Miami, FL – The Florida Legislative Jewish Caucus calls for the suspension of Dr. Fadi Kablawi’s dental license after he made inflammatory and violent, antisemitic remarks.
During a sermon on April 26th, Kablawi called for the murder of Jews and also called the current Israeli regime “worse than the Nazis.” Kablawi is an imam at Masjid As Sunnah An Nabawiyyah.
Former State Representative Joe Geller from North Miami states that “This alarming and hateful speech is unacceptable and frightening. Calling for the annihilation of an ethnic group amounts to genocide. Patients deserve to be protected from this violent and dangerous individual. This cannot be tolerated in a civilized society.”
North Miami, the area where Dr. Kablawi practices, is home to an expansive and diverse Jewish population. The Florida Legislative Jewish Caucus is deeply concerned with Dr. Kablawi’s incendiary rhetoric and the potential danger it poses to his patients. All Floridians deserve to feel safe when seeking medical care. We ask that the Florida Board of Dentistry review our concerns and take necessary action to revoke Dr. Kablawi’s license and ensure the safety and wellbeing of our citizens.
