In addition to the pictures of Palestinians dancing in the streets - screened on FOX News, but barely on CNN (CNN correspondent Christian Amanour\'s review of Arab reactions did not include the Palestinian expressions of joy) - commentary on official Iraqi television while the explosion of the WTC was being screened praised the attack. The following text was translated by FBIS, and was supplied thanks to Laurie Mylorie of Iraq Watch and IMRA:
The American cowboy is reaping the fruits of his crimes against humanity... America [is] tasting the bitter defeat of its crimes and disregard for peoples\' will to lead a free, decent life.
The massive explosions in the centers of power in America, notably the Pentagon, is a painful slap in the face of US politicians to stop their illegitimate hegemony and attempts to impose custodianship on peoples. It was no coincidence that the World Trade Center was destroyed in suicidal operations involving two planes that have broken through all US security barriers to carry the operation of the century and to express rejection of the reckless US policy.
...The collapse of US centers of power is a collapse of the US policy, which deviates from human values and stands by world Zionism at all international forums to continue to slaughter the Palestinian Arab people and implement US plans to dominate the world under the cover of what is called the new [world] order. These are the fruits of the new US order.
