Propaganda from Iraq
From here comes a pic of one piece of the propaganda leaflets we were dropping before the war began. Would someone translate the writing, please? The guy from whom I brazenly lifted it describes it as being roughly the size of Iraqi money.
ThanQ! Nick, I hope you don't mind but this is just too fascinating.

My Arabic is kinda rusty… but I managed to figure it out with some help from this nifty translation page:

This is what the leaflet says:
“Think about your family. Do something that will keep you alive.”
“Before attacking allied aircraft, think about the consequences”.
Pretty lame propaganda if you ask me, particularly when compared to the daily ramblings of Mohammad Saeed As-Sahhaf!!!
