John Hagee and Incitement to Racial and Religious Hatred

John Hagee is scheduled to appear at a Rally and Prophecy Conference at the Birmingham Symphony Hall, 18-20 August.

Given his provocative and inflammatory statements about Islam, Iran and Israel, I believe the Home Secretary should be asked to ban his visit as an incitement to racial and religious hatred.

 Hagee has for example, advocated a pre-emptive military attack against Iran.

“The United States must join Israel in a pre-emptive military strike against Iran to fulfill God’s plan for both Israel and the West… a biblically prophesied end-time confrontation with Iran, which will lead to the Rapture, Tribulation, and Second Coming of Christ.” Sarah Posner, “Pastor Strangelove” The American Prospect Online,


I believe the Home Secretary should be asked to ban his visit and the management of the Birmingham Symphony Hall urged to cancel his booking.
