BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) -- Prominent Saudi religious scholars urged Iraqis to support militants waging holy war against the U.S.-led coalition forces as American troops prepared Saturday for a major assault on the insurgent hotbed of Fallujah.

The 26 Saudi scholars and preachers said in an open letter to the Iraqi people that their appeal was prompted by "the extraordinary situation through which the Iraqis are passing which calls for unity and exchange of views." The letter was posted on the Internet.

Holy Qur'an [9.28] O you who believe! the idolaters are nothing but unclean, so they shall not approach the Sacred Mosque after this year; and if you fear poverty then Allah will enrich you out of His grace if He please; surely Allah is Knowing Wise...[9:30] ...the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away!

President Bush will be remembered best for:

He defined the enemy and they accepted the definition.

In the town of Vinegaroon!

There's a classic Hollywood film with Gary Cooper about Roy Bean and Lily Langtry called "The Westerner," directed by the great William Wyler. It was the only western he every directed.

Highly recommended.

The Saudi government is already complicit. In Radical Saudi Clerics Openly Call for Jihad in Iraq, there's information about an informal pact between the Saudi head of internal security Nayef Bin Abdel Aziz and members of the Movement for Islamic Resurgence, a Saudi front organization for al-Qaeda. In exchange for a promise from the radical clerics to refrain from anti-American acts or rhetoric, the regime agreed to tolerate their presence.

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.

Saudi needs to take an up close look at Iraq and realize as Libya did.....this show will come to your town next. We should really wish the House of Saud could be resolved. If they fall, AQ will be there in full force like gravy on rice (as Blather would say) by the next morning. Bin Laden is looking for a country to call his...preferably an oil rich country and if we let Iraq go as the lefties want.....you connect the dots. As dispicable as the Saudi rulers are, we have to hope they stand for now.....until we can get around to them.

You know you got to stop them at the beginning,like they should have stopped Hitler at Munich, They should never've let him get away with that. They were just asking for big trouble.

If they are not with us, they are against us. I thought Special Forces were supposed to "target" these terrorists!

I like that approach. I'll bring the popcorn.

The reason for these 21 gonads' press release is that their pro-terrorist actions and those of other imams, mullahs, and shiite-heads were just condemned by a large body of clerics. :')

They are no different then the leftists right here in the US. Just like the leftists here the Muslim fanatics will be most dangerous when they see their power decreasing.

Some will follow and die but must Iraqi's will ignore this call.

Most Iraqi's know who their friends are and who are the friends of the terrorists.

That's why it is so important for us to have complete victory in Iraq.
