Bush and Blair have already lost the war of words across the Middle East

Article Abstract:

Pro-Western rulers in the Middle East have carefully avoided any overt criticism of the Allied air attacks on Afghanistan. This is boosting support for Osama bin Laden among Middle East Muslims, as he seems to express their concerns and frustrations. They feel that he is telling the truth about Western mistreatment of the Middle East.

'Friends' in Middle East rebuff US and flock to Tehran

Article Abstract:

There are clear indications that US influence in the Middle East is waning as Arab nations meet together in Iran for an Islamic conference. This will discuss issues including women's rights and education, as well as the crisis in the Middle East. It seems that almost all Arab countries have now given up hope in the peace process. It is a cause of considerable embarrassment to the US that they are willing to meet in Iran, which the US is still trying to isolate, while they were not willing to attend the Arab-Israeli economic summit in Qatar in Nov 1997.
