(AP/New York Times)The militant group Ansar al-Sunna and two other insurgent groups issued a statement Thursday against voting in the Iraqi election scheduled for Jan. 30. "Democracy is a Greek word meaning the rule of the people, which means that the people do what they see fit," the statement said. "This concept is considered apostasy and defies the belief in one God - Muslims' doctrine." Ansar al-Sunna had earlier posted a manifesto on its Web site saying democracy amounted to idolizing human beings. The statement Thursday reiterated that "anyone who accepts to take part in this dirty farce will not be safe." The statements by the Sunni Arab-dominated insurgent groups seemed aimed at countering Shi'ite leaders' declarations that voting in the election was every Muslim's duty. 2004-12-31 00:00:00Full Article
