YOUR OWN LANDMINES
BOXES OF GRENADES
FULLY AUTOMATIC ASSAULT RIFLES
How do you get Somali Muslims to participate in an educational contest?
Do you lure them with a luxury cruise as top prize?
Do you give them a chance to win a walk around the Kaaba free of charge?
No, you offer them a chance to win one-way ticket to jihad, replete with a cache of AK-47 assault rifles, a box of grenades, and a few anti-tank landmines.
Should they get killed in the struggle, the top prize winners are sure to enter seventh heaven where seventy houris (nubile Muslim maidens with bounteous breasts and dark eyes) will cater to their every whim for all eternity.
The contest, which lasted throughout the month of Ramadan, was a smash success that attracted thousands of participants.
The event was organized by Somalia's al-Qaeda inspired Shebab group in the southern Somali city of Kismayo.
Five neighborhoods of the port city entered the competition, which consisted mainly of questions on science, culture and the Koran. The contest was aired on the state-controlled radio station.
The top prize winners came from the Farzano district and received the cache of weapons at a ceremony where they were cheered by thousands of onlookers.
"The reason the young men were rewarded with weapons is to encourage them to participate in the ongoing holy war against the enemies of Allah in Somalia," Sheikh Abdullahi Alhaq said at a ceremony.
