In Iowa,Rick Perry Attacks Ron Paul Over Iran Statements Makes a False Statement On the Term Mullah

“You can’t make nice with the mullahs. They hate us, they hate everything about America. They hate our lifestyle, they hate our faith. They dislike us to the point that they would use a nuclear device first to wipe Israel off the face of the earth and they consider Israel to be the little Satan, they consider us to be the big Satan.”

Rick Perry is wrong on that part it seems to me he doesnt even understand on what group the mullahs are associated with.

Mullah rather then Mullahs is used to refer to Muslim man educated in Islamic theology and there sacred law.
The title is given to some Islamic clergy is derived from the Arabic word ى mawlā
meaning "vicar", "master" and "guardian". In large parts of the Muslim world, particularly Iran, Bosnia, Afghanistan, Turkey, Central Asia, Somalia and South Asia, it is the name commonly given to local Islamic clerics or mosque leaders.

The title has also been used in some Sefardic Jewish communities to refer to the community's leadership, especially religious leadership.
It is primarily understood in the Muslim world as a term of respect for an educated man


Sounds to me Rick Perry is lost yet again
Heres what the term Mullah is

Someone needs to tell Perry, Morocco, a Muslim country, was the very first of any country, Muslim or not, to recognize the US as a sovereign nation after we defeated the brits.

Perry is an old dog, I'm not sure he can learn anything new. He knows what he knows from the WWII and subsequent war propaganda. His knowledge is not really educated, but rather he is an unoriginal piece of repeating faeces.

Your ABC sources says...

“The idea that there is one individual that was on the stage last night who thinks what’s going on in Iran and allowing Iran to have access to a nuclear device–to have a bomb is really not any of our business,” Perry said. ”Dr. Paul is just wrong on this issue."

So first off, Perry was referring directly to Iranian "Mullah", not Mullah in general.

Also to quote your wikipedia source...

In large parts of the Muslim world, particularly Iran, Bosnia, Afghanistan, Turkey, Central Asia, Somalia and South Asia, it is the name commonly given to local Islamic clerics or mosque leaders.

So Perry was talking about Iranian Clerics, not Islamic Mullahs.

Find me ONE Iranian Cleric that openly and publicly supports the USA.

Not that I support Perry for President, just come on use facts to attack the man, not misleading quotes.

old,but found..........Prize???

Mehdi Karrubi, an Iranian cleric who favors resuming relations with the U.S., said he will run in the 2009 presidential elections, becoming the first announced candidate in the race.

Iran Cleric Who Favors U.S. Relations to Run for Presidency

Our modern world of science and mathematics would not exist if not for Islam...

Star for you, Sir. However...

Mehdi Karrubi supports ECONOMIC relations with the US. Guess who else supports ECONOMIC relations, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Money is money and business is business. Muslims and Christians have been doing "business" for a thousand years. Infidel or not, they'll still take your money. Much like we in the US will still take money from "terrorist" organizations.

Perry got the wrong term. But then again .. the current POTUS said there were 57 states and got his own conception wrong by two years .... so saying things that is inaccurate doesn't always discount someone from getting elected.

That being said .. Perry should pack it up and go home.
He has embarrassed himself a whole bunch over and over ...

Well,taking money and working with Terrorists is all the same,right?



Working with terrorists?

Exactly my point, Sir. We all do bad things, but they're OUR bad things so they're not AS bad.

That tool Perry wouldn't even qualify to be Ron Pauls errand boy. He is just George W with better hair. Dumb as a box of rocks.

I know that i am not wrong as for Rick Perry he actually stated you cant be nice with the Mullahs why you think you he didnt say the Iranian Mullahs then? personally that would mean all those Mullahs in the region of south asia and Bosnia and yes even the Jew Mullahs so in my view i think he may offended some of them.



And also can you find one Iranian Cleric that stated he wants to see America or israel wiped off the map? i doubt you can oh dont bother linking or replying with facts from FOX News or the neocons.

Read your own ABC news article... the ENTIRE thing is about IRAN, not Islam.

And also can you find one Iranian Cleric that stated he wants to see America or israel wiped off the map? i doubt you can oh dont bother linking or replying with facts from FOX News or the neocons.

I gave a laundry list of them. Read the pdf I supplied before... I'll link it again for you in case the link was broken or something.

Not only is Rick Perry uneducated. Has very questionable life style. Has proven he only cares about money. Now he wants to embroil the US into WWIII. Isn't hurting and killing little girls enough for him. I can't believe anyone is actually considering th piece of crap for anything much less President.
