Politically
incorrect, uncompromising and coherent, crystal-clear in its intellectual and
moral stands - and scientifically documented to the extreme - FORCES
International has a unique identity and political positions that make it the
most visited site on smoking matters in the world. Vivid and dynamic, our site
is visited by millions of friends and foes each year. As it is also
multilingual, it represents an ideal place for advertisement, and it literally
offers a world-wide, multi-cultural exposure.
Send your
banner, tell us where you want it, and we will do our best to accommodate your
needs.

ethics policy
FORCES
International (FORCES, Inc. - hereinafter FORCES) will advertise any legal
product and service on its websites and newsletters – including tobacco-related
products and services – with the following exceptions:
-
Smoking
cessation services and devices.
-
Quit-smoking
ads and programs of any nature.
-
Antismoking,
anti-alcohol, food control – and any other prohibition-oriented product, service and/or
organization that advocates them directly or indirectly.
-
Products and
services related to sex and pornography.
-
Products and
services related in any way to racism, sexism and/or other forms of social
discrimination and exploitation.
FORCES also
reserves to refuse what, in FORCES’ indisputable judgement, is considered damaging to human dignity
and personal choice.
Finally, would
FORCES become aware of discriminating policies implemented against smoking
employees by patrons that are already advertising on its publications (example:
firing of smokers who smoke in their own time), or would FORCES discover that
the patrons finance, support or facilitate antitobacco, FORCES will immediately
terminate the advertisement of the product(s) and/or service(s) in question,
forfeiting the balance of the
advertising period.
