A Ramadan TV ad by a Middle Eastern telecommunications company in which victims of terrorism confront a suicide bomber and urge society to “bomb violence with mercy” has provoked a heated debate in the region, with some praising its attempt to tackle extremism and others criticising it for using victims of bombings and a simplistic portrayal of terrorists.

A nice sentiment to portray, but in the real world the suicide bomber would be thanking Allah for bringing so many innocent victims into such close proximity to his device. The song would never air its ending line.
