Dr. George Irani Appears on "The Road to the White house"

Dr. George Irani, AUK Associate Professor of International Relations, appeared on Kuwait TV's "The Road to the White house". This is a weekly show, hosted by Dr. Abdullah Shayji, that looks closely at the US presidential elections. During his talk, Irani analysed the effects of the September 2012 political events on the flow of the the US presidential elections. Accoding to Irani, the anti-Islam movie and the outrage it triggered in the Middle East during the 9/11 anniversary is a demonstraition of US policy faliure in the Arab world. Irani also stated that the Obama admistration failed to connect with the Arab and Muslim World. But this, in his opnion, will not have a signigicant effect on the US internal political situation or on the presidential campaign.
