Israel "rebuilding" Iraq

I was doing some research on the private contractors in Iraq and i came across this blunt statement in one of the official report issued by the Congressional Research Service:


"Israeli firms, however, are eligible to participate in Iraq reconstruction programs as sub-contractors;" it added "reportedly, some are currently acting as sub-contractors in communications, water, security, and agriculture programs."


I wonder why "conspiracy theory" is widely believed in the Arab world ??

Barking in Columbia!

I thought he was already flushed down in history as one of the ignorant hate-mongers ... yet, it seems there are people who are still enjoying his idiocy!

His film was not even carrying a good argument, poorly produced and not professional to the extreme that a clip by a 9-years-old kid can get more views on you-tube than this.

I will not mention his name, nor that of the film .. it would only be giving him more search results on google .. we need just to sweep him under the carpet

The point of bringing this up here is that he is reappearing this week in Columbia University, and what is more strange is the language used in the flyers marketing the event. First i thought it was a counter campaign, yet when reading the names of sponsors at bottom of flyer it all came clear .. Cheap campaign by a cheap right wing group. I have to admit, though, that the flyers were creative enough to make it pointless to run a counter campaign with "Wanted" on banners.

... Attention to a dog might make it feel like a lion
