Iraqi-Americans Rejoice
While many media are giving publicity to appeasement protests by non-Iraqi Muslims in America, the Orange County Register today noted that Iraqi-Americans are celebrating and praising President Bush.
"This is the day we've been waiting for" was the theme of a gathering of Iraqi-Americans last night in Tustin, Calif.
"My mind is with the people over there, what they're thinking right now," said Mohammad Alnajafi. "I know they're scared, but it's like they're in a tunnel running toward the light. These moments are like centuries for them. No one knows what Saddam might do, but he cannot take the country hostage forever."
"I would like to go kiss Bush on his head," said Faiza Nouri, 62. Her son has been missing in Iraq for more than 20 years
