Dichtung und Wahrheit: "Keine Judenpogrome in der islamischen Welt vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg"
von Thomas Baader

Auf der Website des Kölner Stadtanzeigers findet man ein Interview mit reichlich bizarren Behauptungen des "Türkei-Experen" Günter Seufert.

Dichtung:

"Seufert: Der Antisemitismus, der sich im Islam findet, kommt aus Europa. Die Judenfeindlichkeit im Islam war nie so ausgeprägt wie die europäisch-christliche. Grundsätzlich wurden Juden im Islam besser behandelt als im christlichen Europa. Vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg gab es weder Judenpogrome, Verfolgungen oder gar einen Holocaust in der islamischen Welt."

Wahrheit:

"During the Golden age of Jewish culture in Spain, beginning in the 9th century, Islamic Spain was more tolerant towards Jews. In the 11th century, however, there were several Muslim pogroms against Jews; notably those that occurred in Cordoba in 1011 and in Granada in 1066. In the 1066 Granada massacre, the first large pogrom on European soil, a Muslim mob crucified the Jewish vizier Joseph ibn Naghrela and massacred about 4,000 Jews. In 1033 about 6,000 Jews were killed in Fez, Morocco, by Muslim mobs. Mobs in Fez murdered thousands of Jews in 1276, and again, leaving only 11 alive, in 1465.
[...]
There were pogroms too in the nineteenth century in the Arab and Islamic worlds. There was a massacre of Jews in Baghdad in 1828. There was another massacre in Barfurush in 1867. In 1839, in the eastern Persian city of Meshed, a mob burst into the Jewish Quarter, burned the synagogue, and destroyed the Torah scrolls. This is known as the Allahdad incident. It was only by forcible conversion that a massacre was averted."
