Louis Farrakhan spoke at a Catholic church Thursday night in the wake of his Facebook ban and denied that he hates Jewish people while ranting about “Satanic Jews.”
The Nation of Islam leader spoke at the controversial St. Sabina Church on Chicago’s South Side, where he claimed to not be a preacher of hatred while castigating those who he said did not follow “God’s word.”
“I’m here to separate the good Jews from the Satanic Jews,” Farrakhan said alongside radical activist Rev. Michael Pfleger, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.
“I have not said one word of hate. I do not hate Jewish people. Not one that is with me has ever committed a crime against the Jewish people, black people, white people. As long as you don’t attack us, we won’t bother you.”


German Palestinians violently attacked the Israeli clarinetist Daniel Gurfinkel in Berlin in the first week of May, according to a YouTube video that surfaced on Thursday.
According to a report by German reporter Ulrich W. Sahm on the website of Audiator, “A dozen hateful Palestinians can be seen beating up Daniel Gurfinkel at an event on a large square.”
Gurfinkel said in a statement: “I walked through Hermann square and saw that there was a demonstration against Israel. I am a resident of the State of Israel. The attack began immediately when I began to support my country with a single word. I’ve been struck on the head and I’m in pain so far. I was in total shock. ”

Gazan protesters are expected to return to the border on Friday for the first time since the temporary ceasefire and with less than a week before marking the Nakba (or “catastrophe”) where Palestinians commemorate the more than 700,000 Palestinians who fled or were expelled in the 1948 war that followed Israel’s creation.
Palestinian militant factions have threatened to resume fighting if protesters are shot on the border or if the ceasefire deal is not implemented, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has warned repeatedly that the campaign in Gaza has not ended.

Israeli law enforcement, including police and border police, are deployed throughout East Jerusalem and the Old City as security precaution some 135,000 Muslim worshipers travel from the West Bank and throughout Israel to attend prayers at the Al-Aqsa mosque for the first Friday of Ramadan.
Some streets in East Jerusalem have been shut down to accommodate traffic to the conflict-embroiled area at the Har Habayis compound.
Police warned that they would “act decisively against anyone who tries to disrupt the peace,” and encouraged worshipers to adhere to police orders.

Israel is set to begin easing restrictions in place on the Gaza Strip on Friday, in a test of the fragile calm on the border a week after a deadly escalation that nearly brought the sides to the brink of an all-out war.
A statement from COGAT, the defense ministry liaison responsible for affairs in the Palestinian territories, said that a 12-nautical mile fishing zone off Gaza’s coast would be re-opened Friday.
Border crossings in and out of the Strip were re-opened at midnight, at the end of Israel’s Memorial Day and Independence Day. Such closures are standard around Israeli public holidays.
