UN condemns Gaddafi jihad call

Posted on February 26, 2010March 3, 2010 by Martin Surridge

EXCERPT from Al Jazeera English (link below):

The United Nations and European Union have condemned a call from Libya’s leader for Muslims to carry out jihad against Switzerland over a recent vote to ban the construction of minarets in the European country.

Gaddafi said: “Any Muslim around the world who has dealings with Switzerland is an infidel [and is] against Islam, against Mohammed, against God, against the Quran.”
