An iraqi traitor more likely and a coward .

Reader comment on item: Pipes criticises Middle East leaders
in response to reader comment: Mithal al-Alusi - an Iraqi Hero?

when He attacked the iraqi embassy and sold important documents to a western power that was not seen well by iraqis but they despised him for it .

there are more priorities in iraq right now than visiting israel . Plus he should have checked with parliament before making his decision , because iraq has no relations with israel and its constitution still sees israel as an enemy country .

can you imagine an israeli official visiting damascus (not talking about Mossad ) or Tehran ? or a US official visiting Cuba or Tehran ? it is the same thing .
