     يَعْنِي مَا فَشِلُوا فِي إِنْجَازِهِ وَتَحْقِيقِهِ عَسْكَرِيًّا يُرِيدُونَ أَنْ يَذْهَبُوا اِلَيْهِ بِالتَّجْوِيعِ وَالْحِصَارِ وَالْعُقُوبَاتِ، وَهٰذَا دَيْدَنُ الشَّيْطَانِ الْاَكْبَرِ وَالْمُسْتَكْبِرِ الْاَمِيرِكِيّ

     yaʕnī mā fašalū fī ʔinjāzihi wa-taḥqīqihi ʕaskariyyan yurīdūna ʔan yaḏhabū ilayhi bi-t-tajwīʕi wa-l-ḥiṣāri wa-l-ʕuqūbāti, wa-hāḏā daydanu š-šayṭāni l-akbari wa-l-mustakbiri l-amērikiyy

     ...meaning what they had failed to achieve militarily they want to seek by hungering, blockade, and sanctions, and this is the custom of the Greatest Satan and the American tyrant
