Does this look familiar to anyone else but me??
I seem to recall another Ayatollah returning from exile in Paris a few years back.
Old habits die hard with the hard core muslims it would seem.
Here's the best part........
Al-Hakim, 64, later addressed thousands of supporters at a stadium in Basra, where he called for Iraq to be governed by the Iraqi people under Islamic law.

Islamic law eh. Isn't that where they chop of hands, stone people force women to be slaves, etc, etc.
Saddam was a prick, no doubt about that, but the one thing he was was secular and he did not tolerate any muslim fundamentalist BS.
If the US was smart they would load this guy on a plane right back to where he came from NOW.
Religion and politics DON'T mix and fundamentalist anything makes me sick.
