But murderous hatred of dhimmis was present in Iraq long before the Mufti helped incite the Farhud. In 1933, many Iraqi Muslims were very eager to slaughter the Assyrians and rejoiced at the massacre. See at link a quote from the Arab nationalist historian, Majid Khadduri, about this genocidal blood-lust:<br /><br />"Demonstrations, spontaneous or inspired, were taking place almost daily demanding the elimination of the entire Assyrian community."<br /><br />http://ziontruth.blogspot.com/2006/05/before-iraqi-massacre-of-jews.htmlEliyahu m'Tsiyonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07973268399414290195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12677825.post-45652158639699610202011-06-02T21:22:10.078+01:002011-06-02T21:22:10.078+01:00Despite the fear of me being labelled a reductioni...Despite the fear of me being labelled a reductionist, I still think the mufti El Husseini was the main driving force behind the Farhud in Iraq. True, they were also secular elements of the early Bath party pan arabism, but Nazism was there for the praise and emulation. <br /><br />Here is a very nice clip of an Iraqi academic explaining the ABCs of the Farhud to an ignorant Saudi TV commentator, who despite all the explanations still does not believe the role El-Husseini played thus Islam in the calamity that had befallen on Iraqi Jews.<br />The Arabic interview is subtitled in English.<br /> <br />http://www.memritv.org/clip/en/0/0/0/0/112/0/2312.htmSammishnoreply@blogger.com
