Need I say more? Apparently Shari'a orders that mice be killed in all instances.
I get the impression that this guy just wants some attention.... but still, Mickey? What's next, America itself?

There is already a Fatwa against the U.S. issued by Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani a few years ago. He wants us wiped off the face of the earth, along with Israel. Good times.
Talmud Sofrim 15:10 R. Shimon ben Yochai taught: Kill [even] the good among the gentiles. Wow, isn't that like mass genocide???
Take anything out of context and you can make a laughing stock of anyone over anything.
In typical Islam-bashing media frenzy, no one actually bothered to actually notice he was LAUGHING when he said this (yes, it was a video clip). He was indeed talking about rodents and their disgusting traits, and that in his opinion, using what in normal human nature is considered to be filthy and undesirable, as a wildly popular protagonist in children's cartoons, is not the most appropriate choice. Then he said jokingly, in fact, since Mickey Mouse basically is a rodent, and rodents should be exterminated, that in fact Mickey should be exterminated.
He LAUGHED while saying it, get it? Doesn't matter whether you like it or not, but presenting this as some kind of scholarly fatwa to search out and behead a cartoon character just reflects the simple-minded blind media stupidity that the average person is ready to consume and regurgitate blindly.
And of course since it is about Islam or Muslims, hey, it's OK--have a field day. Now if it were about Jews...

I hate these Fatwas. Why is he hating on Micky Mouse?
No... really?
Those guys are fatwa-ing everything, all the time. Besides, have you seen the Hamas version of Mickey? Google "Farfur", you will be so disturbed.
They should just declare a fatwa on fatwas.
hahaha maxliving..your comment made absolutely no sense. do you know what a fatwa actually is?
"they should just declare a legal opinion on legal opinions".
thanks for the laugh :)
Wow, sarcasm-meter is lower than I would have thought at Wes.
