No Jews left in Iraq for ISIS to slaughter

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the new leader of the global Caliphate (OR ISIS as it used to be called) has, naturally, called for a new holocaust against Jews via a  graphic posted  on his twitter account : 

“The Real Zionist Holocaust is Predicted in the Hadiths! The Hour [resurrection] will not take place until the Muslims fight the Jews and the Muslims kill them, and the tree will say: “Oh, Muslim, servant of  Allah, there is a Jew behind me, kill him! THE PROMISED Holocaust"

This Anti-Semitic propaganda should come as no surprise as it has been playing an important role in the terrorist group’s recruitment efforts; indeed Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, placed Jews on the side of evil in a speech posted last Tuesday on the Internet in which he called on Muslims to join him, “O ummah of Islam, the world today has been divided into two camps and two trenches … The camp of Islam and faith, and the camp of kufr (disbelief) and hypocrisy … all being led by America and Russia, and being mobilized by the Jews,” al-Baghdadi said.

I bet he is a bit pissed that he can do sod all about this because previous secular & heretical Iraqi governments of 1948 to 1972 already got rid of the Jews of Iraq,  part of The Sephardim or in Israel 'Mizrahi' , because just like the Jews of Syria there are practically no Jews left in either of these countries. In fact hardly any Jews are left in the middle east, outside of Israel. Clearly it is not that secular Arab government beat the fundamentalists to a bit of ethnic cleansing ? Surely not.....

Errr........

Are us Jews the only ones willing to speak out for Middle Eastern Christians ?

Via the Wall Street Journal, Israel's Ambassador to the United Nations,Ron Prosor,  wrote the following piece, which includes : 

The Middle East may be the birthplace of three monotheistic religions, but some Arab nations appear bent on making it the burial ground for one of them. For 2,000 years, Christian communities dotted the region, enriching the Arab world with literature, culture and commerce. At the turn of the 20th century, Christians made up 26% of the Middle East's population. Today, that figure has dwindled to less than 10%. Intolerant and extremist governments are driving away the Christian communities that have lived in the Middle East since their faith was born.

The scene unfolding in the Middle East is ominously familiar. At the end of World War II, almost one million Jews lived in Arab lands. The creation of Israel in 1948 precipitated an invasion of five Arab armies. When they were unable to annihilate the newborn state militarily, Arab leaders launched a campaign of terror and expulsion that decimated their ancient Jewish communities. They succeeded in purging 800,000 Jews from their lands.

Today, Israel, which I represent at the United Nations, is the only country in the Middle East with a growing Christian population. Its Christian community has increased from 34,000 in 1948 to 140,000 today, in large measure because of the freedoms Christians are afforded.

So, sadly, after Arab and Islamic regimes ethnically cleansed their countries of their Jewish populations, they are now turning on their more numerous Christian brethren. It is sad that in the UK, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby,  is more concerned with dealing (or rather NOT dealing)with the consequences of gay marriage than he is his fellow Christians.  It should also be noted that the former Chief Rabbi of the UK, Jonathan Sacks, spoke out about middle eastern Christians a couple of years ago, in a debate in the House of Lords:

Is it now down to us Jews to speak up for Christians, given that their own leadership is impotent and unable to give a voice to their fellows in the middle east?  

UPDATE  : 21/4/2014

When I read this letter attacking Cameron for his sudden pro-Christian 'speeches', even though he has done no such thing,  by the usual suspects regarding whether Britain is a Christian country or not, I was going to write a blog post on it. Until a Christian friend of mine pointed out to me that it is utterly true- Britain is not a Christian country- it is a culturally western, post Christian- pagan country, with a large Islamic minority, which unlike other minorities (including us) is seemingly unable to tackle extremism in its own community and potentially infiltrating schools with extremist Islamic propaganda. People can make their own conclusions about this and consequences.

Fatwa to Mars!

Much to my delight and interest, I read last week that a group of influential Islamic scholars have issued a ruling (Fatwa), regarding space travel in general and colonising Mars in particular. It appears that our friends in the religion of piece have decried the very idea of mankind reaching beyond our small planet and exploring for ourselves the wonder of G-d's created cosmos. No problem! 

Of course one excepts that if us Jews had a hand in colonising the red planet and as Israeli water desalination ,farming,irrigation & taming of the Negev desert shows, we'd make it quickly habitable. 

From this : 

To this : 

Although I cannot help but think if that ever happened, there would a chorus of leftie liberals in one corner and Jew haters in another, claiming that they were all there 'first' and it is really 'their' land which is 'occupied territory' conned by 'cunning Zionists' or whatever their propaganda comes out with, which would, of course, be after all the hard work has been done....
