California Imam Prays for Allah to 'Annihilate' Jews in Public Sermon - Breitbart

Imam Ammar Shahin of the Islamic Center of Davis in California delivered a sermon on Friday in which he quoted an antisemitic hadith and prayed for Allah to “annihilate” Jews “down to the very last one.”
The video of Shahin’s sermon was posted to the Islamic Center of Davis’s YouTube channel on Friday (Update: the video has since been removed), and translated and excerpted by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), though portions of the sermon were delivered in English.

The topic of the sermon was the ongoing controversy at the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, where the Israeli government installed metal detectors at access points to the Al-Aqsa Mosque after a terrorist shot and killed two Druze Israeli soldiers earlier this month.

Davis has been the site of other antisemitic incidents in the recent past, some evidently fueled by radical Islamic beliefs and affinity for the Hamas terrorist group.

In 2015, Muslims students taunted Jewish students at a student government meeting by chanting “Allahu Akbar!” at them, One of the Muslim students involved later boasted that “Hamas and Sharia law have taken over UC Davis.”


Yeah, they want to assimilate. Where is the outrage on MSM? This is hate speech and should be condemned.
 
Why hasn't Donald Trump issued a statement condeming this? Where is the outrage of the Trump administration!!!

Where is the public outrage over this. More importantly why is the Islamic community outraged? I would much prefer to see that than a politician speaking out.

A Jew bought the apartment building next to the Hare Krishna Temple in Chicago and they're whining about what he's going to do to them when his tenants barbecue on their back porch during Sunday Feasts or whenever, the windows to the Temple room open by the back porch.

Hare Krishnas don't like Jews because of their meat eating sacrificial system that gave us western society and subjugated the Indian subcontinent.

Hare Krishnas call our elected officials demons and everyone demons and Islam picks up on this spiritual energy.

They say it is Kali Yuga, the age of quarrel and expect nothing but quarrel from our leaders.
 
What is illegal about praying for the annihilation of the Jews? Does it violate Free Speech in some way I am unaware of?

I don't comment every time some pastor/priest/whatever says or does something outrageous, because frankly nobody is obligated to listen or obey those people. The problem is when people start arguing that that pastor/priest/etc are actually right because "group X" is so evil.

When you upload it to YouTube it calling for the death of all Jews, I consider it hate speech promoting violence, crossing the line of free speech. Isn't hate speech illegal?

It's promoting violence. That's against the law.

That depends....has he heard about it? He can't condem something if he doesn't know about it.

Besides, if anyone should be condeming this, it's American Muslims. It's coming from someone in their community.

I haven't seen it. Praying for death of others is not hate speech. If he says more then I will change my mind perhaps.

Since hate crimes are about the thoughts and intentions of a person who commits a real crime, then it seems to me that praying for the death of others is about as hateful as it gets. It certainly doesn't come from love.

Simply to point out that if Obama didn't respond to something within 1 hour....you had right-wingers completely losing their ****....the double standard from the right-wing is always blaring.

But it is not illegal...

Your embarassment over the ugly side of islam is showing
 
Trump still hasn't issued a statement condemning this. Where is the Trump administration outrage?

Maybe because it happened in a hostile foreign country that we expect to spew hate against America

AFAIK Trump hasn't talked about or gotten himself involved in any specific crime committed by individuals not personally known to him. Where as Obama had a habit of talking about individual crimes committed by people he didn't know...and even then pretty much always talked about crimes committed by black individuals... and tried to support those black individuals.

When Trump starts to do that, then you would be right in stating this. Otherwise you're just spewing partisan hack idiocy.
 
Outragoues. They should be more like these christians.



 
I thought right-wingers were tired of liberal outrage
