  1. Well it was endorsed as a 'must read' by Osama bin Laden on September 7, 2007.  

    The author makes a good point that Arabs don't much care for the US's morals etc but don't get riled until the US encroaches on their soil.  It points out that OBL's initial beef with the US was the continued presence of US bases in Saudi Arabia and then this was augmented by the invasion of Afghanistan.  OBL was quite happy that the US invaded Iraq as he had issued a 'fatwa' against Sadam Hussein and was quite pleased that 1. the US did his dirty work for him, and 2, he could turn the Iraq invasion into a tool to inspire more recruits.
