(AFP) - Opposition party PAS is planning to demonstrate against the attacks on Afghanistan outside the US embassy in Kuala Lumpur on Friday.
PAS youth chief Mahfuz Omar said party president Fadzil Noor and spiritual leader Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat would hand over a memorandum protesting the US strikes.
"Party members and opposers of the attack on Afghanistan will be gathering outside the embassy after Friday prayers," he told AFP today.
Mahfuz had earlier handed in a memorandum to United Nations offices here condeming the UN's "failure to deal with international terrorism, including allowing the US to carry out the biggest act of terrorism of this century in Afghanistan".
"The purpose of the attacks by the US and Britain in Afghanistan are not to fight terrorism, but more to kill innocent Muslims," the memorandum read.
The PAS president on Monday labelled Americans "war criminals" and appeared to back demands for a jihad, or holy war.
However, Mahfuz said the party did not have plans to send military help to the Taliban. "We will not be recruiting people to send over to Afghanistan, we will wait and monitor the situation," he said.
