A reporter for the International Arab TV station Al-Jazeera was sent to Baku, Azerbaijan to interview the Chabad activities in the country. The TV station is running a series of programs on Jews and other minorities in Arab countries.
The reporter interviewed the emissary in Baku, Rabbi Meir Bruk. The interview was coordinated with the government.
The moderator of the program is Zahur Alchakima, a native of Syria who has dual Syrian-Russian citizenship. He told Rabbi Bruk that in his neighborhood in Haleb, Syria, there was a Jewish neighborhood and the government harrassed them. They were forbidden to leave their houses after 8 PM. This is the first time, he said, in Azerbaijan ,a Moslem country, that he sees cooperation between jews and Arabs without harrassment
A great part of the show covers Chabad activities and the activities of the Federation of Jewish communities. Rabbi Bruk encouraged viewers to observe the 7 Noahide Laws.
The reporter asked him sharp questions but Rabbi Bruk fielded them very eloquently and wisely.
“Do you think there will ever be an end to the Arab-Israeli conflict?” he asked him. Rabbi Bruk responded: “In my opinion there is no real conflict between the two religions. The conflict in Israel is local. We have to do everything we can so that the struggle there does not turn into a religious conflict.”
Zuhar was surprised by his response and said “You have shattered all my theories. I thought that it was the religious leaders who are responsible for al lthe bloodshed.”

It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.
I think it's a disgrace that a Rabbi will go on an anti-Semetic Muslim TV show. One minute they have Sheiks like UBL calling for the death of Jews, then some Rabbi agrees to go on their show.
See? They don't hate Jews, they only hate Zionists...lol

It is a joke. The Chabad rabbi was in a terrible position being in a Muzzy country so his words had to be chosen carefully. The muzzies would do what they do best if he said something wrong. I believe if the interview would of been conducted in America, the rabbi would of said that Islam is drek.

it's not that religious leaders are resonsible for bloodshed...Currently, it's Islam...and bottom line, it is written in Koran to do that one way or another...
Blah!!! so annoying these politically correct whores!
