Vandals torched the mosque in northern Israel in a suspected revenge attack by right-wing extremists that sparked a 'furious' response from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.  EPA/MENAHEM KAHANA / POOLIsrael – Chief Sephardic Rabbi Shlomo Amar on Monday said that the mosque arson that took place in Tuba Zangria overnight Sunday may have been a blood libel, Army Radio reported on Monday, citing an interview on a haredi radio station.

    “We have experience in these things in the past. We cannot be sure that there was not some malicious plan to stir up hatred between Jews and Arabs,” Amar was quoted as saying.

    What an absolutely inane moronic comment. Sadly an unsurprising viewpoint considering the thing we have in common with the extremist Arab world is the belief in conspiracy theories when we can’t face the truth. Wake up folks. The stupidity and violence will only get worse

    Didn’t they arrest some people already?

    Maybe you are interpreting his comments exactly backwards, I think he meant a blood libel by the YIDDEN who committed this despicable act that would have triggered hatred by the arabs against jews and stirred up more fighting and thereby destroying any chance for a peace settlement. Amar is not blind and he would never make such a dumb comment that somehow the act was the result of palestinians burning down their own mosque and blaming it on jews.

    Theories are cheap, but a good story needs a plausible motive. Barak and his lefties want to sell Israel to the Arabs. He already sold off Gaza. The Israeli public needs to be fired up against the right wingers to such an extent, that Israel will be prepared to give up East Jerusalem to stop the impending intifada, arranged between barak and Abas. A good start is getting some mercenary leftists to fire up the mosque, thus justifying riots and forcing a surrender.

    Arabs do not love life, nor love their children the way normal people do. (See Hagar distancing herself from Ishmael) They are a cold cruel vicious people (pereh adam) who would readily sacrifice their children to Molech as suicide bombers, and celebrate their death. With this said, why is it so hard to believe that they set these fires themselves to make teh Jews look bad?

    Of course. If it makes Jews look bad Jews didn’t do it. It was a plot by Gentiles to destroy their own property and places of worship to make Jews look bad.

    Got i.

    The mosque they torched was the one “they wouldn’t be caught dead in”. It’s not the one they attend services at. That’s the one down the street.

    His statement is on a par with the nitwits who think George Bush, or the Mossad, was behind September 11. Get real. We really have to clean up our own house.
