"Mein Kampf" is anti-Semtic, and so is the Qur'an

Islam's history is "full of generous and kind attitude of Muslims after conquering." - quoting Mansoor. Oh.

I'd like to ask you a question, Mansoor, are you familiar with Hitler's ideology? Persecution of all Jews. To one day rule the world.

So you're saying, because Hitler wasn't satisfied with just the persecution of Jews, and began to exterminate them, Hitler was just sooo awful. The death camps came AFTER the persecution, when Hitler had gained enough power.

One aim and practice of Islam is the persecution of all Jews. Jews are "pigs" according to hundreds of thousands of Muslims. Israel should be removed from the map.

"Mein Kampf", in German, means "my struggle, my fight". "Jihad" translates to "my struggle, my fight". Coinsidence? Maybe. That would be a stretch.

But one thing that "Mein Kampf" and the Qur'an do have in common - actual doctrines instructing the persecution of the Jew. And overwhelmingly totalitarian ideologies - one based on racial "supremacy", one based on religious "supremacy". Hitler carried out extermination because he could. Islam doesn't use gas chambers or death camps. But they do promise eternity in Paradise for those who kill. Hitler didn't think of that one.
