The Brilliant Bahrami

There's a surprising sparsity of Bahrami videos in the internet. This one was taken at the 2007 Alex Tennis Classics in Eindhoven. Elthing and Haarius (previous Wimbledon winners) are playing against Bahrami and Siemerink. Comedy + Sport = Greatness.

Battle for Haditha

The trailer for British documentary director Nick Broomfield's Battle for Haditha, a dramatisation of real events which took place in Haditha, Iraq. The film focuses on the preliminary and aftermath of an IED which killed an American troop and injured another. The IED was planted by Al Qaeda and lead to the massacre of 24 Iraqi civilians by US Marine Corps troops.
