‘Modern Jews not descendants of pigs’
But some Jews were transformed into animals in the past, Algerian cleric says
An Algerian cleric, Chemseddine el-Djazairi, dispelled an apparently common belief Sunday on the Algerian Ennahar television station.
Jews, he explained to viewers, are not the descendants of apes and pigs.
Thank goodness.
MEMRI, the Middle East Media Research Institute, found and translated the cleric’s speech and posted it on its YouTube channel Wednesday.
“Contemporary Jews are of the seed of Adam,” the cleric corrected, “not of the apes and pigs, because the line of those transformed into apes and pigs was severed.
“Some nations were transformed by Allah into apes and pigs,” he went on. “However, they have no descendants.”
“Get it?” he asked.
We do now.
