(News.com.au) A Sydney Islamic preacher who delivered a fiery sermon that defended Hamas for murdering 1400 Israeli civilians has caught the attention of police.
“Brother Ismail” delivered the controversial sermon, which was uploaded on YouTube, at the Al Madina Dawah Centre in southwest Sydney on October 27 this year.
NSW Police told news.com.au they were “aware of the comments and have commenced an investigation.” No charges have been laid.
In the sermon, Brother Ismail warned the federal government that Australia is “pushing Muslims into a corner.”
“By labelling Hamas as terrorists, by saying Israel has the right to defend itself you are pushing Muslims into a corner,” he thundered.
