Good summary, Lynda. 

If you all read what bin Laden actually wrote, it becomes apparent that with
the attack on Iraq we have done just what bin Laden wants us to do. As Pat
Buchanan has pointed out (most clearly in his latest book, How the Right
Went Wrong), we have had a tin ear regarding Muslim views on the Mideast
situation.

George Bush's use of the term 'Crusader' was only another nail in the coffin
of the relationship between the US and the moderate Arab states.

I'm not sure that we can reclaim our relationships with the nonradical Arab
states, but we really ought to try. Earth can't take a world war between
Arabs and infidels.

Marie, who objects to being classified as an infidel.

On January 30, 10 days into the current resident's adminstration he already
had "plans" for Iraq and plans to cut loose Sharon because "sometimes a show
of strength by one side can really clarify things" and "maybe that's the
best way to get things back in balance."
