LIBYA: Popular TV cleric issues fatwa against Kadafi

February 22, 2011 | 4:10 am

Sheik Yusuf Qaradawi, head of the International Union for Muslim Scholars, issued a fatwa on live television (Arabic link) Monday night urging the Libyan army to kill the country’s embattled leader, Moammar Kadafi.

“It is not heroism to fight your people and to hit them with missiles,” Qaradawi said in an interview with Al Jazeera, which also hosts his popular show, “Sharia and Life.”

Libyan security forces waged a fierce attack on demonstrators in the two major cities of Tripoli and Benghazi on Monday, with many reports that the regime had ordered air strikes against protesters.
