Robert Fisk is the Chief Middle East Correspondent for the London Independent and author of the book “The Great War for Civilisation: The Conquest of the Middle East.” He has reported from across the Arab world for the past thirty years. He was in Iraq in the 1980s during the Iran-Iraq war, in the early 1990s during the Persian Gulf War and most recently during the U.S. invasion and occupation.
This past weekend Robert Fisk was invited to deliver the keynote address before hundreds of Muslim Americans gathered in Long Beach, California for the sixth annual convention of the Muslim Public Affairs Council. At the convention, Fisk – who was the keynote speaker – participated in a roundtable discussion on the Iraq Study Group’s implications. He took to the podium with a copy of the report in his hand.
I’ve updated this post with the video footage of this report. Robert Fisk’s speech starts exactly 20 minutes into the clip. This is important viewing for anyone interested in the subject!
IMHO Robert Fisk is one of the best western reporters covering Iraq, sorry, one of the best western reporters, period.
