To be honest with you I think these kind of images should be banned, they do more harm than good.
The traditional garb, the white beard, but most importantly the spot on his forehead (caused by excessive contact with a hard surface during prayer) is a perfect indication of a Muslim fanatic. An average devout person doesn't develop that spot till they're well in their sixties or seventies. I don't think he's that old.
As a Muslim I grew up with this stereotypical image of an old trusted patriarch, a leader in the community, a devout Muslim, a wise man, someone to turn to for sound advice. I guarantee you this is all the ignorant masses among the Muslim population will see in these images...couple that with the content of his speech and all you get is increased support for the terror networks.
