Karen, If they had Proof of WMD I guess they wouldn't have to spend $200Million to push propaganda. $200Million is a lot to spend if the proof exists. September 17, 2002 America plans PR blitz on Saddam From Tim Reid in Washington THE Bush Administration is to launch a multimillion-dollar PR blitz against Saddam Hussein, using advertising techniques to persuade crucial target groups that the Iraqi leader must be ousted. The campaign will consist of dossiers of evidence detailing Saddam’s breaches of UN resolutions, and will be launched this week at American and foreign audiences, particularly in Arab nations sceptical of US policy in the region. The White House is aware that it lacks substantial new intelligence on Saddam’s nuclear programme or evidence directly linking Baghdad to the September 11 attacks. But it will build on the contents of President’s Bush’s speech made to the UN General Assembly last week, in which he listed Saddam’s violations of UN resolutions. The campaign, which will initially receive over $200 million (£130 million), will be overseen by the Office of Global Communications, whose existence will not be formally announced until next month. timesonline.co.uk Your Tax Dollars at Work Once the Office of GLobal Communications is up and running the posters here will have more sound bites and an easier way to support GWB's ever changing story.
