In a TV interview, Jordanian sociologist Muhammad Ayasrah said that "Judaism has been a hateful and racist religion throughout history" and that "the Jews are known to be the racists, or even the founders of racism in the world." Ayasrah, who was presented by Prime TV as the "Director of Foreign and International Relations in the Arab Union for Academic, Scientific, and Cultural Skills," further said that "If we examine the history of the Jews, we find that it is a history full of killing, plundering, usurping, and racism - and abhorrent, murderous, and loathsome racism at that." The interview aired on March 5.
Muhammad Ayasrah: "Throughout history, ever since the days of the Prophet Muhammed, there has been no theological conflict or clash between Christianity and Islam, whereas Judaism has been a hateful and racist religion throughout history. Jews are known for their racism. They keep to themselves, and they do not tolerate the existence of any other person or religion, alongside the Zionist entity – no matter where, even in the West. The Jews are known to be the racists, or even the founders of racism in the world."
News Anchor: "The Zionist Jews, you mean."
Muhammad Ayasrah: "Yes, of course. As is documented by history and as we know full well, ever since the creation of the Jewish State, they have tried to gather the largest possible number of Jews in Palestine, in order to exert pressure on the other religions there, including Christianity.
