Hamas, Its Origins, Its Groupies

[1] From Hitler to Hamas (and Hezbollah): Nazi Germany was the incubator for what would become Hamas and Hezbollah.

You can’t understand Hamas without knowing that it’s a fervent local chapter of an organization whose early funding, rituals, and philosophy came directly from Nazi Germany. This essay offers a downloadable chapter (“Islamic Jihadism: The Legacy of Nazi Antisemitism”) from Professor David Patterson’s book, Judaism, Antisemitism, and Holocaust: Making the Connections (Cambridge University Press, 2022). This chapter is the most compact, comprehensive account I’ve found of the historical, organizational, and philosophical connections between 1930s Nazism and contemporary Jihadism. (3/9/25)

[2] The Jew-Movers Are Back: “We put ‘em in the wrong place, so let’s move ‘em again!”

To many, “From the river to the sea,” implies “No Jews in present-day Israel.” How long have “Jew-Movers” been forcibly relocating Jews? How did European and Arab governments force Jews to move to what is now Israel? Where do Jew-Movers imagine Israelis might go? What would happen if Israel’s Jews suddenly left Israel en masse?

Re: "Nazi Germany was the incubator for what would become Hamas and Hezbollah."

Curiously, the incubator for Nazi Germany was Vladimir Lenin, the Bolshevik Party, and the Russian Revolution from 1917 to 1922.

Lenin provided Hitler with the semi-democratic blue print for taking over one political party, then, wiping out all the other competing political parties.

Strategically, the only thing Lenin and Hitler disagreed on was economics.

Lenin was a true Marxist.

Hitler was never a capitalist, but Hitler completely understood that free enterprise produced more wealth, and a higher standard of living, than Communism.

The only difference between Fascism and Communism is that Fascists truly care about their standard of living.

In regard to Nazi homicidal Jew Hatred, that can always be traced directly back to Hitler.

Hitler's vehement hatred of the Jewish people appeared quite suddenly in his writing in the early 1920s. It was a violent obsession that never ended. Just hours before committing suicide, Hitler cursed the Jews in his Last Will and Testament.
