MEMRI and Arab intellectuals
This is very funny. When MEMRI sends a bulletin of some article by some obscure writer who wrote something that fits into the Zionist agenda, they always go out of their way to make that writer more important than he/she is, and they always don't provide further information on that person. Today, I saw one bulletin from MEMRI about what some "Palestinian intellectual" has written. I knew what to expect. The person in question, Ahmad Abu Mater, as the bulletin does not tell you: was in fact a senior leader in Fath-Revolutionary Council: Abu Nidal's organization for potato's sake. He later moved to Olso where he became active in Saudi propaganda.
