The Michelle Obama tapes has caused many people to have sleepless nights. Most of them used there time to get adverts in API site which was then hosted by Wordpress.com. The enemies managed to fool wordpress and got their way by wordpress' reaction closing us down. Now that we have passed that stage, we want to assure the readers that the tapes will see the light. It has been a rough road but one that we will not fail to work to the end.
All readers know what happened those days. Due to the developing events caused by those who have managed to infiltrate API and the high tech interference by parties who are working hard to stop the airing of the tape, I had an urgent telephone conference meeting with counsel on the 13th of November who has approved the following text for publishing so that the readers were made aware of the situation in order to understand and appreciate what we were going through.
—————– Here below is the text approved by Counsel .—————
“I spoke with our counsel, who drafted and signed the MBO contract on our behalf, and he advised me that, in his opinion, both parties to the contract are respecting both the intent and the letter of the contract. He reminded me that the terms and conditions of the contract are and will remain confidential and that the name of the MBO will be known only when it announces the airing or airs the cassettes. API will not publish any information on the airing times and details until authorized to do so by the other party to the contract. MBO will be the first to announce the airing of the tapes. The only thing API can say, have said and will say is that it has entered a contract with a MBO.
Counsel is of the opinion that the decision as to the actual date and time of the airing should be left to the MBO, since API’s legal rights are fully protected. This contract was entered in good faith by both parties. Basically, the MBO is the one who will decide, in good faith, the actual broadcasting dates and postpone them, if required, in keeping with the spirit and letter of the contract.”(approved by counsel, name withheld at counsel’s request)
————————
Due to the circumstances of the day it became necessary to have an additional paragraph to the main contract, whereby API’s Counsel opend for MBO to be able to come with a surprise announcement as concerns the actual date and time of airing of the tape in order to avoid the infiltrators from succeeding in their pressure on the MBO aimed at cancellation of the tape broadcast. The additional paragraph to the contract by API counsel states:
“Basically, the MBO is the one who will decide, in good faith, the actual broadcasting dates and postpone them, if required, in keeping with the spirit and letter of the contract.” (approved by counsel, name withheld at counsel’s request.”
The above change is meant to enable the MBO to decide the date within the framework of the main contract, specifically in accordance with already agreed time schedules. If MBO decides to postpone the airing dates other than follow any specified dates, API must be consulted by Counsel immediately and given the opportunity to agree or reject any proposed postponement by MBO.
We can confirm that the infiltrators have succeeded in getting inside information on the tape and the Imam document, but have not yet succeeded in stopping the airing of the tape as yet.
We hope that the readers will get the point - if supportive of API’s intentions to have the tape out, will understand why this kind of action had to be taken immediately in order to avoid a repeat of what happened between Fox News Network and API’s agreement on the airing of the tape before the Presidential elections on the 4th of November.
Now that the release seems to be around the corner, Counsel will come with an update if required.
