His name is Sheikh Ahmad Al-Suhayli. He is a prominent imam in Tunisia. During a recent live television broadcast he, as so many other Muslim clerics before him, demonstrated what the true Muslim peace plan is. He said that “God wants to destroy this sprinkling of Jews,” so he recommended sterilizing Jewish women, whereby, eventually, the Jews would suffer death by attrition.
He described the Jews as having been obstinate since the days of the prophets. “Whenever Allah commanded them to do something, they did the exact opposite.” Referring to the establishment of the nation of Israel, he said, “The Balfour Declaration was a tragedy and a catastrophe for the Palestinians in particular, and for the Arab and Islamic nation in general. He promised a land that he did not own to people who do not deserve it – because it is not the land of the Jews – to pave the way for the racist Zionist movement to rule Palestine and Jerusalem.”
In his prayer he called upon Allah to “Strike them with a resounding blow and do not leave a single one of them. Do not leave a single one of them on Earth. Make the wombs of their woman barren and dry up the loins of their men. Strike them with your hatred and wrath, oh you who delivers harsh punishment and torment.”
The Tunisian Association to Support Minorities (there are about 1,500 Jews in Tunisia) has file suit against the sheikh under a 2011 government decree that criminalizes “calls to hatred between races and religions and the population.”
So tell me again that Islam is a religion of peace. Exactly how are you going to prove that when the vitriolic verbiage from the lips of Islamic leaders is so volatile?
We must concede to one of the imam’s half truths, whether we want to admit it or not. The Jewish people in Bible times were often obstinate. They practically drove Moses nuts for 40 years. They rejected God’s plan and demanded a king. He let them have their way, but He also let them bear the consequences. There were times when they followed after other gods. It is recorded history. However, it was Jehovah whom they rebelled against, not Allah. Allah is not God. He may be a god of the Muslims, but he is not the God, the Creator of all things good and the Lover of Israel.
As a father chastens his children, so does Jehovah chasten the Jews. The Scripture foretold that Israel would be scattered among the nations, but that the Lord would also bring them back together into the land as a nation, and that they would prosper there, just as they have. He established His covenants with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and David. With Jehovah a covenant is binding. He will not break a covenant.
As the venomous speech of the Islamic leaders and actions of Islamic terrorists organizations attack on all fronts and by various methodologies, let us remember to pray for the peace and security of the Jews, the Eretz Ysrael, and the city of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6). The Mighty God, the One True God, will hear our prayers and heal their land (II Chronicles 7:14).
