well , in this arabic site
أخبار الأخيرة | الشيخ المنجد: لم يصدر عني بيان أو فتوى بقتل ميكي ماوس

the same shiekh denyed that , he says that he didn't issue this fatwa

he said that the source of his words about miky mouse was taken form TV program talking about the influence of photos upon the minds

and he said that the context of the words which quoted from him exist in jew's site called memmory , the objective of this site is monitoring the islamic programs and take some of it's scens out of context with wrong translations and broadcasting it in the international channels


i have no time nor good ability to translte for you all the article .
but briefly he didn't issued such fatwas nor was he talking about micky mouse in the first place
he just mentioned it after interfere from the producer of the program
he was talking in general about the influence of cartoons in general upon the minds of children

I thought the topic said:

Recent Farts.

That would have been a better topic considering where these clowns are speaking from.
