A Lebanese-based radical cleric notorious for his fiery sermons and support for jihad soon will deliver a fatwa regarding “U.S. intervention in Muslim lands,” according to a controversial Islamist group that says it plans to hold a pro-shari’a demonstration at the White House on Thursday.
A Web site promoting Thursday’s so-called “Shariah4America” rally says the fatwa – an Islamic religious injunction – will be delivered by Omar Bakri Mohammed.
“With the unwarranted interference of America in the Middle East, and having been left with no other alternative, the impending fatwa will clarify the reality of the crusade against Islam and Muslims as well as the appropriate response to a very bitter foreign policy,” it says.
The site describes Bakri as “one of the leading scholars of the Islamic world.” In fact, the Syrian-born fundamentalist cleric is better known in Britain, where he lived from 1986 to 2005, as a radicalizer of young Muslims and an apologist for terrorists.
He called openly for jihad against America, Israel and Britain, admitting to signing up recruits to fight in places like Kashmir and Israel, and to sending young men for jihad training in the U.S.
Say what you want about these crazed barbarians, but at least they are committed to their cause, and they aren’t afraid to identify their enemies.
Our President and his feckless, disorganized Administration, on the other hand, seems unwilling to identify a radical Islamist war against the US as just that — and will only identify enemies by name if they happen to be Americans who aren’t too keen on soaring debt and government takeovers of private industry.
Up is down. Black is white. Cornbread is Earl. And me.
We could have a shooting war in the streets with these zealots of the “religion of peace” and the president would send out troops to defend them.
Ashley is Mary Kate.
See, yelling “My god is great and he wants me to kill you!!!” is way too obvious, and in it’s obviousity, it cannot possibly be the reason.
Now, a bunch of white people with just a few, maybe 5-6% people of color, not yelling racist epithets, is the kind of nuance that points to their unobvious and therefore undeniable subterranean racism.
We need this guy to issue a fatwa against abortion, just to see what happens when cognitive dissonance takes over.
He won’t do that, Squid; the more infidels that kill their offspring the better for Islam.
@3: Apparently, though, it’s impossible to tell the difference between teabaggers, Islamofascists, and drugged-up crazies.
If you’re a leftard, anyway.
Is he still collecting on that UK housing boondoggle he had running?
And: why, oh why, can’t somebody manage to shoot this useless fuck?
Please don’t say that. Wishing for a shooting crosses the line.
