guess where Elizabeth Cheney has turned up - Dubai

Inside the US's regime-change school

Once in Dubai, Nilofar was booked by one of two organizations running the program into the Holiday Inn. She recounts that the course organizers were a mixture of Los Angeles-based exiled Iranians, Americans who appeared to supervise the course and whose affiliation remained unclear throughout, and three Serbs who said they belonged to the Otpor democratic movement that overthrew the late Serbian president Slobodan Milosevic in 2000.

The highly secretive nature of the workshops meant that they were misleadingly advertised in the lobby of the hotel as a conference by the "Griffin Hospital". The organizers, instructors and students identified themselves through aliases and were instructed to communicate with one another after the course was over through Hushmail accounts, an encrypted e-mail service that claims to be hack-proof.

Last week, State Department deputy spokesman Adam Ereli announced that a newly established Office of Iranian Affairs within the department would focus on introducing democracy in Iran. The top officials behind the new policy are said to be Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Nicholas Burns, Elizabeth Cheney (Vice President Dick Cheney's daughter), Scott Carpenter and David Denehy, in addition to the secretary of state herself, Condoleezza Rice.

Composed of up to 15 Farsi-speaking officers spread across US diplomatic posts neighboring Iran and in European capitals with large Iranian communities, the office would aim to develop Iran experts whose "primary language would be Farsi", Ereli said.

1. it's amazing to consider how arrogant these power mongers are
and how they feel so entitled to barter the future of the USA away. They've been doing it for 4 years or more now and they are really entitled ....

3. Thanks for keeping us posted on this story, Donsu.
I agree with another poster: the breathtaking arrogance of these 'leaders'. What is Cheney's track record? I know she has a law degree, but I'm wondering about how capable she is. (if she's anything like her dad, the whole thing will fail).

I just have this suspicion that this whole project will fail. If she's anything like her dad (greedy & corrupt), she'll funnel about half the $85 million to her checking account.

First of all, muslims don't like dealing with women. Cheney is probably spoiled, rich, and short-sighted. So the rebels will take bribery money from Cheney, but they might double-cross her, especially if she's arrogant with them.
