American TV to Iraq

Just watched an entertaining piece about US efforts to present themselves to the Iraqis by rebroadcasting American news programming locally with Arabic voiceovers. The Guardian had a similar story this morning. Although ironically, ABC was showing an interview with The Dixie Chicks over their comments about the war and their feelings about Bush. (Incidentally, their fight back has extending to appearing nude with slogans on their body)
I really can’t see this working.
