Jews drink the blood of Muslims and believe that God wants Jews to hate
Muslims, according to a Hamas TV skit. Performed before a live audience at the
Islamic University in Gaza, the segment features actors playing a father and
son, in traditional Hasidic Jewish garb, discussing their God mandated hatred of
Muslims.
The skit opens as the father instructs: “We Jews hate the Muslims, we want
to kill the Muslims, we Jews want to drink the blood of Muslims.” It is later
explained that Jews wash their hands before prayer, not with water, but with
Muslims’ blood: “We have to wash our hands with the blood of Muslims.”
Blood libels were a tragic part of Jewish history, as Jews were accused of
using the blood of non-Jews for ritual purposes, especially the baking of Matzah
for Passover. Blood libels created deep hatred and were an effective trigger for
numerous pogroms and the murder of thousands. The Hamas accusation that
Jews drink Muslim blood comes the week before Passover, the anniversary of
many horrific blood libels.
Following is the full Transcript from Al-Aqsa TV (Hamas), April 3, 2009.
