RALEIGH, North Carolina, 11 October 2006 — Franklin Graham, a Christian evangelist whose criticism of Islam has frequently outraged Muslims, said Islam teaches its followers to “persecute” others until they convert, with the aim being “total domination.” Graham’s comments, reported in The News & Observer on Monday, came as the evangelist said he plans to rebuild hundreds of churches that have been destroyed by the Sudanese government and its allied militias.

“There’s a war taking place against the church of Jesus Christ in Africa,” Graham said, arguing that the battle pits Muslims against Christians in countries such as Ethiopia and Sudan, where fighting in the Darfur region has left 200,000 people killed and 2.5 million other homeless. In the wake of the 2001 attacks on the United States, Graham outraged Muslims in 2001 when he said that Islam “is a very evil and wicked religion.”

In an interview last March, he told ABC News’ “Nightline” that he had not changed his mind about the faith. In his latest salvo, Graham told The News & Observer: “It’s the teaching of Islam that is not tolerant of any other faith.”

“It’s world domination. When they dominate an area, they’ll let other belief systems exist, but they’ll persecute them so that (people) convert to Islam and there’s total domination. Once you’re in Islam you can’t get out of it. If you leave Islam you have to be killed,” said Graham, who was scheduled to speak later yesterday at a fund-raiser for the work in Sudan by his international Christian relief group, Samaritan’s Purse.

“There are intractable political problems in which religion becomes a language to express political grievances,” Moosa said.
