THIS WEEK'S PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS

Freedom of speech issues, regarding whether a certain photograph should be allowed to be shown, in connection with advertising placed in public bus transportation ads opposing radical Islam, gives us this week's photograph. Unless you were a history major in college as I was, you may be unaware of the close relationship between Middle East Arab leaders, and Nazi Germany. Much of the details have been consigned to the dustbin of history, but there was an alliance, and the photograph verifies it in graphic detail.

What you are seeing is the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin Al-Husseini, and Adolf Hitler. The Mufti lived in Nazi Germany during the war, and assisted in the formation of a Bosnian SS unit, whose members sported a fez as part of their dress uniform. Apparently this photo is too embarrassing in certain quarters in the United States, as there have been objections lodged to its display.
