Iranian Badge Story Follow Up
Who are you going to call to plant false stories for your propaganda campaigns - Benador Associates, the famous GOP, pro-war, pro-neocon PR firm.
It turns out they are behind the false story of Iran requiring non-Muslims to wear distinctive badges. The story ran with a picture of a Jewish couple from the Nazi era wearing the yellow stars all Jews were made to wear in some countries. It also turns out that the conservative Jewish organization Simon Wiesenthal Center advocating regime change and attacks on Iran was instrumental in keeping the story going. Aaron Breitbart, a senior researcher at the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles, gets caught in some obvious lies. I don't know the relationship of Aaron to Breitbart.com, a news media server farm that Drudge Report keeps busy. Just the usual Vast Right Wing Media Conspiracy. All of this supporting a war the Bush/Cheney administration wants with Iran. Two years ago Iran offered serious talks with the US but talks aren't on the neo-con agenda.
