The leader of the Islamic Movement in Israel says the new Muslim Caliphate is coming soon. So we have that to look forward to.
Radical Islamic leader Sheikh Raed Salah, head of the Northern Branch of the Islamic Movement in Israel, took advantage of the situation to make some inflammatory statements of his own. Speaking at a mass rally on Friday in Um El-Fahm, one of Israel’s largest Arab cities, Salah said he hopes the Pope’s remarks were “a slip of the tongue - because if not, his words are a direct call to the nations of Europe to stand behind President Bush and Israel in their war against Islam.”
Salah also threatened that Jerusalem would soon be taken over: “Very soon, Jerusalem will be the capital of the new Moslem Khalifate, and the Khalif will dwell there.”
