I've Been Thinking:
A fatwah is an Islamic edict declared by a leading authority.
Shiite theologian Grand Ayatollah Kazi al Haeri is held in very high regard by Iraqi Shiites. And he has declared a fatwah forbidding US troops to step foot in Iraq.
Grand Ayatollah Kazi al Haeri called on Iraqi forces to attack and stop all US forces.
The edict comes after media from all over the world covered stories that described Israel's attack on Shiite bases in Iraq - bases that are affiliated with Iran. Two Israeli officials confirmed that Israel was responsible for the attacks.
Many locals in the Middle East do not countenance any non-believers anywhere in the Middle East - not in any Arab lands.
The US brings out vicious animus in some people.
Over the years there have been numerous fatwahs involving the United States. This Grand Ayatollah is not alone.
