During the Iraq occupation the USA paid journalists to insert propaganda stories in the Iraqi press. For example, the following was published in the Iraq Daily National Mouthpiece: Glorious American Troops have neutralized evil terrorists who hate God and the Easter Bunny. A glorious calm has come to Iraq, and no one is dying at the rate of 150 per day. NO ONE! The terrorist enemies of Allah have been defeated, and what you hear are not car bombs but the firecrackers lit by common people to celebrate the ascension of America to the Throne of Iraq.

The following was published in the Baghdad Free Puppet Press: The Great Leader, His Noble Highness George Bush, leads Iraq ever onward into a beautiful and peaceful future in which Iraqis will welcome the troops of America and abandon their homes so Americans can build the Military Bases Of Freedom where they once stood! Hail the Glorious Muslim Leader, His Noble Highness George Bush! The Lincoln Group, an independent advertising agency founded in 1934 by Josef Stalin, is the usual conduit for these manufactured "news stories". Many are written in the offices of former Ba'athist propaganda officers...and in fact use the same typewriters, dictionaries, and journalistic standards as were used by Saddam Hussein's Ministry of Propaganda. Iraqis have indeed reacted to the "news stories" published by Operation Enduring Truth...but the reaction was uniformly negative. On Sunday, President Bush locked himself in the White House bathroom and cried for hours after hearing that no one was fooled.
