[0:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=5) And you played a role in political propaganda.

[0:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=8) How? Give me a practical example. An example, meaning...

[0:12](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=12) Distribute a leaflet saying the Iraqi army holds parties and people bring their wives and dance, all lies.

[0:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=22) I do a report on it, though it is a lie, to tarnish Saddam's army, even though I know one hundred percent that this leaflet is a lie.

[0:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=33) That's propaganda. It needs a liar who knows how to lie. I mean, it's all, all rumors that I embrace as facts.

[0:41](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=41) Any rumor you hear, if it is, of course, nega— I use it, I use it.

[0:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=44) If it is negative— Negative toward— I focus on it.

[0:46](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=46) Saddam Hussein and Iraq, I use it. I practiced political propaganda with every ounce of strength I had, with lots of fanfare.

[0:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=54) And, and, did you succeed at it? Yes. What Ahmed Said did in '67 with political propaganda— the clever kind— Dawood Al-Shiryan did in the Kuwait War, during the invasion of Kuwait?

[1:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=63) Yes, I am his student. I learned from him.

[1:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=67) I didn't learn from Goebbels, I learned from him.

[1:12](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=72) That's why I called it an experiment. We're talking about ourselves now.

[1:15](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=75) Professionalism. Political propaganda gave rise to all those things.

[1:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/9LQlnkVBV1bk/en/dawood-al-shirian-on-political-propaganda-during-the-kuwait-invasion?t=79) To endure, you have to take Ahmed Saeed's case and devote yourself to studying and examining it until it becomes a rule.
