King Charles ‘might be a Muslim’, says former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani
Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City and a former legal counsel to U.S. President Donald Trump, recently suggested that the current king of England could be a Muslim. He also claimed that Muslims seek to dominate Britain, labeling the Quran as a “cult of death.”
“I have people from England telling me you’re gonna be a Muslim country in 10 years,” Giuliani remarked during an interview with British journalist Piers Morgan on his YouTube show.
Giuliani framed his comments as part of a broader argument supporting the U.S.-Israeli campaign against Iran. He asserted that the Roman Catholic Church has surpassed the Anglican Church in England and that Charles III might one day become the Muslim monarch of the nation.
The idea that the king is secretly Muslim has circulated online as a common conspiracy theory. Charles, who leads the Church of England, is well-known for his admiration of Islam. In fact, he studied Arabic to better understand the Quran.
“The guiding principle and spirit of Islamic law, taken straight from the Quran, should be those of equity and compassion,” Charles stated in a 1993 speech as the Prince of Wales.
Giuliani contrasted his views with the King’s, arguing that Britain’s Muslim communities are on the verge of taking control. He claimed that Iran fuels this movement, suggesting removing the Islamic Republic of Iran would shift the balance.
“Muslims in Britain are taking over and they wanna take over, and it’s their aim. And Iran is the fuel behind that,” Giuliani said.
While Giuliani portrayed Muslims as a threat, the King described them as an “asset to Britain,” emphasizing their contributions to the nation’s cultural fabric. Charles also highlighted the shared values among Islam, Judaism, and Christianity, noting their historical interconnectedness.
Giuliani dismissed the idea of sharia law having legal authority in the UK. He argued that it dominates in many regions, despite lacking formal enforcement powers. There are currently 85 sharia councils across England, which operate as independent bodies.
“Sharia law is a cult of death. And the Quran is a cult of death,” Giuliani declared.
The King, however, defended Islamic principles, advocating for their equitable application. His support for Traditionalism, a 20th-century philosophical movement, underscores his belief in the universal truths of ancient religions.
Though the King’s stance on the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran remains unclear, he has been reported to privately oppose the 2003 invasion of Iraq. This highlights a divergence in perspectives between Giuliani’s skepticism and the King’s nuanced approach to global religious dynamics.
