Genet Tadesse – DR. MOUSSA IBRAHIM, OCTOBER 1, 2011

Broadcaster: “With us on the on the line is Dr. Moussa Ibrahim, the official spokesman for the Libyan Government. Doctor, I want to begin by saying Thank God for your safety.

Do you think it is an attempt to slander and muddy the image of the resistance and jihadi fighters like yourself?”

The crime of making Americans aware of their own history

Their schools and their favorite media have done an excellent job of keeping them ignorant of what their favorite country has done to the rest of the world, but lately some discomforting points of view have managed to find their way into this well-defended American consciousness.
