‘It sounds like Jews, free speech, separation of church and state and capitalism would be ‘gone’ in the paradise awaiting the United States as a shariah-based system.’
A self-described Muslim “imam” delivered a rage-filled rant over being seated next to a Jewish speaker at what was supposed to be a multifaith event, then demanded that Muslims in the audience walk out.
They did.
The stunning exhibition of hate was documented by constitutional expert Jonanthan Turley, who has testified to Congress on the nation’s founding document, and represented members in court on those issues.
“The City College of New York campus began the latest example of anti-Semitic and extremist speech this week after Abdullah Mady, a student and self-proclaimed Imam, refused to sit next to a Jewish speaker and called for the tips of the fingers of ‘the filthy rich’ to be cut off in accordance with Shariah,” which is Islamic social law, he explained.
“Mady sparked a walkout of Muslim attendees at an interfaith religious event after objecting to the fact that he was seated next to Ilya Bratman, an adjunct lecturer and executive director of Hillel at Baruch College, launching into an anti-Semitic diatribe,” Turley explained.
Mady’s exhibition included, “I came here to this event not knowing I would be sitting next to a Zionist and this is something I am not going to accept. My people are being killed right now in Gaza. If you’re a Muslim, out of strength and dignity, I ask you to exit this room immediately.”
About 100 students followed his Shariah-based orders.
Turley also pointed out that Mady was promoting Shariah, pushing for the “tips of the hands of a thief” be cut off to reduce crime.
And he defined those he wants mutilated.
“I’m talking about the elite, the filthy rich, the ones that continue to steal from people as we speak today. Those are the ones that deserve their tips to be cut off,” he claimed.
Turley had his own warning, “What is most notable about these hateful words is how figures like Mady are combining Islamic extremism with the extreme economic messaging in New York, where a socialist was just elected New York mayor.”
He also commented on Mady’s claims that under Shariah, pornography, alcohol, gambling, interest all is gone.
“Indeed, it sounds like Jews, free speech, separation of church and state and capitalism would be ‘gone’ in the paradise awaiting the United States as a shariah-based system,” he said.
The New York Post said the university now is investigating.
A school official said, “The City College of New York has zero tolerance for acts of hate or bigotry of any kind. We are investigating this incident and will promptly take all necessary and appropriate actions to address any such discrimination and remedy its effects.”
The report described Mady as delivering “a Jew-hating tirade.”
