Pakistan’s Dismal Public Relations Campaign in the U.S. and it’s Affects

In this episode of the Truth Serum: Two weeks after Admiral Mullen’s allegations against Pakistan new evidence has emerged that the United States was also in contact with the group. They were accusing Pakistan of contacts with the Haqqani network while being complicit of direct contacts with the group themselves. In searching for an exit strategy the United States is looking for a scapegoat and Pakistan in many ways seems to fit the bill. Why is the Pakistani public relations campaign so poor? Why didn’t they call Mullen’s bluff right away. Pakistan’s response to the allegations was uncoordinated, weak and ineffective. Pakistan’s lobbying efforts, their PR campaign and their relationship with the United States is at an all-time low, the divide in the public perception of the other nation continues to widen and yet they need each other to win the war against terror. A new envoy, somebody with stature and credibility needs to be placed in charge of the relationship. Truth Serum reports.

While the theories have been proven dead wrong by hard evidence and science, they were on to something when they questioned the U.S.’s use of the attacks to promote illegal wars in the Middle East – Too bad most Americans won’t listen to that last part.
