In an article published by the Saudi government daily Al-Riyadh, columnist Dr. Umayma Ahmad Al-Jalahma of King Faysal University in Al-Dammam, wrote on "The Jewish Holiday of Purim." Following are excerpts of the article:
Special Ingredient For Jewish Holidays is Human Blood From Non-Jewish Youth
"I chose to [speak] about the Jewish holiday of Purim, because it is connected to the month of March. This holiday has some dangerous customs that will, no doubt, horrify you, and I apologize if any reader is harmed because of this."
"During this holiday, the Jew must prepare very special pastries, the filling of which is not only costly and rare – it cannot be found at all on the local and international markets."
"Unfortunately, this filling cannot be left out, or substituted with any alternative serving the same purpose. For this holiday, the Jewish people must obtain human blood so that their clerics can prepare the holiday pastries. In other words, the practice cannot be carried out as required if human blood is not spilled!!"
"Before I go into the details, I would like to clarify that the Jews' spilling human blood to prepare pastry for their holidays is a well-established fact, historically and legally, all throughout history. This was one of the main reasons for the persecution and exile that were their lot in Europe and Asia at various times."
"This holiday [Purim] begins with a fast, on March 13, like the Jewess Esther who vowed to fast. The holiday continues on March 14; during the holiday, the Jews wear carnival-style masks and costumes and overindulge in drinking alcohol, prostitution, and adultery. This holiday has become known among Muslim historians as the "Holiday of Masks."
"For this holiday, the victim must be a mature adolescent who is, of course, a non-Jew – that is, a Christian or a Muslim. His blood is taken and dried into granules. The cleric blends these granules into the pastry dough; they can also be saved for the next holiday. In contrast, for the Passover slaughtering, about which I intend to write one of these days, the blood of Christian and Muslim children under the age of 10 must be used, and the cleric can mix the blood [into the dough] before or after dehydration."
"Let us now examine how the victims' blood is spilled. For this, a needle-studded barrel is used; this is a kind of barrel, about the size of the human body, with extremely sharp needles set in it on all sides. [These needles] pierce the victim's body, from the moment he is placed in the barrel."
"These needles do the job, and the victim's blood drips from him very slowly. Thus, the victim suffers dreadful torment – torment that affords the Jewish vampires great delight as they carefully monitor every detail of the blood-shedding with pleasure and love that are difficult to comprehend."
"After this barbaric display, the Jews take the spilled blood, in the bottle set in the bottom [of the needle-studded barrel], and the Jewish cleric makes his coreligionists completely happy on their holiday when he serves them the pastries in which human blood is mixed."
"There is another way to spill the blood: The victim can be slaughtered as a sheep is slaughtered, and his blood collected in a container. Or, the victim's veins can be slit in several places, letting his blood drain from his body."
"This blood is very carefully collected – as I have already noted – by the 'rabbi,' the Jewish cleric, the chef who specializes in preparing these kinds of pastries."
"The human race refuses even to look at the Jewish pastries, let alone prepare them or consume them!"(2)
This is not at all clear to a thinking reader. The Middle Eastern / Arab press is all controlled by their governments to some degree. There is not a 1st Amendment, nor a rough-and-tumble free exchange of ideas in a land where saying the wrong thing can get a fatwah pronounced against you. Anything that is said, the government can be said to at least tacitly approve. Finally, we see results of the recent survey showing large numbers of Islamics don't believe that Arabs committed the atrocities of 9/11.
So, I do not take statements like, "Such views are marginal in the Middle East", at face value. It seems all too likely that they might be believed by a significant percentage of the population.
Well, that's because Italian pastries are better, frankly, although I did once find one of Joey "Twopockets" Provenzano's thumbs in one of my panettone.
This muslim propoganda ranks right up there with Protestant claims that Catholics sacrifice babies on the alter and use the nuns for prostitutes.
o A synopsis of the "blood for Purim" story, with a statement from MEMRI's director
o An Arab-produced video clip "showing" Sharon ordering the assault-rifle execution of half-a-dozen-or-so bound and kneeling Pali prisoners, each with their own executioner
o The standard rebuttal by a U.S.-based Muslim spokescreature (CAIR? them, or a similar group), saying "no one in the Middle East pays attention to this stuff" (Then why does it seem so common, in a part of the world where the government controls the press, and the people largely hate us? Perhaps because of government-approved propaganda like this.).
DAMN! I always heard it was the blood of innocent babies they took! MUST people change everything? (sarcasm)
Of course they believe it. They are kept ignorant by their religious cult leaders,and that is their only source of information. Christians used to say and believe the same thing. Crap like this is why it is so important to make sure we never have a theocracy.
BTW,your "Kosher" comment was udderly tastless,and I am jealous. I think at times like this it is proper to ask oneself the important question another FR poster asked,"WWJDD?" Which means,"What would Jeffrey Dahmer Do?"
Different stories. You're thinking of Passover matzo.
