We in Israel would very much like to know what the 'average' Iranian's impression is of Israel and their 'knowledge.' I put that word in quotes because that knowledge is gotten from government-sponsored media and the rest of the Arab world. Israel still wants to help!


Iran clarifies the Middle East

That is how deep the hatred of Israel and Jews is in much of the Muslim world

If you want to understand the Middle East conflict, Iran has just provided all you need to know.

A massive earthquake kills between 20,000 and 40,000 Iranians, and the government of Iran announces that help is welcome from every country in the world ... except Israel.

This little-reported news item is of great significance. It begs commentary.

Israel not only has the world's most experienced crews in quickly finding survivors in bombed out buildings, it is also a mere two-hour flight from Iran. In other words, no country in the world would come close to Israel in its ability to save Iranian lives quickly.

But none of this means anything to the rulers of Iran. The Islamic government of Iran has announced to the world that it is better for fellow countrymen and fellow Muslims – men, women and children – to die buried under rubble than to be saved by a Jew from Israel.

That is how deep the hatred of Israel and Jews is in much of the Muslim world.

Hundreds of millions of Muslims – Arab and non-Arab, Sunni and Shia – hate Israel more than they love life. Leaders of the Palestinian terror organization Hamas repeatedly state, "We love death more than the Jews love life." And now, Iran announces that it is better for a Muslim to asphyxiate under the earth than be rescued by a Jew from Israel.

Naive Westerners – which includes most academics, intellectuals, members of the international news media, and nearly all others on the left – refuse to acknowledge the uniqueness of the Arab-Muslim hatred of Israel and Jews. Yet, there is no hatred in the world analogous to it. Not since the Nazi hatred of Jews has humanity witnessed such hate.

That is why finding survivors from earthquakes, creating a Palestinian state and life itself are all far less important in much of the Islamic and Arab worlds than killing Jews and destroying the little Jewish state.

That is why Arab newspapers run articles by Arab professors describing how Jews butcher non-Jewish children to use their blood for holiday meals.

That is why Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad could get a standing ovation from the heads of every Muslim country when he told them "the Jews rule the world by proxy."

That is why Palestinian parents celebrate the suicide terror of their sons – the joy of killing Israeli families far outweighs the pain of the death of their child.

Western naifs like to believe platitudes such as "Deep down, all people are really the same," "All people want peace," and the great untruth of multiculturalism that no culture is morally superior to another. That is why they choose not to face the truth about the Nazi-like hatred that permeates the Arab-Muslim world and the consequent moral gulf that exists between it and Israel. It shatters too many of their illusions.

Surely the Iranian refusal of rescuers from the Jewish state ought to help all these people acknowledge the unique hatred that is at the root of the Arab-Israeli dispute and recognize it is, therefore, a conflict unlike any other on earth.

So, too, the immediate and sincere Israeli offer of rescuers to Iran should make the moral gulf between Israel and its enemies as clear as day. Despite the fact that Iran is the greatest backer of anti-Israel (and anti-American) terror and despite the fact that Iran repeatedly declares that Israel must be annihilated (in other words, seeks a second Jewish Holocaust), Israel offered to send its people to save Iranian lives.

The two reactions – Iran's preference for Iranian deaths to Israeli help and the Jewish state's instinctive offer to help save Iranian lives – ought to be enough anyone needs to understand the source of the Middle East conflict. But they won't. Because those who are anti-Israel or "evenhanded" are not so because of the facts, but despite them.

My understanding is that in regards to Israel - Iranian people are an anomoly in the Middle East. Their history is very much different, distinct and in my opinion much greater than history of the Arabs.. The Iranian people have a long history with the Jews - Cryus saved thousands of Jews... from Iranchamber:

"The victories to the east led him again to the west and sounded the hour for attack on Babylon and Egypt. When he conquered Babylon, he did so to cheers from the Jewish Community, who welcomed him as a liberator- he allowed the Jews to return to the promised Land. He showed great forbearance and respect towards the religious beliefs and cultural traditions of other races. These qualities earned him the respect and homage of all the people over whom he ruled."



The Iranian people appreciate the Jewish people and have no hatred for them at all.. It is the Islamic Regime in Iran and other regimes that propogate hate against the Jews.. The time will come for them.. the Iranian people are very near to the day when freedom will reign..

[color=darkblue][/color]Redemption: Thanks for responding to me. I see you're in California. Are you an Iranian in exile? BTW, I'm the Anonymous you responded to by saying that it is very dangerous to allow outsiders in to talk with the people. (I didn't log in; so, I wasn't using my User Name). I'm still waiting to get word from an organization here if it can be possible to get a shipment of things to be sent to Iran. I've been sending these articles to lots of people. I don't know what else to do.
