Judge Hopes Muslim Who Shouted "Kill the Jews" Isn't Prejudiced

March 6, 2016

I certainly hope so. Calls for genocide are bad enough. But prejudiced calls for genocide are even worse.

After getting stuck in London traffic, Rashal Miah got out of his Mercedes and started shouting that he would "kill all the Jews" at an Orthodox Jewish school-bus driver in front of a bus full of young children.

During Miah's sentencing, Judge Murray Shanks in the UK called the driver's behavior "horrible."

"I accept this was mainly driven by you being wrongly angry and suffering from road rage, as well as being arrogant about what you were entitled to do on the road," Shanks told Miah. "I hope it doesn't indicate some underlying prejudice."

Surely shouting "Kill all the Jews" because you're angry at a Jewish bus driver in no way indicates some underlying prejudice.

"If this was the other way around and Muslims were being insulted, I have a good feeling you would feel strongly. You need to understand that before you open your mouth," the judge said.

Well of course he would feel strongly. But that's different. Because Muslims are the Master Race.

These condescending liberal lectures are great, but Muslims don't see themselves as a minority. Our friend Rashal has been informed by the Koran that Jews are accursed by Allah. He recites this every day in his prayers. His preachers tell him the Hadiths that the apocalypse won't come until Muslims kill all the Jews.

So the "How would you feel" lecture doesn't work at all because Rashal doesn't share the universalist premises of Western multiculturalism that other people are basically like him. His religion tells him otherwise. And who is a British judge to argue with Islam?

Miah also reportedly called the bus driver "Yehudi," the word for "Jew" in Hebrew and similarly in Arabic.

Yahoodi is basically a slur among Muslims. It is used to insult other Muslims and non-Muslims the way they might call a man a dog. But no underlying prejudice. Genocide without prejudice is the Muslim way since we know that Islam is a religion of peace, love and tolerance that kills people without any hatred.
