UK: 'It's OK to kill non-Muslims': radical cleric

LONDON -- A radical London-based Muslim cleric has been caught on film urging his followers to kill non-Muslims and commit acts of terrorism. Tapes of Sheik Abu Hamza, a cleric affiliated with London's Finsbury Park mosque, telling an audience that non-believers should be killed or sold into slavery have been smuggled onto the Internet. "If a kafir person (non-believer) goes in a Muslim country, he is like a cow. Anybody can take him. That is the Islamic law," Mr. Hamza says on one tape. "If a kafir is walking by and you catch him, he's booty. You can sell him in the market. Most of them are spies. And even if they don't do anything, if Muslims cannot take them and sell them in the market, you just kill them. It's OK."

Rabbi in Hebron Says Annihilation of Non-Jews Acceptable
Saturday, November 16 2002 @ 04:06 PM GMT
OCCUPIED JERUSALEM - A prominent Israeli rabbi with thousands of followers said during a Sabbath homily in the settlement in Kiryat Arba'a Saturday that halacha, or Jewish religious law, "essentially supported the annihilation of non-Jews in Israel."
The rabbi, Rav Leor, said most rabbinic authorities "of the past and the present accepted the opinion that the lives of non-Jews don't' enjoy the same sanctity as the lives of Jews."
"Hashmadat goyem" (the extermination of non-Jews), he said was an established principle in Jewish theology.
The rabbi is affiliated with the messianic Jewish movement known as Gush Emunim which is represented in the Israeli Knesset by seven Knesset members.
The movement is represented in the Israeli government by Minister without portfolio Ed Eifam of the National Religious Party (NRP).
In 1994, Rav Leor supported the mass murder of scores of Arab worshipers by a fellow Jewish settler, Baruch Goldstein, an American Jewish immigrant from New York.
He referred to Goldstein as "a great rabbi and saint."

What the New Nation News left out is that nonbelievers means those other than Jews Christians and Moslems. Now if I was a pagan I would worry. ;)
