Extremist Persecution: The Rest of Us Come Next by Nils A. Haug


Gatestone Institute

  • "Anti-Zionism is the demand that Israel cease to exist as a Jewish state," writes columnist Luke Tress. It is the existence of Israel – not settlements or other pretexts – that underlies most of the conflict between Israel and radical Islamists in the Middle East. Some countries in the area, such as Qatar and Turkey, appear less interested in "peace and prosperity" than in the elimination of Israel.

  • In Western societies, anti-Zionism seems to be the "politically correct" root of social conflict wherever Islamists have settled. Unfortunately, as these Western societies have yet to find out, the wish to eliminate "undesirables" is not limited to Israel and Jews, but extends to Christians and all other "infidels" – including many Muslims not considered the "right" kind of Muslim... In Nigeria, Islamists have reportedly murdered more than 52,000 Christians just since 2009 -- with the additional incentive of then being able to seize their land. To various degrees, much of Western civilization is engulfed in this grave issue of "replacement."

  • "Wherever individuals are persecuted because of their race, religion, gender, or political views, that place must, at that moment, become the center of the universe." — The late Elie Wiesel, Nobel Peace Prize laureate, December 10, 1986.

A small reminder: Jews were expelled from England during the decade of 1290; from France in the 1390s; from Spain in the 1490s; from Sicily in the late 1400s; from Portugal in the 1500s; Ukraine in the 1640s; Russia in the 1880s; Germany in the 1930s; and various Arab countries in the 1940s to 1960s.
