Istanbul Muslim Brotherhood Conference Stages Comedy Sketch In Which Palestinian Tells Jew: Although Drinking Blood Is Prohibited In Islam, Your Blood Has A Special Taste

An antisemitic sketch was staged during the "Flood of the Free" conference hosted by the Muslim Brotherhood in Istanbul. The narrator in the sketch says that even though Islam prohibits drinking blood, and the blood of Jews is filthy, their blood had a special taste. He said that Jews are good at lying, deceiving, and falsifying texts. The narrator added that the land of Palestine must be purified from the Jews, by a flood, the "Flood of the Free." The character of the Jew was represented by a man speaking in an Israeli accent and wearing the approximation of an Orthodox Jewish outfit. A character representing Hamas’s Al-Qassam Brigades said to the Israeli-Jew: “You are a Satanic seed, planted by the occupation, and we will uproot you.” Video of the sketch was uploaded to Mohammed Alnajjar on YouTube on May 19, 2024.

Other speakers at the conference were leader of Hamas abroad Khaled Mashal and Indian Islamic scholar Maulana Salman Hussaini Nadwi.

Narrator: "All their lives, they have been making us understand, proving to us, and planting in our brains the idea that we must not even think about fighting America, because this is beyond our capabilities, beyond what one can even imagine, even though our Lord says: 'Prepare for them whatever force and steeds of war you can.'"

"The world only recognizes the strong. This is what Gaza has done. Gaza has stood alone against the entire unjust world, in order to prove the betrayal and treachery of [our] rulers, who have become addicted to humiliation and disgrace. Gaza has declared in a clear and reverberating way that it has rights and the resistance..."

Jew: "Rights? What rights are you talking about? Our God says: 'To thy seed will I give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river Euphrates.' This right you claim belongs to our God."

Narrator: "This is what they are good at. This is their method: Lying, deceiving, falsifying texts. Forget about them. Inshallah, we will live to see the land purified of them. The land can only be purified by a flood –"

Al-Qassam Brigades Fighter: "By the ‘Flood of the Free' that will sweep away all the treachery and forgery."

Jew: "No, forget about them. Stay with me. I love you. I came here so you would know the truth. The truth is that we lived on this land many many years ago. Then those villains came and drove us out, and the land remained in ruins with no people living on it. So we returned and bought the land, the Holy Land that was not inhabited by any people. Why are you angry with us? I don’t understand."

Narrator: "’We... We...’ I want to know what are you exactly?"

Jew: "We are the Jews."

Narrator: "Are you a religion? A faith. Tell me exactly."

Jew: "We... We... We are the Jews."

Al-Qassam Brigades Fighter: "There is no Jewish race. There are no specific genes identified with the Jews."

Narrator: "The Israelites, who were the sons of Jacob, have all gone. They disappeared a long time ago, having assimilated in humanity. If not for the British Mandate, you would have no presence here."

Al-Qassam Brigades Fighter: "You are a Satanic seed, planted by the occupation, and we will uproot you."

Al-Qassam Brigades Fighter: "Every [Hamas commander] has stories that could fill books and TV screens."

Jew: "Sadly, they have all drunk from my blood."

Narrator: "Right, brother. Although drinking blood is prohibited in Islam, and although your blood is the filthiest upon the Earth, this blood has a [special] taste.

"Humiliating you and the occupation, and fighting every oppressor on the face of the Earth is the solution for the support of our cause."
