Our Dear Andrew
I thought I would not clog up 'Aqoul with an irritated side comment on the ever predictable Andrew Sullivan's latest piece of silly phobics in discovering, that as-Sistani (oh the horrors) isn't a liberal or in fact perhaps moderate - except in the sense of being politically modrate relative to the US occupation.
Welcome to the real world Andrew. You might want to try understanding that accomodation with respect to American occupation for own political reasons is not synomous with "moderation" as to belief or dogma.
But no matter, one should be unsurprised that Andrew, filled with his own unexamined old-school Islamophobia, is unable to distinguish between the issues. He's yet to apologise or retract his idiotic comments about a "Muslim" intefada in France last year.

Sullivan won't be happy until there is a gay bar in Mecca.
