(Chicago) Nation of Islam leader Minister Louis Farrakhan
predicted on Sunday that America faces imminent uprisings that mirror
those in the Middle East.
“What you are looking at in Tunisia, in Egypt … Libya, in Bahrain …
what you see happening there … you’d better prepare because it will be
coming to your door,” Farrakhan said in a booming voice, thousands of
followers cheering in his wake.
Farrakhan also called on President Barack Obama to allow protesters to
march, urging the president not to attack innocent people when they
do.
The controversial minster spoke to a packed house at the Allstate
Arena in Rosemont, Il as part of the 81st annual celebration of
Saviours’ Day, which marks the birth of the faith’s founder, W. Fard
Muhammad.
The keynote address, titled “God will send saviours,” capped a weekend
of workshops focused on health, preparing for natural disasters and
unidentified flying objects. The Nation of Islam believes in a UFO
called “the wheel” or “the Mother Plane.”
Farrakhan has described a 1985 religious experience in which he
ascended into a flying saucer and heard the voice of Elijah Muhammad
predicting historical events that came to pass.
For about four hours, Farrakhan spoke and jumped from topic to topic,
citing religious texts.
He praised Scientology and its founder L. Ron Hubbard.
Farrakhan extolled the virtues of Scientology and its auditing
process, which is considered spiritual counseling by its members.
Nation of Islam leader says his comments on Jews are meant “to pull the cover off Satan” and “Zionists dominate the US government and banks.”

Farrakhan said his comments on Jews were meant “to pull the cover off Satan.”
“President Obama,” Farrakhan said, “if you allow the Zionists to push you, to mount a military offensive against Gaddafi and you go in and kill him and his sons, as you did with Saddam Hussein and his sons… I’m warning you this is a Libyan problem, let the Libyans solve their problem among themselves.”
The Nation of Islam leader also accused American Zionists of attempting to push Israel into war with Iran, stating that “Zionists dominate the government of the United States of America and her banking system.”
Much of this reminds me of Hitler and the killing of the Jews.
