    I can't believe this bullshit made the front page. Seriously, read the fucking article, the headline reads:

    Al-Qaeda's terrifying vision of a devastated America in the wake of a nuclear attack

    and the body of the article later contradicts the headline by stating this:

    The FBI was quick to point out that it had not issued any warning and that the video was not an official Al Qaeda release through its media arm, Al Sahab, but simply an ' amateur' collection of old footage spliced together and posted on the Internet.

    I expect propaganda, but not on the shack. Also, they have been usage anti american imagery for decades, just because they found a quality photo on the net doesn't mean it should be front page news. This shit fucking angers me. >:(
