During a Friday sermon in Khartoum on Dec. 7 that aired on Sudan TV, Sheikh Muhammad Tannoun talked about The Protocols of the Elders of Zion and said that the Jews want to control the world through their religion.

He accused the Jews of being behind every war in history, including both world wars, and all wars taking place in the world today because they can only live in an atmosphere of corruption and strife.

He added that there is no point in normalizing relations with the Jews because the conflict with them is a religious war than can only be settled through jihad.

Tannoun concluded the sermon with a prayer for the annihilation of the Jews.
