Chechnya mufti: Jews are the 'enemies of Islam,' spreading atheism and satanism
Chechnya's supreme mufti, Salah Mezhiev, said that Jews were the enemies of Islam and were spreading Atheism and Satanism, according to Russian media outlets, leading Russian Chief Rabbi Berel Lazar to call on Muslim Russian leaders to disassociate from Mezhiev's remarks.
Grozny Inform state news agency reported last Saturday that during the October 20 episode of the talk show "Chechen History, War and Peace," Mezhiev allegedly addressed apostasy and blamed part of the phenomenon on the Jewish people.
"The enemies of Allah, the Jews and the movements they spawned, such as atheism, have existed for ages," Mezhiev said, according to Grozny Inform. "And no matter where it happens — in the Arab world or in Europe — there are always pseudo-Orientalists spreading lies. If you listen to the topics they raise and the questions they ask, it becomes clear: The source of their ideas is Satanism."

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
