The US military, which first dropped bombs, then food, on Afghanistan, has now launched a paper propaganda assault by dropping nearly half a million leaflets to convey a message that the USA was not the enemy, the Pentagon said on Tuesday. This leaflet has a photo of an Afghan man shaking hands with a Western soldier. —REUTERS
