NYT ad: Iran war to boost Bush approval

Raw Story
Apr. 01, 2006

In a full page advertisement to appear in the New York Times Op-Ed section, a group is claiming that President George W. Bush hopes that war with Iran will boost his job approval.

The ad, placed by Velvet Revolution, already appeared once in the Washington Post. This marks its first appearance in the Times.

In it, the group quotes a Seymour Hersh claim that war with Iran is already considered an inevitability among those close to the current administration. It also features a chart indicating boosts to the President's job approval rating at the times of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars (although it places the Afghanistan invasion at his highest point of popularity, notably omitting 9/11,) insisting that Bush is "hell bent on becoming our first Three War President."
