Documentary filmmaker and activist Michael Moore argued that Israel should be less concerned with their Palestinian neighbors and instead view White Christians as their true enemy.
Many voters in Michigan, particularly Muslim and Arab-Americans, have called on President Biden to establish an immediate cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war. One hundred thousand people from those communities and others marked the "uncommitted" box on their ballots during the Michigan primary, as a warning to Biden that they may stay home on Election Day if he continues his current stance on Israel.

Typical Leftist diversionary tactic. Talk about history when current events require urgent action that Leftists oppose.
The Palestinian Arabs did stop boatloads of Jewish refugees from entering the British Mandate of Transjordan. One destination of Jews fleeing Nazi persecution was British administered Palestine. The Arabs used violence to induce the British to stop the flow.
Looks like Michael Moore never heard of the Grand Mutif of Jerusalem Amin al-Husseini who allied with Hitler, praised him for killng Jews, and helped organize a Waffen SS unit composed of Bosnian Muslims.
Moore seems to have forgotten about or is unaware of the expulsion of Jews from all over the Muslims world after the founding of Israel. Jews lived in those areas for thousands of years.
Michael Moore is the true enemy of the all-you-can-eat buffet.
Hundreds of people may be starving, because of him, at this very moment.
First of all, even if what Moore said was true, events in Spain 300, 400, 500 years ago aren’t terribly relevant in a conflict that is happening in the here and now,.
But ultimately Moore is ignorant and peddles myth. The Spanish Inquisition is overblown. Scholars who have looked seriously at the subject have pretty much concluded that executions by the Spanish Inquisition have been vastly overstated and the Inquisition was no crueler than contemporary courts in England, France etc.

In fact it’s been documented that at various points accused heretics/Muslims/Jews in Spain considered the Inquisition to be more lenient than civil courts, and given the choice, often begged to have their trials at the Inquisition where they perceived their chances of an acquittal and/or light sentence as much better
Those Spanish inquisitors were Hispanics not white...
What a moron.
A large number of White Christians did die rescuing Europe from the Nazis and liberating the concentration camps. Largely White Christian America is the home of the second largest Jewish population in the world. Only Israel has more.
Moore likes to say stupid things in his effort to stay relevant.
Michael Moore and his kind are the true enemy of mankind. Here he is now trying to foster antagonism in the groups that he personally hates, hoping they’ll be at each other’s throats and ignore the enemies of his enemy.
The greatest impact of the inquisition was the banishment of Islam from Spain. Muslims invading Spain and Portugal in the early 700s were, at first, tolerant of Christians and Jews. There was a cohabitation of Muslims, Christians, and Jews. It was when more fundamentalist Muslims came into control, they began to persecute Christians and Jews with brutal beheadings.
Then Isabel and Ferdinand came to the throne and reconquered the Muslim kingdom in Spain. For them, Spain was once again to become a Christian nation. They expected all Muslims and Jews to convert to Christianity or leave Spain forever. The Inquisition continued to hold strong suspicions that many people who converted falsely were practicing old beliefs in secret. These suspicions extended to Muslims as well, who were forced to convert in the early 1500s. The Inquisition would only put you to death if you refused to repent. It was a brutal regime, but so were the Muslims who persecuted Christians and Jews.
Michael Moore never read Genesis. Mo’s people were always going to be hateful toward Jews and Christians alike.
Before Ishmael was born, the angel of the Lord told Hagar, “This son of yours will be a wild man, as untamed as a wild donkey! He will raise his fist against everyone, and everyone will be against him. Yes, he will live in open hostility against all his relatives” (Genesis 16:12, NLT).
I watched that pig spouting off about this yesterday. He acts so sincere that a low-IQ person would believe that what he’s saying is true.
What a fool. The Spanish Inquisition was not long lived and has been over for a long time. Muslims have had an ”Arabic Inquisition” ever since Satan made Mohammed write that book.
People who stir up strife have no business setting public policy.
It could be that Moore is trying to drive division in order to isolate Jews, making nobody an ally of them at all.
The Inquisition had more or less reliable due process.
A true innovation at the time. It had rules, of evidence, of counsel, of appeal, etc.
Theres a reason there were no catastrophic massacres of accused witches or heretics in Spain.

contrast with Spain -
Cholesterol needs to work faster on Moore.
All regimes of the time were brutal by our standards. But Spain probably had the most civilized system of governance and justice in Europe.

The reply was instant and unanimous : " We will never abandon the Law of our Torah and will never change it for another ! " On the spot , six hundred Jewish men were butchered , and their wives and children taken to be sold into slavery
Fortunately most Irish are not like Michael
In the Bible, I forget where, but isn't there a statement something like "blessed are they who help the Jews"?
Every non Muslim should read a true copy to understand what we are facing.
Don't bother with any printed translation since the 1950s or so. They have been altered to make Islam look like a "religion of peace".
IMHO, the best translation is for free here:
