Nope. Afghan is the people, Afghani is the currency.

E: Though technically Afghan only refers to one ethnic group, the Pashtuns. The other ethnic groups in Afghanistan would not necessarily consider themselves Afghans.

Arab is the people, Arabic is the language. Persians are Iranians.

The country is pronounced Ih-rahn, the adjective is pronounced Eye-rain-ian.

I know it's a minor quibble but I got so loving annoyed by him calling Afghans "Afghanis". I was disappointed but not surprised when Jon Stewart did it...But Oliver? drat, man.

Would Afghanistanis have been better?

If you do, I suggest you make it into several videos by the segments it can reasonably be broken into (defense speaking, prosecution speaking, etc) and put it in a Citizens United Puppy Court playlist, for people who want to watch it in 10-15 minute chunks.

Yes, though.

3. You have not for a second demonstrated here why

4. I love the way that you equate "state" with "bureaucracy". Is that how you really feel about the state
I'm somewhat surprised he didn't mention Dr Lustig and his experience and research when it comes to the negative effects of sugar consumption. If you have no idea what I'm talking about : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM

Lustig isn't well-regarded by everyone. Also think it's dumb to have him be the only person to interview on the subject.
