Anybody hear the Juan Cole(?) interview yesterday on NPR ? |
|
He was talking about the 12th Imam that is similar to Jesus in the belief of some Islamists, in that he will return to bring justice to the world, and that some Iraqis think Al-Sadr is the return of this Imam. He mentioned how ignorant the Bush regime was about the history of Iraq and their religion. He also said that Sistani was born in Iran about 1930 and he compared Al-Sadr with the late Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran... Very informative.
