Arabic Video Shows Three-Year-Old Who Says Jews are “Apes and Pigs”
It’s videos like this that make me lose all hope for the world. Ex-Christian.Net is hosting a scary, scary clip in which a Muslim woman "interviews" a three-year-old named Basmallah. Asked whether or not she likes Jews, Basmallah says "No". When asked why, she responds with "Because" – a typical three-year-old’s reply, which is both tender and heartbreaking given what she’s going to say next. When the interviewer presses her by asking, "Because they are what?", the girl replies after only a moment’s hesitation: "They are apes and pigs."
The girl is then prompted to recite a story she’s been taught about how a Jewish woman attempted to poison Mohammed, but God resurrected the lamb he was about to eat and made Mohammed privvy to the Jewess’ wicked ways. Basmallah knows enough of this tale to know that Mohammed then vowed to kill his attempted poisoner. (Actually, according to many historians, the poison killed Mohammed three years later. But, hey – who needs facts when you have religion?) The broadcast ends with a chilling reminder about how important it is to teach this hate to all good little future bomb detonators.
To the parents of Basmallah, and any other parent who raises their child in this despicable manner: You think you’re being honorable and holy and serving your God. You’re not. You’re making God weep. If there is a Hell, please give the Devil my kind regards.
To the fundamentalist parents of America – whether Christian, Muslim, Branch Davidian, or what have you: Ask yourself how much of your own parenting is reflected in this.
(Note: The video is taken straight from Iqra TV in Saudi Arabia, and is made available to the English-speaking world through Memri TV. Memri also has a full transcript of the broadcast.)
