Medina Was A Jewish City
Did you know that the Saudi holy city of Medina was actually a Jewish city before Islam was ever founded?

Today, we hear a lot of talk about how Jerusalem should be split, – one half surrendered to Muslims, while the other half remains a mixed Muslim/Jewish city in Israel.  If this is the appropriate diplomatic way of turning back the clock, and ensuring peace between Muslims and Jews, then why not try out this solution with Medina first–a city that was originally Jewish?

Although the fact is little publicized, the Arab world’s second holiest city, Medina, was one of the allegedly “purely Arab” cities that actually was first settled by Jewish tribes. 1 History shows that Judaism was already well established in Medina two centuries before Muhammad’s birth.

On page 40, of his book “Arabs In History”, Bernard Lewis writes:

“The city of Medina, some 280 miles north of Mecca, had originally been settled by Jewish tribes from the north, … The comparative richness of the town attracted an infiltration of pagan Arabs who came at first as clients of the Jews and ultimately succeeded in dominating them. Medina, or, as it was known before Islam, Yathrib, had no form of stable government at all. The town was tom by the feuds of the rival Arab tribes of Aus and Khazraj, with the Jews maintaining an uneasy balance of power. The latter, engaged mainly in agriculture and handicrafts, were economically and culturally superior to the Arabs, and were consequently disliked…. as soon as the Arabs had attained unity through the agency of Muhammad they attacked and ultimately eliminated the Jews.”

The number of Jews in Medina swelled following the Roman invasion of Israel – the subsequent expulsion of its Jewish population, and from Jews fleeing persecution in Persia2.  These refugees were assimilated into the three major Jewish tribes in Medina: the Banu Nadir, the Banu Quynuqua, and the Banu Quraiza.  When these Jews resettled in Medina, they took with them a superior knowledge of agriculture, irrigation, and industry. Homeless Jewish refugees in the course of a few generations became large landowners in the country.  In addition, the refugees who had come from Israel quickly became the controllers of its finance and trade.  This new Jewish prosperity also quickly became a direct challenge to the Arabs of the region, particularly the Quraysh at Mecca (of which Mohammad was a member) and other Arab tribes in Medina.

According to Alfred Guillaume,

At the dawn of Islam the Jews dominated the economic life of the Hijaz [Arabia]. They held all the best land … ; at Medina they must have formed at least half of the population. There was also a Jewish settlement to the north of the Gulf of Aqaba…. What is important is to note that the Jews of the Hijaz made many proselytes [or converts] among the Arab tribesmen.5

To add fuel to this fire, the Jews, strong in their faith in G-d, refused to accept Mohammad’s claims to be the final prophet.  In

EU politician demands that the continent rise up and stop ‘Islamic Testosterone Bombs’

Dutch politician Geert Wilders has called for all male asylum seekers in Europe to be kept within asylum centres to prevent Muslim “testosterone bombs” from waging “sexual jihad”.

Referencing the mass sexual attacks which have taken place in recent weeks across Europe, Mr Wilders said that European women and children would only feel safe when the Islamic asylum seekers, who come from a very different culture, are kept off the streets.

“Recently thousands of Arab men sexually attacked, humiliated and raped hundreds of women. All women are fair game,” he said, in a video posted to YouTube. “I called the perpetrators “testosterone bombs”. We have seen what they are capable of. It’s sexual terrorism – a sexual jihad, and it is happening all over Europe.

“Everywhere we are now confronting a rape epidemic,” he continued. “And in many countries, the authorities tried to keep the terrible news hidden, but they no longer succeed in doing so. The genie is out of the bottle.”

According to the Gatestone Institute, the rape of German women by migrant men hasalready become “commonplace”. They highlight a number of cases, including the rape of a 16 year old girl in Bavaria, to which police responded by warning parents not to let their children out unaccompanied, and a rape which occurred in June but was not mentioned by the police for three months for fear of giving “legitimacy to critics of mass migration”.

The German police also tried to suppress reports of the ‘taharrush’ attack in Cologne on New Year’s Eve, and were only thwarted thanks to multiple reports on social media.

Similarly, the Austrian Police allegedly deliberately covered up sex attacks in Salzburg on New Years Eve; after victims came forward to the local press, the police claimed that they had stayed silent to protect the victims.

Meanwhile the Swedish police and media have been accused of covering up a series of attacks over the last two years, which occurred at a popular music festival for young people in Stockholm. 38 reports of rape and sexual
