Remember the guy with the "Jews must wear badges in Iran" story?

He was invited to the White House!

Iran Bamboozler Invited to White House as "Expert"
By Paul Kiel - May 31, 2006, 11:35 AM

Two weeks ago, Amir Taheri published an op-ed in Canada's National Post about an Iranian law that forced Jews to wear a yellow stripe. The story, reminiscent of Nazi Germany, quickly provoked outrage, but was just as quickly revealed to be a total fabrication. It also ran in the New York Post.

Apparently this is just the sort of reliable advice that President Bush needs. Yesterday, Taheri had a face-to-face with the President as one of a small group of "experts" on Iraq that visited the White House.

According to Press Secretary Tony Snow, the experts were invited to the White House for their "honest opinions" on Iraq.

5. **Please sign this petition against military actin against Iran**

It is with grave concern that I observe the growing threat of a new U.S. war--this time against the people of Iran.

For a collection of articles and resources on this subject you can visit this link: http://reseaudesign.com/research/iran/iran_summery.html

I'm starting up a petition which I will be sending out to as many members of Congress as possible. I'm asking for help to get this signed by as many people, possible in the next month. Send it to as many people you can.

6. Anyone remember the "Amadinejad was hostage-taker" story?

Right when he got elected? It was another quick hit-and-run story with no basis in reality. That's how these psy-ops stories seem to work. Front page story, back page retraction.

Really--look at these two pictures...



Clearly not the same guy.
