Yasser Arafat a Moroccan Jew?
Israeli Guy (Weblog) ^ | February 17, 2004 | Israeli Guy

Posted on 02/17/2004 5:31:05 PM PST by Piranha

At least that is what a new book published in Syria says. According to the book, written b y a top PLO member, Arafat’s father Arrived to Jerusalem from a village in Morocco populated mostly by Jews. The author claims that a cousin of Arafat confirmed that Arafat changed his last name trying to hide his Jewish Moroccan roots.

The author also writes what has been known for a long time that Arafat was born in Cairo not in Jerusalem. Arafat’s father was married to an Arab woman from Jerusalem but Arafat was not born there. Another thing the book says is that Arafat is not related, as he claims, to the infamous/ famous Husseini family from Jerusalem. As for being from Moroccan origin the book quotes Morocco’s former Foreign Affairs minister that as far as he knows Arafat is from that Moroccan village. (all of the above freely translated from Israeli news siteYnet)

The readers of Ynet had some funny conclusions: If Arafat is a Jew it will explain many things. For example it explains why Arafat refused to accept Barak and Clinton plan to give land to the Palestinians. It would also explain why he leads the Palestinians to chaos. Why he encourages suicide bombings that causes more and more people to loathe the Palestinians. Another thing: If Arafat is a Jew and he lives in the West Bank, does that make him a settler?

The article claims that his blood relationship with the Husseinis (the Mufti who palled around with Hitler) is questionable.

I don't know...the Baba Sali?

Give the man a cigar. Arafats uncle was a pal of our old friend, Uncle Adolph.

In fact, he formed an all Muslim brigade to assist the SS in exterminating Jews.

However, I think doubts about Arafats lineage are irrelavent. What is relevant are his actions, and there's no doubt that he wants to see all the Jews in the Middle East dead.

Mr. Al-Kidwa also announced that the Arab in reality has the true Jewish blood

Does this mean they are going to start blowing each other up?

I was understanding that Arafat (his nom de guerre) was an Egyptian. He's certainly not a "palestinian".

He's also a rumored homosexual. And on the KGB payroll. ... but now I am getting into conspiracy muck, better check my BBC sources ... NOPE, completely wrong, he's a nobel prize winner and like winnie mandela, never hurt a fly.

Al Husseini Spirit still going strong in Bosnia:

Daily Telegraph, 29 December 1993
By Robert Fox in Fojnica (Bosnia)

Last summer Muslim and Croat leaders in Fojnica asked the WN to declare it a "zone of peace". Since then war has ravaged the town, bringing murder, mayhem and exile to at least half its original population of 12,000. Different, and alien, forces are now in charge -- some of the toughest in the Bosnian Muslim army.

These are the men of the Handzar division. "We do everything with the knife, and we always fight on the frontline," a Handzar told one UN officer.

Up to 6000-strong, the Handzar division glories in a fascist culture. They see themselves as the heirs of the SS Handzar division, formed by Bosnian Muslims in 1943 to fight for the Nazis. Their spiritual model was Mohammed Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem who sided with Hitler.

According to UN officers, surprisingly few of those in charge of the Handzars in Fojnica seem to speak good Serbo-Croatian. "Many of them are [Muslim] Albanian, whether from Kosovo (the Serb province where Albanians are the majority) or from Albania itself."

<< Could be true. Adolph Hitler had Jewish roots. I think his Holocost was a form of self hatred. >>

Herr Schicklegruber was a death-and-destruction-worshipping pagan-heathen and a passionate admirer of the original Nazi, the false-fuerher Muhummid. [From whom he second-handed much of his evil and most of his methodology]

That aside, even after granting him Jewish roots -- how would you account for the forty-odd million Christians and other goyim he also knocked off?

Multiple personalities and/or dissociative identity disorder, perhaps?

No coincidence -- both straight-line descend from the same manifestation of evil.

That rooted in the insane moon-rock-walloping pagan-heathen pirate pedophile and false-fuerher, Muhummid.
