Remember last year when protests broke out across the Middle East because of
a report in Newsweek that our military was flushing the Quran? It created a big
back lash that ended up with Newsweek publishing a retraction and the right
escalating their attack against opponents of the war.

Here we are 7 months later and once again the actions of the U.S. has
provoked protests in the Middle East:

Chanting “Death to America,” Islamic groups held nationwide protests
Sunday as anger mounted over a purported CIA airstrike that Pakistan says
killed innocent civilians instead of the apparent target — al-Qaida’s No. 2
leader.

Meanwhile, a newspaper reported that the mission was launched on
intelligence that Ayman al-Zawahri had been invited to dinner that night in
one of three houses leveled by the attack on Damadola, a village near the
Afghan border.

Islamabad — which insists it does not allow the 20,000 U.S. soldiers in
Afghanistan to cross the border in the hunt for Taliban or al-Qaida fighters
— has condemned the strike. The Pakistanis have shown increasing frustration
over a recent series of suspected U.S. attacks along the frontier aimed at
Islamic militants.

Pakistani officials say innocent people were among the 17 men, women and
children killed in Friday’s attack and al-Zawahri, Osama bin Laden’s top
lieutenant, was not even there.

Now we have a new problem here. We can not place blame on a news media. Their
is evidence to support what they are protesting. That evidence is in bombed out
houses and bodies. Bush is doing what he can to make the United States the most
hated country in the Middle East. Of course this is also helping Osama recruit
more terrorists. That is how Bush tries to keep us safe.
