https://youtube/watch?v=5qZA8BuVuHg&feature=youtu.be This is a promotional video for one of the Al Nusra Fronts latest forrays into combat. For those of you unaware, the Al Nusra Front is a subset of Al Qaeda currently operating in Syria. What I find striking about it is the way in which its edited. Ive gotta wonder if the people editing these films are aware of the irony in presenting their cause in such a macho, gung-ho, western action-movie fashion. This is literally no different from the trailer of any modern action film produced in the US/UK/whatever. I understand the appeal of this sort of presentation, but it strikes me as funny that a group that has such ire for the west would so openly embrace their style of editing/art making. How can a group so hellbent on destroying western culture and ideology openly openly parrot something so incredibly, well, western?
