(OPINION) An Islamist preacher has called for ‘the final solution’ and for Muslims worldwide to unite and establish an army to defend Islamic countries against the West.

Speaking at the Al Madina Dawah Centre in Bankstown, south-western Sydney, on Friday, a man known as Brother Muhammad raged about the ongoing war in Gaza.

‘This is the barbarity, this is the inhumane nature of this Israeli-Zionist state,’ he told worshippers in a video seen by Daily Mail Australia.

The Israel-Palestine conflict ‘has to be a spark for the umma (Muslim community) and a spark to the final solution,’ Brother Muhammad said.

The term ‘the final solution’ was used by the Nazis during World War Two to describe their policy of exterminating Jewish people.

In the sermon the preacher called for the Muslim world to unite ‘under one leader, the khalifa, the imam, the sultan, that implements the sharia of Allah Subhanahu wa ta’ala and he sends Muslim armies to defend the lands of Islam’.

The radical cleric also compared what is happening in Gaza to other conflicts which involve or did involve Muslim populations, such as those in Syria, Chechnya and Bosnia.

‘The final solution is we must be united as one state under a Muslim government,’ he said.

‘All these lands must be united under one leader who implements the Koran and sunnah way of life: it will use its resources, its oil, its army to defend its people.

‘The Muslim community needs a Muslim army to defend it and the lands of Islam … to fight for them and protect them.

‘This is the only solution … everyone has to work for this cause in any way that they can.’

Brother Muhammad said countries such as the US, UK and France ‘were frothing at the mouth (over the war in Gaza) – they couldn’t wait until the butchering began’.

He said Western countries were ‘falling over themselves’ to back Israel and that the conflict in the Middle East was the latest act in a 1,000-year war to destroy the ‘ummah’ (worldwide Muslim community).

The preacher also claimed Israel was using artificial intelligence (AI) to kill children.

‘They (Israel) put information in, the computer crunches the numbers, it gives them some targets, they press the buttons, and hundreds of civilians and children are killed in one go,’ he said.
