Don't know to whom the Arab News is referrring. Perhaps Henry Cabot Lodge. Certainly Teddy Roosevelt wasn't too far removed from this philosophy.

That said, the story from Arab News is consistent with the common Arab response to 9-11:

1) Play down atrocities perpetrated against Americans and pretend those against Jews haven't occurred.

2) Promote Islamic paranoia by warning of anti-Muslim pressure groups influencing U.S. foreign policy.

3) Characterize Americans and Christians generally as congenitally disposed to political and religious imperialism.

Yep, whip them into a frenzy. Tell them we are coming and it's just because they exist, nothing more. That's easier to do when the government controls the press as well.
