It would seem that there are some people out there who think that hugely successful video game, Grand Theft Auto IV, was inspired by Al Qaida! Seriously, according to an article in the current on line edition of German newspaper, Spiegel, which points out that some guy by the name of "Abd al-Wahhab," has been posting about his theory on a large discussion forum used by cyber-jihadists and al-Qaida sympathizers not long ago. He is convinced of his theory, arguing that the video game "shows the power and effectiveness of these tactics." Weazel News, the news radio station in the game (Motto: "Your station for sports, weather and the war on terror") not only reflects America's obsession with terrorism, It's obvious that it is a caricature of Rupert Murdoch's, neo-con, flag waving, Fox News, which even claimed that when Barack and Michelle Obama fist bumped each other, it was a secret Jihadist sign. Fair and Balanced my ass!

Don't laugh, it could happen!
