I think this is what makes this somewhat more newsworthy than past statements by "unofficial" groups.
"MADRID (AFX) - Spain's Islamic Commission, which groups the nation's Muslim community, said it was issuing a fatwa against Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden,
'We are going to issue a fatwa (religious decree) against Bin Laden this afternoon,' Mansour Escudero, who leads the Federation of Islamic religious entities (Feeri) and co-secretary general of the Spanish governmenmt-created Commission told AFP."
Seems to carry a bit more wieght, particularly when coming from a country that is less than supportive of U.S. actions as of late.
