At a parliamentary session in June 2006 to discuss ratification of the convention, Sheikh Adel Mouwda, the former leader of a salafist party, Asalah, explained the party's objections: "The convention has been tailored by our enemies, God kill them all, to serve their needs and protect their interests rather than ours.
Who acts: enemies, God, party, Convention · What happens: discuss, explain, tailor, kill, serve, protect · To what, where: ratification, objections, parliamentary session, convention, needs, interests · Speech: someone speaks here
