The Rev. Franklin Graham kept up his warnings about Muslim influence on the White House in a recent interview with a Christian media company, saying that “radical Islamists” are “advising various levels of government.”

The son of evangelist Rev. Billy Graham made the statements in a video interview, which was dated Monday but appeared to have been posted online this weekend, with Christian Broadcasting Network chief executive Gordon Robertson on “The 700 Club Interactive.”

“There are Muslims that have access to him in the White House; our foreign policy has a lot of influence now from Muslims,” Graham said. “We see the prime minister of Israel being snubbed by the President and by the White House and by the Democrats, and it’s because of the influence of Islam.”

“They hate Israel and they hate Christians, and so the storm is coming,” Graham added.

The comments were similar to those Graham recently made during an interview with Fox News in which he warned viewers that Washington had been “infiltrated by Muslims.”

During the “700 Club” interview, Graham also criticized former President George W. Bush.

“The Bush Administration began to allow Muslims to come into various governmental agencies to advise us how to respond to Muslims, how to respond to Islam after 9/11,” Graham said. “And what’s happened is that you now have radical Islamists that are advising various levels of government.”
