The Al-Ansar Battalion says on its Facebook page the camp is open to all those wishing to participate in "jihad in Homs", where opposition forces are engaged in fierce battles with troops loyal to President Bashar al-Assad for control of the city. However, it lays out a number of conditions for new recruits including the ban on lighting up. "Smokers should abstain from smoking during the camp and completely quit smoking by the end of the training," it says.Dangerous stuff, that tobacco. Unlike guns, explosives and all-out suicidal insurrection, of course.

Obviously TCI is in good company.
They don't post photos of themselves , do they? Only, I thought that images were haram.
Oh sorry, I was probably thinking of Brother Fessel from 'Four Lions'. Although sticking a cardboard box on your head would probably make smoking a little problematic (or even suicidal)....
Rob F - I love your last comment.
I suppose it's also to stop any suicide bombers from blowing themselves up too early when they have a last fag with their mates?
As I noted over at a Telegraph article yesterday, I've just about given up on satire in the smoking arena. Satirizing the Antismokers is absolutely pointless. You no sooner write it than you open up a newspaper and find it's become the news.

Thanks, John!
I love that film! Don't know how well it goes down in the US, though, especially after the Boston Marathon attacks

You will learn "how to shot people"... to kill... but: Don't smoke! Think of the passivesmoke!

Well I guess it's the French Foreign Legion for me then.
