Report: Australian Muslim leader condones jihad
By ASSOCIATED PRESS
SYDNEY, Australia
Reports that the spiritual leader of Australia's Islamic community called for
holy war against the West and condoned suicide bomb attacks during a trip
overseas raised alarm Thursday among lawmakers back home.
The lawmakers said they would look into the reports from media outlets and a
Middle East think tank about comments that Sheik Taj El Din Al Hilaly, 62,
made during his trip this month to Lebanon, and examine the context of his
comments.
Hilaly told interviewers in Lebanon that he was proud of Islamic resistance
movements in the Palestinian territories, Lebanon and the disputed region of
Kashmir, and condoned "martyrdom operations" - which typically refers to
suicide bombings.
"We support the resistance and support, with all our might, the martyrdom
operations carried out by the Palestinian liberation movements, operations
that are a legitimate act against the cruel occupation, according to all
international norms and conventions," Hilaly was reported to have said.
Speaking in Australia's parliament Thursday, Prime Minister John Howard said
that if his remarks were correctly attributed then Hilaly deserved "to be
condemned in the strongest possible terms."
"He has behaved with incredible insensitivity to the feelings of many
Australians," in visiting a militant leader in Lebanon, Howard said.
Opposition Labor party lawmaker Sen. Michael Forshaw said Thursday the quotes
were troubling.
"We don't need that in this country at all," Forshaw said. "Any calls like
that would be very, very serious and very damaging to the nature of our
society. If that's happened, then I deplore it."
A spokesman for the Muslim leader said his comments had been taken out of
context.
"He is saying: let's not condemn them because these people are making a major
sacrifice to protect their country," said Keysar Trad, from the Lebanese
Muslim Association. "He has condemned the killing of civilians on both
sides."
During his trip to Lebanon, Hilaly also met with the leader of the militant
Hezbollah group, Sheik Hassan Nasrallah, and gave a sermon Feb. 13 at the Al
Quds mosque in Sidon, Lebanon, calling for jihad, or holy war, against the
United States and Israel, an internet dispatch by the Middle East Media
Research Institute reported.
Australia's Channel 7 television said that Hilaly also blessed the bones of
suicide bombers during his trip, but Trad dismissed that report as a
misrepresentation.
"They were referring to the bones of the prisoners returned from Israel in
the recent exchange, and he didn't actually bless the bones, he blessed the
process that freed them" Trad told The Associated Press.
-Natasha Stott Despoja, the foreign affairs spokeswoman of the Australian
Democrats, a minor party, said she was looking into the claims.
"They're very serious claims and obviously everyone's very concerned to hear
about them," she said. "If those claims are true they're of grave concern.
But I'd like to see more information."
