I can easily believe Abbass wrote this. Most Arabs do not accept Israel because they divide the world into two, Dir al Charev and dir al Islam. Dir al Charev is the world that needs to be conquered for Islam and it is a ‘mitzvah’ for them to continually fight against the infidels to convert them and their land to Islam.

The second category is dir al Islam. this means that this is land that has be captured and hence, ‘converted’ to Islamic rule. Since Turkey is Islamic and they ruled Palestine, modern Israel is considered dir al Islam and must be returned to the fold of Islam ASAP!

That is why no Arab especially their leaders can really accept Israel as a Jewish state.

I truly suggest that all people get a copy of the Koran and read it in the WC, which is where it should stay, in order to know more about our enemies. This is, in my opinion, permitted by halacha, since reading it is not for learning how to follow there religion, but understanding how to protect oneself.

I guess the arab yemach sh’mo forgot that Facebook is public. This is what he says in his arabic speeches that people don’t want to translate.

“The post is dated shabbos, 13 October 2012″

I highly doubt the date on Facebook lists it as Shobbos. I have heard from multiple gedolim that when referencing the seventh day of the week for secular matters, it is more appropriate to call it Saturday, as opposed to Shobbos. I would venture that the same applies, or even more so, when referencing Abu Mazan’s Facebook page.

This is cheap journalism. Why isn’t there a precise quote of his entire Facebook entry?
