Came across this while dealing with linkspam from the author, all of which seems connected. No indication that he or she has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject. All I could find were a few clips of the subject acting as a pundit on arabic news channels like those linked. Fails WP:N, but inappropriate for a CSD and given his previous contributions I felt a PROD was likely to be removed by the creator. So AFD it is Ajbpearce (talk) 09:48, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
