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)

Everyone needs to realize, no Arab country likes Israel. They are brought up on hating Israel. So this is understandable. Israel is not going to get an allie out of Iraq any more than out of Turkey.

Once again, Iran pulling strings.

Can they really believe they can succeed by going all out, regional war?

Maybe three weeks ago, but we are wide awake now, if Iran is planning to move, it will be a martyr mission now.
