Origin of evil

[RobertE]

You expect facts to get in his way?

Judging from his responses in the thread, unfortunately, I do.

Am I getting the impression that Harris is a student of Islam in that he is a convert? I have just read the whole of this thread and he seems to have gone out of his way to somehow disredit the Jews.

He's got some affiliation with Islam. But don't let that fool you. Antisemites like him come in all shapes and colours. Nationalists, Revisionists, Christians, Muslims. Everything's included. It's more rare with Palestinians. I don't mean the religious antisemitism but the ethnic one. They are mostly aware that they're a semite people too. So they may go on about destroying Israel, but they're not out to destroy the jews Hitler style. It would mean that their own hide is on the line too.

The way he is actually talking, I do get the impression that he is a muslim-convert, and he probably was a Christian at some time too. I have seen that for myself where my girlfriends nephew talks negatively about the Jews, to the point that I just go out and take a walk. It is his opinion and, rightly or wrongly he is entitled to it. As for the Palestinians, they are semites as you stated, but again, the one thing that I don't like to hear is the typical "bombardement of Palestine", by those in Islam, and they fail to speak up about Palestinian refugees in Syria who are treated nearly as bad.
