Controversial Muslim cleric calls for Friday to be an "international day of anger"

Friday is Jumu'ah among Muslims, the most important day for prayers in the Islamic faith.

On Friday February 3, according to London's Telegraph , controversial Sheikh Yussef al-Qaradawi has called for an "international day of anger" in response to printing of the Mohammad cartoons first published last year by the Danish newspaper Jyllands Posten.

That's pretty scary, since this cleric as recently at 2004 claimed Palestinian suicide bombers were acting within the Islamic faith.

As he told the BBC:

I consider this type of martyrdom operation as an evidence of God's justice.

Allah Almighty is just; through his infinite wisdom he has given the weak a weapon the strong do not have and that is their ability to turn their bodies into bombs as Palestinians do.
