One of the core tenets of the modern pan-Islamist movement is that no "Muslim" leader is to be reproached by a kuffar (unbeliever)—even if the "Muslim" leader in question was no more pious than the worst stereotypes of a Western leader.
Case in point—An "anti-Israel" protest in Casablanca, Morocco, where we once again get a glimpse at the utter depravity of the Islamists at the gates, as exhibited by their reverence to a horrific killer:

Earlier this month, Israel tightened its already stringent restrictions on the movement of goods into Gaza in response to ongoing rocket fire at southern Israel from the territory, causing a severe shortage of fuel, electricity cutbacks and a lack of some basic foods. About 1,000 people marched through the streets of Casablanca to express their solidarity with the Palestinian people. (AP Photo/ Abdeljalil Bounhar)
I'm shocked, shocked, I tell ya.
