Zaha Hadid's graphic gaffe is threatening to tear the war-riven island of Cyprus in two. More in two than it already is. Seems she pasted the wrong flag into the background of a rendering of her natty natatorium for the London 2012 Olympics. A flag that only the Turkish oppressors recognize. Greek Cypriots are pissed. Like for real. Good thing they've just given her a job. So, yeah, international relations. And stuff. It's a clusterfuck.
