Anti-jihadist Ramadan ad goes viral
2017-05-29
[IsraelTimes] A video advertisement that depicts a would-be jacket wallah confronted by the faithful has gone viral two days into the Moslem fasting month of Ramadan.

"Worship your God with love, not terror" is the main message of the three-minute ad posted Friday online by Kuwaiti telecommunications giant Zain, which operates across the Middle East.
The video, with English subtitles, can be seen at the link.
"I will tell God everything," says the voiceover of a child at the beginning of the ad as a man is seen preparing a bomb. "That you’ve filled the cemeteries with our children and emptied our school desks..."

The video featuring Emirati pop star Hussain al-Jassmi has registered nearly two million views on Zain’s YouTube page and more than 4,000 shares on Facebook.

It features images from bombings across the region claimed by al-Qaeda or the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group.

But it ends on a positive note with footage of a happy wedding and cheerful children dressed in white.

"We will encounter their hatred with songs of love," concludes a caption superimposed on a black background.

Gulf monarchies are part of the US-led coalition bombing IS gunnies in Syria and Iraq. Some of them have also been targeted by attacks.
