Nazi education; The Istiqlal Party, which began to reorganize, also adopted Nazi ideas. "This party's publication shows a clear sympathy for Nazism and fights fiercely against the Jewish boycott of Germany."
At the same time, Nazi literature in Arabic was sold on the streets of Jerusalem and in other cities of Palestine. This literature, which dealt extensively with Jews, came to Palestine from Germany; Reich printing houses printed magazines and books in Arabic in millions of copies, and the Arab audience here read them eagerly. A special interest was aroused by Hitler's "Maine Kampf" in Arabic translation. It goes without saying that the British authorities were well aware of the contents of the registered mail bundles received from party activists. Important propaganda centers were used by German hotels and boarding houses, which used to be hosted The Nazi agents who came as tourists from the Reich.
It was not difficult to gain the hearts of the Arabs in Nazi propaganda...

[30] "Swastikas in Jerusalem" Dalia Karpel, Haaretz, Feb. 28, 2008. Updated: Feb. 29, 2008.

In 1933, a branch of the Nazi party opened in Jerusalem's German Colony. Members greeted each other with the straight-armed salute, waved flags emblazoned with swastikas and cut off business ties with their Jewish neighbors. In a new book, architect David Kroyanker tells of anti-Semitic propaganda and plans to import weapons from Germany for use by Arabs against the Jews.
Kroyanker, an architect and researcher who worked on this project with his wife Leora, devotes a chapter of the book to the Nazi period: "In the Shadow of the Swastika: 1933-1939." In addition to previously published materials, like the writings of journalist and author Haviv Canaan, Kroyanker relies on new, compelling sources from private archives, such as Templer manuscripts and memoirs published in Australia in German, and adds rare photographs that are being publicized for the first time.
Kroyanker was intrigued by the human side of the German Colony's history. His book describes the customs and ways of life of this group of people whose arrival here from south Germany was akin to "landing on the moon." They settled on rocky farmland that was purchased from the Arab village of Beit Safafa and built a "model settlement."
"Look at the family photos and you'll see that they look like they stepped out of a late 19th-century magazine," he says. "They were photographed in Jerusalem dressed in their finest clothes in order to represent a European way of life in the heart of the baksheesh [a tip or bribe] wilderness. In some of the memoirs, you see their contemptuous attitude toward the Arabs...
Kroyanker stresses in his book that until Hitler came to power, the Templers and their Jewish neighbors enjoyed good relations. The Germans patronized the Jews' shops and went to Jewish doctors, while Jewish business owners stocked products from Germany and the cinemas screened German films. There were also partnerships between businessmen and merchants from the two communities.
Not all the Templers were swept up in the nationalist fervor after the Nazis' rise to power in Germany. There were some, primarily from the older generation, who worried about Nazi ideology taking precedence over the Templer ideology of messianic longings and the striving to create a Christian religious utopia. Kroyanker quotes an article from the Templer journal Warte, which criticizes Nazi ideology, saying "It ought not to be viewed as Christian, since it is founded on an Indo-German faith that leads to idol worship." But that didn't stop the growing support for Nazism.
Heil Hitler
The founder of the Nazi organization in Palestine in 1933 was the architect Karl Ruff, from Haifa. Nazi party branches were established in Haifa, Jaffa and Jerusalem and in several other Templer colonies. The Jerusalem branch was the largest; in April 1934, it had 67 registered members (the Haifa branch had 48). Ludwig Buchhalter, a teacher in the Templer school in the German Colony, was appointed head of the branch; he received instructions from Berlin and worked in coordination with the German consulate.
In April 1934, Buchhalter hosted a party for local residents at the party headquarters in Jerusalem to celebrate Hitler's birthday. The event began with a performance by the boys choir from the Schneller orphanage. "After that, Buchhalter, the branch leader, called for everyone to honor the 45-year-old fuehrer with a triple Sieg Heil salute. Of all the fuehrer's qualities, he emphasized the man's humility." Buchhalter also read aloud a chapter from the book "With Hitler on the Road to Power."
On May 1, 1934, the consulate hosted a festive reception and "it was decided that the members were now obliged to greet one another with a Heil Hitler greeting and straight-armed salute on the street, too, on condition that the greeting would not be interpreted as a provocation to others." Buchhalter summoned the party members to the Sport Club in Katamon, for a meeting with the chairman of the Nazi party in Stuttgart, who had come for a visit. That location was also used for lectures by professional Nazi propagandists, who promised their listeners that victory was assured and that they need only be patient.
Until 1934, a British branch of the Scouts operated in the German Colony and held varied activities, for boys and girls separately. The youths went on hikes and erected tent camps in the Wilhelma Templer colony, learned Morse code, knot-tying and first aid, and sang British songs. In 1934, the club was converted to a branch of the Nazi youth movement, the Hitler Jugend.
Haviv Canaan, who was an officer in the Mandate police at the time, described in his writings what Kroyanker calls "a typical National Socialist street scene in the second half of the 1930s": "Visible through the open windows of the mostly one-story houses was old but distinguished furniture, and the walls were adorned with pictures of leaders of the Reich. On the sides of the balconies, under the roof, swastika flags lay folded."
The architect and builder Hermann Imberger used to stroll down the Colony's main street every Sunday, with a swastika band around his arm, and the Arabs he passed "saluted him with admiration."...
Kroyanker also tells about the resistance that existed within the community to the Nazi activity: Philip Vorst, head of the Templer Association, banned the Nazi salute from the schools in 1935...
Ban versus ban
During the Arab revolt against the British, which began in April 1936 with a general strike that lasted six months, some Arabs saw the Templers as prospective allies in their struggle, and hoped that Nazi Germany would conquer Palestine from the British. Buchhalter told the German journalist Ralf Balke, whose book about the Nazi party in Palestine was published in 2001, how he would travel without any problem in his car, which had a Nazi flag attached, through areas that were under Arab control. And that once, when he forgot to remove the flag from the car, he "entered an area under Jewish control and came under fire from Jewish vehicles."
Sakakini writes that the German children were sympathetic to the Arabs and, during recess, would throw stones at the Jewish buses that passed the school. But the school principal, Wilhelm Eppinger, refused to join the Nazi party. In October 1937, when it was decided that the school was to be merged with the school of the city's German Evangelical community, Eppinger was dismissed and replaced by Philip Vorst, who by this point was going along with the Nazis. Vorst exhorted the parents, students and teachers who assembled for the school's grand opening to cooperate with one another in keeping with the lofty spirit of Adolf Hitler.. The German Ministry of Information and Propaganda encouraged Palestinian students to attend the German school in order to create a cadre of pro-German leadership that would govern an independent Palestinian state in the future, reports Kroyanker, quoting from a document in the state archives. Palestinian pupils made up about a quarter of the student population and were also able to study Arabic there.
Buchhalter, the head of the local Nazi branch, used to threaten residents of the Colony who didn't adhere to the Third Reich's anti-Semitic demands. Because of the attacks on Jews in Germany, the Jews in Palestine declared a ban on German businesses...
Beginning in 1935, the Nazi party branches in Palestine instructed the Germans not to employ Jewish workers, and also recommended dissolving any business partnerships with Jews. ...
Enemy property
Ludwig Buchhalter reported to the Nazi leadership in Berlin about the possibility of selling two German properties to Jews - ... Ernst Schneller, the founder's grandson, represented the Augusta Victoria Foundation here at that time, which worked to promote German nationalism. The Schneller printing house produced the Nazi party stationery and party members were entitled to a 10 percent discount. Because of the Schneller family's Nazi ties, the British secret police eavesdropped on their telephone conversations, and monitored their movements."
From secret police documents from 1936 to 1939, Kroyanker learned that the Schneller institution attempted to import weapons and ammunition from Germany, in order to train Arabs. In 1938, a booklet published by the Schneller institution included an article by Ludwig Schneller describing the feeling of suffocation at the German institution due to the proximity of Jews in the surrounding area, and expressing some blatantly anti-Semitic views...

Moshe Shemesh: The position of the Jaffa (based) newspaper, Falastin, towards the Axis Powers and the democracies. p. 260

It is not clear whether Falastin received assistance from Nazi Germany or Fascist Italy during the period under review. According to the newspaper's positive attitude towards these two countries, it is likely that it did indeed benefit from both or one of them.
The Arabs got hooked at Nazi racism and Aryan supremacy and especially by the principle of language as a unifying nationalist factor, such as the Arabic language that unites the Arab world.
This admiration of the Arab world was expressed, among other things, in political bodies that tried to emulate Nazi or fascist organizations, such as Al-Futuwwah and Al-Najjada in Palestine, the Mistr Al-Fatah in Egypt, or the Syrian National Party. The Palestinian nationalists, including the Husseinis, showed great sympathy for the Nazis. The Husseinis saw the Nazis as natural allies in their struggle against the Jews. This is also evidenced by the Mufti's personal connections..
The position of the Falastin newspaper towards the two camps - the dictatorships and the democracies - in the period reviewed until the outbreak of the war, will be examined in two areas: The formal position of the paper, as expressed in the main articles; The position of the newspaper as expressed in the manner in which the information was provided current events in Europe.

p. 261

The formal position in the main articles ...
In general, it can be noted that during the years 1939-1938, there was a constant drift in the position of the newspaper and in the position of the Arab world in general towards democracies. This process stemmed from the aggravation of the global crisis and the prominence of Nazi Germany as the most powerful power, as well as the intensification of the struggle in the country.
The first half of 1938: During this period the paper tried to be "balanced" between the two camps, but in fact tended more towards the Axis countries. In general, the newspaper raised allegations against the democratic nature of Western regimes and implicitly implied some sympathy for the dictatorial regimes. "There is not a single person who understands the spirit of the time who would agree that Italian fascism or German Hitlerism would take over Europe or the whole world, after the real English democracy had disappeared. But what man is not inclined to sympathize with this fascism or this Hitlerism, if there is in this sympathy to help the hundreds of millions remove from their hearts the bitterness for the sake of saving the world from a war that could lead to the end of human culture?" Following this line and the hidden sympathy for Germany ...

p. 266

At the same time, in order not to completely burn the bridges with the English, the editor tried to 'balance' these sharp articles in major articles that also criticized the dictatorial countries, though not on issues directly related to the Arabs but on issues related to Europe and tensions in the international arena. Due to the nature of this review. Its influence on Palestinian public opinion was minimal. The Palestinians were only slightly interested in what was happening in Europe, and most of their attention was focused on what was happening in Palestine and the struggle against the Jewish community and against Britain. This 'balance' did not, therefore, harm the positive image of the Axis powers, which prevailed in Arab public opinion at the time. Moreover, in the publication of the current information on what is happening in Europe, as will be seen later, the clear and sharp tendency to side with Germany stood...

p. 267

Censorship and the penalties imposed on the newspaper required its editors to use an elusive technique in publishing the news, which on the one hand would not give a reason to the mandate or censorship authorities to punish it and on the other hand would allow the newspaper to express its views against Britain and the West. This method of publication makes it difficult for the researcher and requires him to decipher it in order to recreate the true position of the newspaper. Understanding the method of publication will undoubtedly help to understand the trends of the newspaper in the period under review. It is possible to summarize in this way the measures taken by Palestine to overcome the obstacles of censorship and the position of the Mandatory authorities when it comes to expressing its positions by providing the information:
A. The dominant method that stands out in reading the newspaper is a quote from a foreign press including the British, French, German and Italian press. In most cases the paper used to quote a British press. He frequently quoted from it news items, commentaries, and articles that included criticism of the administration and its policies and especially articles of sympathy for the Axis powers and articles that demonstrated tendencies toward conciliation toward them. In this context, the newspaper published commentaries and articles from the German or Italian press which criticized the West or tended to the position of the Arabs.
B. Falastin contented itself with mentioning the cities of London, Rome, Paris or Berlin as the source of its information and refrained from mentioning the news agency that sent them. In sensitive news, the city of London has often been mentioned as a clear source that such a score was intended to train the news in the eyes of the censor, especially when the news is based on a quote from a British newspaper.
C. An interesting phenomenon that I encountered a lot in the newspaper: a certain article, which London is excellent as a source, starts with giving details related to the headline, but then the newspaper moves to other news under subheadings unrelated to the headline and still continues to be based on the same source. This gives the impression that London is the source of further knowledge.

"An important speech that Hitler is about to deliver with very important statements on German foreign policy.'" - He did not do so with Chamberlain's speeches. It should be emphasized that it is not the news itself that is important here, but the proportions in delivering and emphasizing the news from Germany compared to similar news from the evening that were very few.

About Hitler comparing him to Napoleon. Similarly to his treatment of Mussolini in early 1938, Falastin (March, April and May 1939) published extensively information about Hitler's actions and his character and influence. These reports were the mainstay of the foreign news page of the paper and may even be said to be more central than the reports on Mussolini in early 1938. Although the descriptions were factual, the headlines given to them were positive in tone or so-called neutral and attention-grabbing.
In presenting Germany's positive stance on the Arab issue, the Islamic-religious element was also overemphasized, in order to highlight Hitler's sympathy for Islam and the Muslim world. Hitler is also interested in following Mussolini and getting the title of Muslim defender.
Characteristically, Hitler's reference to the Palestinian problem was emphasized in his April 1, 1939, speech. The role of Palestine and the Arabs in the Fuhrer speech; We will not interfere in the affairs of others and we do not want them to interfere in our affairs: we have never asked the British about the affairs of Palestine and what is happening in it and what they want.
The shift towards a pro-German orientation was expressed in a broader report on Germany and in the emphasis on Germany's aggressive, rigid and 'bold' position in Europe ...

In 1937, Walter Doehle, German consul in Jerusalem, wrote:
“Palestinian Arabs in all social strata have great sympathies for the new Germany and its Führer … If a person identified himself as a German when faced with threats from an Arab crowd, this alone generally allowed him to pass freely. But when some identified themselves by making the ‘Heil Hitler’ salute, in most cases the Arabs’ attitude became expressions of open enthusiasm, and the German gave ovations, to which the Arabs responded loudly.” [...] The Mufti was personally responsible for the deaths of 20,000 European Jews murdered in the Nazi Holocaust. He organized the killing of 12,600 Bosnian Jews by Muslims, whom he recruited to the Waffen-SS Nazi-Bosnian division. He personally stopped 4,000 children, accompanied by 500 adults, from leaving Europe and had them sent to Auschwitz and gassed; he prevented another 2,000 Jews from leaving Romania and 1000 from leaving Hungary for Palestine – they too were sent to death camps...
The ghost of Nazi-inspired, anti-Jewish bigotry was never exorcised from the Arab world. In fact Arabs became its torch-bearers. On Jan. 14, Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas, whose university thesis was an exercise in Holocaust denial, shocked all right-thinking individuals with a speech dripping with anti-Semitism, and blaming the Jews for their own deaths in the Holocaust.

In terms of the external form, the Arab movement approached the glistening world of Fascism...
In April 1934, the Husseinis' "Al Jamia Al Arabia" (on the occasion of the opening of the Bari broadcast) wrote that Italy was the only power that had only economic and cultural trends and sought to move closer to the East.
In the same newspaper (35.4.4) Shakib Arslan wrote that Mussolini is a huge personality. The leader of European policy and that the Arabs should not be moved by the Abyssinian government that persecutes Muslims. During the Abyssinian War, the Husseinist newspapers in Italy and the opposition newspapers supported the Abyssinians.
(In 1937, "Falastin" also became pro-Italian).
Along the Italian side, Nazi Germany also began to raise its profile among the Arabs and succeeded in doing so, especially during the days of the events.
May 22, 1937, a holiday. Large Nazi flags fluttered in Jaffa. The front of the workers' association's house was adorned with swastikas. In many houses swastikas and pictures of the Fuhrer, the Duce and the leaders of the revolt were seen. In 1938, one hundred Palestine Arabs visited the Nazi party conference in Nuremberg. Needless to say, how great was the effect of the German victories, in the first period of the war, on the Arabs of the country, and how difficult was then the impression of their defeat: an Egyptian, who visited the country in the days after the conquest of Berlin wrote: "The people cry in the morning and sob in the evening.

Islamic antisemitism did not develop spontaneously but was invented and used as a means to an end. This process began about 80 years ago in the context of Arab attempts to stop the Zionist immigration to Palestine which considerably increased in the 1930s.
The first text that propagated sheer Jew-hatred in an Islamic context by mixing selected anti-Jewish episodes of Mohammed’s life with the so-called wickedness [sic] of Jews in the 20th century was a 31-page brochure in the Arabic language with the title Islam and Jewry, published on August 18, 1937 in Cairo.
In September 1937, this pamphlet achieved significance through its distribution at the “National Arab Congress” in Bludan, a health resort in Syria, 30 miles (50 kilometres) northwest of Damascus...
While historians have still to answer important questions about Islam and Jewry and Bludan, the political context which facilitated the emergence of Islamic antisemitism is quite clear....
The brochure itself culminates in the following call: “Do not tolerate the partition plan, for Palestine has been an Arab country for centuries and shall remain Arabic forever.”

[maariv1may2016-47] 47.0 ^47.1 A credible story..., M. Uziel, Maariv, May 1, 2016.

... Canaan was not just a journalist. "A trusted professional and impartial historian in his pioneering research, he was personally a great authority on Nazi-Palestinian activity in Palestine, as he was in charge of the issue as a senior officer in the British police and was involved in the entire investigation."...
Bureau 06, the police unit that prepared the evidence file for the Eichmann trial, found a very strong connection between the Mufti and Eichmann. "
It is very easy to find evidence of Eichmann and the Mufti's connections. Bureau 06 found, for example, a record of the Mufti in his personal diary on a page dated November 9, 1944, "And the good (or the faithful) in the Arab friends Eichmann." This is not only a random proof of the connection between the Mufti and Eichmann, but of the Mufti's involvement in the final solution, and of the Mufti's scale of values, according to which the extermination of the Jewish people is an act of friendship for the Arab cause. Herf attaches importance to the fact that al-Husseini was a Nazi-style extremist anti-Jew even before he arrived in Berlin. In his article, he quotes a speech delivered by the Mufti in 1937, before the outbreak of World War II and the Holocaust. The speech was delivered in Syria and when I read it I was amazed to find that it had been translated into German by the Nazi leadership at the time, published in a Nazi - controlled press and that all Nazi leaders knew it as early as 1938.
At the same conference in Syria, Husseini was elected by the 400 deputies as the honorary president of the pan-Arab organization. After World War II, Haj Amin was accepted as a hero in Egypt and Palestine. In 1946, Hassan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, called Husseini "a hero who challenged the empire and Zionism with the help of Hitler and Germany. Germany and Hitler are no more, but Amin al-Husseini will continue the struggle."
A similar attitude of admiration was shown by the Arab Supreme Council and the Palestinian People's Party, which elected him their leader in 1945. In 1948, Amin al-Husseini was the commander of the Palestinian forces during the War of Independence, whose goal was to occupy and destroy the Jewish community.
Prof. Meir Litvak, who co-authored the book "Empathy for Denial, Arab Reactions to the Holocaust," explains that al-Husseini's status among Palestinians is not excited today. "Mainly because they see him as primarily responsible for their defeat in the War of Independence," explains Prof. Litvak. "Some see him as responsible for the failure of Palestinian society to build political infrastructure and institutions as the Zionist movement did. Most writers on his activities in Germany try to downplay his actions, trying to justify his move to Germany by the British leaving him no choice, which is not true. "The Arab, and no one wants to be identified with her, despite the attempt to downplay the significance of the Holocaust. The Palestinian encyclopedia, for example, skips the years during which the Mufti stayed in Germany with the value written about him."
To a large extent, the PLO developed the lie of Zionist-Nazi cooperation in the extermination of the Jews, in order to counter the Mufti's real cooperation with the Nazis, Prof. Litvak claims. "Hamas and Islamic circles in Palestinian society, on the other hand, take a different approach," it praises the Mufti for his uncompromising stance in his struggle against Zionism, praising him for understanding the centrality of religion in the struggle against Zionism and the need to harness Islam for the war against the Jews. They have no problem with being in Nazi Germany. According to them, he did what was necessary to help the Palestinian cause. For them, the British and Americans were no better than the Germans. It would have been convenient for the Palestinians if the Germans had won the war...

From the way of nature came the struggle for the Land of Israel and instilled a great deal of venom and power in all those elements of Islam that were hostile to Jews and Judaism. Although it is quite clear that these foundations intensified in the Middle East for many years before the establishment of the State of Israel. The status of the Jewish minorities in the Arab world, as well as the status of Christians and non-Arab groups, became increasingly intolerable (and unrelated to Zionism) in the face of pan-Arabism, unique nationalism, overt anti-Semitism, and the resurgence of Muslim fanaticism.
All these trends, which have omitted the ground beneath the feet of the old Jewish communities in Arab countries, drew their power out of a common disgrace to the West and its emancipatory heritage. For it was not Islam but the hated colonialists who granted equal rights to the Jewish and Christian minorities in the Middle East. Against this background it is easy to understand why there was Nazism (and especially its anti-Jewish elements) to arouse such enthusiasm and admiration among the Arabs in the 1930s and 1940s. The words written by Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Mufti of Jerusalem and the leader of the Arabs of Israel, to Adolf Hitler on January 20, 1941, did not in any way contradict the general tone of the Arab nationalism of the period. "Arab nationalism owes Your Excellency a debt of gratitude and of recognition for having repeatedly [again and again] brought up in ringing speeches the 'question of Palestine.'"
In fact, the "question of Palestine" was intended only a marginal place in Hitler's policy and German policy until the outbreak of the war, although the Mufti did not err in seeing Hitler and German leaders as 'anti-Zionists', as opposed to the Stalinist, Trotskyist and leftist fabrications.

אף-על-פי שהאנטישמיות הסוביטית לא הגיעה מעולם לאותה רמה של אידיאולוגיה טוטלית או אותה דינמיקה אסקטולוגית שאיפיינה את האידיאולוגיה של היטלר, אי אפשר להגזים בחומרת התוצאות שיש למורשה רוסית ...
אבל לעומת זאת אנו מוצאים בעולם הנוצרי של ימינו הוקרה ליהודים, התפעלות ורצון לכפר על הרדיפות של העבר - דבר הנעדר מן האיסלם כמעט לגמרי, אף שזה האחרון רשם לחובתו רשימה ארוכה של פוגרומים ביהודים ושל אפליה חוקית ממוסדת. מדרך הטבע בא המאבק על ארץ- ישראל והחדיר מידה גדושה של ארס ועוצמה בכול אותם יסודות של האיסלם שהיו עויינים ליהודים וליהדות. אם כי ברור לחלוטין שיסודות אלה הלכו והתעצמו במזרח התיכון כבר שנים רבות בטרם קמה מדינת ישראל. מעמדם של המיעוטים היהודיים בעולם הערבי - כמוהו כמעמדם של הנוצרים ושל קבוצות לא־ערביות נעשה לא נסבל יותר ויותר (ובלי שום קשר לציונות) נוכח הפאן-ערביות, הלאומנות הייחודית, האנטישמיות הגלויה ותחייתה של הפנטיות המוסלמית.
כול המגמות הללו, שהשמיטו את הקרקע מתחת לרגליהן של הקהילות היהודיות הוותיקות בארצות ערב, משכו את כוחן מתוך משטמה משותפת למערב ולמורשתו האמנציפטורית. שכן, לא האיסלם אלא הקולוניאליסטים השנואים הם שהעניקו שווי זכויות למיעוטים היהודיים והנוצריים במזרח התיכון. על רקע זה נקל להבין מדוע היה בנאציזם (ובמיוחד במרכיביו האנטי-יהודיים) כדי לעורר התפעלות והערצה כה נלהבת בקרב הערבים בשנות השלושים והארבעים. הדברים שכתב חאג' אמין אל חוסייני, המופתי של ירושלים ומנהיג ערביי ארץ-ישראל, לאדולף היטלר ב־20 בינואר 1941, לא עמדו בשום פנים בסתירה לטוֹן הכללי של הלאומנות הערבית של התקופה.

The Nazi influence in Arab reaction to Israel.

The virulent hatred that resonates today throughout the modern world, that ever-agonizing disgust felt for the Jewish people, is not an old-time Arab feeling toward the Jews. This hatred is a result of the Nazi influence, which never died. Although the Allies destroyed the Third Reich, what has lived on is the Nazi spirit. This spirit of hatred festered through the relationship between Amin Al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, and Hitler.
The Mufti's radio broadcasts were some of the most violent pro-Axis broadcasts ever produced. He had at least six stations - Berlin, Zeissen, Bari, Rome, Tokyo and Athens. He used these radio broadcasts to tell Muslims across the world to commit acts of sabotage and kill the Jews.

In 1944, laden with heavy equipment and barrels of deadly poison, Germans and Arabs in the vicinity of Jerusalem secretly landed for a joint operation against the Jewish community. He visited Auschwitz, recruited thousands of Muslims to serve the Reich, and even pushed for the establishment of an extermination camp in Israel.

"Hitler hated the Jews ... Hitler is now avenging this accursed [sic] race ..."
Operation Atlas.
Following the defeat of the Nazis in the third battle of El Alamein (November 1942), the idea of 'Operation Atlas' took shape. The planning of the operation included the secret parachuting of a group of fighters consisting of Muslims, members of the Nazi pioneering training program, and Germans from the Templar colonies in Israel, who would be equipped with ten large containers of deadly poison. According to Prof. Yossi Ben-Artzi, the cell was supposed to rekindle the Arab uprising and create a new front in the Nazi campaign, and according to Prof. Yoav Gelber, the cell was intended for an intelligence purpose of recruiting and training aides. According to the accepted version, the members of the cell sought to poison the springs of Rosh HaAyin and bring about the death of a quarter of a million Jews in the Land of Israel.

Is the occupation? Are the settlements? Is the Nakba from 48? And perhaps especially the very Jewish presence in the country? News1, October 21, 2015.

The renowned scholar, Prof. Edward Said, wrote: "In the Mufti's call for the extermination of the Jewish people, he represented the consensus of the Palestinian Arabs and served as the mouthpiece of the people. The Mufti's political successor was PLO leader Yasser Arafat" ...
In Palestinian schools, children are taught to hate Jews not because of the lack of a "political horizon." In mosques, clergy preach to hate and murder Jews not because of the lack of a "political process." Palestinian television and radio are inciting the murder of Jews not because of a "political stalemate."
The calls for the murder and extermination of the Jews are a permanent matter in the propaganda of jihad. The Palestinian leadership of both Hamas and the PA are partners in spreading hatred against Jews. All those young people who go out to stab with occasional Jewish knives do so because of the fanatical hatred and not because of the checkpoints. Palestinian boys who try to murder Jews their age do so out of hatred of Jews and not because there is a lack of budgets for schools in the West Bank.
Hatred, knife and murder of Jews is the hallmark of Palestinian and Muslim "culture." Palestinian hatred of Jews has its roots in the Muslim religion and Nazi ideology.

"To attempt to enlist United Nations in Anti-Semitic activity is not only an insult to intelligence of the U.N. delegates but a brazen desecration of the Declaration of Human Rights."
Pointing to the fact that Shukairy's outburst was promptly rebuked by the Argentinian Lucio Garcia del Sol, who disavowed and that similar denouncements came from the Chilean and other Latin-American sources, the Labor Zionist leaders stated that "The time has come for leaders of all faiths and political parties as well as men of good will to United in condemning the attempt by Arab spokesmen to revive Hitlerism's abominable use of anti-Semitism as a political tool.
"Such irresponsible mendacious talk is an affront to the memory of millions of Jewish and non-Jewish victims of Hitler's madness. It besmirches the struggle which the Free World made to eradicate the evils of Hitlerism.
"It is time for devotees of peace to say plainly to Arab leaders: 'You deceive no one by seeking to equate Israel and Zionism with Nazism or Fascism, for it is common knowledge that the Grand Mufti and other Arab leaders openly supported the Nazi and Fascist cause during World War II.' And even today Egypt employs well-known former leaders of Hitler's government such as Johannes Von Leers as advisors on its anti-Semitic activities. The Nazis in Cairo are aided by former Gestapo officers including the notorious Maj. Leopold Gleim and Maj. Bernard Bender who hold high posts in the secret police of the United Arab Republic."
Once again the Arab leadership stands exposed before the world as the inheritors of Hitler's racist mantle. In their insane desire to destroy the Jewish State, they are his anti-Semitic theories which almost destroyed the human race. What rational person can possible defend such actions?

Notwithstanding Abbasi’s claim to have based his research on a variety of primary and secondary sources, he seems to have chosen his sources selectively, presumably to service the theory of a significant degree of Palestinian Arab resistance to the Nazis. Neither the quantitative nor the qualitative aspect of this theory is supported by the evidence.
Gen. Archibald Wavell, commander of the British forces in the Middle East, opposed the formation of a Jewish regiment in the British army. According to historian Marcel Roubicek, the British High Commissioner for Palestine also feared that Jewish enlistment would inflame Arab anger. To solve that problem, he made it a condition that Jews wishing to join up find an equivalent number of Palestinian Arab volunteers to join up as well.
To accomplish this, the Jews of the Yishuv offered financial compensation to Palestinian Arabs to enlist. They ultimately succeeded in raising enough manpower from both communities to permit the formation of a Jewish regiment.
The opportunity for Palestinian Arabs to join the ranks of the British Army was thus a direct outcome of the Jewish desire to render its utmost assistance to Britain in every sphere of war activity, a point Abbasi ignores.
He is similarly fuzzy on Palestinian Arab motivation. He states, “Most of the [Palestinian Arab] volunteers were villagers and of the urban lower class, and…the economic motive played a central role in volunteering,” noting that these “motives…differed from [that of] their Jewish friends, who enlisted in the army mainly because of opposition to Nazi Germany and its racial policy toward their people, besides other motives such as the revival of a Jewish army, and the serious employment situation in the country at the beginning of the war.”
Compensation as the prevailing motivation for Palestinian Arab enlistment is supported by the evidence, but Abbasi claims their motives were in fact manifold and varied. Some Palestinian Arabs, he states, enlisted for ideological reasons, to express their opposition to Nazi ideology and loyalty to the British and their values. This motive was especially true of the urban elite and the intellectuals, he alleges, who were highly influenced by British education and culture. He does not substantiate this point sufficiently and ignores available evidence documenting contemporary Palestinian contempt for the British Army (see, for example, Prof. Kimberly Katz’s A Young Palestinian’s Diary 1941-1945, The Life of Sami Amr).
Abbasi laments that “there is hardly any reference to the thousands of Palestinian volunteers, some of whom fell in battle, while others are still listed as missing in action, and no commemoration of the fallen can be found anywhere.” He suggests this “evil” is explained by “what the Palestinian people experienced during the Nakba and its aftermath, the destruction of archives and records in addition to the loss of personal documents, and the fact that no organization was established to commemorate the volunteers and their deeds.” He thus accuses Israel of covering up the Palestinian Arab role in defeating the Nazis.
It should be noted that Abbasi persistently uses the term “Palestinians” rather than “Palestinian Arabs” in his article, starting with the title. This manipulation services the popular narrative denying any linkage between the Jewish People and Palestine. In her book World War II – The Story of a Jewish Soldier, Jewish Women of Mandatory Palestine Serving in the British Army, Esther Herlitz (later an Israeli diplomat and politician who served as a member of the Knesset) wrote, “As far as the British were concerned, we from the Jewish Yishuv, and some Arabs, were Palestinians.”

A total of 9,000 Arabs enlisted in the British Army here. Among them are many from across the Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, who came to the recruitment bureaus in Palestine. Many of them enlisted with the intention of acquiring weapons for themselves: indeed, by the end of the war only about half of the Arab soldiers remained, as the rest defected with their weapons from the army. Arab leaders who moved to Germany, led by Haj Amin al-Husseini, a former Mufti of Jerusalem, incited on German radio the Arabs to defect from the British army.
Amin al-Husseini actively assisted in the establishment of Arab and Muslim battalions in the German army. It was only after the Allied victory over Al-Alamein that it became clear to the Arab statesmen that their orientation on the Axis victory in the war had disappointed, and then they changed their position and declared their full support for the Allies.

Following this turning point, many Arab prisoners were released, who were imprisoned by the British, including organizers of riots in Palestine, and given permission to return to their homeland. Here they once again stood at the head of the Arab parties, even though they signed a letter of commitment not to be active in life ...

Our sympathies were with the Axis powers being led by Hitler from victory to victory, and with our sympathies went our prayers for the victory of Germany and her allies, and defeat for Britain and her confederates. . . . When the British government announced the formation of a Palestine force to help the war effort, our young men received the durective: do not join the Palestine force, and the response was quasi-unanimous. . . . The activities of the Italian and Gernan airforce extended to Palestine, and in September 1940 their airplanes bombed certain targets in Tel-Aviv and Haifa. The joy and excitement produced in our circles was indescribable.

"Falastin" considers the Jews to be quite in the wrong in their criticism of anti-Jewish acts in Germany. Hitler is [sic[ Innocent and Noble, strong and beloved by his people and has succeeded in saving [sic] his country from the vile (sic) Jews."
The Elders of Zion are also dragged into Falastin's article . They rule the world and do not like Hitler and are doing all they can to overthrow him, writes the Jaffa paper

...But Falastin also reflected the overall view of fascism as a national and organizational prescription, for example the writer the physician and communist (and who was close to the 'Husseini' camp) Khalil al-Budeiri in Falastin, January 5, 1936:
It is very easy to explain our youth's sympathy for the fascist idea. All the news passed on to us about this movement illustrates it as a new human revival that promises hope and prosperity. We, too, who are at the beginning of our national revival, should strive to achieve similar goals and communicate with the movements that aspire to them, this and more, adolescence tends to admire power and heroism ...
No comprehensive research has yet been conducted on the mood of the Palestinians, but the journalism of the time (the same study by the historian Dr. Mustafa Kabha) shows a great deal of admiration for the power and solidity of Nazi Germany's achievements. May 14, 1933 The first months of the reign of the German dictator and exclaimed: "Will an Arab Hitler appear among us to awaken, unite and lead us to lead us to fight and defend our rights?"
Al-Difa's newspaper had long published translated excerpts from Hitler's Mein Kampf's book. He kept a regular correspondent in Berlin who persisted in sending sympathetic articles about the achievements of the Nazi regime. The paper's editor, Ibrahim al-Shanti, called on Arab youth (in an article from June 1, 1934) to "learn from Hitler's actions and imitate them in order to achieve similar national achievements." The Jaffa-based Falastin, which criticized Mussolini, supported Hitler, as did almost all the other newspapers...
The first page of the Jaffa-based Falastin issue dated April 29, 1939. The headline announces "Hitler's historic speech," in which he rejects the Roosevelt letter, the cancellation of the naval agreement with Britain and the cancellation of the nonaggression pact on Poland. In the center of the page, around the image of the brazened face of the Nazi ruler.. the body of the report, the subtitle summarizes other parts of Hitler's speech...
This speech of Hitler was accepted by many in the world as an act of a madman who consciously degenerates humanity into the abyss. In this way, for example, even the leader of the "Young Egypt", Ahmed Hussein, responded to these words, but the Jaffa-based 'Falastin' does not hide its sympathy. The title he chose is a quote from the Fuhrer "I have built in peaceful [ways] what others have destroyed by force."

On 2 July 1942, the second day of the first battle of El Alamein, the Mufti's supporters organized a public meeting in Nablus, in order to congratulate each other on the approaching victory and to wish the Mufti a long life. Cohen reported that the Mufti's supporters in Haifa had visited the local villages of Kabatia and Yabed, where they had met with his followers in order to plan the pillaging of Jewish villages in the Jezre'el valley, after the British retreat... On the same day in July, Cohen reported that the Arabs had received news about the fate of the Jews in Europe with “open joy”. They expressed the hope that the Germans would conquer Palestine and “liberate” them from their Jews. Some of the moderate minority refused to believe the news, arguing that it was merely Jewish propaganda designed to capture the sympathy of the world, that it was inconceivable that a country of Germany's cultural level could commit atrocities such as those being reported.

Arab guards, for example, routinely flogged prisoners at “punishment camps” in the Sahara. An Algerian account of brutality at Colomb-Béchar, one of the largest Vichy labor camps, tells the story of one internee who jumped through a barracks window and escaped into the desert, only to be tracked down “by Arab soldiers on horseback who dragged him back to camp tied to their horses." The captured man was then sent to a particular hellish spot called Hadjerat M'Guil where he was tortured and died eight days later. At Djenien BouRezg, another infamous Vichy concentration camp, the sadistic commandant, Lieutenant Pierre de Ricko, had at his side a team of subordinates that included a pro-fascist Alsatian, a German who moonlighted as head ofa local gang of anti-Semitic hooligans, and an Arab policeman named Ali Guesni. At Djelfa, in the Algerian desert, the commanding officer was an- other sadist, J. Caboche, who liked to strip all the clothes off prisoners and then horsewhip them. Caboche forbade his prisoners to light any fires to keep warm. On especially cold desert nights, Caboche's loyal Arab adjutant—a man known to posterity only as Ahmed—reportedly took particular pleasure in making sure his charges froze.

In addition, the example of the Einsatzgruppen in Eastern Europe shows that the mass murders initiated by the Germans were often quickly supported by local collaborators and then smoothly implemented...
Einsatzgruppen B and C, in their vast deployment territories, also routinely made use of local personnel, who proved indispensable in carrying out the mass murders. Collaboration in the annihilation of the Jews would have proceeded smoothly outside German-occupied Europe as well. As numerous reports had long attested, a vast number of Arabs, in some cases already well organized, were ready to serve as willing accomplices of the Germans in the Middle East. Immediately after the panzer army's arrival in Africa, the central task of Rauff's Einsatzkommando—the implementation of the Holocaust in Palestine—would have been quickly put into action with the help of those collaborators.

Since he was unable to set up ... where his opponents would be tortured, he simply ordered their elimination.

Neither Palestinian or Arab people themselves nor the Hamas Charter (in which more than a few of such people believe) are taken seriously in such an approach. They are damned to play the role of the oppressed for whom intellectuals such as Gilbert Achcar tirelessly seek excuses. Maajid Nawaz calls this approach "patronizing, self-pity and mollycoddling."
To infantilize the Arabs by strictly separating the West and the East when it comes to antisemitism and Holocaust denial is of course a kind of racism in itself—albeit an apparently benevolent type of racism in the eyes of its upholders. But some might call it a "racism of low expectations," as if a Muslim person is "supposed" to uphold appalling views, while others might call it "paternalistic racism."
Another reason to neglect or downplay Arab antisemitism is the widespread bias against Israel. Achcar is a convinced anti-Zionist who has called the two-state solution, as recommended by the United Nations General Assembly in 1947, "a dishonorable surrender." He plays down the antisemitism of Hamas in order t delegitimize Israel and its defensive efforts. However, even in circumstances where prejudice against Israel is less evidently a factor, Arab Jew-hatred is still often ignored.

The Arabs and the Holocaust: The Arab-Israeli War of Narratives By Gilbert Achcar Metropolitan Books, 386 pp.

... But the book also suffers from some significant shortcomings. Its treatment of Arab anti-Semitism is incomplete, and the book is weighed down by a strong bias in favor of secular movements and a ferocious anti-Zionism that distracts from the main topic. More important, in his effort to counter the view that all Arabs are anti-Semites, Achcar goes too far in the other direction. He seems stubbornly insistent on contextualizing anti-Semitism out of existence, by a method that brings to mind the famous old dictionary definition of it as “hating Jews too much.”...
Achcar does not give a clear picture of any popular support these anti-fascist groups enjoyed. For Palestine, he cites a Zionist intelligence report from December 1941, which estimated pro-Nazi sympathies among Palestinian Arabs at 60 percent, but claims the number is exaggerated. He does not mention the poll carried out by Sari al-Sakakini, which, in February 1941, put the figure at 88 percent. Achcar also neglects to mention the prominent Palestinian educator and liberal, Khalil al-Sakakini, Sari’s father, who, in his diary, expressed repeated support for the Nazis.
IF, IN Achcar’s view, political self-interest makes up one of the missing pieces of contextualization of Arab pro-Nazi leanings, then the other is ignorance. Achcar repeatedly invokes pervasive “ideological poverty and confusion” and “sharply diverging levels of political education” in the Arab world. He laments “the alarmingly high proportion of ignorance and mindlessness among those who make public statements in the Arab world—a world governed, to its detriment, by regimes that generate just such ignorance and mindlessness.”
This repeated use of ignorance as an explanatory—and exculpatory—factor is the book’s greatest flaw. Whenever Achcar encounters anti-Semitism alongside contradictory words or deeds, the former is automatically discounted. The presence of such contradictions, he assumes, proves that it is a matter of ignorance, and not of real anti-Semitism.
In a telling section, Achcar recounts an incident that took place in 1936 during the Arab Revolt in Palestine. During a street demonstration in Tulkarm, a passing car was stopped, and one of its passengers, wearing a western-style hat, was assaulted. The man got out of the situation unscathed, however, by making the Nazi salute and shouting “Heil Hitler!” Having hoisted a Nazi flag over his car, the man drove off while the crowd cheered. Achcar does not deny that it was the man’s Nazi credentials that saved him. Nor would he deny, presumably, that had the man been Jewish, he would have been killed on the spot (as happened on numerous other occasions). Nevertheless, this does not qualify as anti-Semitism, according to Achcar. “The Arab population of Palestine would doubtless have detested Hitler had it known the real content of his doctrine,” he writes. The people acted out of simple “stupidity.”
But Achcar’s argument fails to account for how anti-Semitism operates. By definition, anti-Semitism is ignorant. It is the mistaken view that Jews qua Jews possess certain characteristics. To reserve the label of anti-Semitism, a manifestly irrational idea, for those who profess it with intellectual consistency amounts to a circular reasoning by which hardly anyone qualifies.
As Achcar’s own book makes evident, a fully fledged anti-Semitic ideology is by no means a prerequisite for violence directed specifically against Jews. One might also consult historian Christopher Browning’s book Ordinary Men about a German Ordnungspolizei Reserve Unit during the Second World War. Consisting mostly of middle-aged men of working-class background, the unit’s wartime charge was to round up Jews for transport to concentration camps in Poland. The Jews who did not fit onto the trains were to be shot. Despite having been given the option of transferring to other, less gruesome duties, most of the policemen performed their task diligently and without complaint. Browning’s point is that the Holocaust did not require personnel steeped in “eliminationist anti-Semitism,” but rather was made possible by the ready willingness of “ordinary men” without strong ideological proclivities one way or the other to commit atrocities. “If the men of Reserve Police Battalion 101 could become killers under such circumstances, what group of men cannot?” Browning concluded. Evil, it seems, remains as banal as when Hannah Arendt reported on it from Jerusalem in 1962.
Achcar’s tendency to explain anti-Semitic incidents as the result of ignorance is present throughout the book, as are the problems that arise as a result. His discussion of the Farhud, the 1941 Baghdad pogrom, in which some 180 Jews were murdered, provides another example. Based on the highly questionable assumption that it is possible to extrapolate from that isolated incident, the Farhud has often been invoked as proof of a general pattern of anti-Semitic thought across the region. Achcar is right to reject this view, but here as elsewhere, his eagerness to counter the dominant narrative’s essentializing and reductionist tendencies causes him to present an equally reductionist mirror image.
Achcar takes the prominent Middle East historian Bernard Lewis to task for inflating the numbers killed and for calling the Farhud “the first Axis-style attack on a Jewish community in an Arab land.” According to Achcar, this ignores the fact that a majority of Iraqis were opposed to the violence (a claim for which he offers no proof); that most of those who did participate were not motivated by anti-Semitism, but by the prospect of easy gain; and that many “unhesitatingly went to the Jews’ defense or provided them with aid, protection, and shelter.” Furthermore, he points out, the mob was violently suppressed (after two days) by the Iraqi Army, and many of the afflicted Jewish families subsequently received compensation from the Iraqi government.
This is all well and good. But how does Achcar imagine this to be different from any of the European pogroms, whose anti-Semitic character is undisputed? Does he believe that they, in contrast to the Farhud, were all motivated by that curious brand of rational-irrational hatred of Jews for which Achcar insists on reserving the label “anti-Semitism”? If so, then his view differs sharply from most scholarship on the topic. This is perfectly legitimate, of course, but then he would do well to mount a case for why such scholarship is mistaken, rather than just assuming it to be so, and risk the reader’s mistaking his omission for ignorance.
In another section with which one might take issue for similar reasons, Achcar reviews Nasser’s record of anti-Jewish statements. They too fail to meet the criteria of anti-Semitism, Achcar contends. Rather, Nasser was simply ignorant of the facts. In support of this view, Achcar points out that, for the most part, Nasser only uttered each claim once. Thus, only once did Nasser endorse the anti-Semitic canard The Protocols of the Elders of Zion (in 1958), only once did he refer to “the lie of the six million murdered Jews” (1964), only once did he make the claim that David Ben-Gurion had “killed as many Arabs as Hitler killed Jews” (1965), or that Israel “practiced forms of torture against the Palestinian Arab people worse than those Hitler practiced against the German Jews in the Second World War” (1970), and so on.
Achcar goes on to speculate—“it is quite possible”—that Nasser’s advisors, each time, informed him of the factual inaccuracy of what he had said. Nasser, so informed, refrained from repeating the claim. This is certainly not beyond the realm of the possible. Other historians, however, might be forgiven for perceiving, where Achcar sees ignorance, a consistent pattern of anti-Semitic utterances running through the whole of Nasser’s presidency from 1954 to 1970.
Achcar calls for paying greater attention to the distinction between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism. For instance, the Protocols, which have gained widespread currency in the Arab world, need not necessarily be understood as an indication of anti-Semitism. Though an unequivocally anti-Semitic text on its continent of origin, in the Arab world, Achcar claims, the Protocols are understood to refer only to Zionists.
Be that as it may, the claim raises another, more difficult question, which Achcar does not address. If, in the Arabic language, it is common practice to use “Jews” and “Israelis” interchangeably, and if the anti-Zionist rhetoric in the Middle East is itself based on anti-Semitic calumnies, such as the Protocols, and patently anti-Semitic Holocaust deniers, like Roger Garaudy, are celebrated across the region, how then are we to determine where anti-Zionism ends and anti-Semitism begins? Even if we accept that anti-Jewish stereotypes in the Arab world are understood to apply only to Israelis, does it stand to reason that people will be able to maintain the distinction? The increase in Europe of anti-Semitic violence committed by Muslims outraged by the Israeli occupation suggests otherwise.
Achcar’s approach begs the question of what one hopes to accomplish by studying anti-Semitism. If it is to tease out various nuances in anti-Jewish thought, as an exercise of categorization and gradation, then Achcar’s approach makes perfect sense. But if the goal, rather, is to assess the presence and function of anti-Semitic modes of thought in the Arab world, then anti-Semitism of the indeterminate, inconsistent sort is crucially important. Indeed, to merely dismiss it as ignorance is to miss the point.
ACHCAR’S BOOK offers a striking internal contradiction on a different score. In contrast to the great lengths to which Achcar is willing to go to attenuate the facts surrounding secular Arab anti-Semitism, he seems to have no qualms about laying into the Islamists.
He does not mince words in his discussion of one of the founding fathers of contemporary Islamic fundamentalism, Rashid Rida, branding his late thought as “shameless borrowings from the most hackneyed commonplaces of the European anti-Semitism of the day.” In his treatment of Shakib Arslan, a prominent Islamist, Achcar offers abundant evidence of his anti-Semitism, calling scholars who have overlooked or downplayed it “indulgent.”
Achcar even goes so far as to argue that the explanation for the link between Nazism and Islamism was a fundamental ideological affinity in their shared hatred of the Jews. This affinity and the cooperation it engendered prefigured all practical concerns. Writes Achcar, “The explanation [for Islamo-Nazi cooperation] lies in the hatred for the Jews that obsessed these two distinct worldviews, one religious and the other racial, both of which essentialized the enemy.” Achcar’s account thus amounts to a damning indictment of the entire Islamist movement that far outdoes most of the literature on the subject.
Furthermore, the previous invocation of the logic of “my enemy’s enemy is my friend” as an extenuating circumstance cuts no ice with Achcar when the subject turns to Islamists. Talking about secular Arabs, Achcar writes, “while it may be necessary to strike an alliance with the devil under certain circumstances, it is never legitimate to become the devil’s advocate, and even less so to present the devil as an angel. Therein lies the difference between an alliance of convenience and full complicity.” But only a few pages on, this time in the context of discussing Islamists, Achcar asserts, “When ‘my enemy’s enemy’ is much worse than ‘my enemy’ from the standpoint of humanity as a whole, there can be no striking a pact, no matter what the pretext.”
The latter view fits poorly with Achcar’s earlier praise of Palestinian liberals’ rejection of Nazism. If there can be no moral justification for supporting Nazism, even on pragmatic grounds, then the rejection of that ideology is hardly praiseworthy; it is merely upholding a baseline morality, like refraining from rape or murder.
Achcar devotes a considerable portion of the book to the leader of the Palestinian national movement, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Hajj Amin al-Husseini. Spending the war years in Berlin, in close proximity to the Nazi top brass, Hajj Amin remained his “hosts’ Arab/Muslim collaborator par excellence.”
While in Berlin, the Mufti did more than merely oppose Jewish immigration to Palestine. Hajj Amin actively participated in the war effort on behalf of the Nazis, including setting up an SS force of Bosnian Muslims. In a letter to the Hungarian minister, in June 1943, Hajj Amin urged him to prevent Jews from leaving for Palestine and went on to suggest that “it would be indispensable and infinitely preferable to send them to other countries where they would find themselves under active control, for example, in Poland, in order thereby to protect oneself from their menace and avoid the consequent damage.” He mentioned Poland, as Achcar points out, knowing full well about the concentration camps in operation there. Even after the war, Hajj Amin remained steadfast on the matter of his wartime support for the Germans. Had they won, he once lamented after the war, “no trace of the Zionists would have remained in Palestine and the Arab countries.”...
IN THE final chapter of the book, Achcar discusses contemporary expressions of anti-Semitism in the Arab world. Like in previous chapters, Achcar points out that “the most important question” is the “real weight of anti-Semitism in today’s Arab world.” He poses the question, “Is the fantasy-based hatred of the Jews that was and still is typical of European racists…the equivalent of the hatred felt by Arabs enraged by the occupation and/or destruction of Arab lands?”
Achcar, of course, thinks not. But saying that European anti-Semitism does not fully exhaust the meaning of its Middle Eastern analog is a truism. It does little but reiterate the obvious point that spatial and temporal contingencies shape all ideas as they manifest themselves in different historical contexts. Tracing an idea across space and time requires paying attention to the ways in which ideas adapt to and are transformed by different contexts. The challenge of any intellectual history is to determine what should be understood as a difference of degree and what of kind, and to decide when the operating assumption is continuity and when it is change. Achcar skirts this discussion. He often stresses in-kind differences and histories of change to acquit secular politicians and intellectuals, while identifying gradual differences and historical continuities in order to pass stern judgment on Islamic thinkers and movements...
Considering the symbolic force of the Holocaust, it is crucial to maintain the distinction between a neo-Nazi shouting “Death to the Jews!” and a Palestinian shouting likewise, but who by “Jews” means “Israelis.” Context—political, cultural, or linguistic—matters. And while Palestinians have a legitimate gripe with Israel, the notion that they have one with world Jewry has to be rejected in the strongest possible terms. This requires an evenhanded approach to the issue. Mistakenly labeling something anti-Semitism that is not is as grave an error as failing to properly identify the real thing.
Achcar’s book does not fully succeed in dealing with this problem. In addition to its unhelpfully narrow understanding of anti-Semitism, it suffers from a strident anti-Zionism that sits uneasily atop the book’s primary topic. As a result, one is left with the impression that Achcar succumbs to the very malady he purports to write against. And we continue playing politics with the Holocaust.

In an interview with Russia Today TV on December 7, 2013, Farouq Qaddoumi, former PLO political bureau head, said: "I don't think it would be wrong to say that we were enthusiastic supporters of Germany" in World War II.

PLO Official: We Supported the Nazis in WWII, INN, Elad Benari, Dec 19, 2013.

Former political bureau head of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) removes any doubt over Arab support for Nazi Germany.
If anyone has had doubts about the Palestinian Authority’s (PA) support for the Nazis, recent remarks by one of its leaders should make things clearer.
In an interview with Russia Today TV on December 7, Farouq Qaddoumi, the former political bureau head of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), said that Arabs were “enthusiastic supporters” of the Nazis during World War II.
The remarks were translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).
“I don't think it would be wrong to say that we were enthusiastic supporters of Germany,” Qaddoumi said in the interview, when asked by the interviewer, “Were you sympathetic with Nazi Germany in WWII?”
The interviewer, seeking to clarify, then said, “You supported Hitler and his people.” Qaddoumi replied, “Germany, yes. This was common among the Palestinians, especially since our enemy was Zionism, and we saw that Zionism was hostile to Germany, and vice versa.”
These remarks are just the latest evidence of the Arab support for Nazis and for genocide of Jews.
Recently, MEMRI posted clips from two separate rallies at Al-Quds University, in which Islamic Jihad members, cheered on by other students, take part in a live performance at which they brandish imitation assault rifles and black Islamist flags, and give Nazi salutes.
The live "show" features terrorists killing Israeli soldiers and executing a "collaborator", who is denounced as a "traitor" and a "spy", and suggests that the initial pictures, which were first released by British journalist Tom Gross, were not from a one-off incident but evidence of a much wider phenomenon.
Many Israelis point to the lionization of Nazi and other anti-Semitic figures as a reason to doubt the sincerity of the Palestinian Authority's commitment to any future peace agreement.
Just this past October, for example, Jewish motorists were horrified to see a Nazi flag flying over a major road near the Arab town of Beit Umar. The flag had apparently been placed there by residents of the town, located near Hevron.
That incident was in fact the second occasion in which Beit Umar residents had flown a Nazi flag over the same highway, in an apparent "gesture" to their Jewish neighbors.
Later that same month, a youth magazine linked to the Palestinian Authority published a list of "famous quotes" from none other than Adolf Hitler, aimed at glorifying the Nazi leader.
Also in October, reacting to ongoing incidents of incitement and anti-Semitism by the Palestinian Authority, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu noted the deep link between the Palestinian national movement and Germany's Nazi regime.
Netanyahu noted that Haj Amin Al-Husseini, the founder of "Palestinian nationalism", was an admirer and supporter of Adolf Hitler, had met the Nazi Fuhrer on numerous occasions and was actively involved in encouraging Hitler and his henchmen in their project of annihilating the Jewish people.
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has consistently said that any future Palestinian state would be free of Israelis and Jews [11].

[hajmuhammahhitler-92] Voices from the Arab press: 'Haj Muhammad Hitler' The Media Line. The Jerusalem Post, December 10, 2020.
The strange convergence between Nazism and Islamic jihad was most apparent during World War II, when Amin al-Husseini, the grand mufti of Jerusalem, traveled to Berlin to meet with Hitler, declaring jihad against the Allies, led by Britain. In fact, there were rumors floating throughout the Arab world that Husseini gave Hitler the title “Haj Muhammad Hitler” after teaching him the theory of Islamic martyrdom.
Following World War II and the defeat of Nazism, the Western world finally rid itself of fascist movements that espoused radical ideologies. But in the East, and especially in the Arab world, the concept of political Islam continued to develop and grow into a destructive ideology. The West isolated itself against ideological extremism by uprooting Nazism, while in the Arab world, thousands of Hitler sympathizers grew up speaking Arabic and professing Islam.
Unfortunately, while Europe escaped its problematic legacy with Nazism, the Middle East became a hotbed for many of its radical ideologies. While Europe turned its face toward freedom and democracy, many in the Arab world, inspired by “Haj Muhammad Hitler,” began openly adopting Islamic fascism.

[93] Tibor Krausz, "The Swastika and the Crescent," The Jerusalem Report, June 1, 2015.
The Nazis went out of their way to court the Muslim world with varying degrees of success, and the malignant legacy of their efforts remains with us

In the end, despite Hitler's best efforts, a grand Nazi-Islamic alliance wasn't to be, not least because the Germans had underestimated the deep-seated ethnic and tribal differences among Muslims by mistaking them to be a homogenous group with a unified agenda. To the end, Hitler rued the Third Reich's failure in rousing Muslims en masse to his cause in plaintive laments to his private secretary Martin Bormann.
Yet the Nazis did succeed in one thing: poisoning the mind of many a Muslim against Jews. Anti-Semitic tropes propagated by the Third Reich, from medieval Christian blood libels to virulent conspiracy theories, have been grafted seamlessly onto old Islamic anti-Jewish prejudices, thereby gaining a new lease on life in the Muslim world. That's why it's not only the Nazis' wartime dalliance with Islam that should hold our interest but also numerous surviving Nazi stalwarts' symbiotic postwar relationships with Middle Eastern regimes, under whose shelter they sought refuge from being held to account for war crimes.
Arab states welcomed Nazi war criminals, some 4,000 of them, with open arms. "No Arab country ever expelled any of them," Rubin and Schwanitz point out, "but instead shielded [them] from prosecution" and employed them as military advisors, intelligence operatives and propagandists. Erstwhile Nazis like the rabidly anti-Jewish SS major Johann von Leers, who relocated to Cairo, converted to Islam and reinvented himself as Omar Amir von Leers, and Adolf Eichmann's right-hand man Alois Brunner, who found a new home in Damascus, proved themselves useful as avidly virulent anti-Zionist propagandists for their hosts. Others like Brunner's former boss, who was hiding out in Argentina, acted as cheerleaders for a united Arab offensive against Israel. With a book he was writing before his capture by the Mossad in 1960, Eichmann planned to lend succor to the ongoing demonization of the nascent Jewish state, as it has recently been revealed.
"Israeli bayonets are now overrunning the Egyptian people... Israeli air squadrons are bombing peaceful Egyptian villages and towns," Eichmann opined in the unpublished manuscript in 1956 apropos the Suez Canal war that year. "Who are the aggressors here? Who are the war criminals? The victims are Egyptians, Arabs, Mohammedans ... [The Jews] are the main aggressor and perpetrator against humanity in the Middle East."
That assessment has long since turned from a fringe opinion into a mainstream view on the Israeli-Arab conflict. If not for his genocidal record, Eichmann might well now be hailed by many self-styled "anti-Zionists" in the West as a prophetic voice on the Middle East. He may yet be hailed as such in spite of it.

[gba-94] 94.0 ^94.1 Gabriel Ben-Ami, "Look who's talking about Nazism," First Cass News1, July 17, 2009.

The truth is that, internally, the Arab world, and especially the Palestinians, have never hidden their sympathy for Nazism. After World War II, many Arab countries even opened their doors to fleeing Nazi war criminals, and some were drafted into the military effort to strike Israel (among them, Nasser's missile scientists). Giving the first name "Hitler" to Arab children is a legitimate phenomenon, and it is not uncommon to find names of Palestinians such as Hitler Saleh, Hitler Abu-Alrab or Hitler Mahmoud Abu-Libeda and more. Nazi literature, such as Hitler's book Maine Kampf, is also very popular throughout the Muslim world, including in the Palestinian Authority, which is ostensibly negotiating peace with Israel.
Ties between neo-Nazi movements and Islamist movements such as al-Qaeda and Hamas are also documented. Joint training camps of neo-Nazis and PLO terrorists operated for years in Lebanon, before the PLO war, while in the period before the Second Gulf War, neo-Nazis from Western countries settled in Baghdad, in defense of Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein. Throughout the years and even today, neo-Nazi and racist militants in Europe and America maintain close ties with Palestinian and Islamist terrorist organizations. But for foreign purposes, the Palestinian Arab movement and its supporters in the West present the opposite view.

... why did it turn into an anti-Semitic-Nazi-racial persecution that is now flooding the Muslim world?
Main Kampf, from the first publications published in Ramallah after the territory was transferred to the Palestinian Authority. The book was a hit as soon as it was published - in 2000 the fifth edition was printed. According to the British historian David Price Jones, Hitler's admiration for the Arab world stems first and foremost from the ease with which he succeeded in exterminating Jews.
A study by the German government among Arab youth in the State of Israel revealed that Hitler is at the top of the list of young boys' figures they admire...
A historical description may begin at the dawn of the last century: it was around 1900, with the growing influence of Europeans in the Middle East, and with the active spread of anti-Semitism by European colonists, extreme anti-Semitism began - as an extreme orderly-doctrine - "to spread among both Christian Arabs and Muslims."
The British themselves appointed the infamous anti-Semite, Haj Amin al-Husseini, as the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. Much of the Mufti's early material comes from the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion," a document that focuses on accusing J.. of being servants of Satan, which connects to democracy, capitalism, and socialism, and does not focus on racial categories. To find true racist anti-Semitism, we must look at the intrusions perpetrated by the Nazis in the Middle East before and during World War II, exploiting the feelings of Arab populations eager to get rid of British and French imperialism. This is a well-known story, and so is the collaboration of the Mufti of Jerusalem in deepening these intrusions. Sayyid Qutb, founder of the Muslim Brotherhood and his secular enemy, Egyptian President Abdel Nasser, both continued anti-Semitic propaganda after the war, combining accusations of "devilish work" taken from "protocols" with "racism." In displaying a thing and its opposite reserved for the nightmare kingdom of propaganda, in which the principle of non-contradiction is suspended in favor of a rather malicious target, some Arabs began accusing Isr.. of [sic] Nazi racism, as did the first chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organization, Ahmad Shukeiri. The "logic" is something like this: Hitler was right in his attempt to exterminate the Jews; however, the Holocaust [sic] was not and was not created, although it should have existed; the Jews killed Muslims / Arabs - that is, the J..s are the real Nazis. (We assume the conclusion is that the Jews killed the wrong people and had to finish Hitler's job and kill... themselves).
To complete the cycle, the current PLO chairman, Yasser Arafat, calls the grand mufti: 'our hero', claiming that he was "one of his soldiers" in the 1948 war.
However, the presentation of an ideology is not enough to explain its spread. The explanation lies in its political benefit.
The political benefits that the Arabs in the Middle East derived from Nazi racial propaganda in the 1930s and 1940s stood in contrast to the capitalist and democratic regimes that ruled the region. Although these regimes were in retreat, the commercial regimes of Israel and the United States, the "little satan" and the "Great satan," took their place as beneficial targets for the Muslim political elites in the region.

בכל זאת, למרות ההודאה כי שנאת יהודים היא חלק בלתי נפרד מן האיסלאם, מדוע נתגלגלה לרדיפת־גזע אנטישמית־נאצית, המציפה עתה את העולם המוסלמי?
أدول هتلر MEIN KAMPF ) بیسان מיין קאמפף , מן הפרסומים הראשונים שראו אור ברמאללה לאחר שהשטח הועבר לרשות הפלשתינית. הספר היה ללהיט מיד עם הופעתו - בשנת 2000 דווח על הדפסת המהדורה החמישית. על־פי ההיסטוריון הבריטי דיוויד פרייס ג'ונס, הערצת היטלר בעולם הערבי נובעת בראש וראשונה מן הקלות שבה עלה בידו להשמיד יהודים. מחקר של ממשלת גרמניה בקרב הנוער הערבי במדינת ישראל העלה שהיטלר נמצא בראש רשימת הדמויות הנערצות עליהם.
תיאור היסטורי עשוי להתחיל בשחר המאה הקודמת: יהיה זה בשנת 1900 בערך, עם ההשפעה הגוברת של האירופים במזרח התיכון, ועם הפצת האנטישמיות באופן פעיל על־ידי קולוניסטים אירופיים, החלה אנטישמיות קיצונית - כמשנה סדורה קיצונית - "להתפשט הן בקרב ערבים נוצרים והן בקרב המוסלמים". הבריטים עצמם מינו את האנטישמי הנודע לשמצה, חאג' אמין אל-חוסייני, למופתי הגדול של ירושלים. חלק ניכר מן החומר המוקדם של המופתי מקורו ב"פרוטוקולים של זקני ציון", מסמך המתמקד בהאשמת היהודים כעובדי השטן, המתחברים אל הדמוקרטיה , הקפיטליזם והסוציאליזם, ואינו מתמקד בקטגוריות של גזע. כדי למצוא אנטישמיות גזענית אמיתית, עלינו להתבונן בחדירות שביצעו הנאצים במזרח התיכון לפני ובמשך מלחמת העולם השנייה, תוך שהם מנצלים את רגשותיהם של האוכלוסיות הערביות, הלהוטות להיפטר מן האימפריאליזם הבריטי והצרפתי. זהו סיפור ידוע היטב, וכמוהו גם שיתוף הפעולה של המופתי של ירושלים בהעמקתן של חדירות אלה. סייד קוטוב מייסד תנועת האחים המוסלמים ואויבו החילוני, נשיא מצרים - עבד אל נאצר שניהם המשיכו בתעמולה אנטישמית אחרי המלחמה, תוך שילוב האשמה ב"עבודת השטן" הלקוחה מן "הפרוטוקולים", עם "תורת הגזע". באחד ממופעי הראווה של דבר והיפוכו השמורים לממלכת הסיוטים של התעמולה, בה מושעה עקרון אי־הסתירה לטובת מטרה זדונית די צורכה, החלו מקצת הערבים להאשים את ישראל בגזענות נאצית, כפי שנהג לעשות היו"ר הראשון של הארגון לשחרור פלשתין, אחמד שוקיירי. ה"היגיון" הוא בערך כך: היטלר צדק בניסיונו להשמיד את היהודים; לעומת זאת , השואה לא היתה ולא נבראה, אם כי צריכה היתה להתקיים; היהודים הרגו מוסלמים / ערבים -משמע, היהודים הם הנאצים האמיתיים. (אנו מניחים שהמסקנה היא כי היהודים הרגו את האנשים הלא נכונים והיה עליהם לסיים את מלאכתו של היטלר ולהרוג את עצמם). כדי להשלים את המעגל , מכנה היו"ר הנוכחי של אש"פ, יאסר ערפאת, את המופתי הגדול : 'גיבורנו' , וטוען כי היה "אחד מחייליו" במלחמת 1948. אולם הצגתה של אידיאולוגיה אין די בה כדי להסביר את תפוצתה. ההסבר נעוץ בתועלתה הפוליטית. התועלת הפוליטית שהפיקו הערבים במזרח התיכון מתעמולת הגזע הנאצית בשנות ה -30 וה -40, עמדה בניגוד למשטרים הקפיטליסטיים והדמוקרטיים אשר שלטו באזור. למרות שמשטרים אלה נמצאו בנסיגה, הרי שהמשטרים המסחריים של ישראל וארה"ב, "השטן הקטן" ו"השטן הגדול", תפסו את מקומם כמטרות מועילות לאליטות הפוליטיות המוסלמיות באיזור.

News 0404 has learned that there has recently been a significant increase in the spray-painting of swastikas and abusive graffiti against Jews throughout Israel. As will be recalled, as has been published many times here, swastikas and inscriptions against Jews have been known and have existed for years in Arab villages, but now it seems that there has been a significant increase in this issue as well, following recent events.

Are you told "price tag"... Here is another proof that abusive graffiti against Jews has existed in the Arab sector for many years.
For some reason, the Minister of Internal Security does not address the issue at all, the police have never acted to check who is behind the addresses, no one has thought of deleting them for all the years that have passed and beyond that, from time to time new addresses appear.
The 0404 news staff regularly presents the truth, even if it hurts someone. A journalist from the Arab sector, a resident of Taybeh, did not like to see the news that came from News 0404, about the hate crimes, swastikas and, among other things, the "Hitler was [sic] right" inscription in his city - a city in Israel.

[cooper-2013-100] 100.0 ^100.1 A. Cooper, H. Brackman, "When your neighbor unfurls a Nazi flag," JPost, June 2, 2013.

Palestinians must liberate themselves from their infatuation with the swastika and the dream of a Judenrein Palestine.
Israelis live in a tough neighborhood on the verge of a complete meltdown. Most would very much like to reach a final peace deal with their Palestinian neighbors, but as the Jewish state is one-20th the size of California, there is literally no margin of error. The core issue is as much psychological as it is territorial. Do my neighbors want peace? Here is one answer, hoisted above the town of Beit Umar, adjacent to the Jewish communities of Gush Etzion: An oversized Nazi flag fluttering next to a local mosque.
A Jewish neighbor put it this way: “I felt we were going back 75 years, losing our hold on the land. The Arabs no longer feel the need to hide their murderous tendencies, announcing out loud that they wish to annihilate us.”...
The Nazi swastika: The ultimate symbol of hate and genocide. Illegal in Germany. Its use considered an actionable act of hate in most democracies. When young American neo-Nazis march with Nazi flags in Skokie, Illinois, people of all faiths rallied to back their Jewish neighbors.
But not in the Holy Land, where too many Palestinians continue to play the Nazi card over and over again in some creatively destructive ways in the media, mosques and madrassas.
Among the themes: • “Six Million” is a hoax or gross exaggeration.
• Israelis are today’s Nazis, their crimes worse that Hitler’s.
• We are sorry Hitler didn’t finish the job, but we will...
All this has been woven into a Palestinian pseudo-historical narrative, in which King David and both Solomon’s Temple and the Second Temple never existed.
The Palestinian paper Al-Hayat Al-Jadida informed its readers, “members of the Jewish religion must awaken from the coma of historical distortion” because it was “the Zionist movement and world capitalists... who wheel and deal in the Nazi and Fascist slaughter of Jews during WWII.”
Furthermore, Israelis were admonished that “what they are doing in Palestine against the Palestinian Arab people is more dangerous and criminal than what Hitler’s Holocaust brought on the Jews and the nations of the world of the 1940s.”
Today, Arab and Muslim media, bookstores, and the Internet are rife with admiring references to Hitler’s Third Reich. The sad historical truth is that Hitler found a key ally in the Holy Land: the grand mufti of Jerusalem, Muhammad Amin al-Husseini. Glorified by the German press as “the fuhrer of the Middle East” when he visited Berlin in 1941, the grand mufti organized a Muslim SS Battalion that slaughtered 90 percent of Bosnia’s Jews and made broadcasts to the Middle East urging Muslims to honor Allah by implementing their own Final Solution.
Yasser Arafat, the founder of the PLO, was the grand mufti’s ... admirer.
Today, the Palestinian Authority, which controls the West Bank, and Hamas, which controls Gaza, are locked in a struggle for control of Palestinians’ destiny. They agree on precious little, but gleefully play their Nazi cards. PA President Mahmoud Abbas completed his doctoral dissertation in Russia, defended it at the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and published it in 1984 under the title, The Other Side: the Secret Relationship Between Nazism and Zionism.
Claiming that six million Jewish deaths at the hands of the Nazis is “a gross exaggeration,” the book also argued that Zionists collaborated with Nazis in planning the Holocaust. Though he has since admitted that six million Jews were murdered by the Nazis, the themes of Abbas’ book resonate throughout the PA’s educational and propaganda apparatuses, and according to the Center for Near East Policy Research Center “is the basis for Holocaust studies in the PA.”
Hamas’ claims to Hitler bona fides are not inconsiderable.
Hamas is an offshoot of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, founded in 1928 by schoolteacher Hassan al-Banna, who modeled his organization on both Mussolini’s sqaudristi and Hitler’s brownshirts.
Hamas’ founder, Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, a disciple of Banna and admirer of Hitler, was also inspired by “the brigand sheikh” ’Izz al-Din al-Kassam whose followers killed Jews during the 1936-1939 Palestine Uprising and then joined the grand mufti in providing the Nazis with Middle Eastern operatives during World War II.
Regarding Hamas’ 1988 founding charter, which relies heavily in the notorious Protocols of the Elders of Zion, historian Robert Wistrich concludes that it “could have been written by a committee of experts composed of Adolf Hitler, Joseph Goebbels, Henry Ford and a bevy of French, Austrian, Polish or Russian anti-Semites.”

Advisor to PA leader Abbas, Mahmoud Al-Habbash honored the passing of the former Mufti of Jerusalem Amin al-Husseini.

[109] Chuck Morse, "The Nazism Of Abu Mazen," JP, May 21, 2003.
Haj Amin al-Husseini, the grand mufti of Jerusalem, is often referred to as the founder of the so-called Palestinian national movement. The mufti spent World War II in Berlin where he was the prime minister of a Nazi-Muslim government in exile. Hitler greeted the mufti as a head of state and promised him that after he won the war in Europe he would conquer the Arab world and solve the Jewish problem in Palestine. Photos and testimony have the mufti touring the death camps and letters exist of the mufti imploring Nazi’s and pro-Nazi heads of state to exterminate their Jews.
The PLO maintained long and well-documented ties with Nazi and neo-Nazi organizations. Since the advent of Oslo, the PLO, now the Palestinian Authority, has downplayed its Nazi orientation so as to fool the useful idiots on the American and Israeli Jewish left.
Nevertheless, in August of 1995, when the Israeli and Western-financed and armed Palestinian Authority police force finished its training, the graduates were sworn in with the Nazi salute. The commander of Force 17, which serves as Yasir Arafat’s personal praetorian guard and which has been linked to some of the worst atrocities against Israeli Jews in the present intifada is Fawsi Salim el Mahdi – better known by his nom de guerre “Abu Hitler.” El Mahdi acquired the nickname after naming his two sons Eichmann and Hitler.

Abbas' advisor praises Nazi collaborator as "role model" - former Mufti of Palestine Haj Amin Al-Husseini
... on the anniversary of his death, Abbas' advisor posted Al-Husseini's photo and praised him as a "role model"..
But Al-Habbash's praise is not an isolated example. The PA has named at least one school [14] after the Nazi collaborator - the Amin Al-Husseini Elementary School in El-Bireh, the current PA Mufti has honored his predecessor by laying a wreath on his grave [15], and the PA National Security Forces have highlighted Al-Husseini on Facebook [16].

One might ask why use the Nazi swastika that proves the Holocaust did exist while at the same time denying the Holocaust ever happened. Here, anti-Semitism's rhetorical grounding is front and center; seeking to deprive Israel of the Holocaust often understood in the Islamic world as justification for its creation but also, and relatedly, seeking to take away the Holocaust cover under which the Arab world sees Israel fighting its wars of defense and survival...
The objective of associating Israel with Nazism is also motivated by the historical development that early Muslim supporters of Nazi Germany in the Middle East did not anticipate when they were first attracted to Nazi ideology in the 1930s. That things did not develop as planned, and that Nazi Germany became synonymous with evil has not helped the Islamic world and thus what better way to distance oneself from an evil than to attach it to one's enemy, especially when evidence exists that Haj Amin Al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, not only supported Hitler's “final solution” but also organized Muslim SS troops in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

On the occasion of the hunger strike of prisoner al-'Dhanfar (Ghadanfar) Abu Atwan, who is being held in an Israeli prison, the PA's official newspaper decided to dedicate a flattering article to his family.
According to the article, the prisoner's grandfather was a terrorist who was arrested and later deported. The grandfather decided to name his son Eichmann after and as a sign of identification with the Nazi tyrant Adolf Eichmann, the architect of the "Final Solution" who was executed at the time.
The Palestinian Eichmann continued his father's path, and was arrested and imprisoned for his involvement in terrorism.
Today, the son of the Palestinian Eichmann is also behind bars... Eichmann went the same way, and was arrested in 1989 ...
Eichmann came out of prison and gave birth to Al-Achenfer, who continued on the same path of struggle. It is worth noting that he is the nephew of the prisoner Manif Abu Atwan, a prisoner sentenced to five life sentences ... "

Four months after the renovation of the tomb complex in Nablus and the arrangement of the entrances to the place, the 500 worshipers who went up to the tomb last night were shocked to discover that it was badly damaged - again.
Swastikas, smashing of part of the tombstone and military shoe prints in concrete - this is how Jewish worshipers found Joseph's tomb in Nablus tonight (Thursday). "Woe to a nation that allows space in this way, time and time again, unhindered, its symbols and its most sacred places," says the head of the Samaria Council, Gershon Mesika, who was among the worshipers.
Since the evacuation of Joseph's Tomb in October 2000, the tomb complex has been abandoned most of the time, vandalized and burned, with occasional groups of Jewish worshipers entering it. For long periods, the IDF completely blocked access to the site due to security warnings, but last December the tomb was renovated, and recently worshipers' visits have been held regularly, accompanied by heavy IDF security and only at night - once every few weeks.
[Military shoe prints on the grave (courtesy of the People and Land Rescue Headquarters)]
The group that entered Nablus tonight, on the occasion of Rosh Chodesh Iyar and Independence Day, had about 500 worshipers. When they reached the tomb, they discovered that it had been badly desecrated by the townspeople. Just one day after Holocaust Remembrance Day, worshipers and soldiers were shocked to find inscriptions of swastikas next to the tomb, as well as inscriptions of a sword raised on a Star of David, with drops of blood and a boot "stepped on" it, and other inscriptions.
The tomb, according to the worshipers, was also badly desecrated. Throughout the tombstone, there are signs of military footprints - according to them, of Palestinian police. In two places, the tombstone was smashed and damaged.
"Palestinian police terrorists lose humanity"
"Only barbarians can do such terrible things," Mesika said this morning. "People who are so pathologically capable of desecrating such a sacred place ... Palestinian police terrorists have long since lost every humanity. The State of Israel must return to Joseph's tomb, as even under the Oslo Accords the threats should be."
... Yossi Dagan of the Chomesh First organization, who was also present at the scene, added: "Everywhere else in the country, if Jews had done a tenth of the horror to the grave of an Arab sheikh, or even thought of doing so, the whole world would have been shocked..."

[ri-2014-115] 115.0 ^115.1 Raphael Israeli, "War, Peace and Terror in the Middle East," Taylor & Francis, 2014, p. 205.

One day of January 2001, at the height of the second Palestinian Intifada (2000-2003), the Israeli press carried the picture of a procession in Ramallah, which paraded a donkey wearing a Jewish prayer shawl and sporting on its forehead a Star of David in the shape of a swastika, with Palestinian police standing by and applauding the parade. The Israeli public was deeply shaken, regarding this act of profanation and abuse as a continuation of the torching of the Jewish synagogue in Jericho and Joseph's Tomb in Nablus during the initial stages of the current upheaval. In all those cases, what transpired was a Palestinian determination, born out of frustration and hatred, to take revenge on Jewish religious symbols, knowing full well the hurt and anguish they would cause among the Israeli public.
The angered and disappointed readership of the papers was reminded that, when in 1997 a settler from Hebron heldup a poster in public in which the .. Muhammad was reviled by the drawing of a pig in his proximity, she was arrested, tried for anti-religious incitement and incarcerated for three years. That event, which rightly caused Muslim outrage, was condemned across the board by Israeli politicians and clerics, who understood the sensitivity of such provocations. Israelis had therefore expected to see a similar reaction on the part of the Palestinian authorities and their religious hierarchies, but in vain.
This phenomenon of poking the Jew in the eye in order to demean him by diminishing his national and religious symbols, has been repeatedly manifested...

Overview
On August 14, 2021, Palestinians from the village of Bayta held a demonstration near the outpost of Eviatar in Samaria. The outpost was evacuated in July 2021, but as part of the agreement with the Israeli government, the land is still controlled by the IDF, an issue which is currently being examined by the Civilian Authority. During they demonstration they ignited rags soaked in kerosene forming a swastika inside a Magen David.
It was a display planed in advance by the Palestinians, who prepared it, brought it to the location of the demonstration and set it on fire, part of the night harassment units’ activities to protest the establishment of the outpost. The Palestinian Authority (PA) and Fatah support such demonstrations and always deliberately ignored such displays. Videos of the display and the demonstrators, including children, holding torches, were uploaded to the social networks and broadcast by Hamas’ al-Quds TV.
On September 25, 2021, Israeli soldiers uploaded a video to the social networks showing a Nazi flag hanging from the power lines on the outskirts of the Palestinian village of Bayt Umar, near Hebron. Several hours later an IDF force arrived and shot the flag down. A Nazi flag was also flown in Bayt Umar in July 2014
[Right: Nazi swastika flag in Bayt Umar (social networks, September 25, 2021). Left: Nazi swastika flag on the outskirts of Bayt Umar (picture by Avraham Weiss for Tazpit News Agency, July 6, 2014).]
On October 22, 2021, swastikas were painted on a roadblock on the Hawwara road, south of Nablus (Twitter account of Zvi Sukkot, October 22, 2021).

On June 29, 2021, a Palestinian child attending a Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) military training camp (the Palestinian version of summer camp) in the Gaza Strip was interviewed for the organization’s al-Quds al-Yawm TV station. To the Jews he said, “We asked Hitler why he left some of you alive. He did it to show how wicked you are. We will come for you from under the ground to spread terror in your hearts and above the ground we will mangle your bodies with our rockets. Go run to your shelters, you mice, you sons of Jewish women.

Notes on the Palestine Situation An Arab View of Mr. Truman.
At a conference for the foreign press Sayyid Ahmad Shukeiri, Director of the Jerusalem Arab Office, commenting on President Truman's last letter to Mr. Atlee with regard to Jewish immigration to Palestine, said: "I regard President Truman's repeated declarations in favor of Zionism as a sign of the decline of American democracy. Capitalistic tyranny and angling for the vote of the five million Jews are the direct cause of this... I would have thought that this latest declaration was made by one of the great Nazi leaders who had escaped prosecution at Nuremberg..."

... whereas in the eyes of the Arabs in the Land of Israel and in the surrounding countries, the Partition was a bitter failure. For them, handing over only half of Palestine to Arab hands is the same as handing over the entire country to Jews. 'Abd al-Rahman Azzam Pasha, the general secretary of the Arab League - who only four days earlier had warned the assembly that the path of partition would lead only to blood and fire" - now angrily led his delegation out of the hall. The fort was cast. Instead of sharing their biblical legacy, Jews and Arabs will be forced to fight for it. Jews and Arabs fight for it. The war began five hours after the vote. The Arab of the generation in his clothes waved to a bus on its way from the small coastal city of Netanya to Jerusalem. When the bus slowed down, the Arab pulled a submachine gun under his coat and started firing, and was soon joined by other Arabs, who were lying in ambush on the side of the road. Five Jewish passengers - two men and three women - were killed. Half an hour later, the Arab gang attacked another bus and murdered two more Jews.
On the same day, the Palestinian Arab Higher Committee declared a three-day general protest strike. Mass demonstrations by Arabs broke out across the country. In a circular distributed to British soldiers and police, the (Arab) committee demanded that they refrain from intervening. "The Arabs have taken the final solution to the Jewish problem," the leaflet said, "they will soon evacuate you. Your sisters, wives, loved ones and families are waiting for you. You have nothing in the Arab War. Why will you die?" The British soldiers seized the matter, and kept their distance when masses of Arabs surrounded the commercial district of Jerusalem on December 2 and set it on fire, an event that resulted in the death of one Jew and the injury of twenty.
Violence spread rapidly throughout the country, penetrating even within the prison walls, where Arab prisoners rioted and attacked Jewish detainees.
The overt reference to a "final solution" - Hitler's code name for the extermination of European Jews - was not accidental. Haj Amin al-Husseini, the great and charismatic Mufti of Jerusalem and head of the Palestinian Arab Higher Committee, who spent most of World War II in Berlin, broadcasted Nazi propaganda to the Middle East. Now, in Cairo, he has declared jihad for the liberation of Palestine.
His "rescue army" included two units of about a thousand fighters. One operated in the Jerusalem area under the leadership of his cousin, 'Abd al-Qader al-Husseini. The other, under the command of Hassan Salameh, who was trained in Germany, was located in the area between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. In addition to these, the Mufti, the supreme religious leader of the Palestinian Arabs, called for the recruitment of every Arab city and village into its ranks.

באותו יום הכריז הוועד העליון של ערביי פלשתינה על שביתת מחאה כללית בת שלושה ימים. הפגנות המוניות של ערבים פרצו בכל הארץ. בחוזר שחולק לחיילים ולשוטרים בריטים, דרש מהם הוועד להימנע מהתערבות.

האלימות התפשטה במהירות בכל רחבי הארץ, וחדרה אפילו בינות לחומות בתי הסוהר, שם התפרעו אסירים ערבים ותקפו עצורים יהודים. ההתייחסות הגלויה ל"פתרון סופי" - שֵׁם הקוד של היטלר לחיסול יהודי אירופה - לא היתה מקרית. חאג' אמין אל חוסייני, המופתי הגדול והכריזמטי של ירושלים וראש ועד ערביי פלשתינה, שהה רוב מלחמת העולם השנייה בברלין, משדר תעמולה נאצית למזרח התיכון. כעת, בקהיר, הכריז על ג'יהאד לשחרור פלשתינה.
צבא ההצלה שלו כלל שתי יחידות בנות כאלף לוחמים. האחת פעלה באזור ירושלים בהנהגת בן דודו, עבד אל־קאדר אל-חוסייני. האחרת, בפיקודו של חסן סלאמה, שהוכשר בגרמניה, התמקמה במרחב שבין תל אביב לירושלים. נוסף על אלו, קרא המופתי, המנהיג הדתי העליון של ערביי פלשתינה לגייס כל עיר וכפר ערביים לשורותיו.

At 5:40 a.m., Arabs were reported ascending from Wadi Joz to the road, and in the early morning hours an Arab shooting attack began on a Nashashibi house from the buildings and courtyards next to it. It was a counterattack initiated by Hajat Abu Gharbiya, commander of the Bab al-Zahara neighborhood. An Arab squad placed a machine gun in a window of a roof room in a building opposite Beit Nashashibi and opened fire, until one of its men was hit by Palmach gunfire. The Arab shooting caused more casualties among the Palmach members. As a result, Zivi ordered Amitai's class and the sabotage squad to seize the building south of Nashashibi's house and blow it up so that it would not block the field of vision to the south.
A search revealed that the building's occupants had hastily abandoned it, and a German flag with a black swastika in the center was found. The discovery of the flag shocked the Palmach and aroused the suspicion among them that Germans were among the Arab fighters of the neighborhood. The building was blown up and collapsed to the ground and a field of vision was created that made it possible to view the entire Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood. When Amitai returned with his class and the saboteurs, it became clear to him that Zivi was wounded in the abdomen.
Since most of the company commanders were wounded, Zivi appointed platoon commander Uri Amitai as his successor. In the meantime, he coordinated and organized the evacuation of the wounded with the battalion headquarters.
The dead and ten wounded were taken by ambulance to Hadassah Hospital on Mount Scopus. The ambulances brought food, water and ammunition to the force that remained in the Nashashibi house, which now numbered about 70-60 fighters. The stories of the wounded, who were in a good mood and confident in the results of the battle, aroused in some of the people of Hadassah an optimistic feeling that the end of the siege on Mount Scopus was near.

We entered the empty mosque. The mosque was built on the remains of an ancient wall of a Hebrew synagogue. In one room next to the mosque we saw a shocking painting: an Arab battle plane with a swastika on its wings bombing a Hebrew Magen David Adom ambulance, and the wounds of the passengers bleeding: in front of the ambulance and behind it two Arab armored vehicles with large swastikas. Lethal fire was fired at the ambulance from the Arab plane.
And here my right foot came across a metal thing stuck in the clay floor. And how great was my surprise when I lowered the clay over it and I saw wonderfully delicate and beautiful developments, in semicircles and different sizes, in the string of semicircles I saw three similar cuts to ancient Torah scroll patterns. A shiver went through my flesh. They are an ancient menorah. Alongside the menorah were two protruding handles for the missing jugs of oil. . I pressed the menorah to my heart, and continued to look for the rest of its parts in the immediate vicinity. Unfortunately I did not find more than that. When I returned home I continued to clean the menorah.

[128] Anti-Jewish Activities of the Arabs in Argentine, Daia, April 1958.

The Arab League... under the disguise of other names, or by fronting through other Arab or Argentine bodies, it is intensely active. Its representative until lately was Issa Nakhle, who, inter alia, published under his editorship the journal "America y Oriente", starting from November 20, 1952, until he left the country in 1956. "AMERICA Y ORIENTE" was a very efficient arm of the Arab propaganda, and reached wide circulation among the leading Peronist circles, antisemitic nationalist groups, nazi elements and university circles. ... "Delegation of the League of Arab States" and of its head, Mr. Issa Nakhle, stressing that by a campaign of instigation to racial and religious hate an attempt is being made to create in the public opinion a feeling contrary to the friendly relations between Argentina and Israel. This poisonous agitation, carried out through'the despatch of letters and pamphlets profusely distri-buted in the streets, propagates vicious slander,appealing to the most primitive instincts and attempts to convince the public of the existence of a "world Jewish plot whose objective is to throw out Christianity from the holy places in Palestine". This propaganda was a direct outgrowth of the one carried out in nazi Germany...
later he was the founder and editor of the journal "America y Oriente", known for its systematical anti-Jewish campaign and its glorification of the totalitarian regimes, particularly of the nazi Germany. In August 1956 Issa Nakhle returned to Argentina, after a prolonged trip to the Soviet Union, this time in his character of head of the "Delegation of the League of Arab States", armed with a diplomatic passport as pleni-potentiary minister of the Syrian government.

[145] The Nazism behind Palestinian murder, ILH, Apr 16, 2015.

The extermination of the Jews and the establishment of the State of Israel are regularly used as fuel for the Palestinians
[Swastika in a demonstration in support of the Palestinians]
During a social reconnaissance Operation Peace for Galilee for a paratrooper force from the 202nd Battalion that entered the PLO headquarters in Beirut. In one of the drawers I found a 'Parabellum' gun. As the son of Holocaust survivors, my heart skipped a beat. The eagle and the swastika were stamped on the pistol. The Nazi killing tool created for me a crushing mental encounter between the nightmares of my father, who lost his family in the Holocaust, and the murderous Palestinian-Islamic ideology that the gun in my hand turned into a blow.
This murderous ideology has been used regularly in the writings and speeches of senior Palestinian Authority officials since then, and is reflected in both the Hamas Charter and the platform of other Islamic organizations and is a platform for Iran and Hezbollah war preparations.
This legacy includes the masterpiece of the extermination of the Jews in Khyber by Muhammad as a role model and as an injunction to exterminate the Jews. Beyond the need to eliminate the buds of Jewish settlement and curb Jewish immigration to Israel, it was the ideological-religious meeting point of the Jerusalem Mufti Haj Amin al-Husseini, a sustainable Palestinian icon, with Nazi German leader Hitler. The Hajj, which founded the "Nazi Scout Movement" as early as 1936, is to this day an exemplary figure of the Palestinian national movement in the national and religious context.
In the years 1944-1941 the Mufti lived in Berlin and served as a close adviser (on salary) to Adolf Eichmann ... Historical reports indicate a conclusion reached, according to which when the Germans conquered Israel, an extermination camp would be built in the Dotan Valley for the Jews of the land and the Islamic lands, and the Mufti would serve as the leader of Palestine after it was conquered (by Rommel).
Courtesy of Memri, every Israeli can see that the extermination of the Jews and Israel and the establishment of "Palestine" on its ruins are regularly used as fuel to incite the Palestinian public. The Jews, after all, as the propagandist Goebbels puts it: the end of a frequent lie that will eventually become a reality. , Demands that Israel "Hashem" settle the "peace-loving refugees" in its territory as part of the "right of return."
Meanwhile, the Arabs and Palestinians are killing each other in the Middle East, as well as in the Gaza Strip and especially in the al-Yarmouk suburb. This high-rise district in Damascus, whose Palestinian residents have long since become Syrians, is not at all like the tents in which millions of real Arab refugees are currently languishing from cold and famine as part of the "Arab Spring."
The Palestinians murdered and betrayed their hosts in Kuwait and Jordan, Syria and Beirut and cannot live with each other in peace even in Gaza and Judea and Samaria. And it is precisely now that the publicist Odeh Bisharath is proposing that, like Jordan, we should receive "as a gesture" Palestinian "refugees" from Syria. Someone here really loves us.
There is a habit among "those who were" to gather at a "Parliament" table and discuss hourly issues. When the memory of the Holocaust is raised as a warning sign in a hostile environment for Jews, the faces of some of the "intellectuals" at the table, who cynically claim that it is the "contempt" of the Holocaust and manipulative, anachronistic, emotional to the point of collapse, become obsolete. While some try to forget the Holocaust of the Jews, the Palestinians deny the Holocaust and try to make fun of us in the "Nakba" narrative. As for myself, the feeling of "Parabellum" will remain in my hands forever.

While no debates and no pledging conferences were organized by the UN for Jewish refugees , the mandate for UNRWA was extended decades ... donating $ 60- $ 100 million a year, to prevent the radicalization of the refugees when, in fact, the camps were the breeding ground for PLO terror. The Associated Oress reported already on June 18, 1979 that PLO terrorists controlled...
During Israel's 1982 strike against the PLO in Lebanon , the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) revealed that UNRWA schools were used as terrorist bases and that shelters and schools were used as arms depots . The IDF also discovered a training school for Fatah terrorists in Lebanon located in a vocational training school run by UNRWA at Siblin. At the Siblin Vocational Training Center situated on a mountaintop several kilometers north of Sidon, the IDF found rocket-propelled grenade launchers and missiles, Kalashnikov assault rifles, anti - tank and anti-aircraft missile launchers, hand grenades, abd an assortment of other weapons and explosives.
The center featured a modern audio-visual language laboratory to help students assigned to terrorist activities to work in different parts of the world.
The student dormitory was found strewn with military uniforms. In one room, a picture of Arafat on the wall was flanked by a large black swastika on a red background. A captured document seemed to show that UNIFIL, the UN peacekeeping forces in southern Lebanon, provided intelligence to the PLO about coming Israeli reprisals.
Information uncovered by the IDF revealed that no student was permitted to graduate from the Siblin Center without graduating first from the Fatah course of study and serving a minimum of twelve months with the PLO. The initial coverup was undertaken by UNRWA's employees. All but 120 of the 17,000 UNRWA staff are Palestinian Arabs. As one staff member put it a few years later. "You might say we're a Palestinian agency under the UN flag."
UNRWA headquarters continued to cover up until the U.S. suspended payments in 1982 and made no new pledge for 1983.
The UN agency finally issued a report which confirmed all the charges. UNRWA's Commissioner-General Olof Rydbeck, the former Swedish ambassador at the UN, later admitted that for some time prior to the disclosure, he had not been permitted to inspect UNRWA camps in southern Lebanon without prior notice to the PLO, and then only with an escort provided by the organization...

During the existence of the Palestinian Authority, the systematic desecration of holy places for Jews, especially tombs, became routine. This occurred mainly in places near Arab neighborhoods or localities. Swastikas were painted on the tombstones, abusive slogans and nationalist inscriptions were written, PLO flags were hoisted and even tombstones smashed. At the end of September 1996, these places were attacked with live fire. At Yosef's [Joseph's] tomb, about 5,000 Palestinian demonstrators and about 150 Palestinian police officers attacked a handful of IDF soldiers.
The soldiers fortified themselves in the tombs room itself after they transferred to him the Torah scrolls that were in the hall of the Beit Midrash. The Palestinians climbed the fences of the compound. They destroyed the large yeshiva building that stood in his yard and burned it down. Thousands of holy books that were in the place caught fire. The furniture was also damaged...

Extensive research on incitement in the PA media reveals a harsh reality: the Jews are portrayed as hopeless traitors, the source of all the wars and evil in the world, and the inevitable solution - their destruction. "The Holocaust is understandable - in light of the behavior of the Jews in Europe; Balfour and Hitler had the same goal - to eliminate them." Minister Sharansky: Despite expectations from Abu Mazen, incitement broadcasts continue, Jews are portrayed as subhuman... Another example, from the Palestinian daily Al-Hayat al-Jadida from 1998, presents Zionism as a European defense program designed to get rid of the presence of Jews in Europe. According to the researchers, this historical "fact" is part of the official curriculum in the PA.
The section from the newspaper compares Hitler to Balfour: "The difference between the two was simple: the first (Hitler) had no colonies to send the Jews to, so he destroyed them, while Balfour made Palestine one of his colonies and sent the Jews there. Balfour is Hitler of the colonies, while Hitler is Balfour without colonies. Both wanted to get rid of the Jews ... Zionism was critical to defending the interests of the West in the region, while Europe got rid of its Jewish burden."

A resident of Har Bracha pulled the damaged flag and an explosion crushed his hand. A resident of Har Bracha pulled the damaged flag and an explosion shattered his hand. The pulling of the national--flag on which a swastika was painted--by Simcha Water (Votter) detonated an explosive device near the place where Yaakov Pereg and Arthur Herstig were murdered about six months ago. By Eitan Levin A trapped explosive device hidden under the national flag, on which a swastika was painted, exploded yesterday morning on the slopes of the settlement of Har Bracha in Samaria, when a resident of the settlement sought to remove the flag. The force of the explosion severely injured his hand, Simcha Votter's. He was taken to Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva, where doctors worked for hours to save his hand and restore torn blood vessels. After the surgery, Votter was taken to the intensive care unit, connected to the respirator and his condition was defined as moderate. The security forces' drive to the scene of the blast revealed that the explosive device consisted of a metal pipe containing a small amount of explosives and a retention mechanism. The cargo holders sought to attract the attention of passengers on Har Bracha Road. They placed the charge on the ground near the curb. The cargo was hidden with a large flag of the State of Israel on which they painted a swastika. The flag was nailed to a rock near the side of the road.
At 5.30, two of the residents, Yonatan Bahir and Simcha Water, left Bracha. They noticed a flag, about 1,500 meters from the entrance to the settlement. The two stopped their car. Simcha Water approached the flag and began tearing it hard from the rock. Apparently, the traction force triggered the delay mechanism that caused the charge to explode. Due to the force of the explosion, Votter was seriously injured in the hand and shrapnel was hit in the abdomen. Dr. Eliyahu Wilonsky, the hospital's deputy director, said that Water suffered a crushed wound and a rupture of blood vessels in the forearm area and that there was a serious danger to the entire arm. During the operation, vessels were restored. The blood and its condition stabilized. The explosion occurred near the place where they were murdered about six months ago, a resident of the locality, Yaakov Pereg, land Inspector of Har Bracha and the reserve soldier, Arthur Herstig from Petah Tikva.

On September 18, Al-Manar television based in Beirut broadcast a news item that subsequently appeared on its English-language website...
Protocols of the Elders of Zion", an anti-semitic forgery originating in 19th-century tsarist Russia that invented a secret cabal of Jews plotting to take over the world.
The "Protocols" are enshrined in the Charter of the Palestinian organisation Hamas: "After Palestine, the Zionists aspire to expand from the Nile to the Euphrates," it says. "When they will have digested the region they overtook, they will aspire to further expansion, and so on. Their plan is embodied in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, and their present conduct is the best proof of what we are saying." An Arabic translation of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf is being distributed by Al-Shurouq, a Ramallah-based book distributor, to East Jerusalem and territories controlled by the Palestinian Authority. According to an Agence France Presse report on September 8, the book, previously banned by Israel, had been allowed by the PA and was sixth on the Palestinian bestseller list.
The PA, with EU funding, has been updating schoolbooks that had not been replaced since the time of Jordanian rule. Most of the anti-semitic stereotyping and incitement against Israel has gone, but last year Israel and the PA met in Cyprus to discuss how the Holocaust against the Jews should be represented. Dr Musa Al-Zu'but, chairman of the Palestinian Legislative Council education committee, writing in the PA newspaper Al-Risala on April 13, 2000, said: "There will be no such attempt to include the history of the Holocaust in the Palestinian curriculum ... The Holocaust has been exaggerated in order to present the Jews as victims of a great crime, to justify [the claim] that Palestine is necessary as a homeland for them, and to give them the right to demand compensation."

In a large mosque in Hebron, the preacher asked: "What does Allah want from us, why did he bring millions of infidel Jews to Palestine, give them a state, give them weapons and power...
When I see the parade of suicide bombers who are ready to explode so that Jewish infidels will also go with them and then I hear in the mourning arbor their parents say they will be happy if their children follow the martyrs, I ask: And they keep coming?
And he replied: "Allah loves us and helps us. Fifty years ago there was a great leader [sic] who wanted to eliminate the problem of the Jews, but failed due to the fact that the Jews were scattered all over the world. Allah, who loves us, brings everyone together in Palestine, to make our work easier."

Question: What are the important events and meetings in your life that have left the greatest impression in your memory?
Answer: The first was the Hitler event. I met this man in Jerusalem in one of the Turkish army camps, and the friendship between us became very close. At that time I was a sergeant, while Hitler was a simple private. Relations between us became even tighter when Turkey entered the war alongside Germany. The second event was when I participated [alongside the Nazi army] in entering and conquering France. I was in charge of the cannon that shelled Paris, which had a great influence on the fall of the French capital and its conquest without considerable resistance. "Hitler congratulated me on this shelling and its aftermath ... As an artillery officer, I took part in many operations against the British and against France, until the end of World War II."

Destruction all over - it looked like Sodom and Gomorrah.

They took expensive equipment worth thousands of shekels. The worshiper went by foot to the police and called them to come, which they did... He told me about it on Saturday night, and I called Rabbi Yashar, the rabbi of Akko. He came and cried out, 'What is this, Nazi Germany here?'... Shushan said that in his 30 years in the city, he had "never experienced an Arab pogrom like this one... I don't know what's going on here."

Swastikas were scrawled on ruins of one of Israel’s oldest synagogues...
A group of Jews, in a rare visit to the ruins of an ancient synagogue in an Arab village southwest of Hevron, was shocked to discover swastikas scrawled on the walls by Arabs. Israel National News learned that the discovery was made last Friday morning...
The ruins of the ancient synagogue are in Samoa, a village located in the southern Hevron Hills between Hevron and Be’er Sheva. Samoa’s Arabs have been involved in terrorist attacks against Israel since before the 1967 Six-Day War, and army-escorted public tours to the ruins are rare, the last one having been organized eight years ago.
The ruins were first discovered in 1934. The synagogue dates back to the fourth century, and Jews apparently abandoned it in the eighth century, during the beginning of Muslim rule. Muslims have built a mosque adjacent to the ruins... The synagogue that existed in ancient Samoa is significantly larger than the more widely-known ancient synagogue in nearby Susiya, he added.

Worshippers, soldiers rush to erase Nazi symbols found at holy site. 'Only barbarians could do such a thing,' says Shomron Regional Council head.
Unknown assailants have scrawled graffiti, including swastikas, on the walks of Joseph's Tomb in Nablus. Soldiers and worshippers arriving at the holy site on Wednesday night, exactly one year after the completion of its renovation, rushed to erase the graffiti.
Shomron Regional Council head Gershon Mesika placed responsibility on the "Palestinian police terrorists."
Some 1,500 people visited Joseph's Tomb in a special prayer organized by the Shomron Regional Council and the Shechem Echad organization in coordination with the security forces, ahead of Yom Kippur.
When the first soldiers and worshippers arrived at the site, they immediately painted the graffiti in white and the prayer began..
Mesika added, "The Palestinian police terrorists, who tell the media that they are allegedly guarding the gravesite when IDF forces are not around, have lost all humanity a long time ago.
"These are the same terrorists in uniform who murdered Ben Yosef Livnat, may God avenge his blood, and have now allowed the decoration of the Joseph's Tomb compound with graffiti of Nazi symbols." ...
Israel's Chief Rabbis Yona Metzger and Shlomo Amar expressed their shock and disgust over the damage caused to the holy tomb. "It's unthinkable that the holiest sites serve as a target of revenge between religions," they said in a statement.
The two called on all religious clerics to strongly condemn the incident and "instill in their followers feelings of respect for the values sacred to members of other religions."

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also referred to documentation from the university at the cabinet meeting held yesterday, saying: "It is particularly disturbing that these days we are witnessing phenomena in the Palestinian Authority and swastikas. This is a direct result of the continued wild incitement against the State of Israel.
To nrg Maariv it was learned that Netanyahu's remarks followed a review presented to him in recent days by the Ministry of Strategic Affairs, which regularly monitors the incitement index in the PA. The latest review clearly showed a trend of using Nazi symbols, including at Al Quds University in Jerusalem - an institution that considers itself enlightened and pro-Western.
... University students were photographed saluting as they stepped on the Israeli flag. In addition, what has already become a permanent issue, terrorists who murdered Jews as national heroes were presented, with the maps showing the whole of western Israel as Palestine.
In another case that occurred about three weeks ago, the flag of the Nazi party was hung in the town of Beit Ummar in the southern Hebron hills. IDF forces who arrived at the scene and tried to lower the flag encountered violent opposition, to the satisfaction of the residents who even described the incident on the local Facebook page. Among other things, it was written, "Today, the Knights of the House say hang the Hitler flag on a high-voltage power cord ... Bless you for your efforts."

According to the facts of the indictment, which was filed through attorney Rachel Almkeys, the defendant worked distributing newspapers in the town of Lehavim.
On July 28, during the fighting in Gaza, the newspaper department engraved, with a stone, signs of a "swastika" on 11 vehicles parked throughout the settlement, believing that the owners of the vehicles were of Jewish origin.

The graffiti has been spray-painted on the Temple Mount, on the walls, stairs, and floor, over the past few days ... Masked and disorderly riots hired for this purpose by the Islamic Movement of Raed Saleh, and funded by Hamas as revealed by the police.
Tom Nissani, a student at the Hebrew University and a key activist in the "If You Will" movement, was one of the first to ascend the Temple Mount this morning and was exposed to the shocking sight. Nissani said that he saw about 5 such inscriptions spray-painted on the Temple Mount, which have not yet been erased by the Israel Police.
"It's amazing to me to see how an 'invented' [supposed seperate "identity" of a] people who were educated and raised on the knees of Nazism and associated with it publicly dares to compare something, anything, to Nazism." Nissani explains, adding that "in the end this is another symptom of the lack of sovereignty on the Temple Mount."
"So… What minister, president or MK from the left is volunteering to condemn this price tag?" Nissani asks.

The court ruled that the attackers in Jaffa did not act out of nationalist motives, but a brief browse on his Facebook page reveals quite a bit of antisemitic content.
The flipping of the nationalist, racist and anti-Semitic motives was very rapid. Too fast. Because in the story of the two attackers, members of the Garbua family, there is a lot of art and hatred of Jews... From conversations I had with Jewish residents in Jaffa who experienced harassment from their Arab neighbors, it turns out that this is not the first time that one of the brothers, Ahmad Garbua, has harassed someone who he saw as a Jew.... Ahmad Garbua was the one who said, according to his testimony in the interrogation and according to the testimony of R' Eliyahu Mali who was attacked, that "Jews will not be in Jaffa." I do not know, to me it sounds like a distinctly racist and anti-Jewish statement.
A year ago a number of Arabs beat up a yeshiva student who went to solitude on the promenade; A few weeks ago, a Jewish boy filed a complaint with the police against Arab boys who beat him and called him a "J. dog." There is a lot of violence and anti-Semitism in Jaffa, we just do not see it and are certainly less interested in hearing about it. All this until a strictly antisemitic image of two violently beating Jews with a religious appearance explodes in our face.
Jews in Jaffa, mostly religious, experience violence and anti-Semitism every week that includes beatings and harassment. The Israeli police act and stop attackers in case of a complaint, but the atmosphere among the authorities (court, municipality and also the police), quite a few locals tell me, is to sweep under the rug the nationalist and racist issue. When Arab boys beat a yeshiva student just like that on a clear day, it is a "brawl," with no nationalist or racist background, just a local criminal incident. These incidents are not reported or defined, neither by state authorities nor by the media, as hate crimes as is customary in... But everyone knows and understands that the motive is a great hatred for the presence of Jews in these places. But what makes the dance of righteousness and inclusion of the left particularly embarrassing are the publications over the years of Ahmad Garbua in which he is revealed as one who is not ashamed to spread anti-Semitism, hatred of Jews and much to Palestinian art. Not a neighbors' conflict but a national-religious struggle in which it is expressed that the Jews are "the sons of the monkeys and the pigs" and shows great enthusiasm from people like Adolf Hitler, Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein... Garbou also revealed his sincere appreciation to people like Osama bin Laden and Adolf Hitler. "May Allah have mercy on you, you lion," he wrote of bin Laden in 2013...
In 2014 he wrote admiringly of Hitler and also... In another status that year he wrote that he prayed that Allah would have mercy on the soul of the "martyr Hitler". (Ahmad Mohamad Garbou, Sep 6, 2014).
A video of admiration for Hitler in the Arabic language he uploaded, censored by YouTube...
accusing Netanyahu of "becoming Hitler", and wrote that "Hitler left people like you so the world can see what Zionism is."

[224] Sara Ha'etzni-Cohen, "Israel's iron fist is anything but", Oct 7, 2021.

The Arab Israelis that attacked Rabbi Mali in Jaffa were known antisemitic nationalists, yet the police prosecutor failed to note the racial motive behind the attack.
R. Eliyahu Mali is a resident of Jaffa and the head of Shirat Moshe Hesder Yeshiv in the city. Around six months ago, he and a colleague were violently assaulted when two Arabs began to kick, curse, and threaten them in broad daylight. In their resourcefulness, Mali's colleague documented the incident, something that resulted in his hospitalization. These were the days leading up to the riots of May 2021, and the images were widely distributed and resulted in a public outcry.
This week, the sense of shock grew following reports of the plea deal reached with the attackers, Ahmed and Mahmoud Garbua. In return for their confession, a ridiculous plea deal was signed that will see them sentenced to between five and nine months of community service. It is absolutely insane that the Israeli Police Prosecution and Tel Aviv Magistrate Court Judge Roy Perry both signed off on this agreement.
The police prosecutor did not even bother to assign a racial motive to the attack, something that would have resulted in more severe punishment. They failed to do this despite the fact that, as they were hitting and kicking and explicitly threatening the victims' lives, they shouted that "Jaffa will not have Jews." One of the attackers has a rich history of posting nationalist and antisemitic content on social media, including praise for Nazi leader Adolf Hitler, videos on "J. dogs and America," and "the truth about the sons of monkeys and pigs." He has also expressed a desire for the liberation of "occupied Jaffa." And that is just the tip of the iceberg. Racial motive? What racial motive?
Israelis are even more frustrated by the plea deal because all the facts are known. We know the Garbua brothers attacked Mali because they are antisemitic nationalists. The Garbua brothers know it too. Everyone knows this and admits as much behind closed doors. It is, however, a little difficult to prove. That is why they opted for the easier solution. Another question that needs to be asked is: Why did they even have to reach such a lenient plea deal in return for the brothers' confession when images of the violence exist in which the attackers' faces can clearly be seen? Everything is documented, and it is clear that they are guilty. Why, then, would you lighten their sentence in return for them confessing the obvious?

Jewish residents of the Old City of Jerusalem were shocked to discover antisemitic graffiti on the walls of raisin houses in the Old City of Jerusalem.
This past weekend, Arabs spray-painted dozens of swastikas on the walls of Jewish compound in the Muslim Quarter of Jerusalem, with Palestinian flags. The focus, as always, is what is known as the 'Triangle Area' near the Shuvu Banim yeshiva, near the Saraya compound. The Nazi graffiti soiled the walls for about half a day, until Jerusalem Municipality employees arrived and erased the disgrace. However, as can be seen in the photos, this is not the first time that Arabs have painted abusive graffiti in those places.

‘I believe the state of Israel may not survive. That its days are numbered. I can hardly bear to say it.’
The great Jewish theologian Emil Fackenheim, whom I met with in Jerusalem while writing a book about Hitler, emphasized one thing above all to me.
Fackenheim emphasized the salience of what has come to be known as the “614th Commandment” (after the 613 of the Orthodox). A post-Holocaust commandment.
The 614th: “Thou shall give to Hitler no posthumous victories.”
And yet Hitler is on the verge of a posthumous victory. I thought of this when I saw one of a number of disgusting Hitler-themed posters that have been showing up at anti-Israel/BDS type rallies the last few years. Demonstrations, of course, that have nothing to do with anti-Semitism; they just happen to attract a lot of pro-Nazi, pro-Hitler people and posters. There was a photo of such a poster in one of the London papers that showed Hitler in uniform with a banner across it reading: "Hitler was [sic] Right."
Hitler was not right. But, in the perspective of history, Hitler is right back.
Doubt it? Take a look at this photo of a store in Gaza that proudly has named itself “Hitler 2” and features giant statues of knife-wielding Palestinian “heroes” standing outside.

First publication: Arabs spray-painted swastikas on a sign near ancient Susya, Hakol has learned.
Residents south of Mount Hebron who discovered that on the sign on the main road of the ancient Susya junction, Arabs spray-painted a number of swastikas, sent documentation of the picture to the Jewish Voice, and a brief inquiry revealed that the swastikas were probably spray-painted on the eve of Yom Kippur. Ancient Susya is a national heritage site and operates a visitor center as well as a cafe.
The ancient Susya site and the illegal Arab outpost of the Nawaja clan next to it are currently at the center of a petition to the High Court.
The Arabs living in the Susiya area and left-wing organizations claim that it is a centuries-old Arab village, but the Regavim movement published aerial photographs showing that the illegal Arab settlement there began only 17 years ago by the Nawaja Mita family. It should be noted that interim orders of the High Court also did not work and the illegal construction in the compound continued, while the Arabs and left-wing organizations mobilize international elements in favor of intervening and pressuring Israel to refrain from harming the village.
It should be noted that this is not the first case in which Arabs spray swastikas on Mount Hebron. About three years ago, Arabs spray-painted swastikas on the ancient synagogue in Samoa. Three months ago, Arabs desecrated the monument in memory of Yossi Shuk HaYad near Beit Hagai.

UN Watch documents more than 100 cases of hateful social media content, calls on Western governments to review funding
More than 100 employees of the UN agency that runs schools and social services for Palestinians have posted anti-Semitic content on social media, with some openly praising Adolf Hitler, a UN Watch report released on Monday shows.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) is tasked with providing aid to Palestinians. It runs schools and a plethora of social services in the West Bank, Gaza and Arab countries neighboring Israel.
In the report, titled “Beyond the Textbooks,” UN Watch highlights 22 recent cases of UNRWA staff inciting violence and spreading anti-Semitic conspiracy theories on social media, thereby violating the agency’s supposed zero-tolerance policy.
UN Watch, an independent, Geneva-based organization, further lists 113 UNRWA educators and staff who have publicly promoted violent or hateful rhetoric in recent years.
The cases include meticulous supporting documentation and stretch back to 2015.
Though it has been made aware of these problematic instances UNRWA has repeatedly failed to act on the matter, UN Watch Director Hillel Neuer told The Media Line.
“The response from UNRWA is inaction and indifference,” he said. “Our question to UNRWA is: Where is your follow-up?
“You know that you have teachers in front of a classroom who praise Hitler,” Neuer continued. “In any other classroom around the world, when it’s exposed that a teacher on social media praised Hitler, they’re fired!”
In one particularly disturbing case documented in detail in the report, an UNRWA math teacher in Gaza named Nahed Sharawi posted a video of Hitler. Accompanying captions show Sharawi endorsing the video and stating that it was chosen to “enrich and enlighten your minds and thoughts.” Shared on Facebook in early 2018, the post has since been removed or made private.

Other educators posted anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, such as Husni Masri, who teaches in the West Bank, in an area under the Palestinian Authority’s control. Masri wrote that Jews control the world, created COVID-19 and seek to destroy Islam.
Another UNRWA math teacher, Fatima Abu Mufreh, shared a post in May 2018 where she called for armed violence against Israel: “After today, nothing should speak other than the missiles of the resistance, the rifles of its jihad warriors, and our tanned forearms,” the post read.

Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan was prevented from bringing picture proving antisemitic nature of UNRWA teachers into General Assembly [24] (photo credit: SPOKESMAN FOR AMBASSADOR GILAD ERDAN)
The corrupt body, whose ill-deserved status as an agency for “refugees” keeps it in financial cover, continues to employ educators who regularly incite terrorism against Jews.
Given the nature and mission of United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), it shouldn’t have come as a surprise that Israeli Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan was prevented on Monday from entering the General Assembly hall with a prop proving the point he intended to make at a meeting about the organization.
The item was a poster illustrating the antisemitic views of an UNRWA school teacher in Gaza by praising Adolf Hitler. Erdan had equipped himself with the placard to refute the statements he knew were going to be made by UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini.
He had good reason to want to come prepared with visual evidence. The corrupt body, whose ill-deserved status as an agency for “refugees” keeps it in financial cover, continues to employ educators who regularly incite terrorism against Jews, both in the classroom and on social media.
This was one key impetus for the decision by the administration of former US president Donald Trump in 2018 to cut America’s entire aid budget to UNRWA. In the first place, the bloated agency has spent the many decades since its inception perpetuating the “refugee crisis,” rather than using its mandate to settle the approximately 600,000 “persons whose normal place of residence was Palestine during the period 1 June 1946 to 15 May 1948, and who lost both home and means of livelihood as a result of the 1948 conflict [Israel’s War of Independence].”
Second, and even more egregiously, it has actively and passively abetted terrorism. Not only does it hire people affiliated with Hamas, but the terrorist group that rules Gaza uses UNRWA schools and other buildings as facilities for the storage of weapons.
.... Lazzarini doesn’t seem to know or care that this is the case. Instead of vowing to root out such evil, he took the opportunity of the meeting in question to say that he’s “proud of UNRWA’s education system and its resources.”
UNRWA, he stated, “uses host country curricula in line with the best practices in refugee education.”
Let that sink in. The head of UNRWA acknowledged that what he’s up to is “refugee education”: encouraging kids born and raised in Judea, Samaria and Gaza – like their parents and even many of their grandparents – to embrace their misery, not extricate themselves from it.
At least he was being honest about that. Nevertheless, he out-and-out lied when he asserted that “UNRWA has a zero-tolerance policy for hate speech, incitement, discrimination, hostility or violence.”
To soften the fabrication, he added, “I am, however, acutely aware that we are operating in a highly divided and emotionally charged environment where zero risk does not exist.”
It was a typical maneuver to make UNRWA sound measured, while excusing its Gaza staff for vile behavior. He promptly corrected the faux “balance,” however, by concluding: “Politically motivated attacks on our education system, and more broadly against the agency, are increasing in frequency and in aggression. Those behind these attacks do not have the well-being of Palestinian refugee children at heart.”
No, he wasn’t joking. He even managed to keep a straight face when he insisted that UNRWA schools teach their pupils about human rights, conflict resolution, tolerance, gender equality and democracy. Hamas and Islamic Jihad operatives must have gotten a kick out of that absurdity.
ERDAN WAS certainly not amused. When it was his turn to address the gathering, he said, “I am shocked, because I brought here with me a photo of an UNRWA teacher’s post glorifying the most horrific mass murderer in history, Adolf Hitler. Unfortunately, shockingly, I was prevented from bringing in this photo in order to share this proof with the other distinguished ambassadors here.”
Bemoaning the “very dangerous precedent” of denying his “freedom of expression” and “hiding the truth from the UN,” he let it rip.
“Hamas has built terror tunnels under UNRWA schools and stored weapons,” he said. “Textbooks used in UNRWA schools have glorified terrorists, called Jews Satan’s helpers and displayed maps that erase Israel. UNRWA is part of the problem, not the solution, and the time has come for the international community to hold it accountable.”
...he told reporters that “the UN isn’t just biased; it also shuts mouths. The UNRWA commissioner-general said here that he was proud of his teachers. I didn’t allow his lies to go without a response. I will continue fighting for our truth.”
... the placard incident came on the heels of another UNRWA attempt at stifling critics. On October 3, UN Watch director Hillel Neuer was cut off in mid-sentence while testifying on this very topic via video conference before the UN Human Rights Council.
“Madame President, is UNRWA supporting peace?” he asked rhetorically, then going on to illustrate why the answer is no.
“Let us consider UN Watch’s recent report on the teachers they hire, by looking at their social media,” he began. “Nahed Sharawi, an UNRWA math teacher in Gaza, posted a video of Adolf Hitler, along with quotes ‘to enrich and enlighten your thoughts and minds.’”
He went on: “Husni Masri, an UNRWA teacher in the West Bank, posted antisemitic conspiracy theories about how Jews control the world, created the coronavirus and seek to destroy Islam.”
Just as he was about to name a certain Esraa Abdal Raheem as a third UNRWA antisemite, UNHRC President Nazhat Shameem suddenly interrupted him.
“I ask the secretariat to pause this video,” she said sternly. “I have noticed that in the course of this video, derogatory, insulting and inflammatory remarks have been made, which in particular refer to specific individuals. This amounts to personal attacks against those individuals, and it is not acceptable in this forum. This statement is out of order, and I give the floor to the next speaker, the Palestinian Return Center, Ltd.”
You honestly cannot make this stuff up.
The libelous rant that ensued – about Palestinians “deprived of their innate human right to water, due to Israeli military blockade and constant Israeli military assaults” – was predictable. After all, members of the UNHRC include China, Pakistan and Nigeria, which are among the world’s worst violators of religious and other freedoms. Spreading disinformation is the least of their sins.
.. The trouble is, as Neuer’s tireless work reveals, that UNRWA doesn’t operate in a vacuum.
On the contrary, it’s one of many dangerous United Nations NGOs that have no legitimate cause for existing, other than to pad their own coffers. UNRWA enjoys the added benefit of perpetuating Palestinian poverty while providing cover for mass murderers bent on annihilating Israel...
The item was a poster illustrating the antisemitic views of an UNRWA school teacher in Gaza by praising Adolf Hitler. Erdan had equipped himself with the placard to refute the statements he knew were going to be made by UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini.

True to the pro-Nazi line that has characterized the Palestinian national movement since its inception, the PA chairman continues to distort history with blatant anti-Semitism
[A whole life of Holocaust denial. Mahmoud Abbas]
There is no novelty in that Mahmoud Abbas was and still is a Holocaust denier. Particularly well-known is his 1982 doctoral dissertation at the Communist University in Moscow, entitled "On the Secret Link between Nazism and the Zionist Leadership," in which he distorts numbers and quotes Holocaust deniers. An important fruit of this work was a book he published on the subject, based on the propaganda writings of Adolf Eichmann. These are the facts.
On his consistent stance, he now added a number of innovations to his speech at the Palestinian National Council conference in Ramallah on Monday this week. In Abbas' words, there are a number of aspects that deserve to be addressed ...

The Palestinian Authority chairman retracted what he said this week in Ramallah, which caused a storm in Israel and around the world: "The Holocaust is the most heinous crime in history."
Palestinian Authority Chairman Abu Mazen apologized to Jews today (Friday), following his antisemitic remarks earlier this week, during a Palestinian National Council meeting that caused a stir and condemnation in Israel and around the world. He said that "I did not mean to offend the Jews, I feel respect for the Jewish religion." He went on to call the Holocaust "the most heinous crime in history."
Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman commented and tweeted on his Twitter account that "Abu Mazen is a poor Holocaust denier, who wrote a doctorate on Holocaust denial and then also published a book on Holocaust denial. This is how he should be treated. His apology is not accepted."
Abu Mazen cited as evidence the words of "three [supposed] Jews", including none other than the Soviet dictator Josef Stalin (who was not Jewish) ... Abu Mazen added, ignoring the blood libel in Damascus in the 19th century and the Farhud riots in Iraq in 1941, that "Jews have lived in Arab countries for years, and for 1,400 years no action was taken against the Jews because they were Jews."

Captured rioter who infiltrated Israel through Gaza border tells IDF interrogators Hamas orchestrated border protests so general public in the strip will not 'turn' on them in light of the dismal humanitarian situation there.
A rioter who was captured by IDF soldiers after breaching the border fence and infiltrating into Israel on Tuesday said Hamas orchestrated the border demonstrations to stay in power.
"Hamas organized the demonstrations so that people would not 'turn' on them," he affirmed, explaining that the humanitarian situation in the strip has gotten so bad that Hamas planned out the March of Return protests to let people blow off steam, and did so in a way that would help their cause.
Their plan, as well as their propaganda, he said, worked.
"Hamas controls everything in the strip. Hamas sends us messages to our Facebook accounts and to our cellphones. They come to mosques handing leaflet saying to go to the fence. When there's electricity, and televisions can be turned on all you can see is the march. People got worn down and bored, and I'm one of those people," he said.
The detainee also seemed to back Israel's assertion that Hamas uses women and children as human shields in the protests.
"They tell women to go forward. They say to the woman: Go ahead, you are a woman, and the Israeli army does not shoot at women. They tell small children: Go ahead, the army does not shoot at small children. They tell a child to go ahead and he goes, it's a little boy. They deceive him," he laments.

Idan said the Israeli-Arab conflict was not based on genuine policy disagreements but “deeply rooted in the belief systems taught in Muslim countries, which are anti-Semitic.” She said this “hatred and intolerance” was “reinforced by biased media,” pointing to coverage last month of fighting between Israel and the Gaza Strip’s Hamas rulers.
“When I watched the news last month, why did they never report that the Hamas terrorist organization fired nearly 700 rockets at Israeli civilians in one weekend or that Hamas used Palestinians in Gaza as human shields,” Idan said.

In a chilling instance of timing, the Jewish World noted Holocaust (Shoah) memorial day this week (see photos of the moving commemorations in Israel here) – just as Holocaust denial and other Nazi-related themes featured prominently in Palestinian incitement against Israel in recent weeks.
A Nazi flag was ‘a star’ of the recent riots on the Gaza border... Palestinians put the flag for all to see next to the border during the riots. Presenting the Nazi swastika ‘sandwiched’ between two Palestinian flags, seems to be a clear statement about the state of current Palestinian hatred towards Israel and the Jews.

 From the way of nature came the struggle for the Land of Israel and instilled a great deal of venom and power in all those elements of Islam that were hostile to Jews and Judaism.  Although it is quite clear that these foundations intensified in the Middle East for many years before the establishment of the State of Israel.  The status of the Jewish minorities in the Arab world, as well as the status of Christians and non-Arab groups, became increasingly intolerable (and unrelated to Zionism) in the face of pan-Arabism, unique nationalism, overt anti-Semitism, and the resurgence of Muslim fanaticism.
-All these trends, which have omitted the ground beneath the feet of the old Jewish communities in Arab countries, drew their power out of a common disgrace to the West and its emancipatory heritage.  For it was not Islam but the hated colonialists who granted equal rights to the Jewish and Christian minorities in the Middle East.  Against this background it is easy to understand why there was Nazism (and especially its anti-Jewish elements) to arouse such enthusiasm and admiration among the Arabs in the 1930s and 1940s.  The words written by Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Mufti of Jerusalem and the leader of the Arabs of Israel, to Adolf Hitler on January 20, 1941, did not in any way contradict the general tone of the Arab nationalism of the period.  "Arab nationalism owes Your Excellency a debt of gratitude and of recognition for having repeatedly [again and again] brought up in ringing speeches the 'question of Palestine.'"

 In fact, the "question of Palestine" was intended only a marginal place in Hitler's policy and German policy until the outbreak of the war, although the Mufti did not err in seeing Hitler and German leaders as 'anti-Zionists', as opposed to the Stalinist, Trotskyist and leftist fabrications.</blockquote>

 <blockquote>From the way of nature came the struggle for the Land of Israel and instilled a great deal of venom and power in all those elements of Islam that were hostile to Jews and Judaism.  Although it is quite clear that these foundations intensified in the Middle East for many years before the establishment of the State of Israel.  The status of the Jewish minorities in the Arab world, as well as the status of Christians and non-Arab groups, became increasingly intolerable (and unrelated to Zionism) in the face of pan-Arabism, unique nationalism, overt anti-Semitism, and the resurgence of Muslim fanaticism.
-All these trends, which have omitted the ground beneath the feet of the old Jewish communities in Arab countries, drew their power out of a common disgrace to the West and its emancipatory heritage.  For it was not Islam but the hated colonialists who granted equal rights to the Jewish and Christian minorities in the Middle East.  Against this background it is easy to understand why there was Nazism (and especially its anti-Jewish elements) to arouse such enthusiasm and admiration among the Arabs in the 1930s and 1940s.  The words written by Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Mufti of Jerusalem and the leader of the Arabs of Israel, to Adolf Hitler on January 20, 1941, did not in any way contradict the general tone of the Arab nationalism of the period.  "Arab nationalism owes Your Excellency a debt of gratitude and of recognition for having repeatedly [again and again] brought up in ringing speeches the 'question of Palestine.'"

 In fact, the "question of Palestine" was intended only a marginal place in Hitler's policy and German policy until the outbreak of the war, although the Mufti did not err in seeing Hitler and German leaders as 'anti-Zionists', as opposed to the Stalinist, Trotskyist and leftist fabrications.</blockquote>

Arab guards, for example, routinely flogged prisoners at “punishment camps” in the Sahara. An Algerian account of brutality at Colomb-Béchar, one of the largest Vichy labor camps, tells the story of one internee  who jumped through a barracks window and escaped into the desert, only to be tracked down “by Arab soldiers on horseback who dragged him back to camp tied to their horses." The captured man was then sent to a particular hellish spot called Hadjerat M'Guil where he was tortured and died eight days later. At Djenien BouRezg, another infamous Vichy concentration camp, the sadistic commandant, Lieutenant Pierre de Ricko, had at his side a team of subordinates that included a pro-fascist Alsatian, a German who moonlighted as head ofa local gang of anti-Semitic hooligans, and an Arab policeman named Ali Guesni. At Djelfa, in the Algerian desert, the commanding officer was an- other sadist, J. Caboche, who liked to strip all the clothes off prisoners and then horsewhip them. Caboche forbade his prisoners to light any fires to keep warm. On especially cold desert nights, Caboche's loyal Arab adjutant—a man known to posterity only as Ahmed—reportedly took particular pleasure in making sure his charges froze. An Arab served as camp overseer of the Dumergue-Fretiha farm labor camp near the northern Tunisian town of Mateur.
