[Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News] "Israel and the US cheers every time Muslims kill each other"

From Malay Mail Online January 24:

Muslims are doing the US and Israel a favour every time they kill one of their own, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said today as he called for unity among Islam’s followers to push for global recognition of a Palestinian state.

He said Muslims today are too preoccupied with revenge and killing each other over ideological differences, that they have forgotten that the Quran calls for brotherhood among all the faithful.

“Currently we are trying to bring down governments, we are fighting each other, and we are accusing each other of not being Islamic enough, just so that we can murder them.

“Every time a Muslim kills another Muslim, the Israelis and Americans cheer because we are doing their work for them. We should realise that and stop fighting each other,” he said in his keynote address at the launch of a US$1 billion (RM3.6 billion) fund raiser to rebuild Gaza.

This dovetails nicely with the video yesterday of Abd Al-Bari Atwan saying that Arabs must wage jihad against Israel since it is all they can unite on.

Mahatir is arguing the flip side: the reason that Muslims shouldn't kill each other is because it makes Israel happy. Clearly, Mahatir knows that telling them not to fight each other because killing is a bad thing won't get through to them, but if they know that Israelis are happy that they are killing each other, that might be enough to get them to stop - because who can stand when Jews are happy?

Mahatir is a known antisemite, a fact of which he is proud.

Dr Mahathir, long a critic of US foreign policy, claimed that the Muslim world in its current state of disunity is unable to counter the West’s “hypocrisy of the highest order” in dealing with terrorism and human rights.

He accused Israel and its western backers of being “state terrorists” responsible for the killing of 200,000 Palestinians, describing it as a far worse act of terrorism compared to the deadly attack on French satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo earlier this month.

200,000? Not quite. The number of Palestinian Arabs killed by Israel in 66 years is about one tenth of his estimate.

But it seems a little silly to expect him to say anything truthful to begin with.
