Jews rule the world: Mahathir [Malaysian PM; largest Islamic conference since 9/11 begins]

JEWS rule the world, getting others to fight and die for them, but will not be able to defeat the world's 1.3 billion Muslims, Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has told a major Islamic summit.

"The Europeans killed six million Jews out of 12 million. But today the Jews rule this world by proxy. They get others to fight and die for them," Mahathir said, adding, "1.3 billion Muslims cannot be defeated by a few million Jews."

The veteran Malaysian premier, who has become notorious for his controversial speeches during his 22 years as leader of this moderate Muslim country, was addressing the opening session of the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) summit.

He told the biggest gathering of Muslim leaders since the 2001 attacks on the United States that all Muslims were suffering "oppression and humiliation", with their religion accused of promoting terrorism.

Acknowledging weakness and division in the organisation's ranks, Mahathir said they could at least take a common stand on the Palestinian struggle against Israel and it was time to plan a "counter-attack" against the enemies of Islam who treated Muslims with "contempt and dishonour".

He called on Muslims to emulate the Jewish response to oppression, saying the Jews had "survived 2000 years of pogroms not by hitting back, but by thinking".

"They invented and successfully promoted socialism, communism, human rights and democracy so that persecuting them would appear to be wrong, so they may enjoy equal rights with others.

"With these they have now gained control of the most powerful countries and they, this tiny community, have become a world power.

"We cannot fight them through brawn alone, we must use our brains also," he said.

"Of late because of their power and their apparent success they have become arrogant. And arrogant people like angry people will make mistakes, will forget to think.

"They are already beginning to make mistakes. And they will make more mistakes. There may be windows of opportunity for us now and in the future. We must seize these opportunities."

Mahathir, however, who has in the past condemned Palestinian suicide bombers as "terrorists", appeared to suggest that it was time for an end to violence against the Israelis.

"Over the past 50 years of fighting in Palestine we have not achieved any result. We have in fact worsened our situation."

He said the Koran "tells us that when the enemy sues for peace we must react positively. True the treaty offered is not favourable to us. But we can negotiate".

He said he was aware that this proposal could not be popular and its opponents "would want to send more young men and women to make the supreme sacrifice. But where will all these lead to? Certainly not victory."

However, he did call on Muslims to match their studies of religion with attention to science and mathematics because "we need guns and rockets, bombs and warplanes, tanks and warships for our defence".

This was apparently a reference to what he sees as a broader assault on Muslims by the Western world in the guise of the war on terrorism. He said enemies of Islam "attack and kill us, invade our lands, bring down our governments".

Among the more than 30 Muslim leaders present for the summit are Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf, Prince Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz of Saudi Arabia and Megawati Sukarnoputri, the president of the world's largest Muslim country Indonesia.

1.3 billion Muslims cannot be defeated by a few million Jews

Actually, I think they can.

[goldstategop]

Yawn> I really do rule the world by proxy. George Bush, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mohammed Mathir, and evey other goy on the planet is my socket puppet. Why? I'm one of those Jews who is bent on ruling the world!

[yonif]

ROFL

[goldstategop]

See... if we rule the world how come he can make such a slanderous charge against the Jewish people? Wait - we're not really THAT powerful after all if we can't shut up a Malaysian anti-Semite. And there's irony for you when you realize there have never been any Jews in his country.

[Mr. Mojo]

Yep, my bet is on the Jews.

[goldstategop]

The world's worst dictators and tyrants are paranoid about Jews. The more things change, the more they remain the same.

[RLK]

Another one of Bush's psychotic moderates heard from. The Jews have a small pathc of land and these idiots act as if it's the world.

[Mr. Mojo]

Indeed .....(although I must admit I've never heard of this Mahathir guy).

[mvonfr]

leader of this moderate Muslim country

A very moderate Muslim, indeed.

[goldstategop]

Moderate and Muslim are two words that should never appear together. I have yet to hear a spokesperson from the Religion Of Peace preach goodwill and tolerance towards ALL men.

[The Old Hoosier]

LOL!!! I guess this is good news for Jews everywhere, eh?

[marron]

I really do rule the world by proxy

Oh, was that you? Do you have a suggestion box?

I'd like to propose a casual Friday kind of thing, but world-wide. What do you think?

[goldstategop]

LOL!!! Some people get taken in literally. If Muslims are so dumb as to believe Jews order them around, they are still living in the Dark Ages. There's scant evidence they're ready to join the 21st Century along with the rest of the human race.

[carlson]

The only lie that I ever heard Prez. Bush tell was ~~
"Islam is a religon of peace".

[ikka]

Ho ho, the Muslim fools have bought into the lie!

Actually it us Mennonites and Amish who control the world. We just manipulate all the Jews, in order for them to serve as our red herring.

[goldstategop]

Islam Is The Religion Of Hate. TM I wish our President would help to trademark THAT expression. Its completely accurate and for once he would be telling the truth.

[razorback-bert]

Actually, we WASPs rule and let the Jews take the blame.
