Kerry: Terrorist Shiite Al-Sadr 'a Legitimate Voice'

In an interview broadcast Wednesday morning, Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry defended terrorist Shiite imam Muqtada al-Sadr as a "legitimate voice" in Iraq, despite that fact that he's led an uprising that has killed nearly 20 American GIs in the last two days.

Speaking of al-Sadr's newspaper, which was shut down by coalition forces last week after it urged violence against U.S. troops, Kerry complained to National Public Radio, "They shut a newspaper that belongs to a legitimate voice in Iraq."

In the next breath, however, the White House hopeful caught himself and quickly changed direction. "Well, let me ... change the term 'legitimate.' It belongs to a voice — because he has clearly taken on a far more radical tone in recent days and aligned himself with both Hamas and Hezbollah, which is a sort of terrorist alignment."

But Kerry again seemed to voice sympathy for the Shiite terrorist when asked whether he supported al-Sadr's arrest. "Not if it’s an isolated act without the other kinds of steps necessary to change the dynamics on the ground in Iraq," Kerry told NPR, in quotes first reported by the New York Sun.

"If all we do is make war against the Iraqi people and continue an American occupation, fundamentally, without a clarity as to who and how sovereignty is being turned over, we have a very serious problem for the long run here," Kerry added. "And I think this administration is just walking dead center down into that trap."

On March 28, the U.S.-led coalition authorities closed al-Sadr's newspaper, al-Hawza, for 60 days, the Sun reported. L. Paul Bremer, the chief U.S. administrator in Iraq, charged that the newspaper had published false stories blaming the coalition forces for local acts of terrorism.

Yep, he learned well from great statemen and moralists like senators Ted "hic!" Kennedy and Robert "KKK" Byrd.  No one is better at giving aid and comfort to the enemy then these clowns.

Hristo, I would say yes.  He's trying to convince other people to kill those that are giving him freedom.


That turns on the big *TERRORIST* light in my head.

Speaking of Sen. Byrd, where's the outrage now? Sen. Dodd hailed his career no less than did Lott for Thurmond.

Can you say double standard? I can.

They blast Democrats for posting from MoveOn.Org but do ritual dancing around NewsMax posts. Hypocrite? Of course, They are Republicans!

That Shiite imam Muqtada al-Sadr guy is a terrorist now. There is no democracy in Iraq yet, the situation is a war zone because some people refuse lay down their arms and rebuild Iraq. Shiite imam Muqtada al-Sadr is an enemy leader in my opinion. He may have offered to surrender, well then do it.

I heard the interview. He immediately stated that it wasn't legitimate. Jeeez guys. Get something real. I mean Kerry ain't no great shakes, but this is really digging.  

Would you really want to have a "misstatement war" between Kerry and Bush?

Midnight, your a hypocrite. Your own flip flop on the issue of candidates is easily referenced here. Make up your mind as your opinions weigh very lightly with me at the moment.
