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

Canada: Imam urges sending weapons to Palestinians for jihad against “Zionists,” the “worst of mankind”

Nov 2, 2017 12:02 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

The imam of a Vancouver mosque, Tarek Ramadan, has called on Muslims to send “money, weapons and expertise” to Palestinians to fight “Zionists” in Israel. He also referred to Israelis as “an impure gang” and Zionists as the “worst of mankind…calling on his congregation to fight, by any means necessary” against Zionists in a jihad.”

Islamic hate preachers are a ubiquitous problem. They drive supremacism, non-integration of Muslims in the West, and jihad attacks, yet they continue to spread their hate and dawah throughout the West.

From Saudi Arabia to Egypt to Lebanon, vicious anti-Semitic and ant-American propaganda is spewing forth from the preachers of hate: Muslim clerics, government newspapers, government television networks, and even government officials….Even more troubling, the hatred has spread throughout Europe and even to the United States.

A University of California professor, Hatem Bazian, called for an intifada in America, with no consequences. The Manchester jihadi’s mosque hosted preachers who prayed that non-Muslims be killed. In the last academic year, over 100 Muslim hate speakers were invited to speak at UK universities.

It is insane that Western politicians and authorities continue to be afraid to deal with this crisis, and have put their trivial fear of being called “Islamophobic” over the well-being and safety of the public.

“Vancouver imam urges sending weapons to Palestinians to fight ‘Zionists’”, by Douglas Todd, The Province, October 31, 2017:

The imam of a Vancouver mosque is under fire for calling on Muslims to send “money, weapons and expertise” to Palestinians to fight “Zionists” in Israel.

B’nai B’rith Canada, a Jewish organization, on Tuesday released videos in which an imam at a Kingsway mosque, Tarek Ramadan, is seen referring to Israelis as “an impure gang” and Zionists as the “worst of mankind.”

Recorded this summer, the video shows Ramadan calling on his congregation to “fight, by any means necessary” against Zionists in a jihad, or holy struggle. “We are not going to be shy or wishy-washy about it.”

The video of Ramadan’s English-language talk was obtained by an international organization called the Middle East Media Research Institute, which often exposes hate speech. One of its directors is Reid Morgan, former director of the Canadian Security Intelligence Service.

B’nai B’rith is calling on Ramadan to be dismissed from his position and has filed a complaint with the Vancouver Police Department.

It also wants an inquiry held into the actions of the Muslim Association of Canada, which operates the mosque and which B’nai B’rith says shared the “offensive” sermon on its YouTube channel.

In his sermon, Ramadan says that the famous Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, which is patrolled by Israeli security officials, “should only be in the custody of the Muslims. It should not be in the custody of the Christians, the Jews or anybody else.” Zionists, Ramadan said, have “no holiness, no respect for anybody.”

Representatives of the Muslim Association of Canada could not be reached for comment Tuesday.

Previous Postmedia articles have tied MAC, which has many mosques across Canada, to Hamas and other militant Middle Eastern organizations.

Ramadan himself was in the news in early 2016 after a driver pepper-sprayed refugees standing outside his mosque, at 2122 Kingsway. At the time Ramadan told the Canadian public that it “doesn’t have to be afraid of Muslims.”

The Muslim Association of Canada mosque is not a member of the B.C. Muslim Association, the main umbrella group for roughly 40,000 Sunni Muslims on the West Coast of Canada.

In a statement Wednesday, B’nai B’rith’s chief executive officer, Michael Mostyn, said, “This is an extremely serious development, especially in light of similar incidents at other mosques in Vancouver and across Canada.”

Ramadan’s controversial remarks follow a report in September about Canadian Revenue Agency allegations that a Port Coquitlam mosque, called Masjid Al-Hidayah and Islamic Cultural Centre, was “controlled or influenced” by a Qatari foundation that helped finance Hamas, which the Canadian government has declared a terrorist organization.

B’nai B’rith also filed a complaint this summer against a Jordanian cleric in Montreal, who was recorded reciting the following verse in Arabic: “O Muslim, O servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.” Montreal police issued an arrest warrant for Muhammad bin Musa Al-Nasr.

In addition, B’nai B’rith pointed to the case of a Ryerson University teaching assistant, Ayman Elkasrawy, who was dismissed this year from his job after making offensive comments during a prayer service at Masjid Toronto.

In his Arabic-language sermon, B’nai B’rith Canada provided evidence Elkasrawy called on Muslims to “purify the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the filth of the Jews.”

Such Canadian cases echo similar exposes in the US, many of which involve MEMRI obtaining and translating videos of controversial speeches and sermons by Muslim clerics…….

    Canada has gone to the dogs because of that cretin called the TURD who has disgraced and betrayed his own countrymen… Shame on Him.. (Sorry Canadians.. no disrespect to U.. I just feel outraged that such a beautiful paradise of a land is being destroyed by one of ur own)

      Turdeau lives in Canada, but his allegiance is all to globalists like George Soros and the U.N. He doesn’t care about the Canadian people.

        Turdeau is a dhimmi traitor who encourages the fifth columnists.

      Trudeau is a simpleton who is way over his head being Prime Minister, because he is such an idiot he is placing even more idiotic people in positions where they can do damage to Canada for years after the clown Trudeau has been driven out of office by common sense Canadians. For example he has just placed a space cadet in the position of Governor General, a position that represents the Queen as monarch of Canada. A figurative position only, the GG is supposed to be apolitical. This space cadet of Trudeau’s just gave a speech condemning anyone who doesn’t think like her on various issues such as climate change, alternative medicine and horoscopes. Idiots promoting idiots get the same results every time, and we Canadians have to suffer the consequences. Thanks idiot Liberal voters.

    It should be made known that the Muslim terror organizations, Hezbollah, Hamas ,P.I.J. etc. are all fated to fail in their Islamic agenda of destroying the State of Israel and replacing with Islamic “state.” The reason that they will lose in the end and lose hard is because the members of those jihad terror entities are striving against the Will of God. The members who compose those Islamic terror groups might be too ignorant to know this, nevertheless the truth is the God had given all this land that now composes the State of Israel, including all of the West Bank, to the Jewish people. This may be found in the Bible, as seen in, for example, Genesis 28:13-15. 35:10-12. Deuteronomy 32:48,49. Psalm 105:7-11. 135:4. In other words the Jews have tall this land by Divine Right. Furthermore, the Jewish people should have this land by historic rights as shown in First Kings 4:20,21, 24,25. 8:55, 56. Still, in all fairness, there is one way for the Muslim members who make up Hezbollah, Hamas and the P.I.J. to convince God to change His Mind about being so much for Israel and then cause Him to turn His back on Israel and then have that nation be no more. That way is for the members of the jihad origination to gather together and then change the laws of astrophysics, including those laws of astrophysics the control the sun, the moon and the stars. For God had declared in His Word, the Bible, in Jeremiah 31:35,36. “Thus saith the Lord, Who gives the sun for a light by day and the ordinances of the moon and stars for a light by night…The Lord of host is His name. If those ordinances depart from before Me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before Me forever.”

    Secular Jews are among those who try to whitewash political Islam, much to their own detriment. If secular Jews were aware of the VEHEMENCE of Jew hatred in the Koran, hadiths and Sira, they would be profoundly shocked.

    There is more Jew hatred in the Islamic source texts than there is in Mein Kampf.

    I sent an email to the Vancouver Police Department asking them why charges have not been pressed. I reminded them that this is aiding and abetting terrorism and hate speech. I also asked them why the B’nai B’rith Canada and Middle East Media Research Institute are forced to do their work for them.

    Perhaps you should send a similar email.

    Islam instructs hatred.
    That is why Islamic preachers preach it.

    “…between us and you enmity and hatred forever…” Koran 60:4

    This is when a supremacist cult receives promotion and all protection as a religion. Islam is not “religion”: No Muslim calls it as such – for him it is a “way of life.” For all non-believers it is nothing but political ideology.

    *Repulsive*–but not surprising. Good for the B’nai B’rith for calling the police on this.

    This is why all the Liberals and NDP voted for M-103 to stop Canadians from saying things about Muslims. Close the mosques, fire Trudeau and his clan. Make Canada great again.

    When the Arab Idol held a concert in Canada Muslims were interviewed – the blind hatred they expressed against Jewish people was truly revealing about Muslims in this country. It is understandable in the Middle East where they are brainwashed but there is ample opportunity in Canada to come to a more balanced and objective approach and learn the truth. I am sure many of them interviewed would be considered moderates. Some so-called intellectuals in France are suggesting that a separate Muslim society be allowed to form with their Sharia law so they can have their own culture of misogyny, honor killings of their daughters, FGM, promotion of jihad and hatred against all others and all the lovely attributes of Islam. The attempt to ban criticism of Islam by Western governments is doing exactly what they are trying to prevent – distrust and hatred of Muslims. In Europe this is spawning fascist hate groups. Appeasing Hitler worked out so beneficially.
