mkedar@mail.biu.ac.il Dr. Mordechai Kedar of Bar-Ilan University defends the Jewishness of Jerusalem, the Jewish capital for over 3000 years. He also defends the right of Israelis to settle in Judea and Samaria, the West Bank. Gil Ronen "We were here when your forefathers were drinking wine, burying their daughters alive and worshipping idols" -- this was just one of Bar Ilan University political scientist Dr. Mordechai Kedar's ripostes to questions by an Al Jazeera interviewer two weeks ago, in an interview that has received rave reviews from Israel-lovers the world over for its forcefulness. "They did not expect me to take the discussion to history and especially not to religion," Kedar told Israel National News. But discuss religion he did in the above video, reminding his interviewer that Jerusalem was not mentioned even once in the Koran and saying directly in fluent Arabic that "Jerusalem is not on the negotiating table," and that "Jerusalem belongs to the Jews, period." "This was very aggravating" for the Al-Jazeera interviewer, Kedar explained, "because in the Islamic view, Islam came into the world to replace Judaism and Christianity, not to live side by side with them. And here, all of a sudden, the Jews are coming from exile and building their state again and G-d forbid they also regained Jerusalem." Judaism is thus regaining its meaning, and Islam is challenged by this, the Bar-Ilan professor explained. "The mere existence of the State of Israel and the fact that we are in Jerusalem is some kind of challenge to the legitimacy of Islam in their eyes," Kedar explained. "This is not pro-Israel public relations," Dr. Kedar told Israel National News. "This is a battle for the Arab heart, which Israel is apparently losing because Israel gave up on the main tool which should have served it, which is an independent Israeli Zionist satellite channel in Arabic." Many Arabs, he said, would consider changing their views if such a channel were available.

I was talking about your pathetic "khazar" comments that were disproven decades ago. Like many typical racists you have to alter what I say in order to respond to your own warped understanding of peoples comments. Furthermore, zionists came with tanks? hahahaha. What tanks? There were virtually no armoury in the Haganah and IDF in israel's indepedence. The arab armies were the ones full of it. The fact you made such a silly error shows you know nothing about the conflict, except your hate.

"under the wing of Islam" Under the Dhimmitudinal yolk of Islamic oppression, paying the jizyah, not allowed to build or repair houses of worship, no alcohol, sharia law reducing women to cattle with no equality under the law.... where no infidel can testify against a muslim... where property can be confiscated on a whim... There are way too many strings attached to the benevolence of Islamic rule. The 750,000 Jewish refugees from Arab countries would rather be safe.

Article Six Hamas Charter : The Islamic Resistance Movement is a distinguished Palestinian movement, whose allegiance is to Allah, and whose way of life is Islam. It strives to raise the banner of Allah over every inch of Palestine, for under the wing of Islam followers of all religions can coexist in security and safety where their lives, possessions and rights are concerned. In the absence of Islam, strife will be rife, oppression spreads, evil prevails and schisms and wars will break out.

"The difference is that you will tolerate an Islamic Empire but not a Christian one." And to further make this point, Christianity precedes Islam. The painful fact that Islam would not exist without Judaism or Christianity is an embarrassment to Islam which is violently expressed in the Koran, specifically forbidding Muslims to take Christians & Jews as friends. If there was any doubt that there is no room for infidels in the Islamic world, just refer to Article 6 of the Hamas Charter: cont/

"British has no right in the Middle East" They had as much right as the Ottoman Turks. Turkey even considers itself part of Europe. The difference is that you will tolerate an Islamic Empire but not a Christian one. There were no Arab countries before WW1. Just territories of the Ottoman Empire. Israel is the historical homeland of the Jews. Arabs live there. Muslim women enjoy equal rights under the law. Palestinians would be unemployed if they did not have Jihad.

cont/ 1 in 6 Israelis is an Arab. It's quite impossible that such a huge proportion could be Arabs if the systematic cleansing that you allude to had occured. No, that honor is reserved for Jordan, where no Jew may be a citizen. Square that circle please, Voice of Stupidity. +, do you consider Egyptians or Joradanians the thieves of Palestine? Why not? Egypt had Gaza. Jordan the West Bank AND Jerusalem. How come no Palestine then? If there is no Palestine it is because your JIHAD is priority #1.

"all you need is visa or citizenship but the Zionists came here with guns and tanks" No, they came with picks and shovels. Land was purchased from the Ottomans. Farms were set up. Bedouin brigands made life hell, malaria was rife. You are rewriting history, just as Mr. AJ tried, unsuccessfully, to rewrite the Koran. Plus, Jews never, ever, left Israel. In the 19th Century they were the majority in Jerusalem. Rullar, a retard? Definitely not. Arabs live in Israel or they left. 1 in 6. cont/

dhimmi12345 "you are an illegal entity brought here and supported by What's wrong with you, you are occupiers even one inch of land belong to you because you are an illegal entity. Why don't you ask for a piece of land for you in the US. The same people who support you will screw you. You don't realize the white skin belong to Europe every body has a territory. British has no right in the Middle East, bastards cheated the Palestinians. They wanted the Palestinians to fight for them.

rulllar ah yes, typical ignorance. Just reject all genetic evidence Hey ruller, no need of genetic testing to live in a country, all you need is visa or citizenship but the Zionists came here with guns and tanks so they should be sent with guns and tanks, you retard. You can't come here by force and force people out of their houses and lands. You call me names, I did not steal your home, you did or made you to leave your land but you did to my brothers. So I hate you, it is not racism.

ألا تعلم أين يقع المسجد الأقصى ؟؟ هل تعتقد أنه في حطين أم في طبرية ؟؟ أم أنك تصطنع البلاهة ؟؟
