Now Here’s an Ad Campaign!

Near-Naked Women Won’t Be Drafted in Colombian War

Busty, bikini-clad models won’t be air-dropped into Colombia’s combat zones, after all.

The war-torn Andean nation’s first female defense minister, Marta Lucia Ramirez, canceled the army’s campaign to seduce Marxist rebel defectors with pictures of near-naked women.

In the thousands of pocket-sized portraits already printed, and waiting to be air-dropped over battlefields, the voluptuous vixens were presented as a perk for desertion.

“Desert! And obtain benefits,” read one pamphlet, depicting a brunette stretching provocatively in a striped bikini.
