America's Government Promotes Peace and Security... With Google AdSense




Googling for information on national security? Don't be surprised if one of the paid links that pops up directs you to a page that is "telling America's story." Someone thought an awesome way to spend advertising dollars (apparently, the government has a marketing budget) was by sending searchers presumably googling terms like "peace" or "security risk" to a page on www.america.gov regarding America's foreign policy, including issues in places like the Middle East and Syria. Because nothing says "creating security through improved relations and cooperation" like the situation in Iraq.
