Hank, you're from an area with a large middle-eastern population. Any thoughts?

New Islamic Center imam Ahmed Alzaree resigns


Critics called him a "two-faced jihadist." Alzaree said he was nothing like that, but said he and his wife concluded they could never have a good beginning in Northeast Ohio.Leaders of the Parma mosque said that they investigated Alzaree's background and that a major reason they hired him was his commitment to interfaith work. Reports from the Omaha mosque and others in the religious community in Nebraska confirmed Alzaree was committed to explaining Islam in churches and synagogues.
But no sooner did the mosque announce his hiring than bloggers posted part of a 2003 "end times" sermon in which Alzaree quoted the Prophet Muhammad saying one sign of the approach of the Day of Judgment is that "the Muslims will kill the Jews." Bloggers also reported that Wagdy Ghoneim, a controversial cleric, spoke at the Omaha mosque.

Alzaree said last week that the sermon gave many examples of Islamic teaching on the Day of Judgment and that it was clear that Muslims in the present were required to "strive and struggle in the world doing the good." He also said the administration of the Omaha mosque invited Ghoneim to speak.

Nice whitewash. You would think half these journalists were on the Saudi payroll.

Here is what he said:

Dear brothers and sisters, the talk about the Day of Judgment is long and full of things that will confuse the human mind and put fear in the hearts of the faithful. Every day that comes is much more Worse than the day before it as we get closer to the hour. Among the signs of the approach of Day of Judgment is what the messenger of Allah PBUH said: “The hour of judgment shall not happen until the Muslims fight the Jews. The Muslims shall kill the Jews to the point that the Jew shall hide behind a big rock or a tree and the rock or tree shall call on the Muslim saying: hey, O Muslim there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him, except the Gharqad tree which will not say, for it is the tree of Jews."
