Pointing to Stability, Kurds in Iraq Lure Investors

New York Times:
The Kurdistan government has placed special emphasis on attracting investors from the United States and Britain, unleashing a slick advertising campaign in English called “The Other Iraq,” which includes television commercials featuring romantic shots of Kurdistan’s mountains and waving, cherubic children. “It’s spectacular, it’s joyful,” intones a narrator in one 30-second spot. “It’s not a dream. It’s the other Iraq.” ...There is even talk of a Burger King franchise ...

Do you think they will serve "the other white meat"?
Long may they flourish.
