Catmeat Sheikh: Sure, I Gave Money to Hizballah

The Mufti of Australia, Sheik Taj al-Din al-Hilali, has actually admitted to the London based Arabic newspaper Al Sharq Al Awsat that while on a recent trip to Lebanon, he gave money to the terrorist group Hizballah.

But hey! What’s the big deal? It was only 50 grand! They couldn’t even buy a quarter of a missile with that!

In response to criticism about funds he contributed to Hizbullah, Sheikh Taj al-Hilali, the controversial mufti of Australia and New Zealand, said that the amount he had carried with him to Lebanon did not exceed $50,000. This sum, he said, would not buy “a quarter of a missile owned by Hizbullah.”

Interesting that a religious leader seems to know the price of a Hizballah missile.
