Now, from the looks of these pictures, the terrorists are getting a bit desperate:

Edit: It's Confirmed!

Haha clever.

Haha thats sad, they thought it would work?

If you read the Fox article, it says the flag thing in the back has incorrect Arabic grammar/spellings and what not, so maybe it was a hoax not pulled off by the terrorist groups?

Terrorists are stupid, what do you expect from those animals?

[/quote] Decent cgi in future attempts?

For instance, why would they leave a captured soldier in all of his tactical gear?

The gun was the main giveaway, that's a pretty heavy gun to be holding with one hand.

The dead giveaway for me is the jacket.

Dead giveaway for me is the cloth behind him. It is not even stretched like it would be if that were a full sized cloth.

The gun was a giveaway. Lmao.

Does anyone feel like raiding a toy store and capturing all the radical muslim dolls?
