New WHO Erroneous Peer-Reviewed US-Egyptian Expert Report Cites Pirated Version of Wikipedia...
Ain’t our April Fool’s Day Joke though it looks like it has become a game (see critique of first report HERE). So, enter the dance and play.
Read this “new” 84-page peer-reviewed US-Egyptian expert report and try to find the errors. The rule is that you must find at least one error on each page.
WHO-EMRO (World Health Organisation - Eastern Mediterranean Regional Office) and ESPRI (Egyptian Smoking Prevention Research Institute). Shisha Hazards Profile “Tobacco Use in Shisha - Studies on Waterpipe Smoking in Egypt”. Cairo, 14 March 2007. ISBN: 978-92-9021-569-1. 84 pages.
We won’t reward you with the same fees these official experts were paid for this job but you can win with us a recently published rare Book on Hookah Smoking
And if you can read Arabic, and are fond of poetry, have a look at praises of this report : WHO Regional Director's Message and Message from WHO Regional Adviser, Tobacco Free Initiative
[Added later: The Mystique of Hookahs. Health and Religious Misconceptions. SciTopics 2010]
READ ABOVE ALL: Powerful Reaction Letter to Margaret Chan, the Newly-Elected Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO)
Hey, you hookah users, individuals and independent researchers (vis a vis the Tobacco Industry (cigarettes), the Pharmaceutical Industry (nicotine patches and gum), and the fanatic section of the international Tobacco Control Public Health movement), remember one sole thing:
You, yes you, and nobody else but you, are the real experts !
Breaking NEWS... Breaking NEWS... Breaking NEWS... Breaking NEWS...
Read Last COMMUNIQUE about Hookah Bars, Hookah Bans and Pseudo-Science
“One Hookah Would Equal 200 Cigarettes and (European) “Colonialism” (sic)(*) Would Now Be the Cause of the Hookah (Shisha, Narghile) Catastrophe ?”
(*) and why not Eau-de-Cologne...alism to make it smarter ?
The author wonders whether “these “experts”, apparently called in emergency by ASH (Action on Smoking and Health) to help it enforce a ban on “Shisha Lounges” in the United Kingdom”, do not actually “Defend, Instead, a New form of "Imperialism" (If we May Use a Phraseology Similar to that of These Experts...) Aiming at Endorsing the Bush Neo-Conservative ““Great” Middle East” “Vision” in the field of Public Health”…
He concludes that “these “experts” are actually 200 times more dangerous than hookahs because they would be dangerous for science and, beyond, for public health.” (Apr. 25, 2007)

FORCES International (“Powered by reason, driven by passion”): A fascinating site we got to know accidentally and only recently although these people are drawing, in the field of research on cigarette smoking, very similar conclusions (about WHO reports, its lack of independence, etc.) to ours in the field of hookah smoking. For those who want to know the propaganda for the whole world business...

Hey! I'm a journalism student at Northwestern University and I'm writing an opinion piece about hookah for my final project. I'm looking for a variety of opinions of people who are knowledgable about the topic. I found your blog online and I was hoping you might be able to help me out by answering a few questions. I'd really appreciate any help you could give me!!! Please email me at r-johnson@northwestern.edu if you'd be interested. Thanks!!! -Robin
The report is really good but need more decsription on what is the function of WHO Erroneous Peer-Reviewed is all about?
Official “Experts” who were appointed by WHO (the World Health Organization) to prepare reports on hookah (narghile, shisha, “waterpipe”™) smoking could not distinguish between a burning and a heating process (1st Erroneous Report), between smoking products (2nd Erroneous Report) and even between hookah and cigarette smoke (American Lung Association Erroneous Report)...
And you call this "good" science ? Let's call a cat a cat. This is junk science and a shame for the World Health Organization.
