Too Easy
MEMRI's doing the decoding of odious Islamism so you don't have to:
In light of the criticism recently leveled against Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawi, the Doha Youth Center held a solidarity conference on February 17, 2005... Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawi noted that... "I hope my life will end with a virtuous death, like [the death] sought by warriors fighting Jihad for the sake of Allah... I am not afraid of the Mossad or the Americans." He also said: "The Mossad has threatened to eliminate me, and I hope that Allah will grant me martyrdom [ shahada ] for His sake and that my life will end by my dying at the hands of the enemies of Islam."
How much of the Mossad's time do you think is really spent planning complex assassination plots of lunatic mullahs in countries other than Iran? It can't really be that much. But even the hollowest nut still wants to be cracked - literally, I suppose. And if the Mossad was to want to come after him, surely his powerful patrons would protect him:
London Mayor Ken Livingstone appeared [in a film played at the conference]... Livingstone noted that after special committees had studied Al-Qaradhawi's ideology by reviewing over 140 books, as well as sermons and lectures by Al-Qaradhawi, it was found that "Sheikh Al-Qaradhawi's ideology is utterly remote from extremism."
Utterly remote.
