Bangladeshi American and other Bengali activists have condemned a decision by U.S. border authorities to admit extremist preacher, Mizanur Rahman Azhari, into the United States to speak at an Islamist conference in Philadelphia.
Azhari entered the United States despite being previously excluded from the United Kingdom because of his extremism, and is reportedly in exile from his home country of Bangladesh.
Azhari’s extremism is indisputable. In an undated video disseminated among Bangladeshi activists, and translated by FWI, Azhari declares that Hitler was “divine punishment” for the Jews, blames the Jews for various troubles of the world, including AIDS, and states that, “The Jews are the biggest terrorists of the world” and a “poisonous blemish.”
In 2021, British MP Bob Blackman told the UK’s House of Commons that Azhari was working to spread a “message of hatred against Jews and Hindus,” and labelled the Bangladeshi imam as a “hate preacher.”
Consequently, authorities in Doha prevented Azhari from boarding a plane to the United Kingdom.
Now, Bangladeshi activists are calling for Azhari’s visa to be revoked.
Activist and lawyer Mufassil Islam asks how Azhari is allowed to enter the United States “when he is well-documented as a hate preacher” who calls for the killing of ex-Muslims, and the subjugation of Jews and Christians.
Mufassil Islam also notes that Azhari is a “close associate” of Zakir Naik, an Indian Islamist fugitive, wanted by Indian authorities for alleged involvement with terror financing.
Azhari will be speaking at a conference on August 17 organized by the Muslim Ummah of North America (MUNA). MUNA serves as the American outpost of Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh, a violent South Asian Islamist movement that carried out acts of mass-murder during the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War….
