Clerics may have stoked radical's fire

AMBURG - As a guest orator at the Al Quds mosque, Sheik Mohammed al-Fazazi delivered thunderous sermons about Christian and Jewish ''infidels'' and the need to fight a ''jihad'' against America.

''The Jews and Crusaders must have their throats slit,'' said Fazazi, an Islamic cleric from Morocco, as he implored those who listened to ''fight the Americans as long as they are keeping Muslims in prison.''

FYI

Recording Jihadist sermons......

Recording Jihadist sermons......And the authorities throwing it back in their faces as eveidence.

''Fazazi is very well known and respected, and his sermons are very strong,'' said Barakat, a German citizen of Syrian origin who was at the mosque for some of the sermons.

Rabid dogs should be put down.

This is all a witch hunt against peaceful Moslems.

Both of them.

Of the 100 mosques around Hamburg, fewer than 30 were under the influence of such extremists, and only a handful openly preached militant Islam, he said.

Well, isn't that comforting - only about a third of the mosques were under the influence of extremists. Yet we keep hearing the intentional lie that such extremists comprise but a tiny minority of the Muslim population.

I can hear the apologists already say: it's just a few, they are mistranslated, this is not islam, it is taken out of context, blah blah blah.

And it also strikes me to see that they apologize for islam and yet manage to attack Jews in the same text:

"Suicide bombing is against islam, but that is their only defence agaist the Zionists"

And since they 'only' are targetting Jews or Americans, there is no reason for them to take it seriously.

[knighthawk]

If the muslims in Europe (and the US) want to show the world that islam is not about what the radicals say, they need to kick these radical imams out NOW. But instead they import and employ imams from Syria and Morocco that have been banned from preaching in those countries because of their fundamentalistic and anti-moderate government views.

And instead of buying those tapes, they need to start removing the 'unislamic' militants that are amongst them.

[sarcasm]

It would appear that they are not so 'unislamic' after all.

''The Jews and Crusaders must have their throats slit,'' said Fazazi, an Islamic cleric from Morocco...

I'm very sorry, but this is the "voice of Islam" that we hear most loudly in the West.

[a_Turk]

It's the voice of Fazazi, an obvious infidel because he speaks in spite the Koran which he is supposed to interpret. And if Morocco won't get him, then slap them with sanctions and be extremely critical of all Moroccans. Same goes for all other lands where such evil gibberish is tolerated.

I'd go on a podium and speak, but nobody will have me. I'm not newsworthy, my statements, backed by millions of others like me, do not sell papers.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

I'll bet these jihad nutcases hate having their own words used against them.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

All you have to do is get on the CAIR website to see what these Islamic idiots are all about. They give their standard disclaimer about being loving and peaceful. Then they outright rationalize terrorism and the random mass-murder of Israeli and American civilians while ranting about the evils of American foreign policy. Isn't it great how they complain that America and Israel are not following the Geneva convention and other international laws? My question is: where does international law condone random mass-murder of civilians in the WTC, streets of Israel, and families in pizza restaurants?

[Travis McGee]

I genuinely feel sorry for the horrible position these asswipes put you in. I'll bet the Turkish Army would like to "deal with them" even more than most in the West. I know in my heart that you stand with us and civilization.

[SupplySider]

Thanks for your post, I agree 100%. If you know of a cleric who agrees with you, I believe he could be a guest on O'Reilly or Hannity and Colmes. They have said they would like to put on moderate Islamic spokesmen, but are having trouble finding them.
