Saudi Cleric: Flog Journalists Who Insult Clerics

Only in Saudi…

Saudi sheikh Abdallah bin Jibreen, a former member of the Saudi Fatwa Council, has stated that journalists who insult clerics in their articles and on television programs should be fired and punished by flogging.

Maybe if the clerics were not actively recruiting Saudi teens to go to Iraq and blow themselves up, and preaching that the West is the great satan, the Saudi’s with their heads NOT up their asses would feel less inclined to insult them…

    Is it yet another fatwa? All those poor clerics, being insulted by the big bad journalists. I guess that when you become a cleric, you become SO important that no one can make you feel unimportant, and you certainly can’t have a sense of humor. It must be on the job application. DO NOT EVER, EVER laugh at yourself. And learn how to issue lots and lots of fatwas.

    I think it’s a good idea to have a fatwa council.  We oughta have an American one and put out fatwas on people like amadinanazi, nazirallah, talibanazis, alqaidanazis, and any mullhanazis that piss us off and just open season on them like they do on everybody else.  That might help to reshape their thinking a bit.  Would really like to see us totally independent of foreign energy sources, then we could put out fatwas on some saudi pukes that need killing.  That would be real nice.

    Tonto…give yourself a clerical name, we’ll declare you his Grand High Poobahness, and you can start issuing fatwas. I’ll help with some. So will jenny I’m sure, and lots of others. Anyone got any good ones?
