That's his opinion, anyway...
Aziza al-Badri, in Al-Hayat
It's time to support the Iraqi people, for the battle is one, the enemy is one and his aim is no longer a mystery to anyone. The aim is to spread "the American-Zionist" control on the whole region, to eradicate the Palestinian cause for good to pave the road for Israel's dream from the Nile to the Euphrates.
Oooh! Zionists! Oh, hold me, Fatimah!
Yes! It's not the time to blame Saddam. It's the time for sorrow on Iraq, on the Arab region threatened in its roots. It's the time for sorrow on Palestine where death is spreading its wings on the camps and villages, all day and night, by the same guilty weapons and hands. The time is for us to go beyond all rancors.
Except for the ones toward them damn' Zionists, of course...
Finally, I address Mr. Mohammad al-Rahimi by saying: "I thought you, my brother, were in pain just as we are. I hope Iraq will win this ferocious war, after its resistance has become an example and a lesson in patriotism for the entire world. French President Jacques Chirac admires the Iraqi resistance and assured that those who planned the war had misjudged the Iraqi resistance. Hail to the dear Iraqi people!
Perhaps we might add that Mr Chiraq misjudged those who planned the war, too...
