Saturday, February 03, 2007
-- Dr. Abdul Mohsen Yousef Jamal editorialized in progressive Arabic
daily Al-Qabas under the title "President Bush and His Coming War"
(02/03):
"America's entrance into a new war is the key to making Congress and
the American people stand by President Bush and the Republican
Party, even in only for a while. However, Iran is different from
Iraq. We in the Gulf, and especially in Kuwait, have to be prepared
for the worst-case scenario."
-- Lawyer and columnist Mamdouh Ismail commented in moderate Arabic
daily Al-Rai under the title "Examining the Elat Operation"
(02/03):
"It is the fate of the Palestinian resistance to fight on two fronts
-- the front of the occupying enemy and the front of the
Americanized Palestinians."
-- Under the title "America and Hostility to Sunnis", Dr. Fahd Saleh
Al-Khanna wrote:
"American has not learned from its past mistakes as it has delegated
its security campaign in Iraq to Iranian gangs that rule Iraq.
America lets the wolf shepherd the sheep."
