CAIR: Hate Speech Applauded at Florida Synagogue
April 28, 2009The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) today call on members of the Jewish community to condemn the anti-Islam hate of a speaker who was recently given a standing ovation at a Florida synagogue. CAIR said the speech by Dutch anti-Islam extremist politician Geert Wilders took place at a "large synagogue in Palm Beach." In the speech, Wilders went through his usual laundry list of hate-filled views, including his claim that "Islam is not a religion" and "the right to religious freedom should not apply to this totalitarian ideology called Islam," all to the applause of the audience. Wilders also called for stopping immigration from Muslim countries and urged "voluntary repatriation" to those countries. Full release.
