 Saudi Judenhass for moppets: Further to that story yesterday about Queen Noor and the Arab Children Congress (event motto:  “Quality Education is Key”), the National Post has an article about some of the “quality” education moppets in Saudi Arabia have been receiving:

Despite a promise to remove attacks on other faiths from the public school curriculum, Saudi Arabia's state-produced textbooks still refer to Jews and Christians as apes and swine, insist that Jews conspire to take over the world and on Judgment Day "the rocks or the trees" will call out to Muslims to kill the Jews, says the Washington-based Hudson Institute, a conservative think-tank.

The textbooks, used by five million students in the kingdom every year, as well as in many Saudi-funded institutions outside the country, also attack homosexuals and Muslims who do not practise a fundamentalist form of Islam.

For example:

-"The punishment for homosexuality is death. The companions of the Prophet were unanimous on killing although they differed ... in the manner of killing. Some companions ... stated that a homosexual is to be burned with fire ... he should be stoned or thrown from a high place."

-"You can hardly find an example of sedition in which the Jews have not played a role."

-Zionism has achieved its aims through a variety of "destructive movements" including the Rotary Clubs and International Lions Clubs, which are "Masonic clubs based in America and they have secret agents all over the world."

One of the suggested activities for Grade 8 students is to "write a composition on the danger of imitating infidels, giving some examples of imitation among the students and then present it to his classmates."

Nina Shea, author of the report, Saudi Arabia's Curriculum of Intolerance, said the deeper problem the textbooks represent is a noxious ideology that is being exported all over the world…

My question for Canada’s Jewstablishment: what do you hope to achieve by going after incontinent Nazis and White Power pishers—at the expense of our cardinal freedom—when the Wahhabis, who exert far more influence than Hitler ever did, and have for far longer, are daily spewing out this poison to receptive mosques and madrassahs around the globe? Unless you have to plans to haul the Saudi education minister in front of an HRC and get a binding judgement against him and his policies, I suggest you knock it off post haste.
