The father of the radical Islamic terrorist who murdered 50 people at an Orlando gay bar has posted a video on Facebook claiming ignorance for his son’s motives, arguing that God will punish gays, according to CBS News.

In a video posted early Monday, CBS reports, Seddique Mir Mateen — the father of Orlando terrorist Omar Mateen — expresses sadness for the shooting during Ramadan and says that he was “not aware what motivated [his son] to go into a gay club and kill 50 people.”

Seddique Mateen further notes that “God will punish those involved in homosexuality,” adding it is “not an issue that humans should deal with.”

According to CBS’ report, Seddique Mateen also hosts a program on a satellite Afghan TV show called the “Durand Jirga Show,” largely view by Pashtun Afghans in the U.S. and Europe.

A senior Afghan intelligence source told CBS that Mateen’s show has an anti-American and pro-Taliban slant.

The Taliban Islamic extremist movement is comprised almost entirely of Pashtuns, and Mateen’s show takes a decidedly Pashtun nationalistic, pro-Taliban slant; full of anti-U.S. rhetoric and inflammatory language aimed at non-Pashtuns and at Pakistan, the source told Logan.

The elder Seddique’s Monday video is one of many in which he does not speak English and dons military garb.
