The case of Dr. Rachel Ehrenfeld and her fight against “libel tourism,” which we have covered extensively here at Hot Air, has been turned into an 8-minute film by the Motion Picture Institute. The film is short but dense with detail, including a couple of twists that we haven’t covered here yet. The juiciest of those is about 6 minutes in.
There is more info and an Arabic version of the film at its official website.

For the first and probably only time ever, I wish the ACLU good hunting…

Agree. If this was what the ACLU did best, its image wouldn’t be sitting in the sub-cellar.
I suggest everyone send this video out to as many people as possible. I looked and there are only 216 views so far.

God save us when lawyers are our last line of defense.

Is anybody else bothered by the fact that they outed this guy. Sure her is a scumbag but that is a really sleazy tactic.
That being said i wish them luck in their suit.

There are no sleazy tactics when you’re dealing with Saudis, because with Saudis, there are no honorable tactics.
And if you had the slightest clue how many Saudi men have boyfriends, the concept of “outing” a Saudi would make you choke with laughter.

ditto here.

Bush’s pals the King and his family. As far as the British Court ruling on a matter that was never been a part of Great Briton…they can shove it and the World Court.

Very disturbing…, yet very promising. Glad to see that the American courts are involved. I’m curious as to whether the ACLU will prove beneficial or detrimental.

Thanks, Bryan.
Man, if or when oil loses the power it has now… there is an ocean of schadenfreude for the Arabs.
