ADNAN OKTAR:“What crimes have they committed? Why protect them for the sake of a handful of good people in Israel?”We act according to Islam, and in Islam even if there is only one good person, the rights of that person must be upheld. Is that acceptable? One cannot say let the whole of society go down with the others. It makes no difference if it is 10 people or just one, insha’Allah. Allah does not send any disasters upon a region just because there is a prophet in that region, for that reason alone. One cannot act upon his own logic on this.

“If they were so good, why did they vote for such a monstrous government?”One can elect a government as the lesser to two evils. The lesser of two evils, because there is no better alternative. Isn’t that right? People may regard that as closer to them at the end of the day. Because both may oppress them, but at least one permits them to read the Torah, so they may have voted for that option. Is this something we have never come across? Muslims in Egypt brought in a terrible government as the lesser of two evils. It had been a terrible scourge on Muslims and devastated Muslims, but they voted it in. They can see no better alternative, so they brought it to power. In their own eyes of course. There would have been no need if we had Islamic union.

“There are so many questions to be asked why, so many that it wouldn’t end. We are baffled how you support Israel so much.”My brother, I have a duty to support the innocent, let it be Christians or Jews, I am responsible for the protection of the People of the Book. This is something the Qur’an commands me. It is Allah’s command. Allah does not tell us to kill the People of the Book wherever we find them. They are entrusted to us by Allah, and this is one of the particular duties of Hazrat Mahdi (as) in the End Times. To protect and watch over Christians and Jews. The People of the Book will follow him and on the prompting of the Hazrat Mahdi (as) they will all gain faith insha'Allah, Allah will make him instrumental in their coming to have faith, insha’Allah.  We are Hazrat Mahdi’s (as) vanguard and have not come to destroy people. Have we? We have come to be instrumental in their having faith and being saved, and consequently we have a duty to protect them. We must protect them as the people of faith, in the same way we protect Muslims.

“You say that Israel is the name of a prophet.”That is true. “We say, damn the thieves who have stolen that prophet’s name.” Well okay then you must say, “damn that thief". Say "damn the thief who stole the name". But you cite directly the name of the prophet in damning them. How is that acceptable? That must be rectified. They have realized that only after I said so, most of them I mean, insha’Allah.

“I have sent dozens of mails before but never received a reply to any. I do not think I will receive a reply to this one, either.”Allah says that "only the unbelievers (kafir) lose hope from the Mercy of Allah. So why do you lose hope? Right? It is all for the best, insha’Allah. We get thousands of mails. We can’t discuss them all. My brothers probably did that deliberately because of the language involved.

“I fear that if you continue to support Israel, you will lose the majority of your followers.”I will not depart from the true path even if I were to loose the whole world. I will do what I believe to be right. I am not doing this for people to love and support me. I am merely seeking Allah’s Approval. Gaining Allah’s Approval is enough for me. It makes no difference if the whole world opposes me. I am not here to curry favor. That is why I have clashed with everywhere, with Darwinists, materialists and communists. I have opposed satanists, haven’t I? I have opposed atheist Zionists and freemasons. I have gone head to head with them all for years. There is no end to the court proceedings they have brought against me, the plots and slanders. We can see this from looking at ‘the Baron’s’ team alone. The Baron for instance gives anything about me from the headlines. He devotes eight whole columns in his paper to something I did, that is perfectly reasonable, as if it were a crime. The Baron saw it was no good his attacking me on his own, or with his group. So he told some wretched individual under his command: “You appear to be against me. Stand out against me from time to time. Pretend to be hostile to me. I will found a new newspaper for you, create a brand new force. You must assault Harun Yahya from there, and Muslims, and Bediuzzaman. But you must protect all those false preachers and teachers. You must give those frauds your full backing. But this man is very dangerous. Harun Yahya, Adnan Oktar, is very dangerous.” He goes on: “You must attack him with all your might, and since everyone thinks you are also my enemy, this will not attract anyone's attention. Keep up that pretence. And I will secretly channel money and support to you. You carry on working as the dajjal’s right-hand man.” And that jackal struggle with me separately. That is a matter of pride for  me. Consequently, it would all have been different if I were  interested in winning support and currying favor, wouldn’t it? People would have been as sympathetic toward me as they are toward those false teachers. Wouldn’t they? I could have gone on the main TV stations and taken part in their talk shows. Why not? Because I hurt them. Because I want the Turkish-Islamic Union, I want the Islamic Union. I am not saying that Islamic moral values will not rule the world for another 500 or 700 years’ time. I am saying Islam will rule the world now. Right? I talk about the Turkish-Islamic Union and even make those who are allergic to all things Turkish agree to it. There are people whose hair stands on end at the very mention of the world Turkish. But this is a good, fine nation, a nation on the right path, a nation who loves Islam and the Qur’an. A nation devoted to Allah. So how could I not love the Turkish nation?

In addition, there is no room for sorrow in Islam. Why are you saddened? If someone is opposed to me because I stand for the truth, then that is exactly why I am here, why I am struggling like this. I will espouse the truth and they will oppose me. That is exactly what I want. I will earn merit from that. That is where Allah’s Approval lies. They will be hostile to me because I espouse the truth.

“Conduct a poll on your site to see whether we agree with you concerning Israel. Then you will see the truth.”I am not in the slightest bit interested. I seek the truth and honesty. I am also the hodja, older brother and protector of little 7-year-olds with curly hair in Israel. And I am also the hodja, older brother and protector of little 7-year-olds with open bellies in Palestine. I will not neither allow these to be harmed, nor the others. I will not allow the dajjal to wrong neither. Even if there were only one innocent person among those, I would uphold that person’s rights among those thousand people. I mean I would not defend the logic which would destroy all of them at once. Consequently, my brother Osman, one cannot get anywhere with the idea of damning people. I have spoken about this just recently.
