Are they going about it the best way? :confused:

U.S. produces anti-suicide bombing ad for Iraq
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A simulated suicide bombing will be filmed in downtown Los Angeles this weekend in a campaign by prominent Iraqis who want to dissuade the bombers who have wreaked a devastating toll on their country.
The 60-second edited film, a simulation of a Baghdad marketplace bombing that will kill or injure 200 people, will air on Iraqi TV in six weeks.
Los Angeles-based commercial filmmaker 900 Frames will film and produce the staged suicide bombing, showing viewers the time just before, during and after the explosion, in an effort to capture the impact of the act.
A group of scholars, businessmen and activists in Iraq and abroad put up the $1 million in production costs, which includes hiring over 200 mostly local actors.
Iraqi leaders recently agreed on a national unity government to curb sectarian violence in the country where suicide bombings are an almost daily occurrence. More than 35,000 Iraqi civilians have died since the U.S.-led invasion in 2003, hundreds in suicide attacks.

900 Frames co-founder Drew Plotkin said it was "a tremendous responsibility."
"This is about saving lives," he said. "If we do our job right, it is quite possible this could be the way to stop suicide bombing."
LOL, that is funny
Islam forbids killing except in certain circumstances such as in self defense, or in response to another killing. Even then Islam counsels forgiveness, or compensation for the victim's family.
So what's wrong with the so-called 'suicide bombing'? Legally, less than what one might believe - it's permissable under international law.
Most Israelis over the age of 18, aren't exactly civilians. All eligible men and women are drafted into the Israel Occupation Force (IOF) at age 18. Men serve for three years, women for 21 months. Upon completion of compulsory service each soldier is assigned to a reserve unit.
All Israeli busses are owned and operated by the state, and each one serves as a military transport vehicle. Civilian passengers often find themselves riding next to an on-duty, rifle-carrying soldier being ferried to a duty station.
Israeli pizzerias and McDonalds fast-food restaurants are teeming with off-duty and on-duty Israeli military men and women, many of both sexes carrying rifles.
Palestine is occupied land, and under international law, the Palestinians have the legal right to resist this occupation by any and all means. This may make busses, restaurants, discos - where Israeli military congregate, lawful targets.
However, Israeli F16 and gunships kill more Palestinian civilians - than isolated acts of so-called 'suicide bombing'.
stop the effect but not the cause.
how is that possible?
violence begets violence in a vicious circle.
