#1 The sheik said he had wanted to avoid the raid and secure Mr Wood's release in a more "civilised and peaceful" way than had occurred.

... and maybe even get a cut of the ransom? Y'know, for "expenses"?

#2 Forgot to tell you, earlier our great big Muff said Wood had a 20% chance of survival when he was kidnapped followed by a 70% chance as soon as the Great One Sheik Hilaly set foot in Iraq followed by a 100% chance of release... if only those pesky infidels didn't foil it by rescuing him.. allah allah...

#3 Hilaly did nothing to free to Mr. Wood. Hilaly should be put down like the rabid dog he is.

Sounds like a snake oil salesman to me.

#5 The sheik said he had wanted to avoid the raid and secure Mr Wood's release in a more "civilised and peaceful" way than had occurred. As opposed as to how he was caputured and kept. Bet he had a bible given to him. And Australian food.

#6 Hilaly was outed by LGF in a Feb 2004 posting for a rant that a muzzein will be calling from the White House, praising the 9/11 terrorists, etc.

#7 A Muslim cleric tells us how to run the war on Muslim clerics.

#8 When is someone in authority going to call open season on Muslim "clerics" who interfere in international diplomacy? I'd appreciate an open season, limited to 430 years, bag limit per person per day at 3, possession limit 0, $5 license fee refunded upon delivery of the first body. Allow any means at all to bag a "cleric", as long as no one else is hurt (unless it's another "cleric"). Large-caliber weapons, bombs above 500 pounds of semtex, and unconventional weapons require prior approval. Hunter is allowed to keep any turbans captured, as long as there is less than 2 pounds of organic material attached.

#9 Wow, OP -- I see they've pushed you too far. How about a $100 per cleric tax rebate too?

#10 I'm starting to feel a little sorry for our Muff.

He has in the past tried to clamp down on the really extreme Wahhabist saudi-faction, even taking jihadi literature dumped on his mosque to the tip.

I think he really DID try to free Douglas Wood and this humiliation is extremely damaging to him given the whole honour-shame thing.

Perhaps when he first heard Wood was free he really believed he was released (after all the Jihadis repeatedly told him they would release him).

And also, perhaps, Douglas Wood was kept alive due to the Mufti - after all, they could have killed him easily enough.

So really, we should thank the Mufti for doing something, even if he didn't free Wood.

I feel really bad now that I ripped into the Mufti so much.
