The information on its new policy, which SCO hopes will achieve a last minute stay of execution from pending bankruptcy proceedings, also includes details of the new investors behind unXis. These include Gulf Cap Partners, backed by known investor Steven Norris, who has been interested in SCO since early 2008. It is joined by London-based investment company Merchant Bridge, which, according to its website, has up to now primarily been involved in Iraqi companies and banks. According to anti-globalisation observers at Corporate Watch, Merchant Bridge is among the top ten companies to profit from reconstruction work in Iraq.

Good for Merchant Bridge for helping us win the war against tyranny in Iraq, and giving the Iranians enough hope to have their current revolution. I hope for their success in overturning tyranny.

I really don’t get the point in bringing up the ideas of anti-globalization socialists here. If they had had their way, we’d all be peasant farmers oppressed by some king.
