-- Eid Al-Dihaiwis wrote in the moderate daily Al-Qabas
under the title "Secular America incites nations": "It turns
out that most of the Muslim youths who go to Iraq for the
purpose of carrying out Jihad have no relation to Al-Qaeda;
rather, it is the result of the American occupation of Iraq.
That means that hostility towards the United States of
America has dramatically increased after the invasion of
Iraq. The American media campaign to win the war and market
the occupation. Arab anger began to boil and Islamic Jihad
began to move as the United States of America sank deeper
into the Iraqi swamp, until it became the state of torture,
political lies, and injustice. The Iraqis have proven
themselves with no help from the outside, if they are helped
then Iraq will become the ground on which the United States
of America loses its ideological, political, and military
reputations. The problem with America is that it is
arrogant and underestimates the power of others. Also, its
problem is that it does not know God's rules for the
universe. If it did, it would not have been so sure of its
power and its political, media, or military planning."
