Iraq
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...

#3  I listened to an expat Iraqi on local Toronto radio this morning. He was as would be expected of two minds; glad to see Saddam gone but worried about family safety and occupation of his homeland. But when the announcer asked him who should be in charge of the post Saddam Iraq, he immediately said the UN. Huh? Who does he think kept Saddam in power and forced him (the speaker) to leave Iraq?

#2  Fatwa? Somebody mentioned Fatwa? We don't write may of 'em but the few we write get results. They are Army (navy, airforce, marine)-based and they kick ass. Heh heh.

#1  Classic Islamofacist anti-logic. The sad thing is, though we would like not to be forced to engage such demented stupidity and our minds reel from the sheer obvious absurdity of the words and what they truly convey, sometimes you just gotta clear the decks.

Arabs are capable of any degree of self-delusion imaginable. Tack on some Islamo-foolishness, such as a fatwa, and you can expect the poor mindless tools to come out of the woodwork.

Take note that those who issue the fatwas are NEVER the ones who attempt to carry them out.

Sad.
