31. #3 Yes he Is. His mother was a jew
(12.31.06)
32. #30 his mother was a jew, .......and more !
observer   (01.01.07)
His mother was a jew converted to Islam at the age of 9, but no confirmation if this was After her marriage. http://www.rogerlsimon.com/mt-archives/2006/05/department_of_w.php and more intersting is that his son Sief Al-Islam is in love with an Israeli TV actress, Orly Weinerman. she has been meeting Colonel Gaddafi spawn Seif Gaddafi in Italian love trysts so torrid she's said to be thinking of marriage & converting to Islam. A Libya / Israel wedding would be complicated by the fact Libya does not recognize Israel, & the Colonel has been known to say things like Israel is nothing but a mirage, something that does not exist (something Seif says about the Libyan opposition).

33. Qaddafi Jewish? No.
Ben Wolf ,   NYC USA   (01.01.07)
Even if his mother were born Jewish, her conversion and life as a Muslim took her out of Judaism. As he was raised by a mother no longer Jewish, he isn't Jewish, period. We have been murdered, tortured, converted, and dispersed for thousands of years. How many people do you think don't have some Jewish ancestry now, especially in the Middle East?
34. #33 question; is jewishness about religion or ethnicity ?
observer   (01.01.07)
“Hitler's Jewish Soldiers: The Untold Story of Nazi Racial Laws and Men of Jewish Descent in the German Military “ by Bryan Mark Rigg released by the University Press of Kansas in 2002 & 2004; more than 150,000 Mischlinge (mixed blood) fought for the Nazis in WWII Luftwaffe Field Marshall Erhart Milch, was either a half or full Jew some 200 full-blooded Jews (the Schutzjuden, or protected Jews) were spared persecution in Berlin alone. One way or another, at least 6,000 full-blooded Jews served in the Wehrmacht There is some elaboration of Hitler's obsessive fear of his Jewishness, as well as the probable Jewishness of Reinhard Heydrich, one of the chief architects of the Holocaust itself. Most relevant documents that trace the ancestry of top Nazi officials have been destroyed. http://www.amazon.com/Hitlers-Jewish-Soldiers-Descent-Military/dp/0700611789
35. Gaddafi is jewish.....response to #30 & #33
zaq ,   ranaana   (01.02.07)
my friends mother grew up with his mother as a young girl in libya and #33 look up the Jewish concept of "Tinoke B'nishba"....a child taken into captivity as she was kidnapped at the age of 9......
36. sorry #33
Dan ,   Georgia, USA   (01.05.07)
much as I agree with your sentiment, the traditional view is very clear -- the child of a Jewess is a Jew period. even if a Jewish woman converts to another religion she's still a member of the Jewish people ... and so her children & her daughter's children, etc -- the matrilineal line may be forgotten, but the Covenant is unbreakable.
37. Biased Views
Hassan ,   Preston   (01.14.07)
erm, if Islam is soo bad then why is it the fastest growing religion? And if it treats woman bad than why do women like Yvonne Ridley Revert to Islam. And what else i think is weird is so many people dont even do there research, if people looked into Islam they would be compelled. And people in the middle east are bound to have Jewish ancestors, it should be like that because Jews should have gone to Christianity and from then gone to Islam comprende?
38. islam is the best
muhammad ,   qatar   (06.24.09)
ISLAM IS THE BEST OF ALL RELIGION
39. Both mum and dad were Jewish
