Hizbullah issued a statement supporting Grand (not at all) Ayatullah Sistani against the criticisms that aired against him on Al-Jazeera. The statement made an odd reference to the marji`iyyah standing "against foreign occupation." Is Hizbullah talking about the same Sistani, or have they invented a new and improved version of Sistani? When did this Sistani stand against foreign occupation? I mean, yes, he is quite vocal against computer chess, but foreign occupation?
