Abdel Salam Kubaisi, a spokesman for the Muslim Scholars Assn., a hard-line Sunni Arab clerical organization sympathetic to insurgents, called the practice un-Islamic. "Our religion does not permit us to hurt animals," he said, "neither by using them as explosive devices nor in any other manner."

More Islamic confusion.

You can bet that if the occasion had arisen in Mohammed's lifetime that he'd have benefited from harming animals Allah would have condoned it through a stamp-of-approval "revelation".

Just one of their many kitchen tip & tricks.

"How can they use these lovely pets for criminal and murderous acts?" asked Rasha Khairir, 25, an employee of a Baghdad stock brokerage. "A poor dog can't refuse what they are doing with him because he can't think and decide."

Because they are running out of 'glorious' suicide bomber boys between 15-25.
