Following are excerpts from a public address delivered by Sheikh Abd Al-Jabbar Sa'id, secretary-general of the Association of Palestinian Islamic Scholars Abroad. Next to him on the stage, Dr. Salah Sultan, president of the Columbus, Ohio-based American Center for Islamic Research, led the crowd in shouting "Allah Akhbar!" The clip aired on Al-Aqsa TV on December 9, 2010.

In March 2010, Dr. Sultan said on Hamas's Al-Aqsa TV that Jews murder non-Jews to use their blood for Passover matzos (see MEMRI TV Clip No. 2443, http://www.memri.org/legacy/clip/0/0/0/0/239/0/2443); in February 2009, he said that Judgment Day would not come until Muslims fight the Jews and kill them, and that America would suffer destruction (see MEMRI TV Clip No. 2165, As Gaza Fighting Continues, Egyptian Clerics Intensify Antisemitic Statements; Columbus, Ohio Muslim Scholar/Leader Dr. Salah Sultan: Muhammad Said That Judgment Day Will Not Come Until Muslims Fight the Jews and Kill Them; America Will Suffer Destruction).
