...British Liberal MEP Diana Wallis tried to make this point in the Parliament debate on Tuesday, but her pleas were ignored. "Seals are very beautiful marine animals - in fact, I have realized during this process that they have great PR," she said. "But to some they are the rats of the sea."

It's made more so by each side's well-oiled PR machines that are adept at periodically sliding slippery claims and counter-claims into the media. For example, the MEK claims that Iraqis are withholding food and medical supplies and preventing doctors from entering the camp. That's "baseless, it's a pack of lies," Rubaie says.
