Enter the Koran contest, and win an AK-47!
September 22, 2011 at 8:14 am
BBC Wrote:A radio station run by Somalia's al-Shabab Islamist group has awarded weapons to children who won a Koran-reciting and general knowledge contest.
Andulus radio, based near Mogadishu, gave the group which won first prize in the Ramadan competition an AK-47 rifle and the equivalent of $700 (£450). The second prize-winners received an AK-47 and $500, while the third prize was two hand grenades and $400. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-14985549
Nice prizes for those who can recite the sacred texts of the religion of peace.
Best regards,

AK's are a sign of power and status in many cultures.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Of course, considering that this is happening in an country which is essentially the real-life equivalent of Mad Max, this shouldn't be much of a surprise.

The poster stuffed under the jacket looks a whole hell of alot like a bulls-eye, and the gear and headband clearly identify this as an enemy combatant. A poorly armed enemy combatant.
