“I call up the resolution (H. Res. 343) to express the sense of the House of Representatives condemning the racist, anti-Catholic, and anti-Semitic speech given by a senior representative of the Nation of Islam and all manifestations and expressions of hatred based on race, religion, and ethnicity. The House of Representatives strongly oppose racism, anti-Catholicism, anti-Semitism, and all forms of ethnic or religious intolerance; Whereas the racist, anti-Catholic, and anti-Semitic speech given by Kahlid Abdul Muhammad of the Nation of Islam at Kean College on November 29, 1993, incites divisiveness and violence on the basis of race, religion, and ethnicity; and Whereas Mr. Muhammad specifically justifies the slaughter of Jews during the Holocaust as fully deserved; disparages the Pope in the most revolting personal terms; and calls for the assassination of every white infant, child, man, and woman in South Africa: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives condemns the speech given by Kahlid Abdul Muhammad as outrageous hatemongering of the most vicious and vile kind.”
