Sheikh Tamimi, Benedict XVI A leading Palestinian cleric commandeered an evening devoted to interfaith dialogue with Pope Benedict XVI on Monday to rant against Israel for "killing Gaza‘s children," "bulldozing Palestinian homes" and "destroying mosques." Slideshow: Pope in Israel, Day I In an impromptu speech, delivered in Arabic at the Notre Dame Pontifical Institute in Jerusalem, Sheikh Tayseer Tamimi, chief Islamic judge in the Palestinian Authority, launched a 10-minute tirade against the State of Israel for confiscating Palestinians’ land and carrying out war crimes against the residents of Gaza.
I’m glad the Pope walked out. He is a man of principle. Unlike Obama who sat and listened for hours as Chavez delivered his hate America speech.
It is impossible for a Muslim Cleric to publicly befriend leaders of other faiths. The Koran forbids this at the price to their life unless they are intentionally seducing of the infidel’s heart and mind in order to eventually effect the subjugation of the submissive as they expand Shari ah. Shari ah is . . . The ‘Peace’ of the Religion of Peace.
Those who hear such a declaration and do not comply . . . then any devote Muslim is justified to wage jihad on those who have refused to submit. This is similar to the declaration made by Osama to the United States several months before the towers fell. Again, parts of Koran free the militant from any pang of conscience as they deliver judgment to men, women and children who refused to submit to the call . . .
