Al Qaeda campaign finance reform

Al Qaeda does web ads? I think they need a new advertising team. I can see advertising being a solid means for spreading terror, but al Qaeda just isn't getting it done. These ads just aren't memorable, and they really aren't all that believable. Perhaps it's the infrequency of the ads, but more likely it's the infrequency of the actual terrorism in the US. I'm not urging more terrorism, but it seems the most effective recent domestic terrorists were the DC snipers. They had frequent attacks in a relatively targeted area. They never needed to advertise for their terror, they had news networks spreading the terror for them.

Also, I'm completely unclear at what these ads are trying to convey. Perhaps instead of being a terror warning video, this is much more a recruiting video. It seems the left has made President Bush hated. A member of Congress called him a "clown." Al Qaeda's images of President Bush surrounded by fire might be a way to get new terrorists to join their team.

I think the recruiting angle makes plenty of sense. Many years ago I kept wondering how on GI Joe that COBRA always had so many recruits. I mean, they weren't a part of any national army, but still had plenty of troops. I'm guessing that today they'd also use web ads to recruit.
