BAGHDAD - A prominent Muslim cleric said in a sermon Friday that Iraqis everywhere must threaten U.S. interests and "set them ablaze."
Abdel-Razzaq al-Saadi's sermon at Friday prayers was carried live on Iraqi state television.
"The entire world, Muslims and non-Muslims, is cursing the intentions of the American administration against Iraq which, God willing, will be frustrated," al-Saadi said.
Al-Saadi's title is imam of Umm al-Maarek, or Mother of All Battles Mosque in Baghdad. "Mother of all Battles," was the war cry uttered by Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein before the Gulf War in 1991.
Al-Saadi said in his sermon it is "the obligation for Iraqis and others to threaten U.S. interests everywhere and set them ablaze."
He also urged Americans and the British to rise up against U.S. President George W. Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair.

Al-Saadi's title is imam of Umm al-Maarek, or Mother of All Battles Mosque in Baghdad. "Mother of all Battles," was the war cry uttered by Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein before the Gulf War in 1991.What an unfortunate name. The Mother or all Battles war cry hasn't done too well in the past. This imam must be well payed by the Mother of All Psychopaths.

He also urged Americans and the British to rise up against U.S. President George W. Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
He calls on Iraqis to set American interests ablaze while simultaneously calling for Americans to help them out.
It would be a ludicrous offer, if he didnt find so many takers.

I heard this on FOX. And he said, "God will give us victory over the infidels in this war."
True remarks....only problem for him is we're the "us".

He may just want to check with some Afghanis who seem pretty happy the Taliban is now living caves. Also, there are many Muslims in Kuwait who would like to see this guy preaching on a remote island -- bound and gagged.
