-- Under the title "Ramification of the Iranian Nuclear Program:
Battle Order" Abdul Karim Al-Gharabally penned in progressive Arabic
daily Al-Qabas (04/16):
"Iran refuses to learn from the lessons of past wars in the region
and insists on forcing its people to participate in a war then
cannot win. This comes with encouragement from those who are
controlled by their emotions and who live in a fantasy world."
-- Liberal Dr. Shamlan Al-Issa commented in pro-government Arabic
daily Al-Seyassah under the title "Terrorism and the Necessity for
Self-Criticism" (04/16):
"Extremism and terror in the Arab World will continue so long as we
do not prevent the exploitation of religion for political and
opportunistic uses."
