A video has surfaced, featuring a Florida-based imam, Dr. Fadi Kablawi, delivering a sermon filled with anti-Semitic sentiments and calling for the destruction of Jews.
The imam also made a controversial comparison, labeling the Israeli military as "worse than the Nazis."
The video was live-streamed on Facebook on April 26 from Masjid As Sunnah An Nabawiyyah, a mosque located in North Miami. According to a translation provided by MEMRI TV, the media arm of the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), Kablawi can be heard praying, "Oh Allah, support our oppressed brothers in Palestine. Oh Allah, annihilate the tyrannical Jews. Oh Allah, annihilate them, for they are no match for you."
Kablawi continued his sermon with further inflammatory remarks, praying for the destruction of the "brothers of apes and pigs" and calling upon Allah to "demonstrate upon them the wonders of your might," and to "disperse them and rend them asunder."
The video was initially posted on the mosque's Facebook page before a shortened version was uploaded to MEMRI TV. This incident comes amidst a surge of anti-Semitism on college campuses.
Kablawi, who also runs a dental practice in Florida, criticized the Israeli army for its ongoing conflict in Gaza and made accusations of organ trafficking. The conflict in Gaza began after thousands of Hamas-led terrorists infiltrated southern Israel from Gaza on October 7, resulting in the death of over 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and the abduction of approximately 240 individuals.
"[Israel's army] is the most immoral army, Nazis, they are worse than Nazis and I apologized to the Nazis last week because these people have been proven to be worse than the Nazis," Kablawi is heard saying in English.
Kablawi further accused the Israeli army of stealing the skin of Palestinians, stating, "Organs missing, from children, from adults, organs are missing. Go and find who is behind organ trading in this country or in this world."
He also claimed that Israel had committed similar acts in Haiti following the earthquake, with Israeli organizations operating under the pretense of providing medical assistance.
Fox News Digital reached out to Kablawi for comment but did not receive an immediate response.
Kablawi's comments have sparked severe backlash, particularly from Florida state Representative Randy Fine, who penned a letter to Dr. Jose R. Mellado, chairman of the Florida Board of Dentistry, requesting the suspension of Kablawi's dental license and an investigation into his practice.
"Muslim terrorists are in our midst and one is practicing dentistry courtesy of the people of Florida," Fine wrote in his May 13 letter. He expressed concern for the safety of Jewish residents in North Miami, where Kablawi practices dentistry.
Fine further urged for immediate action, stating, "Practicing medicine in Florida is a privilege not a right and as the Chairman of the Florida House Health and Human Services Committee, I call on you to immediately suspend Dr. Kablawi's license and commence a thorough investigation into his practice. The lives of some of Florida's Jews could hang in the balance."
In his letter, Fine also cited other instances of Kablawis anti-Semitic behavior, noting that the majority of Jews in Florida are Zionists. He quoted Kablawi's sermon from March 8, where the imam prayed for the annihilation of the "accursed Zionists," and another sermon following the October 7 attacks where Kablawi prayed for Allah to "show us the black days that you inflict upon the Jews."
