Saudi Scholars Urge Iraqis to Back Militants
Fox News ^ | 11/06/04 | unknown

Selected excerpts.

In their letter, the scholars stressed that armed attacks by militant Iraqi groups on U.S. troops and their allies in Iraq represent "legitimate" resistance.

The clerics issued a fatwa, or religious edict, prohibiting Iraqis from offering any support for military operations carried out by U.S. forces against insurgent strongholds.

"Fighting the occupiers is a duty for all those who are able," the letter said. "It is a jihad to push back the assailants. Resistance is a legitimate right. A Muslim must not inflict harm on any resistance man or inform on them. Instead, they should be supported and protected."

So the total domination of a Country by a murderous Dictator is ok for Iraqi's but to fight for their own freedom is wrong.

Any one who would follow these maniacs advice should be the first to meet their maker!

Do I hear Road Rage?

For anyone who may doubt that we are about to succeed in Fallujah, read the Saudi clerics' anger and see the truth. Their precious "Jihad" is going down in flames.

They are afraid of Iraq becoming a democracy. It would be an example for their own people. They want to keep the power, the money, and the control. That is all that Islam is based on (control). An uneducated people is a controllable people.

Not really a rant, you just stated the obvious facts.

Now if Muslims the world over could see the truth!

This is merely a logical extension of their beliefs based on what it says in the Quran and Haddiths. A true believer of this stuff has to conclude that the Saudi cleric's interpretation is what the illiterate pirate Muhammad would have ordered.

I believe the US government should demand the Saudi government arrest these clerics, for inciting violence.

How can Saudi be an ally of ours against terror, if they won't do such?

Islam rises and falls on Muhammad. He is the religion's sole prophet, Islam’s solitary example, Allah’s lone conduit. Without Muhammad, Allah, the Qur’an, and Islam would be unknown.

So all you have to be is somebody that says I have spoken to Muhammad and this is what he said we should do.

Muslims wake up there is nobody that has talked to or heard Muhammad in over 1400 years.
