Are Arab countries finally getting the message?

From Fox News

Car bombings in Saudi Arabia. A chilling tale of a foiled Al Qaeda plot in Jordan. A fire-fight in the Syrian capital.

With attacks such as these, which targeted or resulted in the deaths of Arab civilians, Islamic militants have angered not just their enemies but also the very Muslims they claim to champion.

"These people do not have a specific logic, and unfortunately, we are facing a group of insane people," said Imad Shuaibi (search), a Syrian political analyst, summing up the sense of fear and frustration in Damascus after unidentified attackers last week set off a bomb and then fired bullets and grenades at Syrian security forces in a diplomatic neighborhood.

Right. That is what we have been telling you all along. What part about 911 did you not get?

The militants made an unusual and horrific appeal to recruit young Saudis, dragging the bloodied corpse of a Westerner through a high school parking lot and urging the students to join their Arab brethren in a holy war in Iraq.

They appear to have badly miscalculated the response: school officials said some of the boys ran from the scene crying; others spoke of nightmares.

"This is not right," said a traumatized 18-year-old. "This is un-Islamic."

But 911 was ok was it?

Saudi authorities have cracked down on accused militants since a string of terror attacks that began with coordinated suicide bombings at Riyadh housing compounds last May that killed 34 people, including eight Americans.

So long as they attack outside Saudi Arabi it's ok then?

But just who are these terrorists? The Saudis know.

Nevertheless, Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah, who runs the day-to-day affairs of the kingdom in the name of his invalided brother King Fahd, blamed internal Saudi terrorism on "Zionists."

"Zionism is behind terrorist actions in the kingdom," Abdullah told a gathering of princes in Jiddah following the Saturday attacks. "I can say that I am 95 percent sure of that."

There they go again. bin Laden gets the credit for Al-Qaeda and the Jews get credit for the Saudi attacks. Poor ole Al-Zarqawi does all the work and gets no credit. What is a terrorist mastermind to do? Give up perhaps? Just a thought.
