Deconstructing the mythology of Islam’s historical love for the Jews. From Legacy of Islamic Anti-Semitism:
The Legacy of Islamic Anti-Semitism by Andrew Bostom refutes the claim that Islam, unlike Christianity, had not entertained a systematic persecution of the Jews, with a well-tailored survey of the theological, historical and juridical origins of Islamic anti-Semitism.
A trove of anti-Jewish stereotypes that have become the Sharia-based uncontested “truth” about the People of the Book are invariably cited in sermons during Friday prayers, thus assuring their universal diffusion among Muslim constituents and the constant poisoning of the souls of young and adult Muslims alike, something that renders their fundamentally negative attitudes to Jews and Israel unchangeable.
See also Islam’s History of Anti-Semitism:
The historical documents make clear that, from day one, Jews and Christians have been systematically treated as second-class citizens, “dhimmis,” in the regions conquered by Islam.
Even if there were some sort of Andalusian “golden age” – as academics are fond of reminiscing and insisting – that’s exactly all it was, an “age,” an “aberration.” Far from being a by-product of Western anti-Semitism or the creation of Israel, animosity toward the Jews has a firm doctrinal base tracing back to Islam’s most authoritative texts.
