Jessica Lynch book due out on Veteran's Day (no comment)

Next week a book is out from the Iraqi attorney who "led" the way to the "rescue" of Lynch. Be prepared for weeks of the most disgusting displays of propaganda that you are ever likely to see/hear.

I HIGHLY recommend a listen to today's Democracy Now! which discusses the role of the media and psyops as well as the use of "public relations firms" aka political consultant firms. Remember Victoria Clarke??

A Lieutenant Colonel Sam Gardiner (sp?) has just issued a report about this. Apparently a conference was held in London (The Rendon Group - think Gulf I travesty and the "babies thrown out of the incubator" story that led to that "war")to discuss the role of better propagandizing the next war and a new policy called "adverserial decision making".

Rendon Group has a contract with the Office of Strategic Influence (which Rumsfeld said he knew nothing about and was "done away with")

In all fairness, a chimp could have predicted this crap coming. Not THE chimp, he couldn't predict his own heartbeat. Notice it comes just as the teevee is starting to hype Jessica's movie? But anyway...here is one of the first editorial cartoons I published on my site...

PR Specialist of Debunked Persian Gulf War Incubator Story Promotes New Book on Lynch Rescue

<clips>

“Expect lots of media hype soon over the first Jessica Lynch-related book by Iraqi Mohammed Odeh al-Rehaief. According to some reports he told U.S. Marines the location of the captured Private Lynch. He and his family were then granted U.S. asylum. Along with the chance for U.S. citizenship, al-Rehaief received $300,000 from Rupert Murdoch's Harper Collins for his new book about the Lynch rescue. He also was given a job at the Livingston Group, a high-powered D.C. lobby firm. His book "Because Each Life Is Precious: Why an Iraqi Man Came to Risk Everything for Pvt. Jessica Lynch" is being promoted by his Livingston Group colleague Lauri Fitz-Pegado. She is infamous for her work at Hill & Knowlton PR in 1990 coaching the Kuwaiti girl called "Nayirah" in her shocking but phony testimony on Congressional hill that she'd seen Iraqi soldiers murdering Kuwaiti babies. That stunt helped propel the U.S. to war against Iraq in 1991. Fitz-Pegado's client was the ruling family of Kuwait and the baby-killing claims were later shown to be false. The new book is well timed since it will precede by a few weeks Jessica Lynch's own book, half-a-million copies of which will hit bookstores on Veterans Day, November 11th.”

NBC I think (maybe ABC I was channel surfing). I could hardly sit through that, I can't imagine how awful the movie will be.

So THAT'S how they got her to shut her mouth. Bribery, lots of $$$$$ for a book. Surprise...surprise. Some day she will no longer be able to keep her secret and she will tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth......after the shrub is out of office and she doesn't feel threatened.

She was the one that, not only coached the young Kuwaiti woman to say that Saddam had murdered babies, she was also doing point-work for the Dept. of Information Svcs (attached to white house) on the Lynch story.
