A Michigan imam has encouraged Muslims to wage war against the “infidel West,” describing the United States as an “enemy of the Muslims.”
“The U.S. is more to blame for the genocide in Palestine than the occupying Jews,” the man says in a video.
He notes that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is “no more than a dog” for President Joe Biden.
“It is about time that the Muslims, especially the young – in the West, it is time for them to understand what should already be known” he adds, “that the infidel West, particularly the U.S., are enemies of Muslims.”
“America is a vicious enemy of Muslims,” he asserts.
“If you can’t raise your child telling him you want him to be mujahid and martyr, then you are the root of the problem.”

Similar ideas have been shared by Hamas leaders.
Hamas Senior Official Sami Abu Zuhri called for “violent acts” to be taken against U.S. and U.K. “interests.”
Appearing on Al-Aqsa TV, Zuhri said, “When [U.S. Secretary of State] Blinken is justifying the killing of women and children, the sons of our nation should say to him: You are the enemy, just like Netanyahu, and you must pay the price, just like [Israeli Prime Minister] Netanyahu. We should keep this in mind.”
“Now it is our nation’s turn to pressure the Americans to stop this war. We need violent acts against American and British interests everywhere, as well as the interests of all the countries that support the occupation,” he stated.
