| 2022-02-02 |
” ’Cause Jooos are icky.” I vote Israel should give them what they want, and take their normalization elsewhere. [BenarNews] Indonesian Moslem groups, including an influential scholars’ body, are demanding the closure of a Holocaust museum that opened last week, with some saying it is part of Israel’s attempts to normalize relations with Jakarta and its occupation of Paleostinian lands.Thank you, President Biden. The first permanent exhibition and museum in Indonesia devoted to the memory of victims of the Holocaust opened in North Sulawesi province on Jan. 27, and is housed inside Indonesia’s lone synagogue.Indonesia only has one? The opening occurred amid reported Israeli overtures to establish ties with the world’s largest Moslem-majority nation. Indonesia, a staunch supporter of the Paleostinian cause, has long refused to open diplomatic ties with the Jewish State."We demand any exhibition be stopped and the museum be cancelled discontinued," said Sudarnoto Abdul Hakim, the head of foreign relations and international cooperation at the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI), the country’s semi-official Islamic authority. |
