Report em to Spamhaus.
Seriously, I'm surprised Aravosis hasn't gotten one of those sooner. Jesus' General got one over a year ago.

US paying Iraqi newspapers to print stupid, feel-good articles about painting schools, planting trees, etc.? When they were caught, the entire discussion in the newspapers was about whether or not it's proper to push propaganda in Iraq.
They missed the whole point, and this sloppy sales pitch to America Blog highlights the reality of the situation. The propaganda is meant for *domestic* consumption. This is fucking bullshit. This is not news- it's propaganda.

6. Link icons as a word doc? |

So what, you have to open the doc, make sure it's zoomed to 100%, take a screenshot, paste it into an image editor, crop it down to the icon you want to use, then save it as a GIF? Sounds like a lot of work. They couldn't just send a .zip file with the images ready to go? Add "promoting a web site" to the long list of things the military can't do.
Oh yeah, almost forgot. Fuck their propaganda.
