BLOOMY SUSPENDS 'HATE TALK' IMAM

    The head Islamic chaplain for the city jail system was suspended yesterday after he claimed Muslims were being tortured in Manhattan lock-ups, and declared that the "greatest terrorists in the world occupy the White House."

    Mayor Bloomberg and City Correction Commissioner Martin Horn put Abdul-Jalil on paid administrative leave from his $76,602-a-year job, pending the outcome of an investigation into his inflammatory remarks.

    Last April, a counterterrorism organization, the Investigative Project, secretly recorded two speeches Abdul-Jalil gave at a conference sponsored by the Muslim Students Association in Tucson, Ariz.

    In remarks to two panels at the conference, Abdul-Jalil alleged that Muslims jailed after the 9/11 attacks were being "tortured" in the Manhattan Correctional Center, that "the greatest terrorists in world occupy the White House" and that Muslims should not allow "Zionists of the media to dictate what Islam is to us."

    House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Rep. Peter King (R-L.I.) and several other New York area politicians called for Abdul-Jalil to be axed.

    "A person with those views should not be allowed to serve in any government agency," King said.
