It’s All An American-Israeli Conspiracy.. Says The Professor.

Sudan:

the referendum is a sham. This is one of the most illiterate areas in the world. The US creates an artificial mark for voter turnout level as a criterion, and then the US spends lavishly on a PR campaign in favor of the secession. I mean, this is all cooked up by the US

Tunisia:

Tunisians have picked up tear gas cans with Hebrew writing identifying them from Israel

Whenever people I know bring up the theory that the Americans and Israelis are conspiring to bring Arabs down (and they’re many), I always respond: What are they threatened by? Arabs have the worse human development indicators in the entire world, we have the least contributions to science and technology and we read the least amount of books. Why would the Americans spend so much energy scheming to bring us down when we are our own worst enemy?
