--SNIP--- Abouhatab delivered at least three sermons at the Al-Aqsa Islamic Society over the course of several months starting in November, when he was recorded calling Jews “the vilest” people and, in a discussion of the 1982 Sabra and Shatila massacre in Lebanon, referred to former Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin as a “Polish crook” who would slit open a woman’s belly.

The statements contained in a five-minute compilation video were released last week by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), which monitors and translates Arabic and Muslim media. The Inquirer has confirmed the accuracy of the translation with several area professors who are fluent in Arabic. The professors also viewed one hour-long sermon from which several of the excerpts were taken.

Am I the only one starting to see a pattern? /S

North Philly, jeesh.

if Prime Minister Begin was so horrible, its time for Jerusalem to take back the Sinai desert (which Begin gave away, due to the Nazi-peanut farmer)

The imam, who speaks limited English and is known for his skill in reciting the Quran, has spoken at several area mosques . . .

Well there you have it. He was just reciting from the Quran.

North Philly is a sewer, similar to Chester PA and Camden NJ...

It was once a thriving central and eastern European neighborhood: Polish, German, Lithuanian and Ukrainian. Then the postwar years came.

Thank goodness those no good, murdering, jihadi, terrorist Polish, German, Lithuanian and Ukrainian all move out, huh?

[EEGator]

Now it’s Blacks, PR’s, and Dominicans.
They can ruin anything...

[Publius]

Those Poles were as tough as the Italians and Irish. You didn’t want to tangle with them if you could avoid it.

This is also called Mosque #12. When I was working in the PA Dept of Corrections we were told to confiscate any korans from the #12 Mosque. Was on the Security Threat Group List!

[Kid Shelleen]

He could say he was hypnotized by the Israelis.

They are now protected
