I wonder if Naggar and the arab nations who feel betrayed will reassess their support for US policies if Bush suffers a huge defeat in 04? Or is this damage with us for decades, I wonder.

"I feel we have been deceived about the nature and character of the United States of America," he said.

Remarkably, these are the words of a friend. Naggar is a World Bank veteran who quotes the Declaration of Independence and whose son is a US citizen. His library is stocked with works of Thomas Paine, Thomas Jefferson and "all the great founders." He lived for 17 years in Washington, where he says he never felt like a foreigner, and still longs for the city's intellectual and artistic life.
