Jews in Muslim Countries in Danger
Arutz 7 ^ | Jan/14/09 | staff

(IsraelNN.com) Jews living in majority-Muslim countries are in a precarious situation as Israel fights the Islamist Hamas regime in Gaza. While pro-Hamas, anti-Semitic rallies and sporadic attacks are continuing worldwide, Jews in Muslim lands face an additional danger as a vulnerable minority.

In Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim state, that nation's only synagogue was forcibly shut down and sealed. Located in an ethnic Arab neighborhood of Surabaya, Indonesia's second-largest city, the synagogue became the focus of a Muslim mob last Wednesday following a "free speech forum" held in the city. The small Indonesian synagogue, without benefit of a Torah scroll or rabbi, is in Rivka Sayers' home. She is one of only a handful of Jews living in the Muslim state, most of whom are of mixed European-Asian background.

Any religion other than the Satanic cult of Islam is in trouble in a Muslim majority country.

I was on TDY in Iran back in 1975. Then, there was a thriving Jewish community, and there were very strong ties between the Iranian and Israeli military. I certainly wouldn’t feel comfortable there now if I were Jewish, with those demon-possessed mullahs running the show.

Muslims in Muslim countries are in danger. Indeed, all living things, including single-celled bacteria, are in danger in Muslim countries.

Yet we keep on importing Somalis and other Muslims to this country.

Abdul Mohamed Kudsy was charged with sexually abusing an 11-year-old mentally handicapped boy in Maryland. Then there are the honor killings. Etc.

Why would anyone besides Muzzies live in one of the Hell Holes that the Muzzies run. It's like a death wish for sanity.
