Quote of the day

The sudden assertion of human criteria within a dehumanising framework of political manipulation can be like a flash of lightning illuminating a dark landscape

One of Saudi Arabia's leading Wahhabi sheiks, Abdullah bin Jabreen has issued a strongly worded religious edict, or fatwa, declaring it unlawful to support, join or pray for Shia Hezbollah. The article says, Wahhabis support the ethnic fighting between Sunnis and Shiites in Iraq, and are opposed to Hezbollah in its stand against Israel's forces. http://www.nysun.com/article/36373?page_no=1 PS: I wonder what is Wahhabis stand on Israel?

I wouldn't wonder on that if I were you. Its standing on 'infidels' and Christians is disgraceful enough. Half the trouble in the Islamic world is due to that bigoted and hate filled version of Islam.
