In the wake of 9/11, there was a great deal of talk about “moderate Muslims,” and about whether any given Muslim spokesmen rejected “terrorism” (never jihad). A few “moderate” Muslim hucksters sprang up, saying all the right things and fleecing gullible non-Muslims who wanted to believe, in the teeth of all evidence, that the vast majority of Muslims rejected jihad violence. Now, although many of those “moderates” are still around, many Muslim spokesmen aren’t even making the pretense of being “moderate” anymore.
“Florida Imam Abu Usama At-Thahabi: Muslims Should Not Apologize for Jihad or Fear It; Obama Is a “Devil”; We Must Show Non-Muslims the Dominance of Islam by Making Them Move to the Side of the Street,” MEMRI, May 2, 2025:
In a series of Friday sermons in May 2025 at Masjid As-Sunnah in Kissimmee, Florida, Imam Abu Usama At-Thahabi spoke about Muslims’ relationship with non-Muslims and the concept of Jihad.
In his May 16 sermon, At-Thahabi said that Jihad is part of a Muslim’s manhood, emphasizing that Muslim men do not send their wives to wage Jihad on their behalf. He said that Muslims should defend their religion, not apologize for Jihad, and not be afraid of it. He added that Christians do not practice anything Jesus brought and that Jesus was not sent as a prophet to them.
In a May 2 sermon, At-Thahabi said that while individuals such as President Jimmy Carter (whom he referred to as “Peanut Man”), Mother Teresa, and Martin Luther King Jr. may have been “great personalities,” they would not enter Paradise because they were born infidels and did not embrace Islam. He also called President Barack Obama a “devil,” adding that Obama does not represent him or his community.
At-Thahabi further cited a hadith stating that if a Muslim is walking down the street, he should compel non-Muslims to move to the more “difficult” side of the path, in order to show them the “dominance” of Islam.

Clinical ill narcissist and psychopath. Islam is poison.

Thanks for quoting the brave and principled Dr. Wafa Sultan.

As Cronkite said: ‘and that’s that way it is’.
Not the fictitious stories given by both Muslim but usually non-Muslim apologists in the West!

Remove these inciters from our country.
Ban the Muslim Brotherhood as well.
Wellington says
Better when Buttlims are honest about what their religion intends for all of humanity than when they dissimulate and put on a “happy face” about the worst religion of all time.
gravenimage says
Wellington, he is not being honest–he is feeling emboldened by the weakness and fecklssness of too many Infidels.
Wellington says
Well, gravenimage, this turkey is being honest about just how wonderful jihad is—and he’s not talking about the way it’s meant 3% of the time, i.e. some kind of spiritual struggle, but the way it’s meant the other 97% of the time, i.e., war waged against the non-believer “until all religion is with Allah.”
Captain Quirk says
I agree gravenimage, and the weakness and fecklesness is caused by the insane attitude of our leaders, who insist that mohamedanism must be treated exactly the same as Christendom and Judaism. And that’s because they haven’t the foggiest about mohamedanism and most likely truely believe it’s the ‘religion of peace’ it isn’t.
They’re clueless, even when the mohamedans tell them the truth in their face. And then there is only 1 option left: kick the leaders out with tar and feathers (not meant literally), because they are obviously incompetent.
What they (our leaders) should do is (do) their homework on mohamedanism. Read up on it. Read Jihadwatch.org for example and learn about surah’s 8: 39; 2: 191; 47:4, etc. Learn about the end of the idjtihad. Learn about sharia and its punishments. Learn about the treatment of women and non-believers. In short: wake up and wise up

Thanks, Wellington and Captain Quirk.

Hold the phone! He’s saying some were “born infidels”? What about those other goons who have claimed **everyone** is born mozzie and must ‘revert’?
And they always bring Jesus into their lies. They know absolutely nothing about Jesus, just as they know nothing about His heavenly Father.
Jesus said of His mission….’it was (first)… to the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel. The people had gone astray. The Pharisees…lawyers…ran rough-shod over the people; thieves used His “Father’s House” to rip off the common person who needed to make a sacrifice,, and the priests were telling others what to do, but not following their own directions.
Jesus told the Greek lady that He was not there, at that time, to help anyone but the Jews. He did, however help her and others who were not Jews, and anyone was allowed to gather on a hillside to hear Him speak. He set up a *new* Way to God and the men and women who followed Him, began to be “called Christians” by Divine Providence.
As for “Paradise”…..no thinking person, no moral or honest person, no caring person, would want any part of the “paradise” this ghoul references.
As for the “manhood” part….he’s fishing in the wrong pond. There is not a ***man**** among the millions of mozzies. They are pond scum…lower, as pond scum might have some redeeming qualities. …pond scum makes oxygen.

Florida: Imam says good Muslims ‘don’t apologize about jihad, they are not afraid of jihad’

Why is this surpremacist thug allowed to preach brutality and murder here.
And no–forcing vulnerable people into the gutter is not “manhood”. It is barbarism.

These criminals called Imams get away with it because they are in cabal under crime syndicates ran by the Western Globalist Elites, Marxism, AND Islam! All on the take bringing in cuts, and the Democrat Party with pocket RINO elephants have made sure all roads for Organized Crime runs through Rome on the Potomac- the District of Crookedness!
abu taleb says
No matter how good a non muslim is, s/he will not enter paradise. On the other hand, no matter how bad a muslim is, s/he will enter paradise. So, a murderer, rapist, paedophile or other heinous criminal, as long as s/he is a muslim, she is better than the best non muslim.
Quran says Allah is the enemy of the unbelievers (2:98), and Allah is never the enemy of rapists, pedophiles, murderers etc. In fact, as long as those criminals are doing for the sake of Allah, Allah will reward them. And Allah also has sanctioned the crimes on the right condition like the victims are non muslims.
OLD GUY says
Most other religions live and let live. “But NOT Islam”.
Islam wants to dominate and rule the world.
Islam is OK with the rape of women and children, violence against anyone who disagrees and the murder of individuals upsetting ones honor or Islamic rules.
Islam coming to and for you through open borders.
WPM says
You can not incite violence from the pulpit on American soil and nothing happens to you ? Freedom of speech ends with calls for violence on other citizens in America because of their faith. Calls for overthrowing our rule of law to be replace with Shirai law should get the American alphabet agencies off their asses to at least watch what Islamic caveman is trying to sell .Jihad is a call for violence ,pushing people off the sidewalk into the street is just the first step .

Yes–inciting violnce is not protected speech.
Fred Chorro says
Not for a minute I believe what he said about Obama. BHO was, and is, a big enabler of many Muslim regimes.
gravenimage says
Fred–with all respect–your idea that pious Muslims feel gratitude towards Infidels who help them is mistaken in most cases. Muslims just consider such useful idiots to be weak.
