Expelled Mufti of Tyre

It is funny when the Wahhabi zealots try to prop up Shi`ite alternatives to Hizbullah. They stumbled on this cleric whose fatwawawas can be bought with a fistful of drihams.  He used to be a fanatic shaykh with Hizbullah in the 1980s (in its horrific stage under the leader of Subhi Tufayli who is now looking for a sponsor), and then joined Amal, and now is with House of Saud.  A man of principles, you may say.  The former Mufti of Tyre is so hated by the people of Tyre that they admirably removed him from office and expelled him from Tyre.  That is democracy in clerical selections.
