so not only are they promoting suicide bombing by children, but the stupid instruction video only works on the great satan's browser (I.E.) :mad:

Ok, in a serious response now that I've watched the whole thing, it doesn't so much promote suicide bombing as much as it does simply portray the action and the potential justification for it. Am I inciting people to suicide by stating that sometimes when people get really depressed they top themselves with a razor blade?

CAREFUL: SPOILERS AHEAD


And he doesn't even manage to kill the EVIL ZIONIST GENERAL guy either, so it's not exactly a successful operation, right?

If anything, I'd say it's pretty ambiguous given the current political situation in Iran. It seems pretty tragic to my eyes, not exactly a position I'd want to put myself in after watching, not something admirable. If they're seriously trying to inculcate suicide bombing into kids, they should pick up a few tips from Goebbel's back catalogue first.

But I don't really want to apologise for it; obviously it's pretty irresponsible to allow this stuff to be shown to kids, and pretty disagreeable to produce it in the first place.

Wouldn't it make more sense to, well, throw that grenade belt at the Cobra soldiers? The kid might have nailed that bloodthirsty guy and lived to jihad another day.

Did anyone else watch this and immediately think of the old Road Runner/Coyote cartoons, or was it just me?
