Funny how the "1913 seeds" documentary TOTALLY leaves out such a central figure in the post Ottoman era:
Beat me to it.In 1913 the Mufti wasn't the Mufti, he was an 16-18 yr old youth of no importance in Ottoman regime. Haj Amin al-Husseini - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
The Ba'ath Party was inspired by the nazis. It's no wonder the moonbats were reluctant to to support it's destruction.
I'm willing to bet that Monti will call this video "Zionist Hasbara propaganda'
As far as the Mufti, he was a Palestinian patriot who tried, unsuccessfully, to prevent the European colonization of Palestine and the dispossession of the Christians and Muslims of Palestine by the European Jews and their British facilitators. He knew that if the British won the war his people would be expelled from Palestine and/or become subservient to the European colonists. It is exactly what happened. So, how can you fault him for trying to prevent a disaster for his people by supporting the enemies of Britain? Many other leaders of people seeking independence from Britain (or other allied powers) sought support from Germany.

I don't know that "patriot" is the right word.

What else would you call him?
I suspect that the Mufti would have been against any people of any religion that intended to displace the Palestinians and create their own state. If the British had made a declaration that Indian Muslims (before the Indian partition) would be transferred to Palestine, he would have acted in the same manner. It had nothing to do with religion, it had to do with people from somewhere else going to Palestine with the intention of removing the people living there to make room for people from somewhere else.

He turned away children to certain death. I'm trying to figure out how that is in any way admierable.

Well, you have to consider that accepting Europeans in Palestine was a death sentence for Christian and Muslim children. Which actually happened. It is obviously a dilemma.
