U.S. State Department attempts to fightback against ISIS by launching a video mocking the terror group

* The video was posted on a youtube channel and is entitled ‘Welcome to the 'Islamic State' land

* In a web campaign called 'Think again, turn away' the video offers a glimpse into what the terror group really stands for and shows gruesome scenes

* However, ISIS continues to wage an online campaign in an attempt to grab the attention of viewers worldwide

The anti-ISIS video was produced by the State Department's Center for Strategic Counterterrorism Communications, which seeks to combat ISIS extremist narrative on social media.

In the video, the opening images show a mosque being blown up, followed by a photo of a body with a severed head.

Mocking the Terrorist Group? No, “our” State Department mocks America. They are leftist jokers who make us look stupid and I think it is on purpose.

The idea is a good one. But the sincerity is undermined by the lack of a military response.

Isn’t the release of a video the exact same thing that launched the vicious attack on the consulate at Benghazi in Libya? At least that was the story we were given for so long....

Aren’t the people over in the State Department aware of the very great potential this new video has of inflaming and arousing all the otherwise peaceful and moderate Muslims? Have they learned nothing from recent events?

(Oh, hell, do I HAVE to include the < /sarcasm > tag?)

I didn’t know that the US State Department and the Islamofascists were on different sides.

FUD on the edges.

“Blazing Saddles” did more for race relations than any dreary gov’t program.

That should work about as well as anything else they've done. Which is to say, not at all.

Liberals are genetically incapable of embarrassment.

True, that.

You have to be intelligent enough to know you have made an idiot of yourself to be embarrassed.

The Bobsy Hashtag Twins. Strike again.

Now that both have been severely criticized in the press, it is impossible for the Obamaites to admit the criticisms are accurate by firing them.

Deliciously hilarious.

Is this the next step after the sternly worded letter to the Times?
