Israel Radio is dwelling on a statement I made yesterday at the Quranic competitions, that America deployed its forces to the region with the intention of besieging Iran, but now America itself is vulnerable and under siege by Iran.
On the second anniversary of September 11, the Bush administration is under heavy pressure due to the failure of its claimed programs to eradicate terrorism, being stuck in the quagmire of Iraq, Afghanistan, and Palestine, the high costs and casualties, the security pressures on the American people, and the budget deficit.
During Donald Rumsfeld's speech for the September 11 ceremony, the audience interrupted him several times. They asked him, how many children and how many American soldiers have been killed in Iraq today? A balloon with an anti-war message was released by a woman from beside the podium. US Congress members said that Bush has spent 90 billion dollars on the Iraq war so far and is now requesting another 87 billion dollars.
In Britain, newspapers called Tony Blair a bloodthirsty man and said that 37,000 people have been killed in Iraq so far, 3,000 of whom are children. A video tape of Osama bin Laden and his deputy Ayman al-Zawahiri was broadcast on Al Jazeera television, in which they praised the September 11 operation and promised a blow harder than that against America.
George Bush, in a lackluster speech, defended his actions and said that terrorism has been weakened, and asked other countries to set aside their differences with America and help solve Iraq's problems with financial and military assistance. He said that America did not have a correct understanding of the extensive infrastructural damage in Iraq before the war.

I was working in my small office in Kushk until the evening. In the evening, Fati and Sara brought Sara's twins, my grandchildren, for the adhan to be whispered in their ears. We spent some time with the children; they are our first grandchildren.
