Former Illinois Congressman Joe Walsh from Chicago’s northwest suburbs went off on the reason Barack Obama ‘hates’ Israel.

It’s because, according to Walsh, Obama is secretly a Muslim.

Walsh, who is now a radio talk show host appearing on several stations, explained his position on his Twitter feed admitting that when he says Obama is really a Muslim it makes his radio station and the GOP uncomfortable.

Walsh laid out his case in a series of Tweets.

For the past week, everybody has been asking again why Obama hates Israel. The answer is simple really: I think Obama is Muslim. /1

I've been saying that for awhile now. It makes the GOP uneasy when I say he's a Muslim. It makes my radio stations uneasy when I say it. /2

I say it because I believe it. Look, I know there are many other radio talk show hosts, many other members of Congress… /3

…many other Fox News personalities who privately believe Obama is Muslim but are afraid to say it publicly in fear of losing ratings. /4

For better or worse, I'm not afraid to say it publicly. I think Obama is Muslim. I think in his head and in his heart he has always been. /5

And I think it explains Obama's hatred toward Israel and explains his weakening of America these past 8 years.

It's not complicated. /x

Barack Obama has always publicly insisted he is a Christian but also has a history of saying extremely positive things about Islam. During the National Prayer Breakfast in 2015, for instance, Obama slammed the Christian Bible while praising the Muslim Quran. The President is also well-known for having said in 2007 that the Muslim call to prayer is “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”

Obama also sat in the audience for 20 some years as his favorite reverend, Jeremiah Wright, denounced the U.S. and Israel from the pulpit of his Chicago-based Trinity United Church of Christ.

Walsh has also stirred several controversies since he left Congress. As The Blaze notes, in October he got in trouble for what many felt was a “veiled threat” to push an armed revolt if Donald Trump were to lose the November elections. Twitter suspended his account for a short time as a result.

Walsh was also criticized for saying, “watch out punks” in response to the Black Lives Matter movement’s attacks on police officers. The talk show host also complained earlier this month that Barack Obama blocked him on Twitter.

However, Walsh isn’t only prone to throwing red meat to his conservative audience. Recently he was praised by liberals and thoroughly criticized by many of his own fans for insisting that the Russians hacked the U.S. elections and that the U.S. should retaliate against Vladimir Putin.
