Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Switzerland: Muslim migrant preacher who called for deaths of non-Muslims got $620,000 in welfare payments

Aug 24, 2017 8:49 am By Robert Spencer

“Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued” (Qur’an 9:29).

UK jihad preacher Anjem Choudary said in February 2013:

“We are on Jihad Seekers Allowance, We take the Jizya (protection money paid to Muslims by non-Muslims) which is ours anyway. The normal situation is to take money from the Kafir (non-Muslim), isn’t it? So this is normal situation. They give us the money. You work, give us the money. Allah Akbar, we take the money. Hopefully there is no one from the DSS (Department of Social Security) listening. Ah, but you see people will say you are not working. But the normal situation is for you to take money from the Kuffar (non-Muslim) So we take Jihad Seeker’s Allowance.”

“Refugee hate preacher received $620K in social benefits in Switzerland – media,” RT, August 23, 2017 (thanks to David):

A Libyan immigrant who called on Allah to “destroy” non-Muslims during his prayer in a Swiss mosque claimed $620,000 in social benefits for over a decade from a predominantly Christian state, local media report.

In his hate speech, Abu Ramadan called on Allah “to destroy the enemies of our religion,” Switzerland’s SRF broadcaster reported, citing an audio recording in its possession.

The “enemies” according to the preacher included “Jews, Christians, Hindus, Russians and the Shia [branch of Islam].”

Yet, Ramadan received some 600,000 Swiss francs ($620,000) in social benefits from the Swiss government over the last 13 years, according to research conducted by the Rundschau program of SRF and the Tages Anzeiger newspaper.

According to the newspaper, the man came to seek refuge in Switzerland in 1998 after he fled his homeland, explaining that he’d been pursued by authorities for spreading religious propaganda for the Muslim Brotherhood.

With political asylum granted and a residence permit, the 64-year-old Ramadan hardly ever worked, instead living on social payments from 2004 until 2017.

Ramadan, who can barely speak French or German according to news outlets, is said have preached in small towns of Biel and Neuchâtel, as well appeared on the Libyan Islamic channel, Tanaush TV.

In addition, research claims to have found his pictures at luxury hotels, made when he accompanied pilgrims to Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia.

Through a statement by his lawyer, the preacher claimed to Tages Anzeiger that he respects other religions. “Love, tolerance and generosity are my guideline in my relations with Muslims and non-Muslims,” the statement reads.

However, according to the tape obtained by the Swiss outlets, he also preached that “a person who befriends a disbeliever is cursed until the Day of Judgment.” In fact, the man apparently never studied theology and also denied being an imam, the newspaper says….

    Infuriating! A bullet would only cost $2.50… Far more appropriate!

      Yes, one for him would be enough.

      But I wonder how many bullets his $620,000 dollars bought, for the use of…

    There is no news here. Muslims have been sucking at the social services teat of almost every country that they are allowed into.

    Canada has just declared that the 36,000 illegals crossing our border, with the personal invitation of our Oh so dumb and idiotic Prime Minister Trudeau, will cost at least 2.7 billion dollars while they wait the 11 years !!! YES that’s correct ELEVEN years, for their claims to be heard.

    You see in their wisdom our federal Liberal government, Trudeau et al snowflaked cucks, fired all those immigration judges that were hired by our previous conservative PM Harper to clear the backlog then in existence. Brilliant thinking by Trudeau to fire hundreds of immigration judges then invite the worlds refugees to come to Canada en mass.

    My blood boils whenever I think just how stupid voters in Canada can be, to elect such an idiotic one world government supporter like Trudeau just because he promised to legalize marijuana.

    In 2019 let’s make Trudeau a part time drama teacher again.

    I’ve come to this site almost daily for three years. Often I worry that stunning headlines like this are so commonplace that people simply turn off the ability to care. I’m not sure what it will take to jolt readers like myself out of the trance-like stupor into which we have fallen. I keep saying to myself that a few more outrageous, yet entirely true, headlines like this will be all it takes to wake people up nationwide, but it doesn’t seem such a tipping point will ever be reached. The game has been rigged in favor of jihadists for so long that the outcomes feel depressingly preordained. It’s this existential resignation to the eventual overthrow of every Western democracy within 100 years that makes me feel so neutered and helpless. And it’s all illustrated soberly by Mr. Spencer with quotes from the lovely Quran. A slow-motion catastrophe. More news at 11. Rinse and repeat.

      The left have done a great job of indoctrination on our young people and social media has propogated the “feelings” culture so that they are totally alienated to critical thinking and rely only on how they personally perceive how the world should be not how it actually is.

      Don’t give up! Before WWII the majority of Westerners were clueless and in denial over the threat of Fascism, and those few like Winston Churchill who *did* see the danger were castigated as “hysterics” or even “warmongers’. They did eventually win clear, though.

    There is a book “The Strange Death of Europe.” Details what is going on. I have it. Get it.
    Switzerland was once a wonderful country. Still is, but not for long. Muslims in the country.

    Place the blame where it really belongs…with the state system that allows this kind of BS. I would immediately quit paying taxes until this is rectified. If You want something to go away quit buying it.

    I wonder how much $$$$ the imam of Vénissieux got, an illegal Algerian with 4 wives and 19 children who was thrown out after 20 years in France. As far as I know, he left his tilts & his brood behind.

    ………………………

    F*cking insanity. We are funding our own destruction. And this is Switzerland–which is often saner than other European nations when it comes to recognizing the threat of Islam.
