Islam Islam 101 Islam Debate Islamic anti-Semitism

ABOUT LASSANA BATHILY THE SUPPOSED MUSLIM HERO IN THE PARIS KOSHER STORE……..

Daniel hits the nail on the head.

It doesn’t mean that Islam isn’t inherently anti-Semitic. There is no question that it is.

The reason we respect people like Schindler is not just because they were heroes, but because they defied their society and culture to do the right thing.

Schindler Didn’t Disprove Nazi Anti-Semitism, Lassana Bathily Doesn’t Disprove Islamic Anti-Semitism

Oskar Schindler was a member of the Nazi Party who saved over a thousand Jews. He wasn’t the only one. Major Karl Plagge, an early Nazi Party member, never subscribed to its racial theories and worked to save Jews. So was Georg Ferdinand Duckwitz, whose information helped save the lives of many of Denmark’s Jews.

There were in fact a number of members of the Nazi Party who saved Jews. They were however vastly outnumbered by the number of Nazis who killed Jews.

Citing Schindler or Plagge, who liked much of the Nazi agenda, but didn’t like the killing Jews part of it, does not make Nazism good. It doesn’t disprove the existence of genocidal Nazi anti-Semitism.

It shows that people are individuals and that the members of any ideology include people who are good and who will even take heroic risks despite otherwise subscribing to a thoroughly evil ideology.

In other words, people are complicated.

If Lassana Bathily, the Muslim worker who reportedly saved a number of Jews during the Muslim attack on a Kosher supermarket, did everything he reportedly did, then he’s a hero.

He’s a hero just like Schindler or Plagge were heroes. It doesn’t mean that a genocidal Islamic anti-Semitism that has been killing Jews for over a thousand years no longer exists.
