Radical Imam Keeps His Job
Cross-posted from Right on the Right:
He was a jail chaplain, preaching to many inmates in the City of New York. Prisons also happen to be the largest recruiting centers for radical Islam in the United States. The Imam is facing suspension for not making it clear when preaching hate to a College Group that he did not represent the City of New York. He’s facing no repercussions for actually preaching radical Islam however.
IMAM UNDER FIRE FOR INCENDIARY REMARKS KEEPS CITY JOB
NEW YORK New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg says the city’s top jail chaplain will be suspended, but not fired, for using incendiary language like “Zionists of the media” and “terrorists” in the White House.
Bloomberg used the case to defend the First Amendment. The mayor says that the “great dangers that we are facing are not people saying things, it is our reaction in this country to when people say something that we don’t like.”
Umar Abdul-Jalil made his controversial comments last April to a conference sponsored by the Muslim Students Association in Tucson.
Bloomberg says the chaplain will be suspended for two weeks without pay, but not for the controversial content of the speech. Bloomberg says the cleric is being punished because he didn’t follow policy and make it clear to his audience that he wasn’t speaking on behalf of the City of New York.
There are “terrorists in the White House” but this Imam doesn’t recognize the ones that killed thousands of innocent civilians in his own city. This Imam shouldn’t be on payroll from ANY city, let alone the city that suffered most from Radical Islamofascism. I think this Imam should be fired.
