Newsview: Arab anger at US mounting

WASHINGTON - Egypt's president says Arabs hold a "hatred never equaled" toward America. Jordan's king abruptly postpones a visit to the White House. And those are among the United States' best friends in the Arab world.

The war in Iraq (news - web sites), and a shift on the Israeli-Palestinian issue, has left the Bush administration facing growing hostility and an estrangement from friends across the Middle East.


"There is enormous anger in the Arab world that needs to be dealt with," said Nail Al-Jubeir, a spokesman for the Saudi embassy in Washington.


The White House minimized the problem Tuesday, saying President Bush (news - web sites) did not feel snubbed by King Abdullah II's decision to leave the United States early and skip a planned meeting with Bush at the White House this week. Spokesman Scott McClellan said the meeting was merely postponed until May and chalked it up to "domestic issues" in Jordan.

1. Israel has always believed, and still does, in a solution to the conflict
Gee, maybe even a Final Solution, eh?

3. If anyone "acts" surprised,...they are either a liar, a fool or just plain
Edited on Tue Apr-20-04 07:41 PM by Just Me
stupid. Of course, we are evenly distributed in those areas,...I guess. And I suppose we could actually create a different kind of bell curve that reflects some form of reality rather than an outdated theory,...maybe *sigh*,...being so innovative and superior and ingenious and all that.

Maybe someday we will get that,...others do not hate us for our "freedoms",...they hate us for our abuses and our failures to abide by the only guiding light for humanity: a common rule of law!!! We f*cking blew it when,...well, this administration has totally blown it by giving the finger to so many international treaties and agreements and negotiations.

5. continuing to illegally occupy IRaq will make them like us
I know if Iraq took over the United States and got rid of Bush, we would all love for them to stay and install a puppet government, steal our resources and provide "security" for us helpless citizens....

6. The WHite House
stated that there was really no problem with the King skipping the meeting.. they heard that he had to "take his coke bottles back to the store for the rebate, and then wash his hair right after that.."

what a bunch of hateful assholes.

They've killed us.

America is in prison or targetted because of them, we just don't know how bad it is yet..

7. The freakin' freon neocons have MADE us,...the "evil-doers",...
,...and they are still mindlessly playing their power game, where mindlessless is all the rage with mindless power-seekers who are mindlessly delivering an "evil",...in a blind passion.

Of course,...humanity will still win *LOL*. Only, this time, humanity will win BIG!!! "Goliath" is far easier to topple,...than he thinks *LOL*!!! Just remember that, when "the giant" does fall, that giant lives by rules imposed.

10. Chimp and Chechny planning for major war
Nothing else could possibly explain their step by step series of intentionally engineered emergencies, provocations and blunders. Iraq will look like a side show compared to what they have in store for us.

They hear the cash register ringing and they love it. They have complete control over all three branches of government and are extending their police control of the country from Washington. That is why the Chimp can joke about looking for WMDs, Cheney can openly threatened to destroy countries, and Rumsfeld can lie about virtually everything he ever said or did with complete equanimity. It's all part of the plan. Patriot Act II and 23 new death penalties while the Supreme Court upholds imprisonment without due process of law. The other countries in the world are drawing away from us because they know we've gone nuts.

We're on our way.
