Detroit Imam Mohammad Ali Elahi pressed GBN America correspondent Steven Edginton on whether he was from an "Islamophobic" organisation after being confronted about his controversial connections.
In conversation with GBN America, Steven highlighted Elahi's affiliation with "three of the past Iranian presidents for the last 37 years".
Elahi hit out at Steven following the interview. While his microphone was being removed, he said: "Steve, you look like you have a mission here today, right? I hope you are not from one of those Islamophobia organisations."
Elahi also revealed he is in support of former Iranian President Hassan Rouhani.
Steven interjected, noting: "That's who I'm talking about. He's the same man who's been funding billions of dollars to Hezbollah."
When asked if he agreed it was true that Rouhani was funding Hezbollah, Elahi dismissed the claim, responding: "He is a president, he's been president.
"I mean, the Hezbollah and Iran, that is something that is not this president or that president."
He added: "Now you are talking about Hezbollah, then we are talking about Israel. Hezbollah never attacked Israel and occupied the Israelis."
