Anti-Defamation League says conspiracy theory of Jewish-controlled Pope growing in Mu

[Holly3278]

New York, Sep. 29, 2006 (CNA) - A report from the Jewish Anti-Defamation League (ADL) claims that cartoons and editorials published in the Arab/Muslim world are claiming Pope Benedict XVI’s comments at the University of Regensburg were part of a Jewish anti-Islamic conspiracy.

What can we do to counter such a strange conspiracy theory?

Oh yes, the Jews are controlling the Pope. How could I have forgotten.

When should the Jews be finished the supercomptuter they will use to take over the world?

Well…given how much they hate secularism…I frankly am a little surprised that the Pope has been so hard on radical Islam.

Yes, they are bad. Yes, they are violent and evil. But I honestly respect them much more than secular relativists.

If it were a choice (and luckily we don’t need to side with either) between siding with the muslim terrorists against secular europe, or siding with secular europe against the muslims…I’d honestly side with the muslims who are willing to die for (what they believe to be) God, then those europeans who seem to hate Him.

I think it’s ridiculous to say that the Pope gave that specific speech due to Jews…but I have always been a bit turned off by how cozy the Vatican has gotten with the Zionists.

I think that this conspiracy theory is so ridiculous. It makes me wonder if those Islamic governments aren’t feeding their people a bunch of propaganda.

Murdering people is wrong. Terrorism is contrary to the most basic principles of Christianity - it can not be justified and should never be tolerated, supported or encouraged.

Since the people promoting such ideas probably do not live in the same nations as most of us here, there seems little we can do. Even if we wanted to present a voice of reason in a Muslim forum (similar to the one here) its unlikely that we speak Arabic or whatever language is being used.

The media ignores it. The CNN or the communistic news network can’t get anything right. The media was gloating when the Muslim protesters were protesting. Thus advocating anti-semitism. That’s the religion of peace for ya.
