| Mullah Fudlallah sez Muslims can't assist U.S. against Iraq... |
| 2002-08-12 |
| A senior Lebanese Shiite Muslim cleric issued a fatwa Monday banning Muslims from helping the United States and its allies in any military strike on Iraq. In his religious edict, Grand Ayatollah Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah also reminded Muslims throughout the world that God prohibits assisting "infidels" against Muslims. Mullah Fudlallah is the founder and spiritual advisor to Hezbollah, among his other duties. Guess he's a nice, unbiased source... Fatwas are followed by conservative Muslims and sanction or prohibit acts according to Islamic sharia law. "It is not permissible to assist America and its allies in striking the Iraqi people or enabling it (America) to control their economic resources, natural wealth and general policy," Fadlallah said. "But it is permissible to kill as many Jews as you want. That's okay." |
