Mullah Fudlullah urges Iraqis not to submit to âoccupationâ
Senior Shiite cleric Sayyed Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah welcomed Friday the collapse of the Iraqi regime but urged the Iraqis to form a democratic government free of US control. "We've found Syrian control works ever so much better..." Iraqi people âcelebrated the end of a nightmare witnessed by them and the whole Arab and Muslim nation, refusing to replace one nightmare with another and a tyrant with foreign occupation,â he said during a sermon at the Hasanein Mosque in Haret Hreik, Beirut. Not that any Arab or Muslim nation lifted a finger to replace the first nightmare. And lifting a finger to replace the second nightmare will have worse consequences... The Iraqis should unite and create a âunified Iraq, open to the whole people with charity and fairness,â he said. âI urge you to preserve the security and wealth of people around you and I urge you to plan for the future, to be rational, to show the world that the civilized Iraqi people will not fall before the chaos that the occupation could exploit.â Maybe he should just just it a little bit of time and see what happens now that the civilized Iraqi people have been stopped from attaching auto batteries to each other's genitalia... Although Fadlallah condemned the US-led war that left many civilians dead, he praised the fall of the regime âthat had regressed historyâ with its tyrannic methods. "Damn them Merkins for doing something good... I'm so confused. I think I'll go lie down..." He also called on the Arabs to close ranks and put conflicts aside to face the delicate situation that could âshake our political, security, economic and cultural realityâ in light of American threats. âLetâs end many marginal disagreements and various types of fanaticism. US President George W. Bush said before this war that he would spread death and terror throughout the Earth to protect his nation with preventive wars submitted by the Jews, who dominated the US administration and the president himself,â Fadlallah said. Oh, he did not. Mullah Fudlullah'd better watch it. His pants are going to catch fire. He said US warnings to Syria, Iran and North Korea were based on an âillusion,â and he accused the United States of acting âas if it had tutelage over the whole world.â Only the most ignorant backwaters... US officials have warned Damascus against supplying Iraq with weapons and called on Syria to halt its pursuit of weapons of massive destruction and its support for âterrorism.â Like "Islamic Jihad," which is headquartered in "Damascus." And "Hezbollah," which is headquartered in "Lebanon." Get the picture? Fadlallah also warned the Iraqis not to be deceived by âattractive slogans.â "Don't believe those infidels! They'll lie to you!" âThey should be aware of the future, during which the occupation might impose a new tyrannic regime on them, camouflaged under a democratic cover,â he said. "Just because you've got elections and representation and personal liberty and you're secure in your home doesn't mean you're really free. Real freedom comes only with rule by holy men, pious men with turbans, and automatic weapons..." Posted by: Fred Pruitt 2003-04-12 |
