What is this? Isn't our courageous media supposed to be showing us how horrible the U.S. is by displaying pictures of bombed out baby milk factories and old folks' homes? How dare the publish this...propaganda that makes the U.S. look like it actually cares about the women and children of Afghanistan, unlike the ruling Taliban there! [/sarcasm]

On a serious note, does anyone have a close up of what's written on the sides of those food packets we're dropping?

I've seen it several times, but I don't have a link. There are pictures of people eating the food and instructions (in English which doesn't really matter since 85% of the population is illiterate). There's also the usual "recommended daily allowanc" stuff along with an American flag and "A gift of food from the American people".

The close up looks like the child is eating strawberry jam.
To: egarvue
There is also "This is a gift from the American People" stenciled on the outside of these packages. Inside, the packages have the contents described.

"No they dont all "look alike" but they all hate Christians and Jews alike.."birds of a feather..." The US office of propoganda is doing a fine job to keep the oil flowing ..but as O'Reilly pointed out the illiteracy rate there is 70% they have no clue who is feeding them..the Talibon probibly tells them they are..
Hitler was once a sweet looking child too
The US office of propoganda will have to do better than this
BTW none of those children look like they are starving..go to Africa and look you will see what real starvation looks like..these are cute kids selected because they are good propaganda
You can put your fist down now we have all seen it

Just an observation: These people are not in Taliban territory: you can see it in the womens' faces (more accurately: you can
see the womens' faces).
Also, the little girl looks suspiciously clean and cute.
I really hope the pics are authentic, but I have to suspect it's our own propaganda.

Next we need to start dropping shoes. Looks like we need to drop parents. Bring those kids over here. We'll find homes for them.

Ya, I'm sure they've never seen an American flag nor can they speak either. Boo!

This is the best picture I can find of the packaging...

O'Reilly points out there is a 70% illiteracy rate there..they have no clue where this food is comning from... I'm sure most of the adults recognize the US colors in the package markings from the Taliban's anti-American propaganda.

The US office of propaganda better figure out what it is going to say to the American public when our troops come home to tell us that these sweet faced babies were shooting at um
