Submission + - NoTerror.info site for anti-terror campaign
isdale writes: Cristian Lowe is an excellent embedded reporter/blogger currently in Iraq. His latest post covers a TV ad campaign designed to convince locals to fight terror groups. He links to a website from the campaign sponsors and asks for a bit o'help tracking down backers. Should be trivial for \. crowd.
(quote) So I'm waiting in the PAO tent at Warhorse last night and the only TV channels on the tube are Arab media. I was watching an Iraqi news channel out of the corner of my eye and spotted an ad that showed a group of masked men charging out of several black Mercedes sedans and firing AK-47s into the air. Then the camera shifts to a Sunni-looking sheik type, who links arms with a Shiite imam-looking dude which gets the crowd going to confront the "terrorists." It was a well done ad and made me think of Anderson's article.
The commercial referenced a web site called "noterror.info." If you go there, you can see several more of the organization's ad campaigns. It's unclear who's behind the site, and I don't have the resources at my disposal to find out (here's where our readers might be able to lend a hand). (endquote)
