The following video shows protesters in Hartford, mostly supporting Hamas if we are to judge by appearances.
What is truly appalling is the reaction of a woman (named Levy, no less) who apparently says there was no point in Jews having survived Hitler’s concentration camps to come out into the world and behave in this fashion. Watch for this at 2:00 into the video. I had to watch this several times to be sure I saw what I saw.
What is sadly ironic here is that Hitler’s Final Solution was worsened through the instigation of a man we might nowadays call a radical jihadist, Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem.
Who was al-Husseini? He was a godfather of the modern pan-Islamic movement which seeks to destroy Israel (and Jews) today – and did so long before 1967, or 1948. Few are aware of the Nazi-Islamic connection during World War II. Al-Husseini was known to have personally urged Hitler and his underlings to liquidate the Jews. Evidence is abundant as to this fact and even Wikipedia has published a picture of a 1943 telegram from Himmler to the Grand Mufti in which he lauds the Mufti’s efforts:
‘To the Grand Mufti: The National Socialist [Nazi] movement of Greater Germany has, since its inception, inscribed upon its flag the fight against the world Jewry. It has therefore followed with particular sympathy the struggle of freedom-loving Arabs, especially in Palestine, against Jewish interlopers. In the recognition of this enemy and of the common struggle against it lies the firm foundation of the natural alliance that exists between the National Socialist Greater Germany and the freedom-loving Muslims of the whole world. In this spirit I am sending you on the anniversary of the infamous Balfour declaration my hearty greetings and wishes for the successful pursuit of your struggle until the final victory.’ Reichsfuehrer S.S. Heinrich Himmler
Yugoslavia sought to indite the Mufti as a war criminal for his role in raising 20,000 Muslim S.S. troops to kill Jews in Central Europe.
A convicted and executed Nazi war criminal was quoted as saying:
The Mufti was one of the initiators of the systematic extermination of European Jewry and had been a collaborator and advisor of Eichmann and Himmler in execution of this plan…He was one of Eichmann’s best friends and had constantly incited him to accelerate the extermination measures. I heard him say, accompanied by Eichmann, he had visited incognito the gas chamber of Auschwitz.
It is time for people to realize what they are really doing when they support Hamas: they are supporting an ideology that wishes to replicate the tactics – and the results – of al-Husseini… and Hitler.
