1. There is a good reason the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem sat out the war in Germany, he agreed with their ideology and would have implemented it when Israel formed if he had the chance. You need to look closer at history, take the blinders off

He certainly preferred Hitler's solution than Hitler's initial idea of deporting the Jews . It is unclear if he actually suggested extermination.

I don't think it was unclear at all read the book Exodus

yeah I know what the Bible says . I'm talking about the events of Nov 28, 1941 .The only thing I know for sure is that the Mufti proposed staging a Muslim revolt against the European colonial powers that controlled the ME and North Africa. In return he asked for Hitler to call for “the elimination of the Jewish national home” .The record is less clear that he suggested the extermination of the Jews. Hitler had come to that conclusion before his meeting with Al-Husseini . The fact is that Hitler had determined that the Jews needed extermination in 1919. He wrote that in a letter called the Gemlich letter that is on display at Simon Wiesenthal Center Museum of Tolerance.

And I was talking about 1948. The point is the nazi had their jewish solution and any fellow traveller would have been signed in, seen how successful their methods were and how they could be applied

You wrote that he sat out of WWII . That was pre-1948 . He sat out because Hitler did not give him the green light . The argument has been that the Mufti fed the idea of extermination into Hitler's head . There is no evidence for that statement .

I did not make that statement, rather that the Mufti became educated in nazi antisemitism
