I believe Yale and Harvard will be competing for these folks.
I also believe the State Department is printing their visas.

I would counter that context sets the stage for images. Further, the video, with its Nasheed soundtrack and other statements, are not actually shown.

What is shown is the brutality of the Taliban within the context of an explanation as to just how brutal the Taliban are.

Using enemy propaganda for your own purposes is one of the oldest tricks in the book.
