The Truth Shall...Keep You Out Of The US...

U.S. Bars Iraqi Doctor from Delivering Lecture

A leading Iraqi doctor who co-authored a study on Iraq’s death toll since the US invasion has been barred from entering the United States. Riyadh Lafta was set to give a talk at the University of Washington on the growing rise in cancer rates among Iraqi children. U.S. immigration officials ignored Lafta’s visa request a half-dozen times before finally turning him down. Lafta will still make the speech -- he’s been invited to speak at Simon Fraser University in Canada.
