It is very surprising that the documentary ‘The September Issue’ was not referenced. It focused a great deal on your subject in many aspects.

Remarks from an international investigative researcher living in the United states. I am absolutely shocked the times radio would be discussing anything about this woman anna. She is a personal friend of the wife of the president of Syria and new sources for the past 2 months have stated he and his family have fled to Russia because of problems going on internationally. The syrians hate Israel so do you get what I'm pointing at. I read the fashion spread that Anna did on the wife of the president of Syria and it was several years ago and Anna is a flaming liberal who is associating with people who hate Israel so I don't think much of her as an editor or anything else because there's more to life than fashion. I listen to times radio because of your discussions regarding Israel in my research but I couldn't believe this interview that you're having with such a despicable woman in view of everything that's going on in the world. You aren't going to need any more fashion when we get into world war III I will never listen to you again.
