I don't know about the authenticity but it sounds good!!
Since America is typically represented by an eagle. Saddam should have read up on his Muslim passages...

The following verse is from the Koran, (the Islamic Bible)

Koran (9:11) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a
fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in
despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the
lands of Allah; and there was peace.
(Note the verse number!) Hmmmmm?!

hummm..... it depends on where you are at on the earth, so does Egypt, Syria and Yemen.

Wonder if you can tell us the literal translation of the passage?

Here's what it really says:
[9.11] But if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, they are your brethren in faith; and We make the communications clear for a people who know.
