Randy Fine calls on state to suspend license of Muslim dentist calling for ‘murder of Florida’s Jews’

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Rep. Randy Fine, R-Palm Bay, issued a letter on Monday calling for the state’s board of dentistry to suspend the license of a Muslim dentist who purportedly called for the “murder of Florida’s Jews,” according to Fine.

“Muslim terrorists are in our midst, and one is practicing dentistry courtesy of the people of the state of Florida,” Fine said in a letter to Florida Board of Dentistry Chairman Dr. Jose Mellado.

He explained how Dr. Fadi Kablawi, a dentist in North Miami, reportedly advocated for the “murder of Florida’s Jews” during a sermon he led at a local mosque in April.

The state representative referenced an April 26 sermon. Excerpts of the sermon can be found here.

Fine said that Kablawi asked God to “annihilate the tyrannical Jews” and referred to those who practice Judaism as “brothers of apes and pigs.”

He also reported that Kablawi spoke of annihilating Zionists as well during an earlier sermon in the aftermath of Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023 terrorist attack on Israel.

“North Miami where Dentist Kablawi practices contains many Jewish residents, none of whom could be considered safe in Iman Kablawi’s dental chair, where he could personally implement what he is asking Allah to do,” Fine said.

“Practicing medicine in Florida is a privilege – not a right – and as the chairman of the Florida House Health and Human Services Committee, I call on you to immediately suspend Dr. Kablawi’s license and commence a thorough investigation into his practice,” he said.

He argued that the lives of some Florida Jews could “hang in the balance” of their decision.
