PR Advice for Al-Qaeda
When Osama bin Laden was taken out last month, it was an event that many people thought would never happen. It didn't happen soon enough, that's for sure. Hats off to the greatest military in the world for seeing it through.
The discovery of computers and documents in the compound where the al-Qaeda leader was killed revealed some problems with the terrorist group's image, and reports from the Associated Press show bin Laden's final writings dealt with how best to improve it. A name change was one way that came to mind. This lends itself to numerous possibilities, as you can imagine, and Wired magazine started a contest asking readers for their ideas. Some of these are flat out awesome. Here are some of the top-rated suggestions.
