This video shows what happens, in the United States, when all political expression is banned for the convenience of occupying armies. It is an unbelievable scene of U.S. military and spy agencies shamelessly recruiting Arab-Americans, in broad daylight, with the full permission of Arab-American festival organizers.
You will see video of a major Arab-American festival, held in June 2008, as millions of Arabs are killed in Iraq, and millions of Muslims are killed in Afghanistan, the victims of U.S. military invasion and occupation.
To protect U.S. military and FBI recruiters from any sign of political dissent, police stood ready to arrest anyone who was seen, by festival organizers, engaging in "political solicitation".
The festival organizers laid down these draconian rules on their Web site, at http://www.americanarab.com/festival , under the heading of Download the vendor application
