Religion of Peace: Itbah Al-yahud

On February 9, 2010, in Politics, by Henshaw

One of the most eye opening aspects of Mark Steyn’s book American Alone is the amount of Islamic Fundamentalism in Europe. It’s almost as if the citizens in the European states are so tolerant they’re incapable of stopping the intolerant. For those paying attention it seems like there’s some new story everyday documenting Europe’s growing antisemitic population.

Israel’s Deputy Foreign Minister was met by a protester screaming “slaughter the Jews” as he spoke at the Oxford Union. Antisemitic and anti-Israel abuse was shouted throughout Danny Ayalon’s speech on Monday evening, with students causing numerous disruptions to the event.

During the hour-long session one student ran towards Mr Ayalon shouting the Arabic phrase “Itbah Al-Yahud” [Slaughter the Jews].

This is at Oxford and it’s an Oxford student. This isn’t some disadvantaged youth who blames all his problems on Jews. Not to let Cambridge off the hook. The Cambridge Islamic Society has a guest speaker who says he’d be happy to be a suicide bomber. Free speech is alive an well in Europe as long as you’re not a climate change skeptic.

Palestinian academic Azzam Tamimi, who has said he would be happy to be a suicide bomber, will address Cambridge University students tonight, despite calls from the Union of Jewish Students to revoke the invitation.

Who do those Jewish students think they are? What harm can come from Tamimi’s speech? Well, I guess Jews have a whole host of reasons to be concerned.
