Iraqi Sheik: Keep Brit Females as Slaves
A “senior aide” of Iraqi freakazoid Muqtada al-Sadr has advised the faithful that if any one of them captures a female British soldier, Allah says he can keep her as a slave. (Hat tip: V the K.)
BASRA, Iraq - A senior aide of radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr told worshippers during a Friday sermon in southern Iraq that anyone capturing a female British soldier can keep her as a slave.
The aide, Sheik Abdul-Sattar al-Bahadli, also called on supporters to launch jihad, or holy war, against British troops in this southern city.
He offered money to anyone capturing or killing a member of the Governing Council, the widely unpopular interim administration appointed by the U.S.-led occupation 10 months ago.
Al-Bahadli, al-Sadr’s chief representative in southern Iraq, spoke at al-Hawi mosque in central Basra. …
Al-Bahadli kept an assault rifle next to him as he spoke to an estimated 3,000 worshippers, occasionally lifting it as he screamed “jihad!,” and “Allahu Akbar!,” or “God is greatest!”
He held what he said were documents and photographs of three Iraqi women being raped at British-run prisons in Iraq.
