ARAB WORLD BITTERNESS ABOUT SOMALI INVASION

CAIRO, Egypt: The unruly scene at Saddam Hussein's execution, gunbattles in Baghdad and U.S. airstrikes on Somalia are increasing hostility towards America in the Arab world and deepening the the Shiite-Sunni divide.

The conflicts in Iraq and Somalia are not directly connected, but this week's U.S. strikes in the Horn of Africa country are feeding a fear among Sunni Muslim Arabs that a growing campaign is challenging their historic dominance of the Middle East.

In Somalia, the assault is seen as coming from mainly Christian Ethiopia, whose troops swept in to topple the hard-line Islamic group that had seized control over much of the country. In Iraq, the threat comes from Shiites, brought to power by the U.S. invasion and backed by Iran.

The Ethiopian invasion, "backed completely by the United States and Israel, ... has led to the occupation of a nation that is a member of the Arab League for more than 30 years, yet no one in the Arab world has moved," prominent columnist Fahmi Huweidi wrote Wednesday in the Arab daily Asharq al-Awsat.

"Anything has become permitted as long as the goal is to strike Islamic radicals, even if it leads to the occupation of an Arab nation and the defiling of its political honor, making it a morsel for the Americans, Ethiopians and Israelis," he said.

The editor in chief of the Islamic Banner, an Egyptian goverment religious newspaper, went further, trashing U.S. President George W. Bush as "Dracula .. thirsty for the blood of Arabs and Muslims."

"He invaded Afghanistan ... then he invaded Iraq. Now I wake up to the news of U.S. forces striking Somalia, killing dozens of Muslims," Mohammed al-Zarqani wrote. "Will Somalia become another Iraq or Afghanistan? The Dracula of the modern age is determined that it will."

Reaction from Arab governments was muted over the American strikes in Somalia this week, which a Somali official said killed a leading al-Qaida figure sought by the United States but also reportedly killed civilians. Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit on Wednesday said "there should be caution in using force against civilians."

Somalia lies on the outer rim of the Arab world, and it is not connected to the Sunni-Shiite division in the region.

The whole Muslim world is bitter about the American aggression against Muslims. May Allah protect us from the evils of the infidels, the hypocrites and the devil.

Aameen. But can some-one tell me what Arabs have done for Somalis, except harrass them in their countries or deport them at the worst possible moment ( the only exception being Syria and the old Iraq).

Niya I donÂ’t like the idea of just liking people who do you something. I like people for the sake of Allah.

Having said that, after the withdrawal of the western aid agencies from Southern Somalia (claiming it was too dangerous for them) the only aid coming to Somalia was from ArabsÂ….there are schools, orphanages and other charity organisations that were established through the donations of arab muslims and some Somalis. The arabs also purchase the exports from Somalia. Many Somalis live in arab countries, working and studying and most of the Somali companies are based in Arab countries. Somalis have been deported from other countries not just by the arabs. I donÂ’t like how Saudis deal with deportations but we canÂ’t hold this against all arabs.
