Atrocities, atrocities and more atrocities. Historical evidence is in abundance on the suffering of Jewish people by those identifying as followers of Islam. On review of this horrific diary one notices the absence of barbarities committed by Palestinians. And this is simply because there was no nationality, tribe, race, people nor culture as the Palestinians until they were invented as an identity in the 1960’s.
Each tragic event identified caused human suffering of epic proportions to sons and daughters; brothers and sisters and mothers and fathers. Families wiped out simply because they were adherents to a religion different to those who perpetrated the atrocities. People, children, human beings butchered by a section of Muslims. Educate me and convince me if hundreds of years after the first atrocity, what has changed. The two Palestinian charters of 1868 and 1988 taught to every Palestinian child both demand extermination of Jews. And the global majority is sympathetic to the Palestinian cause.
May I apologize for the lack of accreditation to the individuals who originally composed this list and to those who have sent me amendments and updates as there are too many to mention and unfortunately, I have lost the original posts sent to me some years ago.
When one reviews the conflicts still being waged in the name of Islam against Christians in the Sahel and Central Africa as well as the internal Islamic wars raging in Arab countries, we must surely recognize that political or radical Islam is not a religion of peace.

We end at 1967 with the creation of the Palestinians and their charters of 1968 and 1988 commanding extermination of the Jewish people by Jihad. So far, they have failed miserably in achieving their objectives but have successfully indoctrinated their children with Nazi ideology.
As Golda Meir said, there will never be peace between Israel and the Palestinians until they, the Palestinians learn to love their children more than they hate Jews.
Editorial note:
- Amin al-Husseini or Amin al-Husayni was a Palestinian Arab nationalist and Muslim leader in Mandatory Palestine. Here is a news site report giving details of meeting between Amin al-Husseini and Adolf Hitler.
