Yusuf Al-Qaradawi

Of course, I don't like Aljazeera's cleric, Yusuf Al-Qaradawi, and it is not because I don't like clerics, priests, etc.  And I don't like him in particular but he is, whether I like it or not, very very influential.  Today, he appeared on Aljazeera and urged the Egyptian Army to move against Mubarak, whom he accused of butchering the Egyptian people, and he urged the clerics of Egypt to join the revolt.  He is quite influential and I would say his influence exceeds that of all the Al-Azhar clerics combined.
