"It is to restore dignity for Mohammedans and to drive you out of the Arabian Peninsula," said Hazmi, who appeared with a patchy beard, wearing a brown thawb garment and a black turban. "The Aqsa mosque (in Jerusalem) is being desecrated... and the Arabian Peninsula is full of U.S. and British troops that fight Allah," he said in a clear reference to foreign troops based at the time in Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in their national face.... |
