Qadhafi: 'Bush Should be Allowed to Pray in Mecca'
Egypt Election ^ | April 13, 2006

Posted on 04/15/2006 7:13:22 PM PDT by rightwingintelligentsia

Libyan leader Muammar Qadhafi called for allowing Christians and Jews to perform pilgrimage to Mecca, Islam's holiest place.

Speaking following prayers with the presidents of Mali, Sierra Leone, Niger, Mauritania and Senegal on the occasion of the Prophet Mohammed's birthday in Timbuktu, Mali, late on Monday, Qadhafi said "Mecca should be a meeting point to all people except heretics and impure".

He said that Christians and Jews are not heretics or impure and "believe in God" and should be allowed to go to pilgrimage in Mecca.

Qadhafi challenged Muslim religious leaders to allow US President George W. Bush to enter the main mosque in Mecca and pray there, while considering him impure or a heretic.

It should be very interesting to see the reaction to his words from the islamokazis.

As strange as he is, he sounds more moderate than most. It almost sounds like what Islam purports itself to be.

I guess F-111s screaming over and making your life hell, along with how fast Baghdad fell can have moderating effect on your world view

Why would any Christian want to go to Mecca? Khadaffi's heart is probably in the right place, but he needs to get out more.

I don't know if I'd actually go so far as to call him moderate. Read further down in the article:

Qadhafi also called for reviewing the Bible, which he considers to be "false and phony".

Qadafi was never an Islamist fundamentalist.

"'Bush Should be Allowed to Pray in Mecca'"

A) Why would he want to?

B) Wouldn't THAT be a convenient way for the religion of peace to "accidentally" dispose of a hated representative of America? SS would be complete fools to allow it.

True-he uses the trappings of the Muslim and the Bedouin to enhance his image.

As I said in another post-He's Nuckin Futs

"He said that Christians and Jews are not heretics or impure and "believe in God"

Sentiments like that put him in the forefront of Islamic reformers. Not that he seems to have much competition.
