Help wanted. Crappy salary, paranoid boss, short life expectancy and imaginary retirement benefits. Sounds like the kind of job you'd like to have? In case, what about a job doing video editing for al-Qaeda?
The London-based Asharq al-Awsat said on its Web site this week that al Qaeda had "vacant positions" for video production and editing statements, footage and international media coverage about militants in Iraq, the Palestinian territories, Chechnya and other conflict zones where militants are active.
The paper said the Global Islamic Media Front, an al Qaeda-linked Web-based organization, would "follow up with members interested in joining and contact them via email."
I wonder how long that email address remained unmolested?
Apparently, jihad is not a good business if you're into it for the money.
Asharq al-Awsat said the advert did not specify salary amounts, but added: "Every Muslim knows his life is not his, since it belongs to this violated Islamic nation whose blood is being spilled. Nothing should take precedence over this."
Normally it's meant as a joke when you say about a job you'll get your salary in heaven...
