Theocracy

Supporters of radical clerics have begun a new holy war in Iran.

The Fatwa declares that "Iraq is a nation under Allah founded on Islam" and that the party is pledged "toward dispelling the myth that Islam is separate from the state.."

They oppose any governmental action to restrict, prohibit, or remove public display of the Koran or other religious symbols.

They support a constitutional act "which would among other provisions bar the Iraqi courts from hearing and ruling in cases regarding governmental entities or officials who acknowledge "Allah as the sovereign source of law, liberty, or government." The law would also permit the impeachment and removal of judges who listen to such cases.

They would forbid judges from determining the constitutionality of laws and end Iraqi court jurisdiction in cases involving Sharia law. It calls for the impeachment of judges who, through the subjective judgment of others, "abuse their authority."

They support minimal oversight and regulation of Mosques and Madrases.

They oppose the teaching of science, where it conflicts with the Koran, or any Mullah's interpretation of the Koran.

They support criminal penalties on medical professionals and scientists who engage in education or research not supported by the Koran.

Their platform supports the widespread and systematic discrimination against homosexuals, and others, including imprisonment and fines for those violating Sharia law and removal of Iraq's jurisdiction over like cases.

... Oh wait, that was the Texas GOP and the guy nailed to two pieces of wood.
