Algeria, Lebanon, North Africa | Special Dispatch No. 5038

Recently on the TV show that he hosts on the Lebanese Mayadeen channel, Swedish-Algerian journalist Yahya Abu Zakariya chided Muslim immigrants to the West for their "rotten ethics," saying that 80% of them "are beggars, living on Western welfare." He also accused mosque managers of stealing internal funds and said that some Muslim preachers "spend their nights watching porn, instead of giving lessons to Islamic children." The show aired October 12, 2012 (click here to view this clip on MEMRI TV).

A week later, on October 18, Abu Zakariya used his TV show to rebuke Muslims who accuse others of apostasy and sanction their killing. Abu Zakariya said that instead of being met by black-eyed virgins in Paradise, they would be spending the rest of their days with Golda Meir in Hell (click here to view this clip on MEMRI TV).

Following are excerpts from both shows:

Yahya Abu Zakariya's Show, October 12, 2012

80% Of Muslims In The West Are Beggars

TV host Yahya Abu Zakariya: "It has become customary for the sheikhs preaching in mosques to talk, in their sermons and lectures, about 'the infiltrating infidel West,' 'the European-Crusader West,' 'the abode of infidels and the abode of Islam.'

"I have presented claims that the Muslims in Andalusia engaged in fornication, homosexuality, and debauchery. Today, if you go to the West and tour the European continent, where there are 50 million Muslims... 80% of these Muslims are beggars, living on Western welfare. In other words, the European pays taxes, and the state gives the Muslim money to buy food.

"The Muslim in the West does not earn his daily bread. If he were in the Islamic world, he would die – even the cows and the goats cannot get their sustenance in the Islamic world. 80% are unemployed."

Muslims In The West Practice "Rotten Ethics"

Yahya Abu Zakariya: "Let me give you an example from Sweden. There are 500 Islamic associations and only one Jewish association. Every mosque in Europe suffers from theft. In accordance with the European law for support of religions and cultural diversity, the state provides Muslims with funding, and the managers of the mosques steal those funds.

"At times, you encounter an imam who employs his wife as the floor sweeper, and then tells her to stay at home.

"Then you have fake divorces. A Muslim divorces his wife on paper, and when social services give her a home, he takes his wife back and they rent out the house on the black market.

"I used to visit Muslim prisoners in the West. Those drug dealers and rapists would say to me: Tell the warden to get us halal food. They wanted their meat slaughtered in the Islamic way. I would say to them: Even if you were eating pork, it would renounce you. You peddle drugs in the name of Muhammad and Islam, yet you claim that you belong to the pure Islamic civilization."

"The Muslims do not rise to the level of their religion. The bombings that took place in London, in Madrid, and all around, the Western image of a Muslim boastfully slaughtering... The camera shows a long-bearded Muslim slaughtering another Muslim, while crying 'Allah Akbar.'

"What do you expect from the West when it is exposed to such rotten ethics? To simply ignore this and absolve them?"

"Let's Stop Slaughtering One Another"

Ali Abd Al-Aal: "Man, you are weird."

Yahya Abu Zakariya: "As weird as the Islamic world."

Ali Abd Al-Aal: "I really don't know what to do about you."

Yahya Abu Zakariya: "May God help you."

Ali Abd Al-Aal: "Give me a chance to talk here. We are aware of everything you mentioned. These things exist, but I don't think we should be wasting your time, my time, and that of the viewers on your listing of tragedies, afflictions, and crimes..."

Yahya Abu Zakariya: "I did not come here in order to denounce America and Europe. I am entirely with you: Let's bring down America, but first, let's stop slaughtering one another, and then we can attack America."

Ali Abd Al-Aal: "Brother, I didn't ask you to denounce anyone. I have come here to discuss relations between the West and the Arab and Islamic civilization. Any toddler in Cairo or Yemen could say all the things you said. This is known to all."

[...]

"Don't believe that all the Muslims are like that. Who told you that? Islam is full of respect for animals, and even for inanimate objects." [...]

Some Preachers "Spend Their Nights Watching Porn"

Yahya Abu Zakariya: "We used to invite some Islamic preachers to Western capitals. We would tell them that it is difficult to arrange morning sessions for them, because most Islamic students are at school. It's better to do it at night. But some of those preachers preferred to spend their nights watching porn, instead of giving lessons to Islamic children." [...]

Yahya Abu Zakariya's Show, October 18, 2012

Yahya Abu Zakariya: "Oh people who accuse others of heresy, oh you who have gone astray, have distorted the image of Allah's messenger, and have killed the compassion in your own hearts – there is room for everybody in Islam. Allah's gate for repentance is always open. A man is absolved even if he repents only 15 minutes before his death.

"Do you think that by killing Issa, Musa, Muhammad, Khaled, Hassan, and Hussein you will enter Paradise and be greeted by the black-eyed virgins? Indeed, black-eyed virgins await you... Golda Meir awaits you! You will be spending the rest of your days with her in Hell." [...]
