I know how you feel. This was just some crazy-assed politician, who appears not to have been able to afford crayons ... but enough about him, its worse in the present US administration.
The entire US Information Operations campaign against AQ has been a brain-dead and ideologically-based disaster made with soft, blunt scissors and tasty white glue paste ... sort of like this movie
My sister, a nurse and a devout Moslem, proposes more realistic options in changing Moslem minds about AQ than the entire NDI. Then trash like this comes out. The problem is huge parts of the military will buy off on this as "intelligence" about the threat! Yeesh!
Funny story: I interviewed with a certain Pentagon contractor awarded an IO contract to be based in the ME. When I found I would be the ONLY westerner who spoke Arabic I asked, "How the hell do you know what the enemy is saying and if you're getting your message across?" They contract transcripts! Well it didn't matter as their IO campaign was targetted at, wait for it ... US Public consumption!!
When I asked about targeting my neighbors (I live in a ME country when not in NY or Iraq), they said "There are no contracts for it."
I am certain that I could take down AQ globally with just a fraction of a weeks operations costs in Iraq by destroying their reputation through Moslem nations and proper religious authority. But thanks to this film, my neighbors are boycotting Dutch products and the only Dutch guy I know has a South Africa flag sticker on his car for "protection."
We have to show the evils of AQ, not the imaginary evils of a billion people just trying to get on in life.
