This is now; these things will fade. But celebrate now:

"No doubt that Obama will be better for the Americans and the whole world, and being elected after the horrible policy of George Bush is enough by itself. Whatever change he can bring to the world after this catastrophic polices would be great," - Hisham Abu Amer, 28, in the West Bank town of Ramallah.

"Today, reality in America has superseded fantasy. ... Americans have struck a deadly blow to racism all over the world. Americans have regained themselves and have regained the American dream. The picture of the U.S. that was disfigured by the Republicans in the past eight years fell from the wall today. The picture of the America we had in our minds has taken its place," - Prominent Saudi columnist Dawood al-Shirian.

This helps us win the war.
