Is he mad?

[NotAllThere]

He's neither mad nor uneducated. He's just received the standard, orthodox education of an Islamic country - that the Protocols of Zion are true, the world is run by a Jewish conspiracy, the holocaust is a hoax, and Israel must be destroyed.

Islam is supposedly a later revelation of God than Christianity and Judaism, and therefore superior in every way. So the theory goes that Allah is unhappy with Muslims, and has allowed the establishment of the state of Israel as a reproach. The way to get back into Allah's good books, is therefore to work towards the annihilation of Israel.

It's interesting that Islamic civilization was way ahead of European civilization 600 years ago. Now it seems to be in decline - while Europe went through the enlightenment, the east seems to have gone through a benightedment.
