"the shari'a does not forbid the use of nuclear weapons."

Why issue such a decree if your nuclear program is only implemented for peaceful and power producing reasons.....?

These guys make up the rules as they go along.

A Fatwa seems to me to be nothing more than a license to do whatever they want whenever they want it.

hmmm, now that you mention it, I can't find " thou shalt not use thy nuclear deterrents against towel-headed hate mongers" any where in my bible, either.

There'll be no problem getting those nukes into our ports with muslims in charge of our strategic ports. Oh yea, they already bought the rights while most slept. Just not me. Here I am in your face.

The beauty of it all is that the UN can't prohibit our use of nuclear weapons against Iran.

Great. No hard feelings, then, if we dump about 100 megatons on the ragheads.

Good. Does that mean that we can nuke this Islamic scum?

On February 16, 2006, the reformist Internet daily Rooz (www.roozonline.com) reported for the first time that extremist clerics from Qom had issued what the daily called "a new fatwa," which states that "the shari'a does not forbid the use of nuclear weapons."

Okey-dokey, then. Thanks for giving us the "weapons free" signal...

Well, at least they won't be rioting in the streets if they get nuked, then.

That's just the problem with Islam - it purports to be a government of law but in fact it is a government of men, with all the resulting flaws of arbitrariness and expediency. Where the basis of law is fairly specific (say, for example, the 2nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution) you still have enough wiggle-room for those determined to interpret it in other ways to do so. Where the body of law is mystical, allusive, and nebulous the interpretations can and are whatever its keepers feel like ruling at the moment. Where that regards foods one may eat during ceremonies it's harmless enough; where it regards nuclear weapons it isn't.

The problem with this death cult is that they can change the language anytime they get a bug up their ass.

Perhaps it's time to think about turning Iran into a glass-paved parking lot that glows in the dark.
