Iraq-Jordan
Sadr. Dies. Now.
2004-04-03
EFL for lunacy:
An influential Shiite cleric in Najaf, Iraq, announced his support Friday for two of Israel’s biggest enemies -- the Palestinian militant group Hamas and Lebanon-based Hezbollah. "They can consider me their striking hand in Iraq whenever there is a necessity and whenever there is a need," Moqtada al-Sadr said in a sermon at Al Kufa mosque. Only to make possibly THE most asinine comment of the year:
Al-Sadr said that even though Yassin "has killed a large number of people this does not justify the way he was brutally murdered."
And then completely lose touch with reality:
Al-Sadr also referred to the U.N. Security Council’s failure to issue a resolution condemning the attack, saying, "this proves that all it is, is a tool in the hands of America."
