Interesting observation that "the rising tide of American domestic opposition to the war has begun to reassure deeply sceptical Arabs that the superpower may not, after all, be keen to linger on Arab soil for ever."

It could be that the Arabs are figuring out we really do not want to have to be there anymore than they want us to be there.

So, if they just back off the jihad stuff maybe we will go away. At least go away enough that they don't feel occupied.
