In two Friday Sermons preached on July 18 and July 25, 2104 Sheik Mohamed Elemam of the Chicago, IL Islamic Center encouraged Muslims, and his congregation to wage Jihad (Holy War) against the Sovereign State of Israel. The Iman Elimam urged Muslims and his Congregation to 'Hasten to Palestine" if they are to prove they are "Real Mujahideen".
.
This call to war by a religious leader is contradictory to the separation of Church and State and violates the laws of the United States by directing Citizens of the US to wage war against a Sovereign State that our President refers to as a "good friend and ally of the United States".
We, the undersigned respectfully request that our President publicly censure this cleric and his comments inciting citizens to war on our ally.
