The Florida Department of Education on Thursday told Reviver Academy that it has a week to explain its relationship with Fadi Kablawi, an imam at the Golden Glades mosque who in a religious ceremony last month referred to Israeli soldiers as "worse than the Nazis."
His remarks, some of which were made in Arabic, were posted online by the Middle East Media Research Institute, whose translation included Kablawi characterizing Jews as "apes and pigs" and praying to "annihilate" them.
"In Florida, we will not tolerate calls for genocide," Cathy Russell, the deputy executive director of the office that oversees the state's school choice program, wrote in a letter to the school.
