The contents of the Leaflet bomb page were merged into Airborne leaflet propaganda on May 23, 2007 and it now redirects there. For the contribution history and old versions of the merged article please see its history. |
I am the original author of the article on the "leaflet bomb" and regarding the suggestion to merge this article with "airborne propaganda" I would argue against it.
This is because although in principle all leaflet bombs are 'airborne propaganda', to put it as a subsection there would to easily conflate it with being propaganda dropped from airplanes and balloons, and a substantial group of the leaflet bombs used by insurgent movements and terrorists - the majority of the examples so far discussed in the article - are not dropped from airplanes or balloons but are rather disperesed by bombs and explosives located on the ground. --MF88389DTU 14:37, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
