Al-Ahram Newspaper, Egypt, September 20, 2001, cartoon blaming the CIA & FBI for the Sep 11 attacks The folks at MEMRI helpfully gathered the Arab and Iranian reactions to the Sep 11 attacks five years after the fact and presented them in this 43 minute movie. Most of it goes something like this: "When the twin towers collapsed... My lungs filled with air and I breathed in relief, as I had never breathed before." 'Ali 'Uqleh 'Ursan, Syrian Arab Writers Association chairman Al-Usbu' Al-Adabi (Damascus) September 15, 2001 Middle Eastern Muslims are pretty sure that neither Osama Bin Laden nor Muslims had anything to do with the Sep 11 attacks but they are convinced it was a Zionist conspiracy. What passes for an esteemed intellectual on Arab and Iranian television is what passes for a crazy street person shouting about Martians in America. If you haven't seen it, you must see it. Fortunately, not every Muslim is a raving bigoted nutcase. There are actually some sane ones at the end of the flick, thank goodness.
