Fox News reports that pro-Palestinian protesters at a rally in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, were heard "calling for the extermination of Israel — and of Jews. ...[A]s the protest continued and crowds grew, one woman in a hijab began to shout curses and slurs that shocked Jewish activists in the city, which has a sizable Jewish population. 'Go back to the oven,' she shouted, calling for the counter-protesters to die in the manner that the Nazis used to exterminate Jews during the Holocaust. 'You need a big oven, that's what you need,' she yelled. Millions of Jews were gassed and burned in crematoria throughout Europe during Adolf Hitler's rule of Germany. The protest organizers, asked to comment on the woman's overt call for Jewish extermination, said she was 'insensitive' but refused to condemn her statement."
Emmanuel Lopez helped plan the event which was one of many sponsored nationwide on Dec. 30 by the ANSWER (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism ) Coalition. Fox News reports that "Lopez, a state coordinator for ANSWER, admitted there is a problem with anti-Semitism within his organization's ranks. But then he went on to call the supporters of Israel across the street 'barbaric, racist' Zionist terrorists." Lopez is further quoted as saying that "Zionism in general is a barbaric, racist movement that really is the cause of the situation in the entire Middle East."
Fox News further writes that the Muslim woman yelling about ovens "wasn't the only protester who raised hackles that day. Other demonstrators held signs that said 'Nuke Israel,' and a number made comparisons to the Holocaust, accusing Israel of genocide in Gaza."
These are not Muslim protesters in Riyadh, Cairo, or Teheran. They are not even Muslim protesters in Copenhagen, Paris, or London. They are Muslims in Fort Lauderdale yelling about putting Jews in ovens and bearing signs calling for the nuclear annihalation of Israel. It should send a chill down every American spine that there are Muslims within our own country, in Fort Lauderdale of all places, that would call for the extermination of the Jewish people.
In light of news of Muslims in Fort Lauderdale comparing Israel to the Third Reich while at the same time calling for a nuclear holocaust against Israel and for Jews to go back to the ovens, the following article by Jonah Goldberg is certainly worth reading: http://townhall.com/columnists/JonahGoldberg/2009/01/07/who_are_the_real_nazis
Just in case you were wondering, pro-Hamas Muslim protesters in Toronto are no different than those in Fort Lauderdale. When a journalist asks a protester to explain why he thinks Hitler "did not do a good job" the protester responds with a smack. It should come as no surprise that violence keeps erupting at these pro-Hamas demonstrations.
