Global Security Newswire
WASHINGTON — Beginning Sunday, the Partnership for a Secure America, a bipartisan group of government and foreign policy veterans, will start airing a television commercial in major cities to raise awareness about the threat of nuclear terrorism (see GSN, March 7, 2005).
A girl and her mother are window shopping on a city street. As the camera focuses in on a little girl’s eyes, the colors on the screen shift to reds and yellows. Zooming into to the blackness of one of her pupils, the image in the commercial abruptly shifts to a mushroom cloud. The similarities to Lyndon Johnson’s infamous 1964 presidential campaign ad, in which a small girl picks flower petals before apparently being annihilated, are not subtle, and they were not accidental.

It is part of a push by the bipartisan group to highlight five foreign policy and national security issues during the 2008 presidential election proces
