Dangerously rewriting history



Exclusive: Pamela Geller exposes manufactured Muslim myths presented as fact

Story continues below advertisement

Today we are at a point where history and facts must be “erased” and
rewritten, because truth is racist-Islamophobic-anti-Muslim bigotry.
Historical revisionism has taken on a new life, as history is scrubbed
and manufactured Muslim myths are presented as fact.

Pioneering historian Bat Ye’or recently visited the British Museum
and found that “Palestinian propaganda and its cohorts of EU
bowdlerizing troops have also visited the Museum – which is why all the
information notes pertaining to the artifacts that mention the history
of the Kingdoms of Judea and Israel now also mention the word
“Palestine” – even 3,000 years B.C. – while the name was only given to
the land in 135 A.D. by Roman Emperor Hadrian when he incorporated it
into the Roman Empire.”

This is beyond depressing; it’s shocking. The “Big Lie” Nazi-esque
narrative has been thrust upon every corner of culture, education and
“dialogue” in the weak and subdued West. There is no escape from this
Islamic imperialism. Shariah enforcement extends far beyond the obvious
attempts to silence critics of jihad and Shariah. The scrubbing of the
270 million victims of jihadi wars, land appropriations, cultural
annihilations and enslavements from academic texts has been going on for
well over a decade. The demonization and smearing of politicians who
dare speak against the most extreme and radical ideology on the face of
the earth is virtually automatic at this point, as is the self-enforcing
Shariah compliance of the mainstream media. And now, history itself is
being rewritten.

There is no “historical” Palestine – it’s Israel. The Romans wanted
to punish the Jews after their defeat at Masada in the first century.
The Roman emperor Hadrian meant to erase the name of Israel and Judah,
so that there would be no memory of the country that belonged to that
Jewish people. He wanted a name that would humiliate the Jews, and found
that in an extinct people called the “Philistines,” the enemies of the
Israelites.

Some things never change – but it is fitting that the namesake of
today’s “Palestinians” is the Philistines. And they do indeed mirror the
savagery of that ancient and now-extinct people.

Nor is the British Museum alone. 1001 Muslim Inventions, a traveling museum exhibit,
has appeared all over the West to huge acclaim. (A half-million
visitors attended it in Los Angeles alone.) It has indoctrinated
hundreds of thousands of children into a rosy and romanticized view of
Islam that makes them less appreciative of their own culture’s
achievements and more complacent about Islamization in the West.

J. Christian Adams
visited this exhibit. He recounted that the exhibit presents a Muslim
inventor, Abbas Ibn Firnas, as one who “dared to dream man could fly
1,000 years before the Wright Brothers.” Firnas didn’t actually succeed
in flying, of course, or come close to inventing the airplane. Adams
writes:

Notice all of the tricks of language. He was the first “who tried to fly,” and “passed into legend,” “more or less unharmed,” the “flying machine,” (implying moving parts), and “apparently gliding for some distance.”

The Jews, especially the young ‘uns had better snap out. The erasing of your country from the media reality is only the paperwork to remove you from REAL reality.

“Pioneering historian Bat Ye’or recently visited the British Museum and found that “Palestinian propaganda and its cohorts of EU bowdlerizing troops have also visited the Museum …”
Bat Ye’or misses one very important link between British imperialism and it’s penchant for Islam.
British imperialists knew the history of the Jews, but reduced the importance of Jewish history by giving parallel stature to the so-called “Palestine” and “Palestinians” as of equal historical value to all visitors.
Muslims do not run the British Museum; British people do. They could have easily corrected their errors in history-telling!
Bat Ye’or has probably been too much charmed by a British cup of tea to ignore the fact that British imperialists were all along complicit on the rehabilitation of Islamic ideologies from late 18th century to this day and moment.”

The really funny part is that Philistines were Greeks.

Who funded the Muslim Inventions traveling show? NASA on a directive from Obaminator?

Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it…but those who write history…control it.
We ALL need to wise up just a little bit on our history and NOT let it be changed by the “savages”.

I forgot to add…excellent article. It shows that there is NO extreme islam will not go to, to advance this, er…”cult” of theirs’. By-the-way, if you look up “cult” and how they work…islam fits right in.
