...“Kharittat Al Tariq” (Road Map) is the name of the song which gives voice to widespread views in the Egyptian street regarding the 11 September events and the US-Iraq standoff. The song talks about the road map and includes quotes from US President George W. Bush about the plan’s implementation. The song goes on to describe how America is the spitting image of Israel and it carries out its desires making the world into a “jungle.”

But it does not stop at that point, (Shaaban) Abdel Rahim goes on to boldly sing that the USA is the perpetrator of the 11 September attacks.
