A Palestinian Muslim preacher ranted against the United States and Israel at Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa mosque, where he called on Allah to “annihilate America” and “cut off their heads.”
“Oh Allah, annihilate America and its coalition,” preacher Ali Abu Ahmad said. “Oh Allah, enable us to cut off their heads. Oh Allah, help our brothers, the mujahideen in the land of Iraq and Syria.”
According to the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), which found video of the impromptu sermon and translated it, Abu Ahmad spoke Friday at the Al-Aqsa mosque on the Temple Mount, the holiest site in Judaism and third holiest site to Muslims after Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia.
Shouting so he could get the attention of other worshippers and waving his hands to emphasize his points, Abu Ahmad called for the establishment of an Islamic caliphate and appeared to warn against the danger of U.S. military strikes on Islamic State group strongholds.
“Do you want America to bring you a caliphate tailored to its interests? Such a caliphate would sanction the killing of Muslims, would shed their blood, and would violate the honor of their women, in the name of Islam,” the Palestinian said according to MEMRI.
“Absolutely not, oh servants of Allah. We want a caliphate in the path of the Prophet, which will protect lives, will defend women’s honor, and will liberate Jerusalem from the Jews, the most vile of creatures,” he added.
Abu Ahmad appealed to Muslims to “seek refuge in Allah the Almighty, the Avenger” and warned the current time was “merely a prelude” to the “elimination” of the Jews both in Israel and overseas.
