Weapons of Mass Destruction?

The U.S. Fronts for One of the Greatest Purveyors of WOMD:
BIG TOBACCO

Big Tobacco gave Bush and his republican cronies over $7 million during the last election cycle. Now the Bush Administration is working hard to sabotage the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control. If the U.S. succeeds, transnational tobacco companies like Philip Morris will be given free reign to kill millions more people around the world. DON'T LET THE U.S. HIJACK THE WORLD'S 1st PUBLIC HEALTH TREATY!

The World Health Organization projects that tobacco will kill over 10 million people annually - 70% in low-income countries -- by 2025. This is the equivalent of 95 jet planes crashing EACH & EVERY DAY! It's time for the world's richest country to step aside and let the poorest countries of the world protect their citizens from predatory tobacco companies!
