As the facts come out, the bitterness will change. It just takes a little time. Mubarak's remarks are undoubtedly colored with the same kind of Arab misunderstanding and propaganda.


They have less reason to like us than I have to like Bush. They don't want to like us. Any good we do is outweighed by the bad.

Just as the Kuwaitis now respect us for what we did 12 years ago, so, too, will the Iraqis.

In 12 years, why hasn't the respect the Kuwaitis have for us spread throughout the Arab world? After all, the Kuwaitis are not despised like the Saudis. The Arabs saw how we saved the Kuwaitis' butts. And yet, by all appearances, they hate us more.

It seems to me we are doing far more wrong than good to engender the kind of contempt we do.
