The Charity Commission is to investigate the group running a Birmingham mosque whose manager was exposed by the JC for sharing videos that appeared to indicate support for the Taliban and compared Israel to Nazi Germany.

Saddique Hussein, the manager at Central Jamia Mosque Ghamkol Sharif, shared a video from the far-right American media outlet ‘TruNews’ in which pastor Rick Wiles - who has previously claimed that Jews are “decievers” who “plot” and “lie” - explicitly compared the actions of Israel to the Nazis.

Mr Hussein also uploaded a video that said: “I am Israel – I have the power to control American policy. My American Israel Public Affairs committee can make or break any politician of its choosing.”

He also posted a clip on Facebook that appeared to indicate support for the Taliban.
