The FACT of the matter is that you support the present regime of murdering, torturing dictators.

Good find , he's a very important figure in the Iraqi (Saddam) opposition , very well respected and a religious idealist

First we don't believe in a system that is based on sectarian or racial division. I think what the majority of Iraqi factions have come to recognise as the best political course for Iraq is the parliamentarian system on the basis of one man one vote, without applying any sectarian agenda. I also strongly believe that any future government should uphold the religious values of the Iraqi people, which are rooted in Islam. It has to be emphasised that Islam is the official religion of the state and that Shari'a is the main source of legislation. That said, all the rights of the religious minorities will be respected. The cultural sensitivities and religious values of the Iraqi people also have to be taken into account in any future Iraqi government.

then there is a ray of hope...

Ayatollah Ali Mohammed Sistani issued the decree.

They are dancing in the streets of Karbala. The Iraqi Ayatollah Ali Mohammed Sistani issues the first pro-U.S. fatwa in memory, urging believers to "help bring this war against the tyrant to a successful end for the Iraqi people," according to The Wall Street Journal. The people of Iraq (news - web sites) are ratting out their captors. The Iraqi minister of information is learning the limits of the post-modernist critique of truth.

yet it seems a bit "lax"... and a bit "unredeeming" to just council shiites to just try and remain
"sitting on the side lines "
while it is the coalition that topples his enemy Saddam ?

"They will try to remain on the sidelines to suffer the least possible damage, until they are certain that the Iraqi regime's repressive machine has been annihilated," an official from the Supreme Assembly of the Islamic Revolution in Iraq

we must keep up appearances ...
