However, even the other selected PM's (such as Shaukat Aziz) at least represent actual nations, not the scripturally-proscribed concept of a demoniac crimelord (hajamin husseini, arafat's uncle, a red-headed Damascene who was appointed Jerusalem mufti by the British) given power/authority illegitimately through an outsider-ruler.

Of course, no surprise that other Arab "nations" (Saudis for example, whose royal family is only so because of a similar illegitimate appointment--also by the British) would support such mendacity!
