One has to admire British humour.

It is a poor Photoshop project and in poor taste. Raise the bar a bit. These forums deserve better.

Yes, obviously photoshop. And I guess it's Pakistan, not Syria

Pretty low-quality "joke" there.

If you don´t think its a fake just zoom in a bit and see how regular the letters are compared to the material they are attached to...

Interesting though that every kind of war yields its on ways of propaganda. Professional and amateur alike.
And if the technology used is better than the average knowledge about that technology, it often works.

Well the problem with this is that this kind of "humour" works both ways, sadly.
I wonder how many photoshopped pictures with dead babies killed by UN/NATO air attacks stalk through the arabian side of the internet...

And even worse is how many people will believe it because a fraction of the information is true sometimes. Humankinds classic devil´s circle.

Don't be too apologetic. Any culture that treats women as despicably as Islam does deserves some ridicule. Bombing, however, might be a bit much.

I acknowledge that some ppl might find this kind of humor jarring and maybe political and hence not suitable on the forum, should at least put it in my own thread - that's the sin I have to consider

It is probably so that this joke could be considered as an archtype of propaganda for one "side", but gawd...loosen up a bit I'd say!
- I'll edit the first post, and that should be the last word about this!
