If there\u2019s a religion out there that isn\u2019t Islam, Muslims will sooner or later get into a fight with it. Even if the religion is Islam, Muslims will still fight each other over which Islam is the right one.<\/p>\n<p>But the main idea of Islamism is that the Jews are behind all the evil in the world. So when Muslims get into a fight with Buddhists, who are not that easy to provoke, their theology demands that the whole thing be explained in terms of Evil Jew Theory.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u00a0leaves them no other choicebut to claim that\u00a0the Jews invented Buddhism. Buddhism predates Islam. But Muslims have no problem dismissing older traditions and cultures as pawns of the Jewish Devil and then destroying them.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In an August 8, 2012 interview with the Rasa news agency titled \u201cThe Cruel Genocide Against The Muslim People In Myanmar,\u201d Ayatollah Ruhollah Qarehi, head of the Imam Mahdi seminary in Tehran, said: \u201cThe genocide of the Muslims in Myanmar is ostensibly being carried out by the Buddhists, but we are certain that Judaism and Global Zionism are [behind] the massacre and the genocide against the Muslims\u2026 The tenets of Buddhism are derived from Judaism. The Buddhists are a tool [in the hands] of the Jews, and \u2018Buddhism\u2019 is a name behind which [hides] the hand of Judaism and Global Zionism.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Why did Jews invent Buddhism? Because everyone hates Jews and everyone loves Buddhists. So the Jews just started claiming to be Asians and calling themselves Buddhists.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>But, since the Jew knows that he is an [object of] derision throughout the world, he hides behind a pseudonym like \u2018Buddhism.\u2019 Lecturers at seminaries and universities, as well as the media, must [speak up] in various languages and in eloquent terms\u2026 and explain to the people and to our dear youth that behind [the term] \u2018Buddhism\u2019 there [hides] the Jew.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It was a brilliant plan and the Jews would have gotten away with it too if it wasn\u2019t for Muslims. And unsatisfied with just pretending to be Buddhists, the Jews also control Hinduism, apparently.<\/p>\n<div id=\"adWrapper2\"><\/div>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cToday the Jewish hand emerges from the sleeve of the Buddhists in Burma [i.e., Myanmar], [trying to] retaliate against the seekers of freedom in Muslim lands by harming the poverty-stricken Muslims of Myanmar.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Poverty-stricken but also rather rapey and foreign, which may have something to do with Buddhist anger.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt is no surprise, [then], that the media and international community have remained silent [over the events in Myanmar], for they are controlled by the political and economic power of the Zionists<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yes, the international community is notoriously silent when it comes to condemning Israel for horrifying crimes such as building houses.<\/p>\n<p>Basij Commander Mohammad Reza Naqdi expands the conspiracy beyond mere Judaism to America and Freemasonry.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>America and the Zionists are the main culprits [responsible for] the genocide of Muslims in Myanmar. [But] our [Iranian] nation is aware of [their] plots. Last Friday, we witnessed protests [that were held] throughout the country after the Friday prayers, at which calls of \u2018Death to Zionism\u2019 and \u2018Death to America\u2019 were heard. This shows that, in the case of Myanmar, they did not manage to divert the people\u2019s attention away from the main perpetrators of the crime [in that country].<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGlobal Zionism and Freemasonry are the planners of all crimes against the Muslims.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Any chance they can appoint these guys to negotiate one-on-one with Kerry?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>Filed Under:\u00a0The Point\u00a0Tagged With:\u00a0Buddhism,\u00a0Iran,\u00a0muslim anti-semitism<\/div>\n<div>\n<h5>About\u00a0Daniel Greenfield<\/h5>\n<p>Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is a New York writer focusing on radical Islam.
