Arabs paid heaviest price for 9/11: Syria (AFP, September 11, 2002)

The Arabs have paid the heaviest price for September 11 while Israel has exploited the terror attacks on its US ally to the full, official newspapers in Syria said.

"It is no exaggeration to say the Arabs, along with the Palestinian cause, have paid the highest price for the September 11 terrorist attacks" on New York and Washington, Tishrin said on the first anniversary.

If the Osamas had any sense of history, beyond their carefully nursed grievances, they might have noticed that the Japanese paid the heaviest price for 12/7. Posted by Orrin Judd at September 12, 2002 5:24 PM
