The Bush Administration is quietly resurrecting the idea of a "black propaganda" unit within the Pentagon to spread false stories and information in the foreign media - even in countries the United States considers its allies.

*sigh* Well, if it's true, that's just lovely.

Thanks, props to stevietee on that one. Swipe away if you want it.

And by the way, hello from a former resident of your town, Forest City. I was born in Carbondale and spent the first 10 years of my life on Elk View Drive (I think it's right off 247, but I could be wrong on the road number).

But this news CAME from a foreign country!

Head hurting...

Can't think...

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Yes, hence the "if it's true" bit. ;P

On a happier note, did you ever get yourself a P.O. box?

Not so quietly. It was on the front page of the New York Times yesterday (or maybe the day before).

And here I thought Bush didn't like black people.

Maybe I can go live with my distant cousins in Wales. I hate this administration. I hate it like...a really hated thing.

As I've noted elsewhere...

"According to a report in the New York Times, the idea has been revived because of growing concern that the US is failing to effectively sell itself - especially in Arab and Muslim countries"

Yes, we must effectively sell ourselves as liars and misleaders! That will win over the Muslim people!

All the US needs to do to spread lies and propoganda is make sure CBS is carried in more countries
