Saudi Scholars Say Resistance in Iraq Is Jihad

Arab News ^ | 7 November 2004 | Raid Qusti

[Trippin]

And killing those who resist is "Justice".

Bring 'em on you assholes.

[Binghamton_native]

They fear what might happen if Iraqis get a taste of freedom.

[bayourod]

You are either with us or you are with the terrorists.

The House of Saud either delivers these 21 terrorists to us or there should be a regime change in Saudi Arabia.

[the_Watchman]

Sounds like 21 targets to me!

[Binghamton_native]

Amen!

[ElisabethInCincy]

I have asked many muslims .. "Where was the jihad against saddam to free your brothers and sisters from his torture" Ya know i never got an answer !!!

[mlocher]

Twenty-one prominent Saudi religious scholars have signed an open statement to the Iraqi people legitimizing their resistance and forbidding any cooperation or dealings with the occupied American forces.

i think we have a new deck of cards with twenty one people in it.

USMC will flatten falluja.

Like a gym floor. It's time to play hard ball.

The scholars also said that resistance was legitimate and it is not allowed for any Muslim to harm a resisting person or to tell the enemy of their locations. But, in contrary, they should stand beside them and protect them. They also issued a fatwa — a religious edict — saying it was sinful in Islam to assist or support any military operations by the occupying forces and that anyone who does so would be “cooperating in evil and enmity”

Okay, that clears that up. Now what side are the Saudi princes going to take?

[Juan Medén]

Alright!! Time to kick some serious Arab butt!!!!!!

[CaptRon]

Spec Ops. That is all.

[Marine_Uncle]

OK,
So lets see what the Saudi Family will use as an execuse this time around. After all they have made world wide public announcements to the effect that they will join us in the war on terroism. Here is a clear cut case they can work on. Of course I will not hold my breath!
I bet if GWB and the republican controlled congress could get a bill signed to allow our oil companies to start drilling in the Alaska wilderness, the Royal family would jump real frigen quick and start having these imans etc., mysteriously disapear.

[the_daug]

I always thought we attacked the wrong nation......

[arjay]

I hope they get all of their "Muslim brethren" to congregate in Fallujah to resist the nasty Americans. That just gives us a great opportunity to wipe them out in one spot.

Unfortunately, I believe this will be a very long and perhaps never ending battle.

[injin]

may their beards be cut off
then use them to troll for sharks in the Red Sea...

[Ginifer]

These guys are not "scholars", but people who have no value for any human life, except their own. They are trying to incite hatred for others so they don't have to face up to reality that their days are numbered. Once you taste freedom there is no looking back. I say we issue a "Fatwa" and send it on the back of a MOAB.

Actually they are corrent....
The problem is not with terrorists and insurgents its the Quran.. and Islam specifically.. Domesticated(moderate) muslims are simply BAD muslims..

A non murderous muslim is not following the Quran or Mohamaad.. Sorry President Bush but your about as sharp as a bowling ball, boy..

Their religious leaders will determine how many of their people they want to lose before they have a reformation.
