Muslims Boycott Holocaust Remembrance (UK)

I can't recall that Muslims were involved in the Holocaust.

Muslims and Nazis, WW2 Collaboration Documents

Haj Amin Al-Husseini

Muslims Recruited into the SS

You need to learn your history.

[An American In Dairyland]

Yes. Arafat's uncle was the Mufti of Jersulem (his title). His name was something like Haj Mohammed al-Husseini.

[Clara Lou]

The mufti of Jerusalem, uncle of Arafat...
I did not know that. Arafat, vermin, descendent of vermin.

You need to learn your history.
And you need to be more accurate in your statements.

"BRITISH Muslims are to boycott this week’s commemoration of the liberation of Auschwitz because they claim it is not racially inclusive and does not commemorate the victims of the Palestinian conflict."

Racially inclusive??? Since when is Muslim a race?

Commemorate the "victims" of the Palestinian conflict??? You can't be serious. This is about the holocost. Oh, that's right. You British Muslims will be mourning Hitler's loss, not the Jews killed by Hitler.

What do you contribute to this world but hatred, death and distruction? Just remember, what goes around, comes around. And that can't soon enough for you bunch of evil, hate mongering losers.

holocost = holocaust.

I can't spell anyway, but especially not when I get this angry.

I was informed on this very web site, that the muslims in the former Yugoslavia played a BIG role in the mass killing of thousands of Jews and Orthodox Christians during WII, in Bosnia and Croatia.

There were nazi death camps in which 800,000 Christians and Jews died. I cannot remember the totals but is was something like 20,000 Jews and the rest were Christians.

Keyword: Muslim Hanjar SS division. Try Google.

Germany always maintained close ties to Islamic powers.
Remember in the First World War they were allied with
the Ottoman Empire (which was what is now Iraq, Jordan,
Syria, etc.) We forget that they were therefore OUR enemy then. Hitler's anti-Semitism was very
appealing to the mutual anti-Semitism of the Arab world
and they provided much clandestine assistance to the
NAZI's, e.g. Rommel in Africa.

[Mr. Keys]

Which Muslims opposed Hitler? Waiting.

[2nd amendment mama]

"It would also be *nice* if these ceremonies openly acknowledged that gypsies, Poles....."

Exactly! Some of my non-Jewish Polish relatives were killed in the holocaust.

Technically a Arab Can't be an anti-semite.

My problem was with this comment: Most Moslems were complicit with the Axis in the Haulocaust! It's just not accurate as stated. It's just as inaccurate as this comment by the same poster on another thread: The Somalis are a puke race!

[Clara Lou]

You can wait until the cows come home if you want to. Just which comment of mine are you referring to?

[Marano NYC]

There should be Sudanese and Armenians there as well. There seems to be a problem with genocide done by Muslims on ethnic minorities. One could easily add worshiping the wrong type of Islam in the wrong country.

Let's see you left off your list the following :

Serbian Orthodox Christians by the thousands and their Patriarch, Russian P.O.W.s, Orthodox Christans from all Eastern European countries and their clergy, Lutherans and their clergy from Germany, Lutherans from Hungary, Baptists from Germany and just about ANY Christians who dared speak out or act contrary to hitler's goals.

Take a look when you get a chance at the web site for the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C. I recommend it highly.

One thing that so many folks miss when discussing the murder of millions by hitler and his supporters: HITLER WANTED TO TOTALLY ELIMINATE THE JEWS AS A PEOPLE AND A RELIGION. THIS WAS THE ONLY ORGANIZED GROUP FOR WHICH HE HAD SUCH PLANS.

He wanted the slavs to be SLAVES. The gypsies were to be eliminated but they were not of one single religion like the Jews.

And, that my friend, is why.... when people start to write or talk about the holocaust, THEY ALWAYS MENTION THE TERROR OF WHAT HAPPENED TO THE JEWS IN SUCH A FORCEFUL WAY!!

Entire families, generations destoyed in such cruel ways. Yes, the Jews deserve to be mentioned FIRST and foremost when we remember the holocaust. That mention does not lessen the value of the sacrifice of all of hitler's victims.

NEVER FORGET!!
