TIMES UKProfile: Hojatoleslam al-Sadr, radical Shia cleric Al-Sadr claims descent from Islam’s 7th century Prophet Muhammad, a matter of distinction among Muslims. As such, he is referred to as "al-Sayed", or master, by fellow Shia Muslims.
Al-Sadr has not called for armed resistance against US forces, but in his latest sermon delivered last Friday, he said he wanted to be the "striking arm" in Iraq of Hamas, the militant Palestinian group whose suicide bombings have killed hundreds of Israelis.
That's all I need to know.
He's Enemy.
Speaking of Hamas, now that their new leader has called for a war against America, I say it is time to turn Israel loose to decimate them and declare war against Hamas. We don't want to have a repeat of ignoring the declaration of war by AQ. The first Pali supporting suicide bomber in the US will be blamed on GWB even as those who will do the accusing, will condemn whatever we do anyway. Might as well eliminate an enemy if we have to take the heat anyway.
