Mickey Mouse gets the death sentence....
Maybe the International Court of Justice will detain him for trial...
Sheikh Muhammad Munajid claimed the mouse is "one of Satan's soldiers" and makes everything it touches impure.
But he warned that depictions of the creature in cartoons such as Tom and Jerry, and Disney's Mickey Mouse, had taught children that it was in fact loveable.
The cleric, a former diplomat at the Saudi embassy in Washington DC, said that under Sharia, both household mice and their cartoon counterparts must be killed.
Mr Munajid was asked to give Islam's teaching on mice during a religious affairs programme broadcast on al-Majd TV, an Arab television network.
According to a translation prepared by the Middle East Media Research Institute, an American press monitoring service, he said: "The mouse is one of Satan's soldiers and is steered by him.
"If a mouse falls into a pot of food – if the food is solid, you should chuck out the mouse and the food touching it, and if it is liquid – you should chuck out the whole thing, because the mouse is impure.
"According to Islamic law, the mouse is a repulsive, corrupting creature. How do you think children view mice today – after Tom and Jerry?
"Even creatures that are repulsive by nature, by logic, and according to Islamic law have become wonderful and are loved by children. Even mice.
"Mickey Mouse has become an awesome character, even though according to Islamic law, Mickey Mouse should be killed in all cases."

Oil money may make the Islamist clerics wealthy beyond their wildest dreams, but that does not change the fact that 70 years ago, these seventh century nomadic throwbacks were riding camels and scrounging for food and water.
In a world where western society has bypassed these people by leaps and bounds, these dolts cling to the hope that they can gain parity by intimidation and violence.
There is no modern Islam.No modern learning, no modern thought.The only technology deemed valuable to them is western designed military hardware.Our tools are only palatable if it helps them to obtain their goal of a world caliphate.
Their buffoons should be ridiculed, their ideas scorned, and their radicals eliminated.
Any other path should be trod at our own peril..
