Bassem Youssuf: "We constantly hear about 'heretic laïcité,' 'licentious secularism,' and 'democracy that can go to hell,' implemented by the infidel secular countries, but Islam is spreading in these secular countries more than in the Arab world. In the so-called 'infidel' secular countries, mosques are being built, and Islam is the fastest growing religion there. They don’t care if there are bars, strip clubs, or porn around, because they follow the principle of 'live and let live.' "Our problem here – and this saddens me greatly – is that the people who hold the reins of power, and who brought us the good tidings of an Islamic state, are chasing people away from Islam. This is a terrible thing that saddens me greatly." Click here to view this clip on MEMRI TV.
