-- Under the title "Israel Amongst Its Enemies" Abdulla Al-Hadlaq
editorialized in conservative Arabic daily Al-Watan (03/04):
"A military confrontation between the international community and
Iranian terrorism is inevitable. When it happens, Iran will be
completely crushed in the first round."
-- Under the title "There Are No Permanent Friends or Enemies"
Khaled Al-Qattan penned in moderate Arabic daily Al-Anbaa (03/04):
"The coming period will transform the situation in the region from
an anti-American anti-Zionist struggle to an international struggle.
This transformation will come about as a result of America's
control over oil sources in the Gulf. It is not an exaggeration to
say that America is preparing a costly defensive apparatus to
protect the oil wells."
