				Lots of people still don't have the internet, or are news junkies like most of us are.
 
 
I know from past experiences, that people are interested in what our Troops are doing, but just don't know where to find the information.
 
 
I want to come up with some short articles, quotes and one liners for a newsletter along with website addresses.  Something with information from the various websites. "Defend America",   Alsabaah online newspaper, etc, and of course Swift Vets and POWs for Truth.
 
 
I think I can get them printed up for about 8 cents a page, front and back.  I intend to hand them out at street corners and leave some at various small business stores.  
 
 
One liners from the "Love our Troops" video:
 
Over 4.5 million Iraqi citizens have clean water for the first time in Iraq.
 
100% of hospitals are open, campared to 35% before the war.
 
400,000 Iraqi children have up to day immunization shots.
 
Textbooks don't mention Saddam for the first time in 30 years.
 
School attendance is up 80% since as compared to before the war.
 
400,000 people have telephones for the first time ever.
 
 
Anyone want to help me compose this? 
 
 What are the most important short articles I could include that the MSM doesn't cover?
 
 
Do you think this would be a good idea? |
