Palestinian Authority TV captured an imam calling on fellow Muslims to “drive out the Jews” from Jerusalem, if not by peaceful means, then by force.
The preacher called for the act of violence during a Friday sermon at the Al-Omari mosque.
His remarks came in context of advancing the idea that Jerusalem rightfully belonged to the “Palestinian” people, not the Jews.

He also slammed President Donald Trump, and his “failed” administration.
From Breitbart:
The Palestinians will take Jerusalem “if not peacefully then by force,” an imam on official Palestinian Authority TV threatened recently, before calling on Allah to help the Muslims “drive out the Jews” from the holy city.
During a Friday sermon at the Al-Omari mosque, the preacher relayed the discussions that had arisen during the 9th International Islamic Jerusalem Conference in Ramallah last month.
“At the conference they determined that Jerusalem is the capital of the State of Palestine, and that it is a religious, Shari’ah and historical right of the Muslims, and of no one else but them,” he said, according to a translation by Israeli watchdog Palestinian Media Watch.
He thanked the non-Muslims in attendance who, even though they do not say that “there is no God but Allah,” are nevertheless “fair” and “courageous” for clarifying “the Muslims’ right to this country, and clarif[ying] that the Jews are nothing but an arrogant and tyrannical enemy that is occupying the land of Jerusalem and the land of Palestine, and that they have no right to arrogance, tyranny and occupation.”
The preacher slammed President Donald Trump and his “failed” administration for declaring Jerusalem the capital of Israel.
“We also note our thanks to the Palestinian leadership for its stable, determined and courageous position regarding the decision of the failed American administration, which declared Jerusalem the capital of the state of the Jews and the capital of the Zionist entity, and this decision has no effect on our principles and values, and Allah willing we continue to walk in the path of our Prophet [Muhammad] and the path of his comrades,” he said.
Nevertheless, the day will soon come, the imam warned, when the Muslims will reclaim Jerusalem, by force if necessary.
“Blessed Allah willing, we will soon take what was taken from us, if not peacefully then by force, Allah willing. And Almighty Allah is with us, Allah will not abandon believers who testify that He is just and that his blessed prophet is the true prophet,” he said.
He then drew a comparison with how Allah helped drive the crusaders out of the Holy Land.
“How long did the European Crusaders live in this country? They lived here nearly 100 years, but by Allah’s will, they left it humiliated. They left it humiliated and disgraced, dragging their tails behind them, because Allah inscribed for this [Islamic] nation eternity and victory. … Allah, protect our Al-Aqsa Mosque and our Jerusalem for us, and return it to the rule and sovereignty of the Muslims. Allah, drive the Jews out of it, humiliated and disgraced, by means of those [the Muslims] who are monotheists, humble and purified,” he concluded.
The same preacher in another sermon broadcast on official PA TV in 2016 asked Allah to “punish the wicked Jews” and prayed for their genocide.
During last month’s Islamic Jerusalem Conference, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas charged that the Palestinians are facing a “big conspiracy” that began 100 years ago with the Balfour Declaration and which continued when Israel sought to “change the historic and legal status of the holy sites in Jerusalem by installing metal detectors.”
Israel installed the metal detectors after Arab terrorists smuggled guns into the Temple Mount and shot and killed two Israeli police officers in July 2017. Israeli authorities removed the detectors days later amid massive protests from Muslims all over the world.
At the same conference, Abbas also slammed Trump and the U.S. for its “flagrant bias” toward Israel and vowed “we won’t accept” any peace deal from the Americans.
Jerusalem, Abbas said, “belongs to us and is our political and spiritual capital. When we say that Jerusalem is our eternal capital, we’re not coming up with anything new. Our Jebusite and Canaanite ancestors built Jerusalem as their capital, and since then there has always been an Arab and Palestinian presence in the city. We are the descendants of the Canaanites.”

And the first Muslim democrat president imported 200,000 yearly legal and illegal muslims and
deported christians back to ISIS to be slaughtered after they tried to make it to America http://tinyurl.com/mtc3xch
And those who dared to help were threatened to shut up and MSM would not cover it !

This is the real face of the Muslim Nationalist movement: Antisemitism!
It’s only the PR arm of the movement in the west (CAIR, Muslim Associations) that presents a politically correct image of their vile group. and CNN perpetuates this FAKE image!

What a joke, Jerusalem NEVER truly belonged to the Arabs or Muslims, they stole it from the Jews and Christians just like they stole almost everything they now possess!

Muslim Nationalists make claims to land that isn’t theirs.
For example, Bin Laden claimed the US was invading Muslim soil during the 1990 Gulf War by having troops in Saudi Arabia. even though those US troops were INVITED by the Saudi Royal family – the rightful owners.

at the conference they determined that Jerusalem is the capital of the State of Palestine, and that it is a religious, Shari’ah and historical right of the Muslims, and of no one else but them,
Shocking conclusion, n’est-pas? Say imam, when did Moslems gain the right to control Jerusalem? How did they get it??
When did Jerusalem become a Moslem capital city? Hint to the clueless: the only thing that Jerusalem has ever been a capital of is the nation of Israel. The mythical nation of Palestine was only founded circa 1967.

This Imam is full of lies and antisemitism. Jerusalem never belonged to the Palestinians or the Muslims. What is the land of Israel never belonged to the Muslims or Palestinians. This land belonged to the true God who revealed himself thru Jesus Christ and the true God gave this land to the people of Israel. The only claim that Muslims can make is that in times past is that they fought and conquered a land that was never theirs.

Israel has been Jewish for 2000 years before mutgonad, police beat upon him, was spawned, islam has no claim on anything anywhere, other than that of theft.

” “Blessed Allah willing, we will soon take what was taken from us”
What Allah took from his followers was any semblance whatsoever of any kind of intelligence.

And roughly 1,000 before that, David took the city and Solomon established his kingdom there. These are historic truths.
Sorry, ragheads, but Mo’s little donkey ride doesn’t count.
