Daily Mail Outdoes Itself With Fear Factor Overload
Check this photo - looks pretty horrific really:
And as this article states:
Washington is laid to waste. The Capitol is a blackened, smoking ruin. The White House has been razed. Countless thousands are dead. This is the apocalyptic scene terrorists hope to create if they ever get their hands on a nuclear bomb. This computer generated image posted on terror forums depict what would happen if a nuclear attack took place in Washington D.C. It appeared as rumours swept the Internet that the FBI was warning that an Al Qaeda video was about to be released urging militants to use weapons of mass destruction to attack the West. The information was said to be coming from ‘groups that monitor Islamic militant websites’.
Now surely you’d label this as fear mongering? With a title like “Al-Qaeda’s terrifying vision of a devastated America in the wake of a nuclear attack” you’d struggle not to.
But it becomes ultimately very funny when you realise that this isn’t the product of some brain twisted man mental hellbent on the destuction of Capitol Hill, but actually promotional imagery from a computer game, made by americans.

Unsurprisingly the Daily Mail have yet to remove their “media coup”. Good work!
