The father of the San Bernardino gunman tried to calm his son down about his obsession with Israel.
Syed Farook (not to be confused with his son Syed Rizwan Farook) was reported by The Times of Israel to have commented that his son “shared [ISIS leader Abu Bakr] Al Baghdadi’s ideology and supported the creation of the Islamic State. He was also obsessed with Israel.”
Farook, who gave his interview with Italy’s La Stampa Mondo, also said that he tried to calm down his son with a belief that Israel would soon cease to exist because Russia, China and America “don’t want Jews there any more.” He suspected that the three nations would move the Jewish population to Ukraine.
“I told him he had to stay calm and be patient because in two years Israel will not exist any more,” Farook said. “What is the point of fighting? We have already done it and we lost. Israel is not to be fought with weapons, but with politics. But he did not listen to me, he was obsessed.”
