Nation of Islam leader Minister Louis Farrakhan predicted on Sunday that America faces imminent uprisings that mirror those in the Middle East.
“What you are looking at in Tunisia, in Egypt … Libya, in Bahrain … what you see happening there … you’d better prepare because it will be coming to your door,” Farrakhan said in a booming voice, thousands of followers cheering in his wake.
Farrakhan also called on President Barack Obama to allow protesters to march, urging the president not to attack innocent people when they do.
The controversial minster spoke to a packed house at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont as part of the 81st annual celebration of Saviours’ Day, which marks the birth of the faith’s founder, W. Fard Muhammad.
The keynote address, titled “God will send saviours,” capped a weekend of workshops focused on health, preparing for natural disasters and unidentified flying objects. The Nation of Islam believes in a UFO called “the wheel” or “the Mother Plane.”
Farrakhan has described a 1985 religious experience in which he ascended into a flying saucer and heard the voice of Elijah Muhammad predicting historical events that came to pass.
For about four hours, Farrakhan spoke and jumped from topic to topic, citing religious texts.
He praised Scientology and its founder L. Ron Hubbard.
Farrakhan extolled the virtues of Scientology and its auditing process, which is considered spiritual counseling by its members.
“L. Ron Hubbard is so exceedingly valuable to every Caucasian person on this earth,” Farrakhan said.
“… L. Ron Hubbard himself was and is trying to civilize white people and make them better human beings and take away from them their reactive minds … Mr. Hubbard recognized that his people have to be civilized,” Farrakhan said to a cheering crowd.
Farrakhan also said Moammar Gadhafi has always been a friend and he won’t distance himself from the Libyan dictator.
Farrakhan didn’t discuss specifics about the deadly uprisings in Libya.
But the 77-year-old said no leader has been loved by 100 percent of his people and said that if Gadhafi is persecuted for crimes against humanity, the same should apply to former President George W. Bush for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Farrakhan visited Gadhafi in the 1980s and in 1996 accepted a humanitarian award from him. But during his speech Sunday he warned the wave of revolution spreading across the Middle East is coming to the United States.

Here we go loop-dee-loop.
This man needs to be placed on a watch list. He is inciting riots and should probably be made to paygir nuch shneller iz besser!
i agree there will be some unrest here in one form or another, but unlike the middle east it will be a much more even playing field without it getting to out of hand, because in the u.s millions of civilians are armed with the best of weaponry which will help keep people in check
You mean we’ll be lining up at banks for our guvmint hush money just like in Libya?
And the thing with UFOs I had never heard. Meshug.
Louey is insane! Does he realize that arab muslims not only hate each other, but their super hate list includes black muslims, as evidenced by Darfur. What a sell out to his brothers. And then he talks about “civilized”? What is civilized about arabia? What is civilized about what is going on to his fellow black muslims in Darfur? I can only imagine what he would say if white people were committing the world atrocities as in arab islam and in the Sudan.
So this is what you get when you combine black ignorance and muslim craziness.
They don’t call him Calipso Louie for nothing!
Number 7 is it Louie or looney
I’m suprised,
he’s such a good friend of Obama, I don’t know why he would say such a thing!
He IS a looney-toon.
BUT…
That does not mean he’s not dangerous!
He IS!
No. 7: How much do they get paid for calling Farrakhan “Calipso Louie”? And who pays them? And how can I get in on that?
He’s lost it. Hopefully those few followers he still has will realize his mental state and will abandon him, as the late son of Elijah Muhammad did decades ago.
