Here’s a strategy against terrorists that’s doomed to fail

So, I imagine the letter went something like this:

Dear Al Qaeda,

We know that basically terrorists are just misunderstood people. You aren’t really bad. We know that. You know that. So, let’s say we come up with an agreement. You don’t attack us, we keep our landmarks and false sense of security and you take our dignity and attack our sorry, pathetic, pansy butts anyway? Sound good?

If we send you money and guns will you promise not to attack us? Yes? You are all so nice. See, if America would only use diplomatic reason they would find you all are more than willing to let them kiss your terrorist butts.

Oh, wait, I think that their new leadership may be more willing to do that than the last.

Sincerely Chaps,

Great Brit

Don’t attack us please, UK ads to say on Pak TV

London The British government will air ads on Pakistani television urging terrorists to not attack Britain.

Prominent British Muslims will star in the British Foreign Office-funded £400,000 (approximately Rs 2.9 crore)-campaign that is set to break on Pakistani television next Monday, ‘The Guardian’ reported on Tuesday.

The three-month public relations offensive, called ‘I Am the West’, will also include high-profile events in regions such as Peshawar and Mirpur, ‘The Guardian’ said. Seven in ten British Pakistanis are Mirpuris.

According to ‘The Guardian’, the first three ads in the project will feature British Communities Minister Sadiq Khan, UK manager of Islamic Relief Jehangir Malik, former England Under-19 captain and promising Worcestershire allrounder Moeen Ali, and the Lord Mayor of Birmingham, Chaudry Abdul Rashid, a Mirpuri.

The campaign, the paper said, will be targeted at ‘15-25-year-old males who are less than well-educated and worldly wise, but potentially susceptible to extremist doctrines’. Nine 30-second commercials, supported by ads on radio, will be aired on PTV, Geo TV and Khyber among other channels. If the Pakistani campaign is successful, it will be extended in Egypt, Yemen and Indonesia.
