(Jerusalem Post)- Khaled Abu Toameh PA National Security Adviser Jibril Rajoub on Sunday launched a scathing attack on the U.S. and called on Arabs to support "resistance operations" against American troops in Iraq. "It's time for the Arabs to wake up and rise. They must strengthen the Iraqi resistance against the American occupation," Rajoub told the Saudi daily Al-Jazeera. Rajoub's anti-American sentiments follow attacks by PA commentators and officials on President Bush for calling for greater democracy in the Middle East. Palestinian newspapers are full of cartoons and articles mocking the U.S. losses in Iraq and praising the attacks on U.S. soldiers.
