-- Under the title "Half a Government" Mohammed Musaed Al-Saleh
editorialized in progressive Arabic daily Al-Qabas (03/20):
"When the Palestinians announced their parliamentary elections and
the formation of a majority government, America and the West
condemned their democracy. They want a democracy where the winning
parties are supporters of their policies and interests."
-- Under the title "The Truth About the Conflict Between Iran and
America" Mohammed Zain commented in pro-government daily Al-Seyassah
(03/20):
"The enrichment of Uranium and the nuclear-program issue are but
pretexts for America to direct a military blow to Iran which aims at
destabilizing the latter."
