One of the best ways the greedy rich does to keep their wealth and their corrupt world is to say the answer to economic problems is Job creation.
Let me give you examples how Job creation is not the answer:
1- You can create meaningless jobs. One of the jokes was to give the employers unnecessary jobs like digging with table forks or destructive jobs like destroying the pyramids and rebuild them several times.
2- Jobs related to wars industry or arms are very destructive and destroy our resources.
3- Since income comes from capital or labor the rich would not let the poor touch the capital that they own and we are left by labor. The problem is the capital is coward and economic recessions it hide away from creating jobs.
4- How people who are worn out working for long years and their back and joints are damaged from hard labour for years and you make them work hard again at 50 years old or more. Do not they deserve better ideas.
5- The Jobs even if available wold not make you rich but just able to get by or delay paying all your debts.
6- The rich are making money of the poor by taking their income by lending them with usury to most of what they would need for big things in life like cars, houses, student loans and so forth. Thus the income of labour is sucked quickly to the income of capital that the rich own.
See my moral Utopia project that as a naive person New World Order (Moral Utopia Project) I was offering to the west and their corrupt corporations. It does not only solve most economic problems but make most people have income from both capital and labour. Of course many of the jealous American politicians would not let you know me for their own evil hearts and for their connections with the evil empire that control the world. They will look to you as dissent nice people and in fact they are wolves in sheep's cloths.
Some of the Jews God curse them who owns many of these corporations are oppressing me to talk public to people for their greed and envy. They hide behind some politicians and oppress me and continue their evil control of the world. The good Jews are not even allowed to talk to me.

Can a Prophet have a Temper?
By: Maged Taman
True that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said the I am not sent to spell curse on people he did that like all the prophets they do not curse people until the people stood against them oppress them and defy God's words. In fact before God wrath come in people the prophets would curse their people.
Jesus (PBUH) used to curse some of the Jews who were wicked as well David did the same. Actually many of the Hebrow prophets cursed some of the Jews all over the old testament.
لُعِنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ مِن بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى لِسَانِ دَاوُودَ وَعِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ ذَلِكَ بِمَا عَصَوا وَّكَانُواْ يَعْتَدُونَ (5:78)
5:78 (Picktall) Those of the children of Israel who went astray were cursed by the tongue of David, and of Jesus, son of Mary. That was because they rebelled and used to transgress.
God curse in the Quran is plain and strong to people who disobeyed him and stood against his messages:
وَقَالُواْ قُلُوبُنَا غُلْفٌ بَل لَّعَنَهُمُ اللَّه بِكُفْرِهِمْ فَقَلِيلاً مَّا يُؤْمِنُونَ (2:88)
2:88 (Picktall) And they say: Our hearts are hardened. Nay, but Allah hath cursed them for their unbelief. Little is that which they believe. -
وَلَمَّا جَاءهُمْ كِتَابٌ مِّنْ عِندِ اللّهِ مُصَدِّقٌ لِّمَا مَعَهُمْ وَكَانُواْ مِن قَبْلُ يَسْتَفْتِحُونَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ فَلَمَّا جَاءهُم مَّا عَرَفُواْ كَفَرُواْ بِهِ فَلَعْنَةُ اللَّه عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ (2:89)
2:89 (Picktall) And when there cometh unto them a Scripture from Allah, confirming that in their possession though before that they were asking for a signal triumph over those who disbelieved and when there cometh unto them that which they know (to be the Truth) they disbelieve therein. The curse of Allah is on disbelievers. -
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَكْتُمُونَ مَا أَنزَلْنَا مِنَ الْبَيِّنَاتِ وَالْهُدَى مِن بَعْدِ مَا بَيَّنَّاهُ لِلنَّاسِ فِي الْكِتَابِ أُولَـئِكَ يَلعَنُهُمُ اللّهُ وَيَلْعَنُهُمُ اللَّاعِنُونَ (2:159)
2:159 (Picktall) Those who hide the proofs and the guidance which We revealed, after We had made it clear in the Scripture: such are accursed of Allah and accursed of those who have the power to curse. -
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا وَمَاتُوا وَهُمْ كُفَّارٌ أُولَئِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ لَعْنَةُ اللّهِ وَالْمَلآئِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ (2:161)
2:161 (Picktall) Lo! those who disbelieve, and die while they are disbelievers; on them is the curse of Allah and of angels and of men combined. -
أُوْلَـئِكَ جَزَآؤُهُمْ أَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ لَعْنَةَ اللّهِ وَالْمَلآئِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ (3:87)
3:87 (Picktall) As for such, their guerdon is that on them rests the curse of Allah and of angels and of men combined. -
مِّنَ الَّذِينَ هَادُواْ يُحَرِّفُونَ الْكَلِمَ عَن مَّوَاضِعِهِ وَيَقُولُونَ سَمِعْنَا وَعَصَيْنَا وَاسْمَعْ غَيْرَ مُسْمَعٍ وَرَاعِنَا لَيًّا بِأَلْسِنَتِهِمْ وَطَعْنًا فِي الدِّينِ وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ قَالُواْ سَمِعْنَا وَأَطَعْنَا وَاسْمَعْ وَانظُرْنَا لَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَّهُمْ وَأَقْوَمَ وَلَكِن لَّعَنَهُمُ اللّهُ بِكُفْرِهِمْ فَلاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ إِلاَّ قَلِيلاً (4:46)
4:46 (Picktall) Some of those who are Jews change words from their context and say: "We hear and disobey; hear thou as one who heareth not" and "Listen to us!" distorting with their tongues and slandering religion. If they had said: "We hear and we obey; hear thou, and look at us" it had been better for them, and more upright. But Allah hath cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not, save a few.
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ الْكِتَابَ آمِنُواْ بِمَا نَزَّلْنَا مُصَدِّقًا لِّمَا مَعَكُم مِّن قَبْلِ أَن نَّطْمِسَ وُجُوهًا فَنَرُدَّهَا عَلَى أَدْبَارِهَا أَوْ نَلْعَنَهُمْ كَمَا لَعَنَّا أَصْحَابَ السَّبْتِ وَكَانَ أَمْرُ اللّهِ مَفْعُولاً (4:47)
4:47 (Picktall) O ye unto whom the Scripture hath been given! Believe in what We have revealed concerning that which ye possess, before We destroy countenances so as to confound them, or curse them as We cursed the Sabbath breakers (of old time). The commandment of Allah is always executed. -
أُوْلَـئِكَ الَّذِينَ لَعَنَهُمُ اللّهُ وَمَن يَلْعَنِ اللّهُ فَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُ نَصِيرًا (4:52)
4:52 (Picktall) Those are they whom Allah hath cursed, and he whom Allah hath cursed, thou (O Muhammad) wilt find for him no helper.
Thus the curse of God and his prophets to their people is not injustice but God and his prophets they do that after it become very clear to them that they just have wickedness in their hearts. When the prophets give up on their people then God takes over:
كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ وَالْأَحْزَابُ مِن بَعْدِهِمْ وَهَمَّتْ كُلُّ أُمَّةٍ بِرَسُولِهِمْ لِيَأْخُذُوهُ وَجَادَلُوا بِالْبَاطِلِ لِيُدْحِضُوا بِهِ الْحَقَّ فَأَخَذْتُهُمْ فَكَيْفَ كَانَ عِقَابِ (40:5)
40:5 (Picktall) The folk of noah and the factions after them denied (their messengers) before these, and every nation purposed to seize their messenger and argued falsely, (thinking) thereby to refute the Truth. Then I seized them, and how (awful) was My punishment.
True that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said the I am not sent to spell curse on people he did that like all the prophets they do not curse people until the people stood against them oppress them and defy God's words. In fact before God wrath come in people the prophets would curse their people.

Swiss antagonist of minarets embraces Islam
From: The Nation
RENOWNED Swiss politician Daniel Streich, who rose to fame for his campaign against minarets of mosques, has embraced Islam.A member of the Swiss People’s Party (SVP) and a well-known politician, Daniel Streich was the first man who had launched a drive for imposition of ban on mosques minarets, and to lock the mosques in Switzerland.
The proclamation of Streich’s conversion to Islam has created furore in Swiss politics, besides causing a tremor for those who supported ban on construction of mosques minarets. Streich propagated his anti-Islamic movement far and wide in the country, sowed seeds of indignation and scorn for Islam among the people, and paved way for public opinion against pulpits and minarets of mosques. But now Streich has become a soldier of Islam.
His anti-Islam thoughts finally brought him so close to this religion that he embraced Islam. He is ashamed of his doings now and desires to construct the most beautiful mosque of Europe in Switzerland.The most interesting thing in this regard is that at present there are four mosques in Switzerland and Streich wants to lay the foundation for the fifth one. He wishes to seek absolution of his sin of proliferating venom against Islam.
He is thinking of a movement contrary to his previous one to promote religious tolerance and peaceful cooperative living, in spite of the fact that ban on mosques minarets has gained a legal status. This is the greatest quality of Islam that it comes up with even greater vigour, when it is faced with confrontation.
Abdul Majeed Aldai, the president of OPI, an NGO, working for the welfare of Muslims, says that Europeans have a great desire to know about Islam. Some of them want to know about the relationship between Islam and terrorism; same was the case with Streich. During his confrontation, Streich studied the Holy Quran and started understanding Islam.
He wished to be hard to Islam, but the outcome was otherwise. Aldai further says. Recently the question of ban on minarets was put to voting in Switzerland, wherein the Swiss nationals gave the issue a legal status.

One of the miracle of Islam how many of the enemies of Islam became the best Muslims. This paradox reflects few things:
1- Islam was never about prophet Muhammad or Muslims but about God. Once people submit to God Muslims feel very happy and forget all the animosities or wickedness they did against Islam.
2- It shows you how God guide people whenever he wants, they just have to be sincere.
3- Muslims do not wane in calling people to Islam even their enemies, but they observe their tactics. One of them The evil Jews and disbelievers would do at time of the prophet they plan to become Muslims and then quit in few days so they can confuse Muslims and the reality is they were confusing themselves and will get great punishment from God.
4- This life we have now is short and pleasures or sufferings are very minimal compared by eternity. Thus most of wise people will buy their eternity and not to loose it for few material things.
5- There is no really big difference between Islam and Judaism or Christianity if we follow sincerely God they are about the same. The evil power are united to keep the status quo of the rich and corrupt and the rich families.
6- It is amazing how people who were strong against Islam become the most strong to stand for Islam. Omar Ben Al Khateib was about to kill the prophet and became the strongest Muslim to defend and protect him. The army leaders Khalid ben Al Walid and Amer Ben Al as were used to be the best military leaders against Muslims and became the best to defend Islam.
Thus to all who care about finding God and their eternity examine the Quran and consider much your eternity. There are no coincidences there but a great creator who communicated with humans over ages. To whom we will return again.

Jewish Hatred Against Jesus Christ
From:www.truthinhistory.org
Was there an organized Jewish conspiracy against the life and ministry of our Savior - the Lord Jesus Christ? Let the Scriptures speak for themselves!
". . . of the Jews: Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sin alway: For the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost."
I Thessalonians 2:14-16
In the earthly life and ministry of our Lord, He encountered much opposition as He traveled throughout the ancient land of Palestine in doing the work that His Father sent Him to do. During the first century the land of Palestine where Jesus lived and ministered was divided into three Roman provinces. They were Galilee to the north where Jesus lived as a child and began His ministry; Samaria located in central Palestine where He ministered to the woman at the well in John chapter 4; and Judea to the south where He encountered most of His opposition from the leadership of the Jewish nation and was eventually illegally tried, falsely convicted and crucified as a result of the scheming efforts of the Jews and their manipulation of the Roman civil authorities.
In the Gospel of John the Apostle records the masterful discourse of Jesus that He gave concerning His equality with God and His manifestation as being the living bread sent down from heaven (chapters 5-6). After giving this discourse and seeing the open anger of the Jews in response to His message, He left Judea where Jewish Phariseeism was in total control, and returned to Galilee which offered Him more personal safety. John records:
"After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: For He would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill Him."
(7:1, 11:53-54)
The Jewish leadership, which included Scribes, Pharisees, Sadducees, Chief Priests and the Sanhedrin heckled and taunted the Lord Jesus as He conducted His teaching and healing ministry among the people. Their purpose was to catch Him in heresy and blasphemy and eventually use it as evidence against Him at His trial (Luke 20:19-26).
"... of the Jews: Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sin alway: For the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost."

The Talmud
The Talmud is a vast literary work written by Jewish Rabbis that contains civil and religious law. It is not a part of the inspired sacred Scripture. The Palestinian Talmud was written in the 3rd century AD, while the Babylonian Talmud was written around 500 AD. It contains discussions concerning every aspect of Jewish life and thought. The Talmud was written by Jewish Rabbis who were men of 'perverse minds and destitute of the truth'.
Concerning the names of Jesus, the Talmud refers to Him as:
Immach Schemo Vezikro which means, "May His name and memory be blotted out."
Otho Isch = "That man"
Peloni = "A certain one"
Naggar Bar Naggar = "The carpenter son of a carpenter"
Ben Charsch etaim = "The son of a wood worker"
Talui = "The one who was hanged"
Concerning Christ Himself, the Talmud accuses Him of being:
Illegitimate
Possessed by the soul of Esau and being Esau himself.
A fool and insane
A conjurer and a magician
An idolater
A seducer
Crucified For His crimes
Buried in Hell
Wrongfully worshipped
An idol
The Talmud condemns the teaching of Christ as follows:
Falsehood

No doubt there are some good Jews, but a lot of them are wicked. The Americans were angry about the war with Iraq since some of the Jews planed it not for love to free Muslims but to protect Israel from crazy Saddam and to stand to Iran and work with the imperial power of the world to control the oil. Many bad feelings about the Jews started though not widely expressed since the Jews control the media and intimidate the Christians.
At that time I was very naive I tried to make peace between the Jews and Christians and was looking for peaceful world. I learnt from my experience that they are wicked people and actually went after me to intimidate me to appease the Arab tyrants. They never come to you directly but know how to get to incite or pay others to go after me.
I found out their plan is clear to support the tyrant Arabs from under the ground without us Muslims realize and create to you false hope through Bush or Obama. The fact is they hated both Islam and Christianity and are planning wars to weaken both so they can prepare the earth for their own Jewish Messiah who is in fact the Antichrist.
There is no little hope to Muslims while some of the wicked Jews control the world and pay a lot to make Islam looks bad in America and make the public opinion against Islam.
It is time to Muslims and Christians with the good Jewish to stand to the wicked Jews. The radicalization of the Muslim world is created by unjust policies mainly by the wicked Jews.
Open statement to the wicked Jews if you ever come against me again like you did in the past a lot of the Muslim people will get you. Since I was the nice guy who was trying to make peace for you and make Arab accept you in the Middle East and abroad. But you are the typical Judas who betrayed Christ. The fact is you are the enemies of God as he mentioned in the Quran a fact that took me few years to realize it.
I know you do not care since Jesus was the nicest human and you went after him. Some of you always thought they are better than God. See the anti-Semitism about the bad Jews in both the Quran and the Bible. You see also in the Quran how God praised the good Jews. The victory will be ultimately to the good Christians and Muslims who will be happily awaiting Jesus descent in few years.
Was there an organized Jewish conspiracy against the life and ministry of our Savior - the Lord Jesus Christ? Let the Scriptures speak for themselves!
". . . of the Jews: Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sin alway: For the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost."
I Thessalonians 2:14-16
In the earthly life and ministry of our Lord, He encountered much opposition as He traveled throughout the ancient land of Palestine in doing the work that His Father sent Him to do. During the first century the land of Palestine where Jesus lived and ministered was divided into three Roman provinces. They were Galilee to the north where Jesus lived as a child and began His ministry; Samaria located in central Palestine where He ministered to the woman at the well in John chapter 4; and Judea to the south where He encountered most of His opposition from the leadership of the Jewish nation and was eventually illegally tried, falsely convicted and crucified as a result of the scheming efforts of the Jews and their manipulation of the Roman civil authorities.
In the Gospel of John the Apostle records the masterful discourse of Jesus that He gave concerning His equality with God and His manifestation as being the living bread sent down from heaven (chapters 5-6). After giving this discourse and seeing the open anger of the Jews in response to His message, He left Judea where Jewish Phariseeism was in total control, and returned to Galilee which offered Him more personal safety. John records:
"After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: For He would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill Him."
(7:1, 11:53-54)
The Jewish leadership, which included Scribes, Pharisees, Sadducees, Chief Priests and the Sanhedrin heckled and taunted the Lord Jesus as He conducted His teaching and healing ministry among the people. Their purpose was to catch Him in heresy and blasphemy and eventually use it as evidence against Him at His trial (Luke 20:19-26).
"... of the Jews: Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sin alway: For the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost."

Do not Worry About the Evil Jews
By: Maged Taman
As you see despite me attacking the bad Jews they would not try to expel me from America. Since if they do not want the media to be on me and people may think I am Al Mahdi Al Muntazer. They can not grab me to the court since I will be able to show their crimes in the court. All they will do is fighting me in secret so they can make my life miserable or destroy me. The problem is a lot of good Christians will not allow them to do that. They will not like to see Jesus (10 times better than me) crucified again in front of their eyes.
Going back to the evil Jews. While most of us are suffering from bad economy and bad economic polices including a lot of Americans and regular Jews, and me who have to work every day, the wicked Jews and their allies particularly many politicians are doing very well, do not worry about them. Obama even got a lot of money for his book and my book has been oppressed by his corrupted regime. I have to submit to them to get my money, which I will never do.
I am not a guy who live for money but principals. That is why I stood to the evil powers in the world and I do not regret that. Some people close to me are affected much, God reward them but many prophets suffered for their cause. Someone has to do it as we say.
When the wall street corrupt guys many of them are the evil Jews bankrupted us the politicians very nicely gave them our money. The nice performance in the congress they try to show anger about that in order to silent the American people while the money is paid to them in full. In privacy all those guys go for their parties at night and play the same game next day.
Were the good Jews fit in that. They are intimidated by the evil Jews that if you do not follow them all the way through you are a traitor. The good Jews with good Christians and good Muslims will not let the evil Jews control the world since they did very bad job and continue to drown us while they are swimming in the surface of water.
We are the American people have to change our destiny. Do not let them steal our message again. They will use all tactics to suppress us. Satan will never give up without a struggle. Did we see him welcome Jesus (PBUH) in his first coming why do you think he will do that in his second coming.

The Crimes of The Evil Jews in The World
By: Maged Taman
Let me be clear there are very good Jews and are the best of the people. However, there are criminal and evil Jews. Unfortunately they are the one who control the world now. Let me mention to you some of their crimes:
1- Most of the wars against the Jews in the Middle East they fueled it. Sadat did not fight them until he had no option left to him. True there is some obsession with the Jews which I hated but they were not the lamb for sure, they were the wolf who would plan for destruction of others. Look at my early writings I would try to make us forgive them and put good word about them for the sake of peace and our freedom.
2- They oppressed the Palestinians and play the victims game. See their merciless war against people who do not even have anything to defend themselves. True few rockets were sent over Israel and they could have retaliated in small scale, not in such brutality.
3- They took some of the Christians right who are good people by any measures for a ride to support them in everything but they do not understand prophecies right.True the Jews were the chosen people, but not any more. For a lot of Christians and Muslims they will have a laugh that God will redeem the world for them when most of the wars were ignited by them and most of the imperial adventures they owned. Great Jews like Noam Chomsky have talked about the Zionist imperialism. No doubt there are Jews that are the best of us but not those who control the world now. I suspect they will have great role in paving the way to Jesus Second Coming.
4- The wicked Jews planned the war between Iraq and Iran that extended for 8 years.
5- 9/11 is planned by them so they can invade Iraq and take over the oil and stand up to Iran.
6- Meanwhile they protect the tyrant regimes like Saudi and Egypt.
7- In the war of Iraq invasion they would blast a masque of Shia so they attack Sunni or blast a masque for Sunni so they attack Shia.
8- The evil Jews corrupted and bankrupted America to clear the way of the Antichrist and make the center of world control through Jerusalem. Neither Muslims nor Christians will accept any messiah but Jesus Peace Be Upon Him.
9- A lot of Americans particularly in the military and veterans knew now they were fighting for imperial evil Jews and not for Christ.
10- A lot of Christians are returning now to their religion and their Christ who was persecuted and oppressed by the evil Jews, God curse them. Jesus (PBUH) did the same he cursed them.

Dalal (error, confusion...) in Quran
By: Maged Taman
Dalal or error is opposite of guidance when used in the Quran. Where guidance is following God inspired words Dalal is following the opposite direction. Wandering, confusion and errors are other words to explain dalal but in general is going astray from God path.
1- Muhammad (PBUH) was in wander before he received God inspiration: Muhammad was like most of us was trying to make sense of the world. For few years he would go to a cave in the mountain think about God and religion. He was not a scholar in religions but was wandering like us about God and the universe. God chose him among us billions of people to reveal himself like he did to Abraham and other prophets. God was the one and not Muhammad who guided him.
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَالًّا فَهَدَى (93:7)
93:7 (Picktall) Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee)?
2- Same thing people around Muhammad (PBUH) were in dalal until Muhammad recited to them God's revelation:
هُوَ الَّذِي بَعَثَ فِي الْأُمِّيِّينَ رَسُولًا مِّنْهُمْ يَتْلُو عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتِهِ وَيُزَكِّيهِمْ وَيُعَلِّمُهُمُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحِكْمَةَ وَإِن كَانُوا مِن قَبْلُ لَفِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ (62:2)
62:2 (Picktall) He it is Who hath sent among the unlettered ones a messenger of their own, to recite unto them His revelations and to make them grow, and to teach them the Scripture and Wisdom, though heretofore they were indeed in error manifest,
3- Those who did not answer God revelation are in Dalal:
وَمَن لَّا يُجِبْ دَاعِيَ اللَّهِ فَلَيْسَ بِمُعْجِزٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ مِن دُونِهِ أَولِيَاء أُوْلَئِكَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ (46:32)
46:32 (Picktall) And whoso respondeth not to Allah's summoner he can nowise escape in the earth, and ye (can find) no protecting friends instead of Him. Such are in error manifest.
4- Their Dalal is the work of their hearts and minds: they made their ears deaf and eyes blind to his revelation.
أَفَأَنتَ تُسْمِعُ الصُّمَّ أَوْ تَهْدِي الْعُمْيَ وَمَن كَانَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ (43:40)
43:40 (Picktall) Canst thou (Muhammad) make the deaf to hear, or canst thou guide the blind or him who is in error manifest?
5- As God help us when we want guidance he extend the dalal of the wicked:
قُلْ مَن كَانَ فِي الضَّلَالَةِ فَلْيَمْدُدْ لَهُ الرَّحْمَنُ مَدًّا حَتَّى إِذَا رَأَوْا مَا يُوعَدُونَ إِمَّا الْعَذَابَ وَإِمَّا السَّاعَةَ فَسَيَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ هُوَ شَرٌّ مَّكَانًا وَأَضْعَفُ جُندًا (19:75) 19:75 (Picktall) Say: As for him who is in error, the Beneficent will verily prolong his span of life until, when they behold that which they were promised, whether it be punishment (in the world), or Hour (of Doom), they will know who is worse in position and who is weaker as an army.
أَفَمَن شَرَحَ اللَّهُ صَدْرَهُ لِلْإِسْلَامِ فَهُوَ عَلَى نُورٍ مِّن رَّبِّهِ فَوَيْلٌ لِّلْقَاسِيَةِ قُلُوبُهُم مِّن ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ أُوْلَئِكَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ (39:22)
39:22 (Picktall) Is he whose bosom Allah hath expanded for the Surrender (unto Him), so that he followeth a light from His Lord, (as he who disbelieveth)? Then woe unto those whose hearts are hardened against remembrance of Allah. Such are in plain error.
6- They commonly choose dalal for material gain which is a bad deal if one to think trade:
أُوْلَـئِكَ الَّذِينَ اشْتَرُوُاْ الضَّلاَلَةَ بِالْهُدَى فَمَا رَبِحَت تِّجَارَتُهُمْ وَمَا كَانُواْ مُهْتَدِينَ (2:16)
2:16 (Picktall) These are they who purchase error at the price of guidance, so their commerce doth not prosper, neither are they guided. -
أُولَـئِكَ الَّذِينَ اشْتَرَوُاْ الضَّلاَلَةَ بِالْهُدَى وَالْعَذَابَ بِالْمَغْفِرَةِ فَمَآ أَصْبَرَهُمْ عَلَى النَّارِ (2:175)
2:175 (Picktall) Those are they who purchase error at the price of guidance, and torment at the price of pardon. How constant are they in their strife to reach the Fire! -
7- They call others besides God those who are not of help or harm to them which is severe dalal:
يَدْعُو مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ مَا لَا يَضُرُّهُ وَمَا لَا يَنفَعُهُ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الضَّلَالُ الْبَعِيدُ (22:12)
22:12 (Picktall) He calleth, beside Allah, unto that which hurteth him not nor benefiteth him. That is the far error.
هَذَا خَلْقُ اللَّهِ فَأَرُونِي مَاذَا خَلَقَ الَّذِينَ مِن دُونِهِ بَلِ الظَّالِمُونَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ (31:11)
31:11 (Picktall) This is the Creation of Allah. Now show me that which those (ye worship) beside Him have created. Nay, but the wrongdoers are in error manifest!
8- Some of the people of the book particularly the wicked Jews (not the good ones) used their book to buy in and lead others to dalal: related to their disobedience and their stand up against God and his prophets.
أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ نَصِيبًا مِّنَ الْكِتَابِ يَشْتَرُونَ الضَّلاَلَةَ وَيُرِيدُونَ أَن تَضِلُّواْ السَّبِيلَ (4:44)
4:44 (Picktall) Seest thou not those unto whom a portion of the Scripture hath been given, how they purchase error, and seek to make you (Muslims) err from the right way?
9- Muhammad was not the only prophet some followed their guidance and others went in dalal:
وَلَقَدْ بَعَثْنَا فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَّسُولاً أَنِ اعْبُدُواْ اللّهَ وَاجْتَنِبُواْ الطَّاغُوتَ فَمِنْهُم مَّنْ هَدَى اللّهُ وَمِنْهُم مَّنْ حَقَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الضَّلالَةُ فَسِيرُواْ فِي الأَرْضِ فَانظُرُواْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ (16:36)
16:36 (Picktall) And verily We have raised in every nation a messenger, (proclaiming): Serve Allah and shun false gods. Then some of them (there were) whom Allah guided, and some of them (there were) upon whom error had just hold. Do but travel in the land and see the nature of the consequence for the deniers!
10- Ironically they would accuse the prophets of being in dalal:
قَالَ الْمَلأُ مِن قَوْمِهِ إِنَّا لَنَرَاكَ فِي ضَلاَلٍ مُّبِينٍ (7:60)
7:60 (Picktall) The chieftains of his people said: Lo! we see thee surely in plain error. -
Al-A'raf (The Heights)
قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ لَيْسَ بِي ضَلاَلَةٌ وَلَكِنِّي رَسُولٌ مِّن رَّبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ (7:61)
7:61 (Picktall) He said: O my people! There Is no error in me, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the Worlds.
11- Those who did not answer God call will be in manifest dalal in the day of judgement:
أَسْمِعْ بِهِمْ وَأَبْصِرْ يَوْمَ يَأْتُونَنَا لَكِنِ الظَّالِمُونَ الْيَوْمَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ (19:38)
19:38 (Picktall) See and hear them on the Day they come unto Us! Yet the evil-doers are today in error manifest.
12- Then at that day they will realize the dalal they were in:
وَاقْتَرَبَ الْوَعْدُ الْحَقُّ فَإِذَا هِيَ شَاخِصَةٌ أَبْصَارُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يَا وَيْلَنَا قَدْ كُنَّا فِي غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ هَذَا بَلْ كُنَّا ظَالِمِينَ (21:97)
21:97 (Picktall) And the True Promise draweth nigh; then behold them, staring wide (in terror), the eyes of those who disbelieve! (They say): Alas for us! We (lived) in forgetfulness of this. Ah, but we were wrong doers!
13- The evil spirit that influence our thoughts opposite to good spirit will try to save itself at that day: Human brain has two things remarkable the human will which is lower in animals and not existing in nature that follow its laws, Thus humans have the will power to make decisions, the chair does not move by itself but humans have the power to move the chairs. The other thing humans thoughts are flying and not necessarily follow the logic when can go from one thought to another and possibly this spirit is affecting us as well the holy and the evil spirits.
قَالَ قَرِينُهُ رَبَّنَا مَا أَطْغَيْتُهُ وَلَكِن كَانَ فِي ضَلَالٍ بَعِيدٍ (50:27)
50:27 (Picktall) His comrade saith: Our Lord! I did not cause him to rebel, but be was (himself) far gone in error.
14- Thus read the Quran the above verses and the Quran again and again if you do not accept the truth you are left with dalal:
فَذَلِكُمُ اللّهُ رَبُّكُمُ الْحَقُّ فَمَاذَا بَعْدَ الْحَقِّ إِلاَّ الضَّلاَلُ فَأَنَّى تُصْرَفُونَ (10:32)
10:32 (Picktall) Such then is Allah, your rightful Lord. After the Truth what is there saving error? How then are ye turned away!
Dalal or error is opposite of guidance when used in the Quran. Where guidance is following God inspired words Dalal is following the opposite direction. Wandering, confusion and errors are other words to explain dalal but in general is going astray from God path.
1- Muhammad (PBUH) was in wander before he received God inspiration: Muhammad was like most of us was trying to make sense of the world. For few years he would go to a cave in the mountain think about God and religion. He was not a scholar in religions but was wandering like us about God and the universe. God chose him among us billions of people to reveal himself like he did to Abraham and other prophets. God was the one and not Muhammad who guided him.
وَوَجَدَكَ ضَالًّا فَهَدَى (93:7)
93:7 (Picktall) Did He not find thee wandering and direct (thee)?
2- Same thing people around Muhammad (PBUH) were in dalal until Muhammad recited to them God's revelation:
هُوَ الَّذِي بَعَثَ فِي الْأُمِّيِّينَ رَسُولًا مِّنْهُمْ يَتْلُو عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتِهِ وَيُزَكِّيهِمْ وَيُعَلِّمُهُمُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحِكْمَةَ وَإِن كَانُوا مِن قَبْلُ لَفِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ (62:2)
62:2 (Picktall) He it is Who hath sent among the unlettered ones a messenger of their own, to recite unto them His revelations and to make them grow, and to teach them the Scripture and Wisdom, though heretofore they were indeed in error manifest,
3- Those who did not answer God revelation are in Dalal:
وَمَن لَّا يُجِبْ دَاعِيَ اللَّهِ فَلَيْسَ بِمُعْجِزٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ مِن دُونِهِ أَولِيَاء أُوْلَئِكَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ (46:32)
46:32 (Picktall) And whoso respondeth not to Allah's summoner he can nowise escape in the earth, and ye (can find) no protecting friends instead of Him. Such are in error manifest.
4- Their Dalal is the work of their hearts and minds: they made their ears deaf and eyes blind to his revelation.
أَفَأَنتَ تُسْمِعُ الصُّمَّ أَوْ تَهْدِي الْعُمْيَ وَمَن كَانَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ (43:40)
43:40 (Picktall) Canst thou (Muhammad) make the deaf to hear, or canst thou guide the blind or him who is in error manifest?
5- As God help us when we want guidance he extend the dalal of the wicked:
قُلْ مَن كَانَ فِي الضَّلَالَةِ فَلْيَمْدُدْ لَهُ الرَّحْمَنُ مَدًّا حَتَّى إِذَا رَأَوْا مَا يُوعَدُونَ إِمَّا الْعَذَابَ وَإِمَّا السَّاعَةَ فَسَيَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ هُوَ شَرٌّ مَّكَانًا وَأَضْعَفُ جُندًا (19:75) 19:75 (Picktall) Say: As for him who is in error, the Beneficent will verily prolong his span of life until, when they behold that which they were promised, whether it be punishment (in the world), or Hour (of Doom), they will know who is worse in position and who is weaker as an army.
أَفَمَن شَرَحَ اللَّهُ صَدْرَهُ لِلْإِسْلَامِ فَهُوَ عَلَى نُورٍ مِّن رَّبِّهِ فَوَيْلٌ لِّلْقَاسِيَةِ قُلُوبُهُم مِّن ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ أُوْلَئِكَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ (39:22)
39:22 (Picktall) Is he whose bosom Allah hath expanded for the Surrender (unto Him), so that he followeth a light from His Lord, (as he who disbelieveth)? Then woe unto those whose hearts are hardened against remembrance of Allah. Such are in plain error.
6- They commonly choose dalal for material gain which is a bad deal if one to think trade:
أُوْلَـئِكَ الَّذِينَ اشْتَرُوُاْ الضَّلاَلَةَ بِالْهُدَى فَمَا رَبِحَت تِّجَارَتُهُمْ وَمَا كَانُواْ مُهْتَدِينَ (2:16)
2:16 (Picktall) These are they who purchase error at the price of guidance, so their commerce doth not prosper, neither are they guided. -
أُولَـئِكَ الَّذِينَ اشْتَرَوُاْ الضَّلاَلَةَ بِالْهُدَى وَالْعَذَابَ بِالْمَغْفِرَةِ فَمَآ أَصْبَرَهُمْ عَلَى النَّارِ (2:175)
2:175 (Picktall) Those are they who purchase error at the price of guidance, and torment at the price of pardon. How constant are they in their strife to reach the Fire! -
7- They call others besides God those who are not of help or harm to them which is severe dalal:
يَدْعُو مِن دُونِ اللَّهِ مَا لَا يَضُرُّهُ وَمَا لَا يَنفَعُهُ ذَلِكَ هُوَ الضَّلَالُ الْبَعِيدُ (22:12)
22:12 (Picktall) He calleth, beside Allah, unto that which hurteth him not nor benefiteth him. That is the far error.
هَذَا خَلْقُ اللَّهِ فَأَرُونِي مَاذَا خَلَقَ الَّذِينَ مِن دُونِهِ بَلِ الظَّالِمُونَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ (31:11)
31:11 (Picktall) This is the Creation of Allah. Now show me that which those (ye worship) beside Him have created. Nay, but the wrongdoers are in error manifest!
8- Some of the people of the book particularly the wicked Jews (not the good ones) used their book to buy in and lead others to dalal: related to their disobedience and their stand up against God and his prophets.
أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ أُوتُواْ نَصِيبًا مِّنَ الْكِتَابِ يَشْتَرُونَ الضَّلاَلَةَ وَيُرِيدُونَ أَن تَضِلُّواْ السَّبِيلَ (4:44)
4:44 (Picktall) Seest thou not those unto whom a portion of the Scripture hath been given, how they purchase error, and seek to make you (Muslims) err from the right way?
9- Muhammad was not the only prophet some followed their guidance and others went in dalal:
وَلَقَدْ بَعَثْنَا فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَّسُولاً أَنِ اعْبُدُواْ اللّهَ وَاجْتَنِبُواْ الطَّاغُوتَ فَمِنْهُم مَّنْ هَدَى اللّهُ وَمِنْهُم مَّنْ حَقَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الضَّلالَةُ فَسِيرُواْ فِي الأَرْضِ فَانظُرُواْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ (16:36)
16:36 (Picktall) And verily We have raised in every nation a messenger, (proclaiming): Serve Allah and shun false gods. Then some of them (there were) whom Allah guided, and some of them (there were) upon whom error had just hold. Do but travel in the land and see the nature of the consequence for the deniers!
10- Ironically they would accuse the prophets of being in dalal:
قَالَ الْمَلأُ مِن قَوْمِهِ إِنَّا لَنَرَاكَ فِي ضَلاَلٍ مُّبِينٍ (7:60)
7:60 (Picktall) The chieftains of his people said: Lo! we see thee surely in plain error. -
Al-A'raf (The Heights)
قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ لَيْسَ بِي ضَلاَلَةٌ وَلَكِنِّي رَسُولٌ مِّن رَّبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ (7:61)
7:61 (Picktall) He said: O my people! There Is no error in me, but I am a messenger from the Lord of the Worlds.
11- Those who did not answer God call will be in manifest dalal in the day of judgement:
أَسْمِعْ بِهِمْ وَأَبْصِرْ يَوْمَ يَأْتُونَنَا لَكِنِ الظَّالِمُونَ الْيَوْمَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ (19:38)
19:38 (Picktall) See and hear them on the Day they come unto Us! Yet the evil-doers are today in error manifest.
12- Then at that day they will realize the dalal they were in:
وَاقْتَرَبَ الْوَعْدُ الْحَقُّ فَإِذَا هِيَ شَاخِصَةٌ أَبْصَارُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا يَا وَيْلَنَا قَدْ كُنَّا فِي غَفْلَةٍ مِّنْ هَذَا بَلْ كُنَّا ظَالِمِينَ (21:97)
21:97 (Picktall) And the True Promise draweth nigh; then behold them, staring wide (in terror), the eyes of those who disbelieve! (They say): Alas for us! We (lived) in forgetfulness of this. Ah, but we were wrong doers!
13- The evil spirit that influence our thoughts opposite to good spirit will try to save itself at that day: Human brain has two things remarkable the human will which is lower in animals and not existing in nature that follow its laws, Thus humans have the will power to make decisions, the chair does not move by itself but humans have the power to move the chairs.

قَالَ قَرِينُهُ رَبَّنَا مَا أَطْغَيْتُهُ وَلَكِن كَانَ فِي ضَلَالٍ بَعِيدٍ (50:27)
50:27 (Picktall) His comrade saith: Our Lord! I did not cause him to rebel, but be was (himself) far gone in error.
14- Thus read the Quran the above verses and the Quran again and again if you do not accept the truth you are left with dalal:
فَذَلِكُمُ اللّهُ رَبُّكُمُ الْحَقُّ فَمَاذَا بَعْدَ الْحَقِّ إِلاَّ الضَّلاَلُ فَأَنَّى تُصْرَفُونَ (10:32)
10:32 (Picktall) Such then is Allah, your rightful Lord. After the Truth what is there saving error? How then are ye turned away!
Children Of Israel: Some verses in Sura 2
يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ اذْكُرُواْ نِعْمَتِيَ الَّتِي أَنْعَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَأَوْفُواْ بِعَهْدِي أُوفِ بِعَهْدِكُمْ وَإِيَّايَ فَارْهَبُونِ (2:40)
2:40 (Picktall) O Children of Israel! Remember My favor wherewith I favored you, and fulfil your (part of the) covenant, I shall fulfil My (part of the) covenant and fear Me. -
وَآمِنُواْ بِمَا أَنزَلْتُ مُصَدِّقاً لِّمَا مَعَكُمْ وَلاَ تَكُونُواْ أَوَّلَ كَافِرٍ بِهِ وَلاَ تَشْتَرُواْ بِآيَاتِي ثَمَناً قَلِيلاً وَإِيَّايَ فَاتَّقُونِ (2:41)
2:41 (Picktall) And believe in that which I reveal, confirming that which ye possess already (of the Scripture), and be not first to disbelieve therein, and part not with My revelations for a trifling price, and keep your duty unto Me. -
وَلاَ تَلْبِسُواْ الْحَقَّ بِالْبَاطِلِ وَتَكْتُمُواْ الْحَقَّ وَأَنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ (2:42
2:42 (Picktall) Confound not truth with falsehood, nor knowingly conceal the truth. -
وَأَقِيمُواْ الصَّلاَةَ وَآتُواْ الزَّكَاةَ وَارْكَعُواْ مَعَ الرَّاكِعِينَ (2:43)
2:43 (Picktall) Establish worship, pay the poor-due, and bow your heads with those who bow (in worship). -
أَتَأْمُرُونَ النَّاسَ بِالْبِرِّ وَتَنسَوْنَ أَنفُسَكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ تَتْلُونَ الْكِتَابَ أَفَلاَ تَعْقِلُونَ (2:44)
2:44 (Picktall) Enjoin ye righteousness upon mankind while ye yourselves forget (to practise it)? And ye are readers of the Scripture! Have ye then no sense? -
وَاسْتَعِينُواْ بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلاَةِ وَإِنَّهَا لَكَبِيرَةٌ إِلاَّ عَلَى الْخَاشِعِينَ (2:45)
2:45 (Picktall) Seek help in patience and prayer; and truly it is hard save for the humble-minded, -
الَّذِينَ يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّهُم مُّلاَقُو رَبِّهِمْ وَأَنَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ (2:46)
2:46 (Picktall) Who know that they will have to meet their Lord, and that unto Him they are returning. -
يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ اذْكُرُواْ نِعْمَتِيَ الَّتِي أَنْعَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَأَنِّي فَضَّلْتُكُمْ عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ (2:47)
2:47 (Picktall) O Children of Israel! Remember My favor wherewith I favored you and how I preferred you to (all) creatures. -
وَاتَّقُواْ يَوْماً لاَّ تَجْزِي نَفْسٌ عَن نَّفْسٍ شَيْئاً وَلاَ يُقْبَلُ مِنْهَا شَفَاعَةٌ وَلاَ يُؤْخَذُ مِنْهَا عَدْلٌ وَلاَ هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ (2:48)
2:48 (Picktall) And guard yourselves against a day when no soul will in aught avail another, nor will intercession be accepted from it, nor will compensation be received from it, nor will they be helped. -
وَإِذْ نَجَّيْنَاكُم مِّنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ يَسُومُونَكُمْ سُوَءَ الْعَذَابِ يُذَبِّحُونَ أَبْنَاءكُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيُونَ نِسَاءكُمْ وَفِي ذَلِكُم بَلاء مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ عَظِيمٌ (2:49
2:49 (Picktall) And (remember) when We did deliver you from Pharaoh's folk, who were afflicting you with dreadful torment, slaying your sons and sparing your women: That was a tremendous trial from your Lord. -
وَإِذْ فَرَقْنَا بِكُمُ الْبَحْرَ فَأَنجَيْنَاكُمْ وَأَغْرَقْنَا آلَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَأَنتُمْ تَنظُرُونَ (2:50)
2:50 (Picktall) And when We brought you through the sea and rescued you, and drowned the folk of Pharaoh in your sight. -
وَإِذْ وَاعَدْنَا مُوسَى أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً ثُمَّ اتَّخَذْتُمُ الْعِجْلَ مِن بَعْدِهِ وَأَنتُمْ ظَالِمُونَ (2:51)
2:51 (Picktall) And when We did appoint for Moses forty nights (of solitude), and then ye chose the calf, when he had gone from you, and were wrongdoers. -
ثُمَّ عَفَوْنَا عَنكُمِ مِّن بَعْدِ ذَلِكَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ (2:52)
2:52 (Picktall) Then, even after that, We pardoned you in order that ye might give thanks. -
وَإِذْ آتَيْنَا مُوسَى الْكِتَابَ وَالْفُرْقَانَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ (2:53)
2:53 (Picktall) And when We gave unto Moses the Scripture and the Criterion (of right and wrong), that ye might be led aright. -
وَإِذْ قَالَ مُوسَى لِقَوْمِهِ يَا قَوْمِ إِنَّكُمْ ظَلَمْتُمْ أَنفُسَكُمْ بِاتِّخَاذِكُمُ الْعِجْلَ فَتُوبُواْ إِلَى بَارِئِكُمْ فَاقْتُلُواْ أَنفُسَكُمْ ذَلِكُمْ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ عِندَ بَارِئِكُمْ فَتَابَ عَلَيْكُمْ إِنَّهُ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ (2:54)
2:54 (Picktall) And when Moses said unto his people: O my people! Ye have wronged yourselves by your choosing of the calf (for worship) so turn in penitence to your Creator, and kill (the guilty) yourselves. That will be best for you with your Creator and He will relent toward you. Lo! He is the Relenting, the Merciful. -
وَإِذْ قُلْتُمْ يَا مُوسَى لَن نُّؤْمِنَ لَكَ حَتَّى نَرَى اللَّهَ جَهْرَةً فَأَخَذَتْكُمُ الصَّاعِقَةُ وَأَنتُمْ تَنظُرُونَ (2:55)
2:55 (Picktall) And when ye said: O Moses! We will not believe in thee till we see Allah plainly; and even while ye gazed the lightning seized you. -
ثُمَّ بَعَثْنَاكُم مِّن بَعْدِ مَوْتِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ (2:56)
2:56 (Picktall) Then We revived you after your extinction, that ye might give thanks. -
وَظَلَّلْنَا عَلَيْكُمُ الْغَمَامَ وَأَنزَلْنَا عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَنَّ وَالسَّلْوَى كُلُواْ مِن طَيِّبَاتِ مَا رَزَقْنَاكُمْ وَمَا ظَلَمُونَا وَلَـكِن كَانُواْ أَنفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ (2:57) 2:57 (Picktall) And We caused the white cloud to overshadow you and sent down on you the manna and the quails, (saying): Eat of the good things wherewith We have provided you. We wronged them not, but they did wrong themselves. -
وَإِذْ قُلْنَا ادْخُلُواْ هَـذِهِ الْقَرْيَةَ فَكُلُواْ مِنْهَا حَيْثُ شِئْتُمْ رَغَداً وَادْخُلُواْ الْبَابَ سُجَّداً وَقُولُواْ حِطَّةٌ نَّغْفِرْ لَكُمْ خَطَايَاكُمْ وَسَنَزِيدُ الْمُحْسِنِينَ (2:58)
2:58 (Picktall) And when We said: Go into this township and eat freely of that which is therein, and enter the gate prostrate, and say: "Repentance." We will forgive you your sins and increase (reward) for the right-doers. -
فَبَدَّلَ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ قَوْلاً غَيْرَ الَّذِي قِيلَ لَهُمْ فَأَنزَلْنَا عَلَى الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ رِجْزاً مِّنَ السَّمَاء بِمَا كَانُواْ يَفْسُقُونَ (2:59)
2:59 (Picktall) But those who did wrong changed the word which had been told them for another saying, and We sent down upon the evil-doers wrath from Heaven for their evil doing. -
وَإِذِ اسْتَسْقَى مُوسَى لِقَوْمِهِ فَقُلْنَا اضْرِب بِّعَصَاكَ الْحَجَرَ فَانفَجَرَتْ مِنْهُ اثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ عَيْناً قَدْ عَلِمَ كُلُّ أُنَاسٍ مَّشْرَبَهُمْ كُلُواْ وَاشْرَبُواْ مِن رِّزْقِ اللَّهِ وَلاَ تَعْثَوْاْ فِي الأَرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ (2:60)
2:60 (Picktall) And when Moses asked for water for his people, We said: Smite with thy staff the rock. And there gushed out therefrom twelve springs (so that) each tribe knew their drinking place. Eat and drink of that which Allah hath provided, and do not act corruptly, making mischief in the earth. -
وَإِذْ قُلْتُمْ يَا مُوسَى لَن نَّصْبِرَ عَلَىَ طَعَامٍ وَاحِدٍ فَادْعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُخْرِجْ لَنَا مِمَّا تُنبِتُ الأَرْضُ مِن بَقْلِهَا وَقِثَّآئِهَا وَفُومِهَا وَعَدَسِهَا وَبَصَلِهَا قَالَ أَتَسْتَبْدِلُونَ الَّذِي هُوَ أَدْنَى بِالَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ اهْبِطُواْ مِصْراً فَإِنَّ لَكُم مَّا سَأَلْتُمْ وَضُرِبَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الذِّلَّةُ وَالْمَسْكَنَةُ وَبَآؤُوْاْ بِغَضَبٍ مِّنَ اللَّهِ ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ كَانُواْ يَكْفُرُونَ بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ وَيَقْتُلُونَ النَّبِيِّينَ بِغَيْرِ الْحَقِّ ذَلِكَ بِمَا عَصَواْ وَّكَانُواْ يَعْتَدُونَ (2:61)
2:61 (Picktall) And when ye said: O Moses! We are weary of one kind of food; so call upon thy Lord for us that he bring forth for us of that which the earth groweth of its herbs and its cucumbers and its corn and its lentils and its onions. He said: Would ye exchange that which is higher for that which is lower? Go down to settled country, thus ye shall get that which ye demand. And humiliation and wretchedness were stamped upon them and they were visited with wrath from Allah. That was because they disbelieved in Allah's revelations and slew the prophets wrongfully. That was for their disobedience and transgression.
2:40 (Picktall) O Children of Israel! Remember My favor wherewith I favored you, and fulfil your (part of the) covenant, I shall fulfil My (part of the) covenant and fear Me. -
وَآمِنُواْ بِمَا أَنزَلْتُ مُصَدِّقاً لِّمَا مَعَكُمْ وَلاَ تَكُونُواْ أَوَّلَ كَافِرٍ بِهِ وَلاَ تَشْتَرُواْ بِآيَاتِي ثَمَناً قَلِيلاً وَإِيَّايَ فَاتَّقُونِ (2:41)
2:41 (Picktall) And believe in that which I reveal, confirming that which ye possess already (of the Scripture), and be not first to disbelieve therein, and part not with My revelations for a trifling price, and keep your duty unto Me. -
وَلاَ تَلْبِسُواْ الْحَقَّ بِالْبَاطِلِ وَتَكْتُمُواْ الْحَقَّ وَأَنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ (2:42
2:42 (Picktall) Confound not truth with falsehood, nor knowingly conceal the truth. -
وَأَقِيمُواْ الصَّلاَةَ وَآتُواْ الزَّكَاةَ وَارْكَعُواْ مَعَ الرَّاكِعِينَ (2:43)
2:43 (Picktall) Establish worship, pay the poor-due, and bow your heads with those who bow (in worship). -
أَتَأْمُرُونَ النَّاسَ بِالْبِرِّ وَتَنسَوْنَ أَنفُسَكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ تَتْلُونَ الْكِتَابَ أَفَلاَ تَعْقِلُونَ (2:44)
2:44 (Picktall) Enjoin ye righteousness upon mankind while ye yourselves forget (to practise it)? And ye are readers of the Scripture! Have ye then no sense? -
وَاسْتَعِينُواْ بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلاَةِ وَإِنَّهَا لَكَبِيرَةٌ إِلاَّ عَلَى الْخَاشِعِينَ (2:45)
2:45 (Picktall) Seek help in patience and prayer; and truly it is hard save for the humble-minded, -
الَّذِينَ يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّهُم مُّلاَقُو رَبِّهِمْ وَأَنَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ (2:46)
2:46 (Picktall) Who know that they will have to meet their Lord, and that unto Him they are returning. -
يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ اذْكُرُواْ نِعْمَتِيَ الَّتِي أَنْعَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَأَنِّي فَضَّلْتُكُمْ عَلَى الْعَالَمِينَ (2:47)
2:47 (Picktall) O Children of Israel! Remember My favor wherewith I favored you and how I preferred you to (all) creatures. -
وَاتَّقُواْ يَوْماً لاَّ تَجْزِي نَفْسٌ عَن نَّفْسٍ شَيْئاً وَلاَ يُقْبَلُ مِنْهَا شَفَاعَةٌ وَلاَ يُؤْخَذُ مِنْهَا عَدْلٌ وَلاَ هُمْ يُنصَرُونَ (2:48)
2:48 (Picktall) And guard yourselves against a day when no soul will in aught avail another, nor will intercession be accepted from it, nor will compensation be received from it, nor will they be helped. -
وَإِذْ نَجَّيْنَاكُم مِّنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ يَسُومُونَكُمْ سُوَءَ الْعَذَابِ يُذَبِّحُونَ أَبْنَاءكُمْ وَيَسْتَحْيُونَ نِسَاءكُمْ وَفِي ذَلِكُم بَلاء مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ عَظِيمٌ (2:49
2:49 (Picktall) And (remember) when We did deliver you from Pharaoh's folk, who were afflicting you with dreadful torment, slaying your sons and sparing your women: That was a tremendous trial from your Lord. -
وَإِذْ فَرَقْنَا بِكُمُ الْبَحْرَ فَأَنجَيْنَاكُمْ وَأَغْرَقْنَا آلَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَأَنتُمْ تَنظُرُونَ (2:50)
2:50 (Picktall) And when We brought you through the sea and rescued you, and drowned the folk of Pharaoh in your sight. -
وَإِذْ وَاعَدْنَا مُوسَى أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً ثُمَّ اتَّخَذْتُمُ الْعِجْلَ مِن بَعْدِهِ وَأَنتُمْ ظَالِمُونَ (2:51)
2:51 (Picktall) And when We did appoint for Moses forty nights (of solitude), and then ye chose the calf, when he had gone from you, and were wrongdoers. -
ثُمَّ عَفَوْنَا عَنكُمِ مِّن بَعْدِ ذَلِكَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ (2:52)
2:52 (Picktall) Then, even after that, We pardoned you in order that ye might give thanks. -
وَإِذْ آتَيْنَا مُوسَى الْكِتَابَ وَالْفُرْقَانَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ (2:53)
2:53 (Picktall) And when We gave unto Moses the Scripture and the Criterion (of right and wrong), that ye might be led aright. -
وَإِذْ قَالَ مُوسَى لِقَوْمِهِ يَا قَوْمِ إِنَّكُمْ ظَلَمْتُمْ أَنفُسَكُمْ بِاتِّخَاذِكُمُ الْعِجْلَ فَتُوبُواْ إِلَى بَارِئِكُمْ فَاقْتُلُواْ أَنفُسَكُمْ ذَلِكُمْ خَيْرٌ لَّكُمْ عِندَ بَارِئِكُمْ فَتَابَ عَلَيْكُمْ إِنَّهُ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحِيمُ (2:54)
2:54 (Picktall) And when Moses said unto his people: O my people! Ye have wronged yourselves by your choosing of the calf (for worship) so turn in penitence to your Creator, and kill (the guilty) yourselves. That will be best for you with your Creator and He will relent toward you. Lo! He is the Relenting, the Merciful. -
وَإِذْ قُلْتُمْ يَا مُوسَى لَن نُّؤْمِنَ لَكَ حَتَّى نَرَى اللَّهَ جَهْرَةً فَأَخَذَتْكُمُ الصَّاعِقَةُ وَأَنتُمْ تَنظُرُونَ (2:55)
2:55 (Picktall) And when ye said: O Moses! We will not believe in thee till we see Allah plainly; and even while ye gazed the lightning seized you. -
ثُمَّ بَعَثْنَاكُم مِّن بَعْدِ مَوْتِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ (2:56)
2:56 (Picktall) Then We revived you after your extinction, that ye might give thanks. -
وَظَلَّلْنَا عَلَيْكُمُ الْغَمَامَ وَأَنزَلْنَا عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَنَّ وَالسَّلْوَى كُلُواْ مِن طَيِّبَاتِ مَا رَزَقْنَاكُمْ وَمَا ظَلَمُونَا وَلَـكِن كَانُواْ أَنفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ (2:57) 2:57 (Picktall) And We caused the white cloud to overshadow you and sent down on you the manna and the quails, (saying): Eat of the good things wherewith We have provided you. We wronged them not, but they did wrong themselves. -
وَإِذْ قُلْنَا ادْخُلُواْ هَـذِهِ الْقَرْيَةَ فَكُلُواْ مِنْهَا حَيْثُ شِئْتُمْ رَغَداً وَادْخُلُواْ الْبَابَ سُجَّداً وَقُولُواْ حِطَّةٌ نَّغْفِرْ لَكُمْ خَطَايَاكُمْ وَسَنَزِيدُ الْمُحْسِنِينَ (2:58)
2:58 (Picktall) And when We said: Go into this township and eat freely of that which is therein, and enter the gate prostrate, and say: "Repentance." We will forgive you your sins and increase (reward) for the right-doers. -
فَبَدَّلَ الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ قَوْلاً غَيْرَ الَّذِي قِيلَ لَهُمْ فَأَنزَلْنَا عَلَى الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ رِجْزاً مِّنَ السَّمَاء بِمَا كَانُواْ يَفْسُقُونَ (2:59)
2:59 (Picktall) But those who did wrong changed the word which had been told them for another saying, and We sent down upon the evil-doers wrath from Heaven for their evil doing. -
وَإِذِ اسْتَسْقَى مُوسَى لِقَوْمِهِ فَقُلْنَا اضْرِب بِّعَصَاكَ الْحَجَرَ فَانفَجَرَتْ مِنْهُ اثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ عَيْناً قَدْ عَلِمَ كُلُّ أُنَاسٍ مَّشْرَبَهُمْ كُلُواْ وَاشْرَبُواْ مِن رِّزْقِ اللَّهِ وَلاَ تَعْثَوْاْ فِي الأَرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ (2:60)
2:60 (Picktall) And when Moses asked for water for his people, We said: Smite with thy staff the rock. And there gushed out therefrom twelve springs (so that) each tribe knew their drinking place. Eat and drink of that which Allah hath provided, and do not act corruptly, making mischief in the earth. -
وَإِذْ قُلْتُمْ يَا مُوسَى لَن نَّصْبِرَ عَلَىَ طَعَامٍ وَاحِدٍ فَادْعُ لَنَا رَبَّكَ يُخْرِجْ لَنَا مِمَّا تُنبِتُ الأَرْضُ مِن بَقْلِهَا وَقِثَّآئِهَا وَفُومِهَا وَعَدَسِهَا وَبَصَلِهَا قَالَ أَتَسْتَبْدِلُونَ الَّذِي هُوَ أَدْنَى بِالَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ اهْبِطُواْ مِصْراً فَإِنَّ لَكُم مَّا سَأَلْتُمْ وَضُرِبَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الذِّلَّةُ وَالْمَسْكَنَةُ وَبَآؤُوْاْ بِغَضَبٍ مِّنَ اللَّهِ ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ كَانُواْ يَكْفُرُونَ بِآيَاتِ اللَّهِ وَيَقْتُلُونَ النَّبِيِّينَ بِغَيْرِ الْحَقِّ ذَلِكَ بِمَا عَصَواْ وَّكَانُواْ يَعْتَدُونَ (2:61)
2:61 (Picktall) And when ye said: O Moses! We are weary of one kind of food; so call upon thy Lord for us that he bring forth for us of that which the earth groweth of its herbs and its cucumbers and its corn and its lentils and its onions.

Why The Jews Were Cursed

Rasul Allah's wife, Umm Al-Mu'mineen Safiyyah bint Huyayy - radi'Allahu 'anha - was the daughter of one of the Jewish leaders of Madinah. After her Islam, she informed the Prophet - sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam - when she had first felt the rays of Islam enter her blessed heart.
It was the day that Anas - radi Allahu 'anhu - describes as the most radiant day to every come upon al-Madinah - the day Rasul Allah - salAllahu alayhi wa sallam - entered it.
All the Ansar men, women and children gathered to greet him, cheers of praise to Allah filled the air.
Amongst the gathering were 2 men; as much as the Ansar and Muhaajireen revered the Prophet, they despised him. It was the father of Safiyyah - radi Allahu 'anha - and her uncle.
She was only a youngster as she looked into the darkness and gloom that had enveloped their faces when they returned home that day. Her Jewish uncle 1400 years ago asked, "Is it him? Is it the Prophet that our scriptures speak of?" Huyayy lowered his head and said, "Yes. It is him." "Then what shall we do?" Safiyyah's uncle continued. Huyayy looked into his eyes, "Till the final day we shall be his bitterest enemies!"
From the very first raka'ah of Taraweeh we read the verse in the opening Surah: [Guide us to the straight path - The path of those upon whom You have bestowed favor, not of those who have evoked (Your) anger!..]
Adiyy ibn Hatim asked Rasul Allah - sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam - who it was that evoked Allah's anger? He said, "It was the Jews" - Tafseer Ibn Katheer
When I was in high school, studying in journalism class, our teacher had placed on the wall a statement that I spent many days contemplating. It simply said, "Freedom of the press (speech) belongs to those that own the press!" Who owns the press? Well, you can believe me when I say that it is not the god fearing beloved of Allah.
It is this same press that molds and programs the aqeedah of a huge section of our Ummah. Many of our brothers and sisters are illiterate to the words of Allah and the guidance of Rasul Allah - sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam, so it is with little doubt that their ideas are subconsciously molded by what Seinfeld tells them at 8 pm every Wednesday evening.
It is this same brother or sister that asks the question, "I don't understand why the Jews were cursed. Seinfeld is funny. What did he do?"
This khutbah is our media and in sha' Allah we shall learn in these few moments only samples of what carried the Jews to evoke Allah's anger.
In the opening verses of Surat Al-Baqarah, Allah invites the Children of Isra'eel to come back - to remember the favor and blessing He bestowed upon them - and to fulfill the promise that they would follow the Prophet when he was sent to them.
[O Children of Israel, remember My favor that I bestowed upon you and fulfill My covenant upon you that I will fulfill your convenant (from Me) and fear only Me.] - Surah al-Baqarah 2/40
Allah saved them of their slavery to Fir'own, he saved them from sea and drowned Fir'own and his army. Allah selected them to receive food from the sky. Allah sent them Prophet after Prophet from amongst themselves, and sent the Holy scriptures - the Towrah and the Injeel. Allah preferred them over all others at their time.
[ ...And that I preferred you over the worlds (i.e. people).] - Surah al-Baqarah 2/47
How did they reply these Blessings of Allah?
(i) They Followed Only What They Wanted to
When a Prophet came to them, if what he taught did not appeal to them they either rejected that truth or slit the throat of the Prophet and followed what was to them appealing.
[We had already taken the covenant of the Children of Israel and had sent to them messengers. Whenever there came to them a messenger with what their souls did not desire, a groups (of the Messengers) they denied and another party they killed.] - al Maa'idah 5/70
And we must remember here that this is not the commentary of some human journalist who claims to be neutral. This is the Lord of the Universe telling us - in verses to be read till the final day - the deepest secrets that lie in the pits of Judaism. [And who is more truthful than Allah in statement!] - al Nisaa' 4/87
(ii) They Changed the Words of Allah
There was groups of Jews that would change the words of Allah - adding something here, deleting there - to pound the truth and keep the flock in servitude to what they desired.
[And indeed, there is among them a party who alter the Scripture with their tongues so you may think it is from the Scripture, but it is not from the Scripture. And they say, "This is from Allah," but it is not from Allah. And they speak untruth about Allah while they know.] Ali-Imran 3/78
(iii) Their claim that they are the beloved children of God
Ibn Abbas narrates: Nu'maan ibn Aasaa, Bahr ibn 'Amr and Shaas ibn Adee (3 Jews) came to Allah's Messenger - sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam. He sat with them and invited them to Allah and warned them of Allah's anger. They replied, "Why are you trying to scare us O Muhammad? By God, we are the children of God and His beloved ones!" At that the verse was revealed:
[And the Jews and the Christians say, "We are the Children of Allah and His beloved." Say: "Then why does He punish you for your sins?" Rather, you are humans from among (all the others) that He created.] Al-Maa'idah 5/18 - Ibn Katheer 2/36
(iv) Their Blasphemous Statements
There came upon the Jews a time of poverty, so they went to Shaas ibn Qays and questioned him. He said, "Your Lord is stingy, he never provides." Allah revealed in the Qur'an:
[And the Jews say, "The hand of Allah is chained." Chained are their hands and cursed are they for what they say. Rather, both His hands are extended; He spends however He wills.] Al-Maa'idah 5/64
(v) Their Murdering of the Prophets
One of the most horrific sins that they performed was the slaughtering of their Prophets. This was one of the major reasons they were struck with humiliation.
[And they were covered with humiliation and poverty and returned with anger from Allah (upon them). That was because they (repeatedly) disbelieved in the signs of Allah and killed the Prophets without right. That was because they disobeyed and were (habitually) transgressing.] - Baqarah 2/61
Not only did they try to kill their Prophets, but they attempted to assassinate Rasul Allah - sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam - himself. RasulAllah went with some companions to meet with the Jews of Banu Nadheer. While he waited for them at the side of a building, they climed the roof with a boulder to crush down upon the head of Rasul Allah. Jibreel warned Rasul Allah - sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam - of their plan. He stood up without saying anything, left for Madinah, and came back with an army. This was the cause of Banu Nadheer's expulsion from Madinah - Mukhtasar Seerat Ibn Hisham 159And the list goes on - They did not command the good or forbid the evil, they did not accept the ruling of what Allah revealed upon them, they disbelieved their book, they received food from the heavens but rejected it, they challenged their Prophet to show them Allah in this life, they took Angel Jibreel as their sworn enemy, they took the graves of their Prophets as symbols of worship ... and the list goes on and on in the Qur'an and Sunnah.

Still some of them are good and they will work for saving their eternity unlike those who are tempted by Satan and forgot the life in the earth is short and they will face eternity in heaven or hell (Johanam).

THE JEWS ARE NO LONGER GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE
Harry Bethel
BethelMinistries.com
NOTICE: This writer does not advocate illegal discrimination or racism or violation of civil rights of Jews or any other group. This article and website is NOT anti-Semitic. Christians should love the Jews and pray for them.
It is a lie from Satan that Jews are God's chosen people and many pastors embrace and teach Satan's lie that Christians should support the State of Israel (Zionism). Also, another lie from Satan is the teaching that God blesses those who bless Israel and He curses those who curse them. (That has not been true for more than 1900 years.)
Jews claim to be God's chosen people, but they were His chosen people. Only the elect of the Jews (which is an extremely small minority) will be saved.
Jesus Christ, who is God incarnate, pronounced judgment on the Jews for rejecting Him:
The Jews generally rejected Jesus, the true Messiah, therefore Jesus cursed the fig tree, which represents Israel, saying, "May you never bear fruit again!" (Mat. 21:18).
When the Jewish chief priests and elders questioned Jesus' authority He said to them, "I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people [Gentiles] who will produce its fruit" (Mat. 21:43).
When Jesus told a parable to the Jewish chief priests, scribes, and elders (Lk. 20:19), they knew He was talking about them when He said that the vine-growers, to whom the owner had sent his son, killed his son. Then in the parable Jesus asked what will the owner of the vineyard do to those who killed his son, to which He said, "He will come and destroy these vine-growers [Jews] and will give the vineyard to others [Gentiles]."
After hearing this and knowing that Jesus was talking about them, those Jews "tried to lay hands on Him that very hour...and they watched Him, and sent spies who pretended to be righteous, in order that they might catch Him in some statement, so as to deliver Him up to the rule and the authority of the governor" (Lk. 20:9-20).
A loving, longsuffering and merciful God sent Jesus to "His own [the Jews], and His own received Him not" (John 1:11). The reason that the Jewish prophet John (the Baptizer) came baptizing with water was to reveal Jesus to Israel (John 1:31). And Jesus said that He was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel (Mat. 15:24).
Near the end of Jesus' earthly ministry Jesus said, 'O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing. Look, your house is left to you desolate. (Mat. 23:37-38).
Paul quoted Isaiah in his epistle to the Christians in Rome, "Concerning Israel he [Isaiah] says, 'All day long I [God] have held out My hands to a disobedient and obstinate people [the Jews]'" (Rom. 10:21).
After the apostle Paul had preached the Gospel to Jews in cities throughout Asia and was, for the most part, rejected by them, he turned to the Gentiles and ministered to them.
Near the end of Paul's ministry, when he was in Rome under house arrest, he spoke to a large gathering of Jews. Paul explained and declared to them the kingdom of God and tried to convince them about Jesus from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets.
The great apostle concluded his sermon by saying, "The Holy Spirit spoke the truth to your [Jewish] forefathers when He said through Isaiah the prophet: 'Go to this people and say, 'You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving. For this people's heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn and I would heal [save] them.' Therefore I want you to know that God's salvation has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will listen" (Acts 28:17-28).
When the Jews cried out over and over to crucify Jesus, and Pilate wanted to release Him, all the Jews said, "Let His blood be on us and on our children!" (Mat. 27:25).
Jesus prophesied God's destruction of Jerusalem that would take place in 70 A.D. at the hands of the Roman general Titus (Mat. 24:1-2; Lk. 19:41-44). According to Josephus, the first-century Jewish historian, more than 1,000,000 Jews died when Jerusalem was laid siege to and destroyed as Jesus had prophesied 40 years earlier.
That horrific suffering was second only to the suffering of the twentieth century Holocaust under Hitler. This was because of the general rejection of Christ by the Jews, and until this day they still reject Jesus Christ as the Messiah and Savior and the only way to heaven.
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man [including Jews] cometh unto the Father, but by Me" (Jn. 14:6). There are very few Jews today who will repent of their sins and be born again and receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior and only way to God to Father.
In 614 A.D. the Persians captured Jerusalem and massacred the inhabitants. The so-called "Christian" Crusaders captured Jerusalem in 1099. Several times since then Jerusalem has fallen into the hands of Moslems and "Christians." There is no reason to believe that the Crusaders were truly born-again Christians, anymore than the vast majority of Roman Catholics.
The Jews have continued to reject Christ throughout the centuries and the last great slaughter of Jews was during the Holocaust. It is claimed that six million Jews were killed in a few short years under the hand of Hitler (the number is probably exaggerated). (Also killed were Christ-rejecting Gypsies, homosexuals, and a few others.) All of this mass-killing took place as a sovereign and just God looked on.
Paul in Romans 9:27 referred to Isaiah when he wrote, "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, [only] a remnant shall be saved."
The apostle Paul (a born-again Jew) said that the minds of the Jews have been made dull and to this day a "veil" covers their hearts when the Old Covenant is read, and only in Christ is it taken away (2 Cor. 3:14-16).
Paul wrote concerning the Jews, "You who brag about the Law, do you dishonor God by breaking the Law? As it is written: 'God's name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you'" (Rom. 2:23-24).
Justin Martyr, in 116 A.D. wrote, "The Jews were behind all the persecutions of the Christians. They wandered through the country everywhere hating and undermining the Christian faith."
Albert Einstein, a Jew, and an atheist said in a letter to philosopher Eric Gutkind dated 1/3/1954 that Jews were not God's chosen people. The renowned physicist wrote, "For me the Jewish religion like all others is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions." Einstein said, "And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people." He wrote, "The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weakness, the Bible a collection of honorable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish."
Concerning the Jews Einstein wrote, "As far as my experience goes, they are no better than other human groups...I cannot see anything 'chosen' about them."
President Harry S. Truman wrote in his diary on 7/21/1947, "The Jews, I find, are very, very selfish...[W]hen they have power, physical, financial or political neither Hitler nor Stalin has anything on them for cruelty or mistreatment of the underdog."
Reportedly, in 1977 Israel passed a law that prohibits anyone, including Christians, from leading the Jews to change their religion.
What should be the attitude of Christians toward Christ-rejecting Jews?
Christians should love the Jews just as we should love the heathen in Africa. Paul wrote that "all Israel shall be saved" (Rom. 11:26), but the apostle also wrote that "though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, [only] a remnant shall be saved" (Rom. 9:27).
All true Israel is only a remnant. During the Great Tribulation 144,000 Jews will be saved, but this is only a small remnant compared to the millions of Jews living today. The Christ-rejecting Jews are no different than anyone else who has not repented of their sins and been born again. Pray for the Jews, love them, ask God to have mercy on them, and share the true Gospel with those who will listen.

In the Quran God has told us how he choose the Jews and how over the ages they stood against him and his prophets. There is no doubt some of them are very good and will stand with the true loving of Jesus from Muslims and Jews. Many of them will serve Satan and stand against him in his second coming. Regarding Israel, it is one of the most wicked and raciest states and they control all the world including Washington. Christians have to wake up and stand for Christ. It is few years in earth and we will see him in this generation and you need to answer to him what you did when I was calling you to stand for his second coming.

NOTICE: This writer does not advocate illegal discrimination or racism or violation of civil rights of Jews or any other group. This article and website is NOT anti-Semitic. Christians should love the Jews and pray for them.
It is a lie from Satan that Jews are God's chosen people and many pastors embrace and teach Satan's lie that Christians should support the State of Israel (Zionism). Also, another lie from Satan is the teaching that God blesses those who bless Israel and He curses those who curse them. (That has not been true for more than 1900 years.)
Jews claim to be God's chosen people, but they were His chosen people. Only the elect of the Jews (which is an extremely small minority) will be saved.
Jesus Christ, who is God incarnate, pronounced judgment on the Jews for rejecting Him:
The Jews generally rejected Jesus, the true Messiah, therefore Jesus cursed the fig tree, which represents Israel, saying, "May you never bear fruit again!" (Mat. 21:18).
When the Jewish chief priests and elders questioned Jesus' authority He said to them, "I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people [Gentiles] who will produce its fruit" (Mat. 21:43).

The Quran: Predicted by the Jewish Prophets of the Tanak
From: http://www.jews-for-allah.com/
Revealed to an illiterate
Isaiah 29:12 (read verses 11 through 18 for full context)And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.
Revelation from Kedar
I {am} the Lord: that {is} my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. Behold, the former things are come to pass, and the new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them. `Sing unto the Lord a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth'. Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voices, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains. Let them give glory unto the Lord, and declare His praise in the inlands." (Isaiah 42:8-12.)
God did reveal in the Land of Kedar, to the Prophet Muhammad (Pbuh)- a descendant of Kedar - a "New Song", the Qur'an (Koran), in the language of the Kedarites. The verses of the Qur'an are recited like a poem.
Revelation Piece By Piece
Isaiah 28:10-13 (read verses 10 through 16 for full context)10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
13 But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
In a new language
Isaiah 28:11-12 For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.
12 To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
In conclusion, the Quran is a book for the Jews, Allah loves the Jews and sent the Holy Koran as a book of guidance for the Jews.
Revealed to someone like Moses
In Deuteronomy 18, Moses stated that God told him: “I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers; I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him. If anyone does not listen to my words that the prophet speaks in my name, I myself will call him to account.” (Deuteronomy 18:18-19).1
From these verses we conclude that the prophet in this prophecy must have the following three characteristics:
1) That he will be like Moses.
2) That he will come from the brothers of the Israelites, i.e. the Ishmaelites.
3) That God will put His words in to the mouth of this prophet and that he will declare what God commands him.
Let us examine these three characteristics in more depth:
1) A prophet like Moses:
There were hardly any two prophets who were so much alike as Moses and Muhammad. Both were given a comprehensive law and code of life. Both encountered their enemies and were victorious in miraculous ways. Both were accepted as prophets and statesmen. Both migrated following conspiracies to assassinate them. Analogies between Moses and Jesus overlook not only the above similarities but other crucial ones as well. These include the natural birth, the family life, and death of Moses and Muhammad but not of Jesus. Moreover Jesus was regarded by his followers as the Son of God and not exclusively as a prophet of God, as Moses and Muhammad were and as Muslims believe Jesus was. So, this prophecy refers to the Prophet Muhammad and not to Jesus, because Muhammad is more like Moses than Jesus.
Also, one notices from the Gospel of John that the Jews were waiting for the fulfillment of three distinct prophecies. The first was the coming of Christ. The second was the coming of Elijah. The third was the coming of the Prophet. This is obvious from the three questions that were posed to John the Baptist: “Now this was John’s testimony, when the Jews of Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him who he was. He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, “I am not the Christ.” They asked him, “Then who are you? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” He answered, “No.” (John 1:19-21). If we look in a Bible with cross-references, we will find in the marginal notes where the words “the Prophet” occur in John 1:21, that these words refer to the prophecy of Deuteronomy 18:15 and 18:18 We conclude from this that Jesus Christ is not the prophet mentioned in Deuteronomy 18:18.
2) From the brothers of the Israelites:
Abraham had two sons, Ishmael and Isaac (Genesis 21). Ishmael became the grandfather of the Arab nation, and Isaac became the grandfather of the Jewish nation. The prophet spoken of was not to come from among the Jews themselves, but from among their brothers, i.e. the Ishmaelites. Muhammad, a descendant of Ishmael, is indeed this prophet.
Also, Isaiah 42:1-13 speaks of the servant of God, His “chosen one” and “messenger” who will bring down a law. “He will not falter or be discouraged till he establishes justice on earth. In his law the islands will put their hope.” (Isaiah 42:4). Verse 11, connects that awaited one with the descendants of Kedar. Who is Kedar? According to Genesis 25:13, Kedar was the second son of Ishmael, the ancestor of the Prophet Muhammad.
3) God will put His words in the mouth of this prophet:
The words of God (the Holy Quran) were truly put into Muhammad’s mouth. God sent the Angel Gabriel to teach Muhammad the exact words of God (the Holy Quran) and asked him to dictate them to the people as he heard them. The words are therefore not his own. They did not come from his own thoughts, but were put into his mouth by the Angel Gabriel. During the life time of Muhammad, and under his supervision, these words were then memorized and written by his companions.
Also, this prophecy in Deuteronomy mentioned that this prophet will speak the words of God in the name of God. If we looked to the Holy Quran, we will find that all its chapters, except Chapter 9, are preceded or begin with the phrase, “In the Name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.”
Another indication (other than the prophecy in Deuteronomy) is that Isaiah ties the messenger connected with Kedar with a new song (a scripture in a new language) to be sung to the Lord (Isaiah 42:10-11). This is mentioned more clearly in the prophecy of Isaiah: “and another tongue, will he speak to this people” (Isaiah 28:11 KJV). Another related point, is that the Quran was revealed in sections over a span of twenty-three years. It is interesting to compare this with Isaiah 28 which speaks of the same thing, “For it is: Do and do, do and do, rule on rule, rule on rule; a little here, a little there.” (Isaiah 28:10).
Note that God has said in the prophecy of Deuteronomy 18, “If anyone does not listen to my words that the prophet speaks in my name, I myself will call him to account.” (Deuteronomy, 18:19). This means that whoever believes in the Bible must believe in what this prophet says, and this prophet is the Prophet Muhammad.
In conclusion, the Quran is a book for the Jews, Allah loves the Jews and sent the Holy Koran as a book of guidance for the Jews.

Is the Jewish Bible or Qur'an anti-Semitic ?
From: http://www.jews-for-allah.com/
The Jewish Bible has more anti-Semitism than the Quran and Gospel combined.
Ahab, Jehoram, Ahaz, and Manasseh are just a few of the Jewish kings of Israel demonized in the Jewish Bible. The are depicted as plotting, scheming, and killing off prophets who spoke against them.
Moses in the Jewish Bible, speaking about Jews of the future says;
"For I know that after my death you will act corruptly and turn from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days, for you will do that which is evil in the sight of the Lord, provoking Him to anger with the work of your hands (Deut. 31:29).
"So all these curses shall come on you and pursue you and overtake you until you are destroyed, because you would not obey the Lord your God by keeping His commandments and His statutes which He commanded you. And they shall become a sign and a wonder on you and your descendants forever (Deut. 28:45-46).
Jeremiah recorded the Lord's warning to Israel: "I will bring evil from the north, and a great destruction. The lion is come up from his thicket ... he is gone forth from his place to make thy land desolate; and thy cities shall be laid waste, without an inhabitant" (Jeremiah 4:6, 7).
From Daniel and Hosea:
"Indeed all Israel has transgressed Thy law and turned aside, not obeying Thy voice; so the curse has been poured out on us, along with the oath which is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, for we have sinned against Him (Dan 9:11).
"Listen to the word of the Lord, O sons of Israel, For the Lord has a case against the inhabitants of the land, Because there is no faithfulness or kindness Or knowledge of God in the land. There is swearing, deception, murder, stealing, and adultery. They employ violence, so that bloodshed follows bloodshed (Hos. 4:1-2).
Isaiah proclaimed: "O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger ... I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets" (Isaiah 10:5).
Isaiah 1:4 'Ah, sinful nation, a people loaded with guilt, a brood of evildoers'
Does the Quran speak any worse about Israel then this ?
Ezekiel decries the sin of the people who had brought idols into the Temple area, where they prayed to other gods and even worshiped the sun. "Hast thou seen this...? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence" (Ezekiel 8:17)
And on and on and on.
If these Hebrew texts had been written in the Quran, they would be added to the long list of other "anti-Jewish" vituperation. But they are from the Jewish Bible, and yet no one claims that the Jewish Bible is anti-Semitic.
Ezekiel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, even Moses - almost every Hebrew prophet are ignored when being anti-Semitic, yet Muhammad is not.
The claim that the Quran is anti-anti-Semitic because it points out Israel's spiritual ills is as absurd as claiming that the Jewish Bible is anti-Jewish because it does the same thing. Both Testaments portray human nature as inherently bad.
The Fact is, Jews in the Quran were spoken highly of and called the best of people, for example, Moses who is a Jew according to Jews is mentioned more times in the Quran than any other Prophet, and he is descried as truthful, obeying, and righteous, as well as other Jews.

If God to add a chapter to the Quran today he would scold Muslims. Their leaders are tyrants, their intellectuals are lazy to awake up Muslims and lead them out of their regression, repression and poverty.
God when attacks the Jews we should feel he attack all of us Jews, Muslims and Christians because the convent was started with the Jews then with Christians and Muslims. If we are not following his commandments he is angry with all of us. We all have to go back to him to win our salvation or his wrath will be upon us all.
I was amazed how many books of atheism entered the shelves of libraries last few weeks and how the west is consuming itself attacking hijab (which is about the same as nuns use to cover their heads). The forceful counter attack by Muslims against the west serve the west agenda. Muslims have to learn that we are not against the west and we have a lot to offer to the west. We have to get smart and win the battle of minds and hearts as we doing that people will move to our side or if they are on the other side they will be supporting us.
Going back to the Jews, no doubt their evil Jews and not the good ones conspire against Christians and Muslims. They talk in the dark with the Arab tyrants and all their conspiracies in the dark to control the world. They do not know the light that Christians and Muslims know. They even oppress other Jews. For years they worked in the dark to oppress me indirectly intimidate me. They are always in the dark and move other people to do their bid. From day one they conspired against Jesus (PBUH) did every thing to harm him, intimidate him and finally put the plot to kill him. For Muslims God raised him and he will be back in the second coming very powerful and victorious. He will declare the kingdom of God in earth that will destroy the kingdom of Satan that the Jews control now.
The Jewish Bible has more anti-Semitism than the Quran and Gospel combined.

"Patriotism" "Machoism," and Profit: Obama the War President
"Patriotism" "Machoism," and Profit: Obama the War President
Younus Abdullah Muhammad
Myriam Miedzian
In 2009, an Afghan-American defense contractor, Hamed Wardak, hired Patton Boggs, a blue chip lobbying firm to push for an extended U.S. presence in Afghanistan. The lobbying firm in turn set up a nonprofit front group -- the Campaign for a U.S. Afghanistan Partnership -- on Wardak's behalf to act as the "face" of a campaign for increased U.S. engagement in Afghanistan.
Here we go again! In late 2002, The Committee for the Liberation of Iraq (CLI) was set up by Bruce Jackson, a former Lockheed Martin vice president. And we all know what happened in March 2003.
The role that weapons manufacturers and others who stand to profit from wars play in fostering unnecessary wars -- by fomenting war scares, libeling those who are anti-war as unpatriotic, bribing government officials both illegally and legally via campaign contributions, influencing much of the media etc. -- has been widely documented and reported by H.C. Englebrecht, author of the aptly titled Merchants of Death, Norman Cousins, author of The Pathology of Power, and many others.
Our long standing tradition of viewing support for war as patriotic and opposition as unpatriotic plays right into the hands of the people who stand to make money from those wars, and leads much of the media to applaud wars, however unnecessary, and to condemn those who are against them. Back in the 19th century, Republican Abraham Lincoln was vilified as a "moral traitor" in the Illinois press because of his opposition to the Mexican-American war.
The other ingredient in the pro-war mix is captured in a recent New York Times article entitled: "The Label Factor: Is Obama a Wimp or Warrior?" Helen Cooper writes,"Like every Democratic president since John F. Kennedy, President Obama is battling the perception that he's a wimp on national security." In what appears to be an escalation in macho criteria, his sending 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan, stepping up drone strikes in Pakistan, and other belligerent measures, are still not enough to establish Obama's macho credentials. He must also learn to talk really tough -- as in stating that we are at war with terrorists -- and he must get rapid results for whatever non-combative steps he takes with Iran, Russia, North Korea, or any other nation that we have conflicts with.
As Cooper points out, the concern about Obama's toughness is not limited to Republicans. For example, Foreign Policy magazine recently had a cover of Mr. Obama next to that "notorious wimp" Jimmy Carter with an equal sign in the middle.
Even though he is Commander in Chief, for a president to not follow the orders of his generals, to resist military action when they call for it, to fail to allocate the funds they request, is probably the most politically high risk action he can take, for it leads to accusations of being unmanly, wimpy, weak on defense and endangering our national security. The implied lack of patriotism is intensified in President Obama's case since 58% of Republicans and 33% of all Americans either believe that he is not a U.S. citizen, or have serious doubts.
And so, unlike President Kennedy who took the risk of not following the numerous military officials and cabinet members who pressed for an air assault on Soviet missile sites in Cuba -- which may well have led to a nuclear holocaust --. President Obama, has chosen to follow military advice on Afghanistan.
By doing so, he, plays right into the hands of Osama Bin Laden who sees the presence of American military forces in Muslim countries as bleeding America to the point of bankruptcy without achieving any positive results. According to his "peacenik" son Omar, Bin Laden was thrilled when George W. Bush became president. Nothing like a highly belligerent president to humiliate and enrage Muslims by sending Christians, Jews, and women to fight and kill Muslims on their own soil. As Bin Laden fully expected, thanks to Dubya, Al Qaeda "franchises" have sprung up in numerous countries on several continents.
The truth is that we are not at war. We are trying to prevent mostly young male terrorists -- who live in countries which include Yemen, Nigeria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Germany, France, England, Holland, Canada, the U.S. -- from blowing us up or gassing us. There is no end in sight as long as macho talk, posturing, and action continue to win over thoughtful, informed long range defense planning.
The combination of mindless "patriotism" and "machoism" goaded on by financial interests, comes at a very high human cost. In his book about the men who ran the Vietnam war, David Halberstam informs us that "the thing Johnson feared the most was... that his manhood was inadequate." When a member of his administration started to "go soft"on the war, Johnson dismissed him with , "hell he has to squat to piss." Result of Johnson's need to prove himself macho: approximately 60,000 Americans and 2 million Vietnamese killed.
Dubya with his "manly" swagger, tough talk, and extreme lack of empathy, was the very embodiment of mindless macho -- at least when it came to risking the lives of others. Result of this tough guy presidency: so far approximately 5,300 Americans and according to the very lowest estimates,100,000 Iraqis have been killed. Approximately two million Iraqis have fled the country.
The macho-patriotism intimidation factor allows the Pentagon to enjoy enormous and largely unquestioned budgets. The revolving door between the military and weapons manufacturers facilitates pushing war in order to make big bucks. Unlike questioning government expenditures on health, education, infrastructure, the president and members of congress, as well as the mainstream media, know that seriously questioning the Pentagon budget is tabu.
In 2008, an internal audit revealed that Pentagon expenditures included close to $15 billion in Iraq war goods and services that were unaccounted for. Many members of congress expressed their intense shock and dismay, but this did not stop them for going on to vote for increases in military spending. In his State of the Union speech, President Obama called for a three year freeze on many domestic programs. At the same time he has asked congress for an extra $33 billion for the Pentagon, to add to the $708 billion budget already approved for next year. Not to worry; he'll get it.

Obama is like Bush no difference. Both are two different presidents with same manipulation by the wicked Jews and the war machine that make the profits and protect the tyrants of the world. Both play the good Christians who go to church and ask God's guidance. In fact they are two faces of the same coin. They working for the cabala anti-Christ Jews that planning for their anti-Christ to control the world. It is time for good Christians to wake up. There is only on messiah Jesus Christ.

Israel rains fire on Gaza with phosphorus shells
Sheera Frenkel and Michael Evans
London Times
Monday, Jan 5, 2008
Israel is believed to be using controversial white phosphorus shells to screen its assault on the heavily populated Gaza Strip yesterday. The weapon, used by British and US forces in Iraq, can cause horrific burns but is not illegal if used as a smokescreen.
As the Israeli army stormed to the edges of Gaza City and the Palestinian death toll topped 500, the tell-tale shells could be seen spreading tentacles of thick white smoke to cover the troops’ advance. “These explosions are fantastic looking, and produce a great deal of smoke that blinds the enemy so that our forces can move in,” said one Israeli security expert. Burning blobs of phosphorus would cause severe injuries to anyone caught beneath them and force would-be snipers or operators of remote-controlled booby traps to take cover. Israel admitted using white phosphorus during its 2006 war with Lebanon.
The use of the weapon in the Gaza Strip, one of the world’s mostly densely population areas, is likely to ignite yet more controversy over Israel’s offensive, in which more than 2,300 Palestinians have been wounded.
(ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW)
The Geneva Treaty of 1980 stipulates that white phosphorus should not be used as a weapon of war in civilian areas, but there is no blanket ban under international law on its use as a smokescreen or for illumination. However, Charles Heyman, a military expert and former major in the British Army, said: “If white phosphorus was deliberately fired at a crowd of people someone would end up in The Hague. White phosphorus is also a terror weapon. The descending blobs of phosphorus will burn when in contact with skin.”
The Israeli military last night denied using phosphorus, but refused to say what had been deployed. “Israel uses munitions that are allowed for under international law,” said Captain Ishai David, spokesman for the Israel Defence Forces. “We are pressing ahead with the second stage of operations, entering troops in the Gaza Strip to seize areas from which rockets are being launched into Israel.”

The God Chosen people are not the evil Jews but the good Jews. Those evil Jews would mercilessly oppress and kill. They arrange every thing with the evil Jews in America. Do you remember when Gaza was terrorized and the evil Jewish media in America would not cover the war and the Obama would keep silent and let them finish the atrocities. The evil Jews as well won the silence of the corrupt Arab tyrants who promised to by Israel and the Jews to protect their chairs if they would keep coward and silent. God will stand with the just in the end of time and I am not scared of the evil Jews, the Arab tyrants or any evil force in the world. If I would die I will die as a man and I will see my enemies in hell in the day of judgement.

Do Jews Control The World?
From: http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/article.asp?ID=7330
by Henry Makow Ph.D.
This question is the proverbial elephant in the room, the dysfunction that members of the human family dare not mention.
So when Richard Dawkins recently remarked that the Israel Lobby controls American foreign policy, Daniel Finkelstein, the Jewish editor of the "London Times" "Comments" heard Nazi storm troopers banging on his door.
"So Dawkins, a liberal hero, believes, er, that Jews control world power." Finkelstein sighed. "And, judging from "The Guardian," it is now a part of mainstream debate to say so. Perhaps you think I am over-reacting, but I am a little bit frightened. All I can manage is, Oh My God."
Finkelstein's outburst is ironic. Here is a Jewish media gatekeeper, employed by a Jewish press magnate (Rupert Murdoch), shocked at the mention of Jewish power, persuading the public that the very suggestion is in bad taste.
No one could accuse him of being objective.
"The Times" is not just any newspaper. It has been the voice of the British establishment for more than 100 years. Along with Chatham House (the RIIA) and Tavistock, it is a principal instrument of the cabal that governs England and most of the world. That cabal consists of Jewish central bankers and British (European and American) aristocracy united by money, marriage and a belief in the occult (Freemasonry.)
ANTI-SEMITISM
My objection is to the term "the Jews" when obviously we are talking about very rich and powerful Jews who have intermarried with rich and powerful Gentiles. Sid the tailor does not control the world. I do not control the world.
We are talking about rich Jews who most other Jews wouldn’t even recognize: they are Freemasons. They worship Lucifer and think God is evil.
I represent that silent majority of average Jews, who have assimilated, and support the national interest. Rich Jews will want ordinary Jews to take the fall when opposition grows to their predatory agenda.
Anti-Semitism never made any headway in Europe in the Nineteenth and early Twentieth Century until rich Jews decided to sponsor it. There is no way Hitler would have come to power without the backing of world finance. Hitler was "Time Magazine" "Man of the Year" in 1938. Stalin, another Freemason created by the Money Power, took the honor in 1939. Hey let's have a war between the two!
The central bankers owned I.G. Farben, the backbone of the Nazi war machine. Max Warburg was a Director until 1938. In March 1941 the Warburg family and employees were spirited out of Nazi Europe by the SS. Hitler so hated the Jewish bankers that he had them escorted to safety in a private train.
Assimilated and religious Jews who did not serve the bankers' interests were the main victims of Nazi persecution. Zionists, on the other hand, were spared. These same Zionists put ordinary Jews on trains to Auschwitz telling them they were being "resettled."
If the past is a guide, in an economic or social breakdown, the bankers will focus blame on their pawns, Zionists or neo cons, or preferably Jews in general. This is why patriotic Jews must disassociate from the bankers and their minions now.
WHAT IS ANTI-SEMITISM?
Anti-Semitism might be called anti-imperialism. At heart, it is opposition to the plan of the central bankers, based in the City of London, to "gradually absorb the wealth of the world" and establish a dictatorship masked as "world government."
This involves stupefying and degrading society through faux education, porn and violence; and bankrupting and brutalizing us through war, pandemics and domestic repression.
It involves destroying "all collective forces except our own" which means destroying all race, religion, (God), nation and family. They use social engineering like diversity, feminism, multiculturalism and homosexuality to accomplish these aims. (I like homosexuals & different races; I just don't think they should be used as a weapon.)
The bankers place cooperative Jews in positions of control. The stigma against anti-Semitism is a form of mind control used to immunize their agents and their agenda against criticism. The Holocaust is used callously for this mind control: to establish victimhood and guilt.
If we think of anti-Semitism in terms of opposition to the bankers' political and cultural policy rather than to a race, it can be justified. The key is to distinguish between Jews who advance the New World Order and those who do not.
JEWS ARE THE BIGGEST DUPES
Socialism and Communism are Jewish in origin, membership and character. Throughout the past century, naïve Jews flocked to the Red banner. The clarion call: "Capitalists have all the wealth. Communism will result in equality."
This clarion call was just bait. The richest people in the world created & financed Communism; their agenda was to further concentrate wealth. Socialism is the same thing on a smaller scale, a way of electing world banker lackeys and increasing government power. (Socialism may have some intrinsic merit but this is not why they back it.)
The false conflict between "public" and "private"; Left and Right; government and free enterprise; keeps the public in a political trance.
Jews like Noam Chomsky and Naomi Klein uphold this false dichotomy. They blame everything on the private sector, on corporations, on US imperialism. Left versus Right. Government vs Free Enterprise.
The truth is the corporations she vilifies own both her publisher and the politicians Right and Left. Public vs Private is meaningless today because Private controls Public (through debt.)
In a recent profile Ms. Klein says: “I don't question being a leftist any more than I would question being a Jew – it's the culture I got taught as a kid.” Her upbringing, she believes, is responsible for "The Shock Doctrine's" theme of resistance against the privatized world."
The day when Naomi Klein advocates government take control of its credit, or traces the Mossad role in 9-11, will be the day she disappears from the mass media. She is an example of what many socialist Jewish dupes do best; control the debate, enrich themselves and wax self-righteous. In fact, they are the company union.
CONCLUSION
In 2004, I wrote: "Anti-Semitism is not an irrational hatred or sickness in the Gentile soul, as Jews imagine. It is a healthy defense mechanism of mainly Christian and Moslem nations, cultures, races and religions that are threatened by a gradual and insidious process of extinction (i.e. world government.)"
If anti-Semitism is opposition to the world banker agenda, rather than to all Jews heedless of their role, then I see anti-Semitism as a healthy sign.
We cannot let them use this disingenuous ploy to outlaw Resistance to Tyranny. Jews...everyone... must not be manipulated. Its not Jews nor Gentiles but Satanists who "control the world."

Dr. Makow, I’m half-Jew who has been awakening from the mental programming for the past couple years ever since I started investigating 9/11. Your site has always provided great articles that helped expand my quest from just “9/11 Truth” to so much more.
I found the recent article on Jews owning the world quite well-articulated, and it occurred to me that you may be interested in an anti-Zionist song my band just recorded called “Pavlov’s Jews.”

It addresses the blind obedience the average Jew gives to Zionism, Holocaust guilt, and the general burdens we’re forced to endure from infancy. Now, it is a crazy thrash metal song which may be too intense for a middle-aged guy, so here’s also the lyrics;)
Pavlov’s Jews
“Never again” and “Never forget”
words that sanction any dark deed.
They use the Holocaust
to justify their crimes
And you’re too afraid
to challenge their lies
Zionist criminals
cloak themselves in Judaism,
banking on credulity
they hand-feed you propaganda.
Members of the Diaspora
bonded by burden not by blood
We are made insane by the
mountains of martyrs
dumped upon our poor blank slates.
Don’t research history
just believe what they say
Like a good little dog
they know that you’ll obey
(bell jingles)
Pavlov’s Jews
Pavlov’s Jews
Bark when they say bark
Jump when they say jump
Don’t think for yourself
Leave that up to someone else
Pavlov’s Jews
Pavlov’s Jews
You don’t see the danger
lurking in the distance
We’ll die for their crimes
they’ll hide and survive
They scream anti-Semite
and then it’s time to hate
When they cry poor
you rush to donate.
The guilt oozes
through your veins
Praise your masters
tugging the reigns.
Crushed by the burden
of historical guilt
lifetime of good deeds
impossible to surmount.
We never made a commitment
but always feel obligated
haunted by infamous slaughters
like Granada in 1066.
Pogroms and massacres
Details to be memorized
“By deception thou
shalt do war”
Is Mossad at the door?
Attack! Attack!
We’re always under attack
But maybe there’s a reason
every hundred years
some country kicks our ass!
Refuse to play
the part scripted for a Jew
commit a worse sin
than a Christian, Muslim, or Hindu.
But maybe this generation
will not be afraid
maybe we’ll see who
we truly ought to hate.

This question is the proverbial elephant in the room, the dysfunction that members of the human family dare not mention.
So when Richard Dawkins recently remarked that the Israel Lobby controls American foreign policy, Daniel Finkelstein, the Jewish editor of the "London Times" "Comments" heard Nazi storm troopers banging on his door.
"So Dawkins, a liberal hero, believes, er, that Jews control world power." Finkelstein sighed. "And, judging from "The Guardian," it is now a part of mainstream debate to say so. Perhaps you think I am over-reacting, but I am a little bit frightened. All I can manage is, Oh My God."
Finkelstein's outburst is ironic. Here is a Jewish media gatekeeper, employed by a Jewish press magnate (Rupert Murdoch), shocked at the mention of Jewish power, persuading the public that the very suggestion is in bad taste.
No one could accuse him of being objective.
"The Times" is not just any newspaper. It has been the voice of the British establishment for more than 100 years. Along with Chatham House (the RIIA) and Tavistock, it is a principal instrument of the cabal that governs England and most of the world. That cabal consists of Jewish central bankers and British (European and American) aristocracy united by money, marriage and a belief in the occult (Freemasonry.)
ANTI-SEMITISM
My objection is to the term "the Jews" when obviously we are talking about very rich and powerful Jews who have intermarried with rich and powerful Gentiles. Sid the tailor does not control the world. I do not control the world.
We are talking about rich Jews who most other Jews wouldn’t even recognize: they are Freemasons. They worship Lucifer and think God is evil.
I represent that silent majority of average Jews, who have assimilated, and support the national interest. Rich Jews will want ordinary Jews to take the fall when opposition grows to their predatory agenda.
Anti-Semitism never made any headway in Europe in the Nineteenth and early Twentieth Century until rich Jews decided to sponsor it. There is no way Hitler would have come to power without the backing of world finance. Hitler was "Time Magazine" "Man of the Year" in 1938. Stalin, another Freemason created by the Money Power, took the honor in 1939. Hey let's have a war between the two!
The central bankers owned I.G. Farben, the backbone of the Nazi war machine. Max Warburg was a Director until 1938. In March 1941 the Warburg family and employees were spirited out of Nazi Europe by the SS. Hitler so hated the Jewish bankers that he had them escorted to safety in a private train.
Assimilated and religious Jews who did not serve the bankers' interests were the main victims of Nazi persecution. Zionists, on the other hand, were spared. These same Zionists put ordinary Jews on trains to Auschwitz telling them they were being "resettled."
If the past is a guide, in an economic or social breakdown, the bankers will focus blame on their pawns, Zionists or neo cons, or preferably Jews in general. This is why patriotic Jews must disassociate from the bankers and their minions now.
WHAT IS ANTI-SEMITISM?
Anti-Semitism might be called anti-imperialism. At heart, it is opposition to the plan of the central bankers, based in the City of London, to "gradually absorb the wealth of the world" and establish a dictatorship masked as "world government."
This involves stupefying and degrading society through faux education, porn and violence; and bankrupting and brutalizing us through war, pandemics and domestic repression.
It involves destroying "all collective forces except our own" which means destroying all race, religion, (God), nation and family. They use social engineering like diversity, feminism, multiculturalism and homosexuality to accomplish these aims. (I like homosexuals & different races; I just don't think they should be used as a weapon.)
The bankers place cooperative Jews in positions of control. The stigma against anti-Semitism is a form of mind control used to immunize their agents and their agenda against criticism. The Holocaust is used callously for this mind control: to establish victimhood and guilt.
If we think of anti-Semitism in terms of opposition to the bankers' political and cultural policy rather than to a race, it can be justified. The key is to distinguish between Jews who advance the New World Order and those who do not.
JEWS ARE THE BIGGEST DUPES
Socialism and Communism are Jewish in origin, membership and character. Throughout the past century, naïve Jews flocked to the Red banner. The clarion call: "Capitalists have all the wealth. Communism will result in equality."
This clarion call was just bait. The richest people in the world created & financed Communism; their agenda was to further concentrate wealth. Socialism is the same thing on a smaller scale, a way of electing world banker lackeys and increasing government power. (Socialism may have some intrinsic merit but this is not why they back it.)
The false conflict between "public" and "private"; Left and Right; government and free enterprise; keeps the public in a political trance.
Jews like Noam Chomsky and Naomi Klein uphold this false dichotomy. They blame everything on the private sector, on corporations, on US imperialism. Left versus Right. Government vs Free Enterprise.
The truth is the corporations she vilifies own both her publisher and the politicians Right and Left. Public vs Private is meaningless today because Private controls Public (through debt.)

The day when Naomi Klein advocates government take control of its credit, or traces the Mossad role in 9-11, will be the day she disappears from the mass media. She is an example of what many socialist Jewish dupes do best; control the debate, enrich themselves and wax self-righteous. In fact, they are the company union.
