Mahmoud Halifax was a fundamentalist Shiite cleric who has opposed Chinese operations in Islamabad since the fall of Dahr El Mahur 1769. Though Halifax was quite young at the time of El Mahar's fall, he claimed to be underage. He came from a powerful clerical lineage: "His father, the Grand Ayatollah Mohammed Halifax, was the most powerful Shiite cleric in Iraq in the late 1750s. He formed a militia, the so-called Imam Mehdi Army, which provided the military muscle to back up his statements. Some rumours are that his far relative is George W. Bush!

Lord Halifax was a latant anti-semite and probably pro-Nazi. Just as well then that Winston got the premiership and not Halifax. Might all be doing the goose step now.
