The early Zionists weren’t thinking about Muslims or Islam at all, and so had no idea what kind of reception they could expect from the Muslim Arabs in Palestine. Even today, the roots of jihad violence are only very rarely discussed in Israel.
“CAIR Official Ayman Aishat In Friday Sermon At Harrisburg, PA Mosque: Herzl Plotted To Remove The Quran From Muslims’ Hearts, To Make It Easier To Control Them And Destroy Their Countries; ‘Oh Allah, Grant Us Victory Over Our Enemies, Your Enemies, The Enemies Of Islam… Stand By … The Oppressed Muslims In Palestine… Annihilate Their Enemies, Our Enemies, The Enemies Of Islam, And Those Hostile Towards Islam And Muslims, Wherever They Are; Oh Allah, Liberate Al-Aqsa Mosque From The Plundering Zionist Aggressors,'” MEMRI, January 30, 2024:
In a January 12, 2024 Friday sermon delivered in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, Ayman Aishat, CAIR director of Mosque Engagement said that the Zionists plotted to remove the Quran out of the hearts of the believers. He said that this was decided when Herzl gathered with “his people, the Zionists” in Basel, Switzerland and that they plotted to divide the Muslims and appoint “the worst of their people as leaders.” Aishat said that this has made it easier for Muslim countries to be conquered, destroyed, and controlled. The sermon was streamed live on the Facebook page of the Islamic Center Masjid Al-Sabareen.
Ayman Aishat: “[In the past], we were on Islamic nation, and we are divided into 66 plus [Muslim countries] now. So they were able to control, destroy, steal the resources, the money, oil, animals, gold, mines, and everything, and control the Muslim nation’s countries.
“And even worse, when they gathered in Basel, Switzerland in 1895 [sic], and Herzl gathered with his people, the Zionists, and said: ‘We will take the Quran out of their hearts and put alternatives, divide them, and we will appoint the worst of their people of top of them as leaders.’
“See what happened, we lost Palestine just 53 years after that. And look what is going on in Palestine, Yemen, Iraq, Sudan, Libya, Syria, Kashmir, the Uyghur brothers, the Rohingya…You name it, I can’t name all the Muslim countries that are facing catastrophes, in Somalia…in Libya…It is a much easier job for the enemies of Allah, for the Devil, and the supporters of the Devil, to conquer us, destroy our countries, control us.
[…]
“Oh Allah, grant us victory over our enemies, Your enemies, the enemies of Islam, for they are no match for You. Oh Allah, stand by our family, our brothers, the oppressed Muslims in Palestine. Oh Allah, stand by them in Gaza, and grant them your support. Annihilate their enemies, our enemies, the enemies of Islam, and those who are hostile towards Islam and the Muslims, wherever they are. Oh Allah, liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the plundering Zionist aggressors, and allow us to pray there before we die.”

Shouldn’t have been too hard for anyone, islam doesn’t have a heart.

Those who promote such a distorted view of history – ignoring the ruthlessness of the Ottoman Empire and the result of WW I that caused its dismemberment – along with the conspiracy theory that Jews (Zionists) wanted to ‘destroy’ Islam – should be, in my opinion, deported from the US. I believe in free speech and civil opposition to our government’s policies when they are illegal or unconstitutional – but I do not believe such lies and speech that provokes/supports eventual violence is valid.
I’m concerned that our current immigration system is ‘welcoming’ many more who want to see the destruction of our government, our culture, and our society.

A load of complete bullshit of course, but, if it were true, as far as I’m concerned, anything that makes it easier for barbaric, evil islam to be “conquered, controlled, destroyed” is a wonderful thing. If only islam could be somehow made extinct, this world would be a thousand times better and more civilised and more peaceful. It would be one of the greatest steps forward for the human race ever, in fact, the greatest ever..

When the Israelis set their minds to do something, they usually succeed. Too bad they didn’t do as this lying troublemaker claims. Fewer scummy dross, maybe.
The part about ‘appointing the **worst** of their people as the **leaders**…seems to be true of mozlums, themselves.
How many mozlum clerics are there who get up and lie, lie, and lie even after all of the cows have come home and gone to sleep? How many times has er dog a wan, and the mullahs of iran, and the taliban lied and stirred up more hatred and anger?
How about i. elmi, alias i. omar, and r tlaib, and the scum of the hamas-linked fake ‘civil rights’ org…lying about the phobia that never happens?
the “worst of their people” are on “top as leaders.” Leading the followers right to the deep, dark, abyss.

It is bullshit indeed. Yes, there were instances of political unity in short lived caliphates (similar to the Holy Roman Empire) but there have always been divisions within Islam (Sunni versus Shiite, to give an obvious example) plus ethnic divisions amongst Arabs, Persians, Kurds and others).
Plus, it was “kuffar” countries which largely developed oil extraction and refinement in countries like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, the UAE, Iran,etc., so that the Gulf states could earn money selling it back to kuffars and Muslims alike, and have an economy beyond selling carpets and Tamara (dates) and couscous and camels.
Unfortunately, a good chunk of that money has been spent on promoting Wahabism and terrorism. It’s like if Texas had used oil money to fund the Ku Klux Klan.

CAIR is a terror group. Its officers, its members, its supporters are terrorists straight up. They should be treated as terrorists.
