‘Jerusalem is not holy to Muslims’

Muslims tell at least five big lies.
 
First of all, they have Mecca and Medina as their “holy” cities, and their Quran does not mention Jerusalem even once, meaning their claim to Israel’s capital as their "third holiest" city is fraudulent and aimed simply at stealing the city from the Jews.
 
Secondly they adamantly assert that the “Palestinians” comprise a nation – although they have no national history – and that Israel has to give Judea, Samaria and Gaza “back” to these “Palestinians” – although those lands have never been under their rule.
 
Thirdly, they claim the Jews occupy Arab lands, when in fact the Arabs are the occupiers in the Middle East – they belong in Arabia and have no right to Egypt, Syria, Jordan or Lebanon. Judea, Samaria and Gaza is not Israeli-occupied territory but Arab-occupied territory.
 
Fourthly, they proclaim that Islam is a religion of peace, when Islam was established by the edge of the sword; when Muslims are involved in almost every war on the planet; and when Muslims introduced terrorism as we know it today to the world, and are responsible for almost all terrorist attacks in the world.
 
Fifthly, they repeat ad nauseum that they want to live in peace with Israel when an overwhelming mountain of both factual and circumstantial evidence proves that their unaltered aim and goal is to destroy the Jewish state.
 
This was the thrust of blistering remarks made by one of the few Jewish leaders still courageous enough to withstand the flood of lies about the Arab-Israeli conflict that have been swallowed and championed as facts.
 
Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) President Morton Klein assailed these core myths upon which the whole “Middle East Peace Process” is predicated in a speech in a Canadian synagogue.
 
According to a report in The Canadian Jewish News Friday, he also slammed Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert’s willingness to even consider the Saudi Arabian “peace” plan that sees the Jews returned to the 1967 “Auschwitz borders.”
