Reply #18: He is also very informal which is not the way Arabs talk [View All]

The first two paragraphs:

"My message to you is about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and how to end them. I did not intend to speak to you about this because this issue has already been decided. Only metal breaks metal, and our situation, thank God, is only getting better and better, while your situation is the opposite of that.

But I plan to speak about the repeated errors your President Bush has committed in comments on the results of your polls that show an overwhelming majority of you want the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq. But he (Bush) has opposed this wish and said that withdrawing troops sends the wrong message to opponents, that it is better to fight them (bin Laden's followers) on their land than their fighting us (Americans) on our land"

That's not the way a dictator talks. Saudi Arabia is a hierarchical the normal way to make a speech is to talk down to people and not like a friend who is making a speech during a party. He is only gaining some momentum in the end, but the rest is too informal.
