Via Mick, this is what passes for educational programming on Arab TV: MEMRITV: Egyptian Expert on "Jewish Religions" Ahmad Al-Gundi: Bloodthirstiness and Racism Are Innate Characteristics of the Jews (link is to video)

Following are transcripts from an interview with Dr. Ahmad Al-Gundi, an Egyptian expert on "Jewish Religion," which aired on Al-Aqsa TV on June 28, 2010.

Ahmad Al-Gundi: Do contemporary Jews have any relation to the ancient Israelites, in terms of race? It is assumed that the ancient Israelites had certain physical characteristics, like the length and width of their bodies, the shape of their heads, and the color of their skin, their hair, and their eyes.

Interviewer: Why are [the Jews] so bloodthirsty and racist?

Ahmad Al-Gundi: It seems to be their innate character. Prof. Rashad Al-Shami published a book in the World of Science series, titled The Jewish Character and the Hostile Spirit. This book demonstrates how deeply the hostile spirit is embedded in this character.

It would be no exaggeration to say that the Koran noted this even earlier, when it talked about how they ignite civil strife and wars among people.

This seems to be related to their nature. Psychological research is called for...

As Mick says:

Levels of irony here. The interviewer, perfectly demonstrating his own racism, blithely asks why Jews are so racist: the interviewee, assuming an air of scholarly learning, demonstrates his own stupidity. Sadly, it's not a comedy show.
