Elder of Ziyon
Abdel Wahab El-Messiri is an Egyptian academic who is more famed in the Arab world for writing an eight-volume "Encyclopedia of Jews, Judaism and Zionism."
Ever since the Abraham Accords, a quote from him from decades ago has been making the rounds of op-ed writers, most recently this past weekend.
About twenty years ago, he wrote, "From now on we will find Jews in Muslim clothes, the functional Jew, a Muslim who prays with us in the mosque, but he plays the same role as the Jewish general, and therefore this phenomenon must be analyzed so that many of us do not turn into Jews without realizing."
Notice that he doesn't say "Zionist" but "Jew," showing that even the biggest supposed expert on Judaism in the Arab world saw no distinction between the two - the Jew was a danger to Islam.
And now, to these pundits, the worst thing about the Abraham Accords is not the Arab turning into a Zionist - but the Muslim turning into a Jew.
