A preacher for the Iraqi Shi'ite militia of Hizbullah al-Nujaba was filmed inciting against Jews, Bedouins, Americans, and Sunni Muslims in a fiery speech to its forces fighting in Syria last week.
Sheikh Akram Al-Kabi, al-Nujaba's leader, riled up the audience at a Friday sermon at Khaled Ibn Al-Walid mosque south of Aleppo, the Middle Eastern Research Media Institute (MEMRI) reports.
The video was uploaded to the internet.
"My brothers, heroes of the Shi'a, repeat after me three times: No to America," Al-Kabi began. He then introduced similar chants: "No to Israel," and 'Death to the Nawasib (Sunnis)!"
After the crowd repeated the chants, Al-Kabi spoke about "victory" over the "American-Zionist-Bedouin-Jahili-Nasibi" enemy - apparently referring to non-Muslim Arabs and Sunni Muslims - and praised Sharia law as an example of "Islam's might, power, and greatness as well as its tolerance, justness and moral values."
He also called Sunni Muslims as "the mercenaries of Jews and Americans."
