A leading mosque in London is selling DVDs that proclaim the coming mass extermination of Jews around the world on a "day of judgment." It also attacks Christian groups and the United Nations. One excerpt shows a preacher, Sheikh Feiz, imitating the sounds of a pig and referring to the Jewish people who will be killed on the "day of judgment." Another preacher, Sheikh Yassin, states that United Nations missionaries and Christians conspired to inject an AIDS virus in inoculations against diseases in Africa. Sheikh Abdul Aziz al-Sheikh, beamed into the Green Lane mosque suggests that Muslim children should be hit if they don't pray: 'When he is seven, tell him to go and pray, and start hitting them when they are 10.' Another preacher is heard saying that if a girl 'doesn't wear hijab, we hit her'. 1:56:13 PM

The CBC's idea of how to help dispel stereotypes and prejudices about religion: 'Little Mosque on the Prairie' In one scene, a Muslim father says to his scantily-clad daughter that she "looks like a Protestant." When she tries to correct him by suggesting that he meant prostitute, he repeats: "No, I meant Protestant." Hey CBC way to dispel stereotypes! 12:09:13 PM
