Following are excerpts from a Friday sermon delivered in Baghdad by Sheik Jalal Al-Din Al-Saghir, and aired on Al-Furat TV on May 22, 2009.

Sheik Jalal Al-Din Al-Saghir: In the Green Zone, there is a place [of entertainment] for the children of top officials only. It is run by an organization that calls itself an NGO, which is supported by an international entity that gives it money. What do they hand out in that club? They hand out drugs and alcohol free of charge. What does this mean? An NGO that hands out alcohol, which is forbidden [by Islamic law], to innocent young men, free of charge – all this costs money. Who pays for this? Near Baghdad University, hormone injections are given to young men free of charge: “Try this, you will feel...” All this costs money. People don’t understand this.

[...]

The same thing happens with girls as well. This is not a joke. I cannot explain this. The number of liquor stores rises drastically, and then you realize that an international entity is giving $20,000 to anyone who opens a liquor store, and $30,000 to anyone who opens a night club. Can you tell me this has nothing to do with the Mossad? I swear that the Israeli Mossad is behind all this.
