Bush establishes Islamic state with $300B USD & 1500 soldiers lives
Edited on Sun Feb-06-05 01:23 PM by Bluebear


NAJAF, Iraq - With religious Shiite parties poised to take power in the new constitutional assembly, leading Shiite clerics are pushing for Islam to be recognized as the guiding principle of the new constitution.

Exactly how Islamic to make the document is the subject of debate.

At the very least, the clerics say, the constitution should ensure that legal measures overseeing personal matters like marriage, divorce and family inheritance fall under Shariah, or Koranic law. For example, daughters would receive half the inheritances of sons under that law.

On other issues, opinion varies, with the more conservative leaders insisting that Shariah be the foundation for all legislation.

Gee, what if Clinton had "nation built" an Islamic theocracy the same way with our dollars and our sons and daughter's lives? Do you think the Republicans would be gleefully waving purple fingers around?

but if they dont follow the program, allowing privitization and control of the oil and other infrastructure and allowing iraq to be a haven for us military bases with all of this under the strong arm of the largest and dirtiest cia interest section in the world, well then, he will have to crush them again.
