British Muslim says troops are fair target


The British Sunday Times reports "ONE of Britain’s most prominent Islamic leaders has declared that British troops are a legitimate target for Iraqi militants."

Like most main stream media, The Times prefers "militants" to the more accurate terrorists.

Dr Ahmad al-Rawi, an Iraqi-born British passport-holder who has lived in this country for three decades, is one of 93 Islamic international scholars who signed a “bayyan” (declaration) in August supporting uprisings against the “filth of occupation” by both Iraqis and Palestinians. The signatories included five Hamas leaders.

Looks like Hamza the Hook should get a new cellmate.
