Ali Nourizadeh, of the Centre for Arab and Iranian Studies, said: "This aspect of Mr Ahmadinejad's background explains a lot about him. "Every family that converts into a different religion takes a new identity by condemning their old faith. "By making anti-Israeli statements he is trying to shed any suspicions about his Jewish connections. He feels vulnerable in a radical Shia society." If the theory is true his family converted into Islam when he was four years old. Regardless of whether he has jewish blood he's been a radical anti-western, anti-Israel shia-muslim and served in the Revolutionary Guards militia his entire life.
You bet. It's well known that if parents change religion anytime after a child turns 3 years old it has a profound effect on the child.
That's actually a myth. The standard version of the story focuses on Hitler's paternal grandfather. Hitler's father's mother is said to have worked as a maid for a Jew and there were rumours that Hitler's father was actually the employer's biological child. No evidence for this has ever been found. ... MOREOVER: Ian Kershaw, "Hitler ...", Vol. 1, pp. 7-9 dismisses the story as nonsense. At the time when Hitler's grandmother worked as a servant in Graz for a family supposedly called Frankenberger (the 1830s) Jews were completely banned from living in Graz (and the whole province of Steiermark - Styria). What's more, according to Kershaw, study of directories of Graz and the like for the 1830s and 1840s doesn't reveal any family called Frankenberger in Graz at all. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Was_Adolf_Hitler_half_or_quarter_Jewish But: Tomás de Torquemada, first Inquisitor General of Spain, did have jewish blood. And just like this fact does not justify the inquisition and does not turn the jews into the villains of the inquisition from its victims, so does not the possibility that Ahmadinejew has jewish blood justify his anti-Israel/antisemitic views or implicate the jews in his despicable rhetoric and actions.
Does this make Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a possible mole for the Mossad? (Hebrew: המוסד למודיעין ולתפקידים מיוחדים‎ - Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations)
It doesn't end with A-Jad & Torquemada. Bobby Fischer, Noam Chomsky, One of the Columbine kids, A co-founder of (violent prison gang) Aryan Brotherhood, and plenty of others. What the hell is up with that, anyways?
