| Shi'ites declare holy war on Brits |
| 2004-08-05 |
| Militiamen loyal to Shi'ite Muslim radical leader Moqtada al-Sadr have declared holy war against British forces based in Iraq's main southern city of Basra. The declaration came after four of their comrades were arrested. "We will wage jihad and war against the foreign troops, not against police and Iraqi forces," said Sheikh Saad al-Basri, al-Sadr's representative in the largely Shi'ite city. "However, if Iraqi personnel fight on the side of the occupiers, we will strike them harshly." [snippety-snip] Fix bayonets... |

| #1 Does this mean the Home Guard can get involved? I suspect they could resolve the issue before football season starts. |
