#6  If this "imam" wants to demonstrate his interfaith bonafides, then lets see him lead the call for churches and synagogues to open in muslim countries. Until he does that, and gets results, he is full of caca.

#3  I'm betting the next imam installed in the cleveland mosque will have an authentic track record of hate toward non-muslims. It just won't be a track record so easily exposed.

#2  "...was committed to explaining Islam in churches and synagogues. "

Why do these half-wits insist on seeing this behavior as an example of "Muslim tolerance" (Mr. Oxy, meet Mr. Moron)?

If he was explaining Judaism and Christianity (positively) to Muslims in mosques that's one thing.

But this way, all he's doing is spreading Taquiya (sp?) and propaganda to suppor the Islamofascist invasion.

#1  Alzaree, 38, the former spiritual leader of the Islamic Center of Omaha, was to be the mosque's first permanent imam since Fawaz Damra. Damra was deported to the Middle East in January on charges that he falsified his citizenship application by failing to disclose ties to extremist groups.

Leaders of the Parma mosque said that they investigated Alzaree's background and that a major reason they hired him was his commitment to interfaith work. Reports from the Omaha mosque and others in the religious community in Nebraska confirmed Alzaree was committed to explaining Islam in churches and synagogues.

But no sooner did the mosque announce his hiring than bloggers posted part of a 2003 "end times" sermon in which Alzaree quoted the Prophet Muhammad saying one sign of the approach of the Day of Judgment is that "the Muslims will kill the Jews." Bloggers also reported that Wagdy Ghoneim, a controversial cleric, spoke at the Omaha mosque.
