I’m not sure this will have any effect on people who commit suicide bombing atrocities, but any attempt to counter the flood of jihad propaganda in the Arab world should be applauded, and this one is emotionally powerful (video included below): TV spot dissects suicide bombing.

A television commercial aimed at thwarting terrorism has reached Middle Eastern TV networks, using high-tech effects to show the anatomy of a suicide bombing in graphic detail.

The $1 million ad is packed with special effects, including the time-suspension technique made popular in the “Matrix” movies to show bodies, cars and broken glass flying in slow motion through the air. Its sleekness, and the secrecy surrounding its creators and backers, lead some to think the U.S. government is behind it in an effort to woo would-be terrorists away from violence and encourage moderates to take a stronger stand against extremism.

The U.S. government refuses to say clearly whether it’s involved in the commercial, which began airing this summer on Al Arabiya, Lebanese Broadcasting Corp. and several Iraqi channels as violence was raging in Baghdad and the militant group Hezbollah and Israel were at war.
