"Our enemies weave many lies about us, which we are not necessarily aware of. For example: One day, we awoke to the crime of 9/11, which hit the tallest buildings in New York, the Empire State Building [sic]. There is no doubt that not a single Arab or Muslim had anything to do with these events. The incident was fabricated as a pretext to attack Islam and Muslims. The plan was to take over the world's energy sources, and to achieve this control by force and not by agreement or negotiations, by interests, free trade, or anything like that. This is what they wanted.
"All of a sudden, after we had been accustomed to considering America a rational and balanced country... All of a sudden, it violates international conventions, cancels treaties, ignores the U.N., acts on its own accord, attacks nations, kills innocent people, and claims it has the right to do so - and all this is based on lies.
"These were lies from beginning to end, and we were not used to lying - not in policy, not in our discourse, and not in the media. Imagine what crisis the Arab and Islam nation finds itself in, in the midst of these peculiar events, which we cannot explain or believe.
"All of a sudden, we were framed for an international crime, on the basis of lies.
"I believe a dirty Zionist hand carried out this act. Zionism has taken the opportunity to escalate the war in Palestine, killing hundreds of thousands so far, while we watch from the sidelines in astonishment and ask: What's going on?"

This opinion is commonplace in Islam. What is troubling is the influence this academic has and the constant lobbying he does with this inflammatory slop.
Why did our "great friend" Saudi Arabia allow this interview to be broadcast on their own Channel 1 government affairs television network on August 8, 2005, the same day their government said its relationship with America had never been better and the same day our embassies there announced they were closing due to an impending terrorist attack?
Does the University of Colorado need an Islamic Studies prof.?
Jaw dropping idiocy.
To paraphrase: "It was the Saudis all along." Allahu fubar!
An Arab blaming the JOOOOOSSSSSS is hardly a shock. I would like to believe there are sane people in the Islamic world. Alas, I just don't see it.
not zionists, UNDERPANTS KNOMES!!!!

After we conquer Saudi Arabia (inevitable), we can talk about what role the arabs might be relegated to, such as scrubbing commodes, etc. After cleaning latrines for ten years, the average Arab could be elevated to shoe-shiner of Westerners, who will have crushed their f*ing primitive asses and who will always do so. The arab girlymen could'nt carry the jockstraps of those who the West has defeated over the past 200 years. Arabs are girls, the planet's sucking losers.
This is a good example of why we may need to finish up in Riyadh. You're not done until the paperwork is done, according to the sign in the public restroom, and we aren't done while guys like this are on a public salary in Saudi Arabia.
The Saudis are very much responsible for the rise of Al Qaeda. They have funded it, and their own state funded priesthood have provided the justification. Their state-funded missionaries have spread jihadist hate from one end of the globe to another. If "moderate" muslims are hard to find it is in part because Saudi funding has put jihadist priests in charge of mosques where so-called "moderates" once preached, all over the world, including the US and Britain.
The 911 attackers had Saudi Royal dollars in their pockets. The men who attacked in London were led and inspired by jihadist priests. Another such attack and I would say we have a date in Riyadh. If democracy came to the Kingdom, the King would be Filipino, and I don't have a problem with that.
Yeah that Empire State Building fell real hard the morning of 9-11....idiots.
This sums up the fundamental believe of the left from Michale Moore to DU to Cindy Sheehan... no matter how they gloss over it this it the true foundation of there believe and they act according to it... do you believe it's rational thinking on there part?...
as they say in the Alfred Hitchcock movie "Lifeboat" of the Nazi U-Boat captain in there lifeboat(who seems so relational and human)after he betrays there trust... "What you going to do with people like this?"
I always wonder if they're just completely nuts or the lying spawn of the devil.
You should go back to the archives and the sermons...then you'll really see something.
