Daily Star newspaper quoted today Senior Shiite Cleric Sayyed Mohammad Hussein Fadlallah in an interview with Kuwaiti Ad-Dar newspaper saying on Monday that he rejects the notion of a Shiite project that differs from that of their Sunnite brethren. "We are looking forward to one Islamic project that engulfs big Islamic issues," he added.Fadlallah explained that a 'Sunnite-Shiite' strife, in the full sense of the word, did not occur in Lebanon. "But there are leaders who want to build their leaderships on a sectarian basis in addition to some Arab countries that encourage and finance such desire," he added.
Fadlallah said that the visit to Najaf of Future Movement leader Saad Hariri cannot have a "big influence as it moves through economics and not politics."
