Iraq's top Shiite cleric demands immediate cease-fire in Lebanon

Iraq's top Shiite cleric Sunday demanded an immediate cease-fire in Lebanon, warning the

Muslim world will "not forgive" nations that stand in the way of a stop to the fighting.

Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani issued the call following the Israeli airstrike that killed at least 56 Lebanese,

mostly women and children, in the village of Qana. It was the deadliest attack in nearly three weeks of fighting. "Islamic nations will not forgive the entities that hinder a cease-fire," Al-Sistani said, in a clear

reference to the United States. (AP)

I thought Sistani demanded? See how they run.
