Iraqi's Thank America (Wow, this is moving!)
The Other Iraq ^ | 11/08/2005 | Iraqi Kurds

Posted on 11/08/2005 4:38:47 PM PST by Impeach98

"THANK YOU AMERICA"
I have the very good fortune to be working for a PR company hired by the Iraqi Kurds to help promote a media campaign that begins on Wednesday, November 9, 2005 here in the United States.

Tomorrow is the launch of a TV ad campaign where the Iraqi Kurds say "Thank You" to America for liberating them from the oppressive regime of Saddam Hussein. Please watch the ads and post your thoughts.

"Thank You America" is the first of 3 ads that will run in the United States (beginning on Fox News Channel) and then thanking British and American troops in Europe and the Middle East.

[...this group of people (the Kurds) were expressly hated by Saddam. He used poison gas on them and killed thousands of them in one day...]

See post #200 for possible explanation.

Wow! I didn't know that. No wonder Saddam hated them.

Don't know how on top of Scripture you are, but the Old Testament talks about the Babylon captivity. These Kurds may have been the descendants of Daniel.

The Kurds get it and they're worth defending.

They'd like to be their own country, but if that's not possible, to at least have decent proportional representation in a united Iraq.

Great idea, this publicity for the Kurds. The more, the better. It will foil any Lib plot to sell them down the river.

Those pictures are what this is all about: People helping a country which has been crushed under a tyrant's boot for generations. Who could possibly think this is wrong? Who is that crazy? Elitist, racist Liberals and the MSM.

Thanks to all who pinged me.

I did see the ads and love them. I will not see them on the alphabets since I do not watch TV, so am grateful they were available here.

Apologies to those that originally pinged me. I was involved in the elections at that time, with little to NO time for anything else.
