U.S.-backed channel is 'forbidden' by fatwa
AFP
Tuesday, March 9, 2004

RIYADH The U.S.-financed Arabic television channel Alhurra is "forbidden" for Muslims, a leading Saudi cleric declared in an Islamic ruling published Monday.

"This channel is a source of corruption" intended to "fight Islam," the cleric, Sheik Ibrahim bin Nasser al-Kudheiri, a judge at the grand Islamic court in Riyadh, wrote in the fatwa, published by the newspaper Al Hayat.

Another purpose of the channel, the cleric wrote, is to "support American hegemony."
