Syriens Mufti: "Der Islam befiehlt uns, das Judentum zu schützen"

Syria's foremost Muslim leader declared on Tuesday that Islam commands its followers to protect Judaism, according to Army Radio. "If the Prophet Mohammed had asked me to deem Christians or Jews heretics, I would have deemed Mohammed himself a heretic," Sheikh Ahmed Hassoun, the Mufti of Syria, was quoted as telling a delegation of American academics visiting Damascus. Hassoun, the leader of Syria's majority Sunni Muslim community, also told the delegates that Islam was a religion of peace, adding: "If Mohammed had commanded us to kill people, I would have told him he was not a prophet."

Die israelische Ha´aretz berichtet.

Wird nichts am Hass auf Muslime ändern. Die Massenmedien werden nicht darüber berichten, für die Islamophoben ist es Taqyya.
