Sheikh Yousuf Al-Nasseri, the Deputy Secretary-General of the Al-Nujaba Movement, said in an October 29, 2020 interview on Al-Etejah TV (Iraq) in the wake of recent affairs concerning the Charlie Hebdo cartoons that "the West" trains people, gives them drugs, and sends them out to carry out acts of terror like vehicle-ramming attacks in Western countries. He said that these attacks are then blamed on Islam in order to prevent Westerners from converting to Islam. In addition, he claimed that it is illegal in the United Kingdom to convert an unused church into a mosque because the British government is scared of the spread of Islam.
Sheikh Yousuf Al-Nasseri: "The [Westerners] are taking advantage of... We remember that two years ago, [one of] the terrorists that they trained drove a trailer or a big truck, and ran over and killed the people who were standing there. Later it turned out that this man was mentally ill or insane.
"In fact, they give [the attackers] pills, and they use crazy people. They cultivate terrorists and push them towards killings and crime. Then they present them as terrorists, in order to generate a certain reaction among Westerners, in order to prevent people from converting to Islam.
"Most churches are being turned into mosques. At least in Britain. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of unused churches that have been turned into mosques. About 25 years ago, the British Parliament enacted a law banning the sale of unused and empty churches to Muslims. You may turn a church into a dance club, disco, cinema, or theater, but not into a mosque. That is because they have begun to fear the expansion of Islam, and the conversion of churches into mosques."
