    Shipping calculated at checkout.

    Original U.S. political bumper sticker produced during the Gulf War period by the BOMB SADDAM Committee For A Quick Mideast Peace, Pintlala, Alabama. Addressed to President George H. W. Bush, the sticker condenses empire into a cheerful demand: bomb first, call it peace later.

    Operation: Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm
    Conflict and War: Gulf War
    Year: circa 1990–1991
    Country and Theater: United States
    Language(s): English
    Format: Printed adhesive bumper sticker, single-sided, blank reverse
    Size: 3.5 × 11.9 inches
    Publisher: BOMB SADDAM Committee For A Quick Mideast Peace, Pintlala, Alabama
    Provenance: Acquired from military auction.

    Translation:
    Front: “President Bush, When you are ready to BOMB SADDAM. We’ll support you 100%.”
    Back: Blank reverse.

    Imagery: Front shows oversized blue block lettering reading “BOMB SADDAM” on a yellow ground. Smaller text above addresses President Bush, while the lower line pledges “100%” support. The imprint at the bottom identifies the publisher as the BOMB SADDAM Committee For A Quick Mideast Peace, with “World Headquarters, Pintlala, AL 36043.”

    Objective: Civilian pro-war propaganda. The sticker turns the Gulf War into a blunt consumer slogan, reducing Iraqi and Kuwaiti suffering, U.S. militarism, oil politics, and regional devastation to a cheerful call for bombing. It reflects how American home-front ephemera normalized distant violence as patriotic display.

    Condition: Very good. Original adhesive bumper sticker with bright blue printing on yellow stock, light handling wear, minor creasing, and visible edge wear. Overall clean and sharply legible.

    Exhibited in Khajistan: Office of War Information (O.W.I.) at Pioneer Works, New York, May 09 – Aug 09, 2026.
