Al-Sadr’s Basra Aide Offers Rewards

Associated Press

A senior aide of radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr told worshippers during a Friday sermon in southern Iraq (news - web sites) that anyone capturing a female British soldier can keep her as a slave.

The aide, Sheik Abdul-Sattar al-Bahadli, also called on supporters to launch jihad, or holy war, against British troops in this southern city...

...He also accused British forces in Basra of failing to honor agreements not to patrol inside the city and to stop harassing al-Sadr supporters in Basra.

Al-Bahadli said 250,000 dinars — about $350 — will be given to anyone capturing a British soldier and 100,000 dinars — or $150 — to anyone killing one...

He also called on government departments in Basra to display pictures of al-Sadr in their offices.
You know, this is so 19th century. Hey pal, you are about 200 years out of date. Get with it.
