More Australian Mufti madness (hat tip: Shy Guy)
Douglas Wood could be killed if he returned to Iraq after calling his captors “a***holes”, a spokesman for the Mufti of Australia said.Mr Wood, 63, arrived in Australia on Monday after spending 47 days as a hostage in the war-torn country, but has indicated he may go back for business reasons.But Keysar Trad, a spokesman for Australian Mufti Sheikh Taj Aldin Alhilali, said he would be very afraid for Mr Wood’s life if he returned to Iraq.“I would be very concerned for his safety, especially after the comments that he’s made yesterday with the negative references he’s made to the people who were holding him,” Mr Trad told the Nine Network.“If you compare that with other hostages who have been freed, you’d find that they actually came out and stated that they well looked after, they were fed,” he said.“In his case, he also received regular medical treatment … (and) to go back into a society like this I would really be concerned for his safety.“I would be very afraid this time they may not just target him for captivity, they may just target him point blank.”
Is it just me, or does it sound like Hilali, through his spokesman, is rooting for the terrorists? It sounds like he is complimenting their treatment of Mr Wood, who he views as an ungrateful bastard.
A**hole.
Oops..maybe I should be concerned for my safety now, if I ever return to Australia.
