    Particularly of interest:

    Hill & Knowlton

    In 1990, after being approached by a Kuwaiti expatriate in New York, Hill & Knowlton took on “Citizens for a Free Kuwait.”[38] The objective of the national campaign was to raise awareness in the United States about the dangers posed by Iraqi dictator, Saddam Hussein to Kuwait.[38]

    Hill & Knowlton conducted a $1 million study to determine the best way to win support for strong action. H & K had the Wirthington Group conduct focus groups to determine the best strategy that would influence public opinion. The study found that an emphasis on atrocities, particularly the incubator story, was the most effective.

    Hill & Knowlton is estimated to have been given as much as $12 million by the Kuwaitis for their public relations campaign.

    It is unclear how much of Nayirah’s testimony was coached. Though the firm was supposed to provide only stylistic help, it was reported that H&K “provided witnesses, wrote testimony, and coached the witnesses for effectiveness.”

    What…..the excuses given for going to war in Iraq were based on LIES !!!!!

    Next you’ll be telling us that Tony Blair’s dossier was dodgy

    ffs

    Exactly, the precedent has been set time and again; why should we immediately accept the information presented without question?

    In your case the question is why do you have to doubt every bit of information given to you[ except the bits that agree with your already held beliefs conspiracy bits obviously]

    TBH the rest of us are able to work out which bits are truth and which bits are BS

    We can do this whether it comes from you or the state sponsored media that drips feeds us lies that we cannot open our eyes to etc

    That said, there is reason to question just how authentic these videos are…

    You could pop over and introduce yourself. You’d find out first hand.

    Sad news indeed. I thought the interview given by the convoy leader was very moving inckuding how he tried to get Henning released. ISIS released the Muslim hostages from the convoy but held Henning, they knew all along what they intended to do

    As for the Iraq invasion there is no need for a conspiracy theory. Bush termed Iraq as a member of an “Axis of Evil” it was his attention to take action. Bush needed no conspiracy theory he just used the implication of Iraq being associated with 9/11

    Haven’t watched the Brant video either he’s very irritating, however it would seem more sensible to stop the Saudis and whoever else funding these religious armies rather than continually mucking around at the dirty end no great effect.
