"The British newspaper Daily Mail described the punishments
set out in the Islamic shari´a as barbarism,[3]
and expressed concern for the Jews, claiming that the Saudi
curricula, which it described as ´shocking,´ encouraged
schoolchildren to kill Jewish adolescents. [The article also] claimed
that all the Saudi [text]books imply that the Jewish people must be
annihilated, in that they say that ´the hour [of judgment] will not
come until the Muslims fight the Jews and kill them.´ The report also
described how these curricula harm the status of women, portraying
them as weak and irresponsible. [Apparently,] the American Fox News
channel [likewise] had trouble finding an interesting topic [for
discussion, and therefore] repeated its attacks against Saudi
Arabia´s curricula, discussing the same issues as the Daily
Mail.[4]
"I cannot understand how these media allowed themselves to ignore,
in a racist manner, what the Talmud says about Jesus and his mother,
Mary, and about the Christians, or how they made no mention of the
brutal precepts of the Old Testament, which is holy to both the Jews
and the Christians. How did [these media] allow themselves to ignore
what the Christian religious leaders have said [about the Jews]? If
they are truly reformist, as they claim, is it not their duty to
first scrutinize themselves before looking to the right or the
left?"
The Talmud Slanders Jesus and
Mary
"When we look in the Talmud, we find that it describes Jesus
as ´the Nazarene who is in the depths of Hell, among the pitch, tar,
and fire´, and says that his mother, Mary, was impregnated by the
soldier Panthera while having adulterous relations [with him]. [Jesus
is also] described as ´crazy´ and a ´scoundrel.´ According to [the
Jews themselves,] the Jewish holiday of Passover coincided with the
Messiah´s crucifixion, as it says in the Talmud: ´On the eve of
Passover, Jesus the Nazarene was hanged [on the cross].´ Regarding
the Christians, the Talmud says: ´It is obligatory to kill a
Christian. Any agreement with a Christian is not a valid agreement
that is binding for a Jew. A Jew is obligated to curse the heads of
the Christian faith three times, as well as all the kings that
express animosity toward the Children of Israel. The Christian
churches are on the level of trash, and their preachers are like
barking dogs.´
"Jewish racism applies equally to all the non-Jewish peoples. It
says in the Talmud: ´God created the goy – the non-Jew – in
human form so that he would be fit to serve the Jews, for whom the
world was created.´ It also says: ´The difference between humans and
animals is analogous to the difference between the Jew and the rest
of the nations.´ The Old Testament, which is holy to both the Jews
and the Christians, says in I Samuel: ´Now go, attack the Amalekites
and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare
them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and
sheep, camels and donkeys.´"
Western Protestantism is
Antisemitic
"I cannot understand why these [Western] media did not dwell on
what Martin Luther, founder of Protestantism, wrote in his
16th century book On the Jews and Their Lies, which
says that the Jews are ´a nation of deaf, heretical, arrogant,
crafty, and abominable people.´ He wanted them to be humiliated and
even tortured in Hell, as he wrote: ´All who are able should toss
sulphur and pitch on them; it would be good if someone could also
throw in some hellfire. That would demonstrate our respect for God
and Christianity, so that God will see that we are truly Christians.
We must destroy their houses [of worship], tear up their prayer books
and Talmud, and ban their rabbis from teaching the people now and
forever. And if [the Jews] do not [observe this ban], they must be
punished with death. We must close our roads and main streets to
them. Usury must be prohibited to them, and all the cash and treasure
of silver and gold which they have amassed must be taken from them.
If this does not help, we must drive them out of the land like mad
dogs.´"
The West, Not Saudi Arabia, Exploits
Women
"As for the [Western media´s] slanderous and unjust claims that
the aforementioned [Saudi] textbooks degrade women and describe them
as ´weak and irresponsible´... I say that many Saudi women have
proven their worth by serving their religion, their homeland, and
their families. What is more, I believe they surpass [non-Saudi]
women in many fields...
"How does the Western media explain [the fact that] it claims to
respect women, yet at the same time it insists on exploiting them by
paying them less than men who have the same skills and do the same
work, or even less work? If we ask them about this exploitative
policy, or why they ignore what is said about the Jews´ stance vis-à-
vis the Christian faith and believers, or about the stance of the
[Jewish] scholars vis-à-vis women, they will have no answer to give.
They would be better off focusing on their own problems and seeking
to resolve them, instead of occupying themselves with the domestic
issues of other countries..."
