Johnny Depp: The New Face of Terror
The propaganda wing of the US government is freakin hilarious! I was just browsing my Gmail when I spotted this headline: U.S. reveals face of alleged new terror chief. They certainly filled the vaccuum of that other guy pretty quickly, eh? And check out who he looks EXACTLY like:

The military said the picture showed Egyptian-born Abu Ayyub al-Masri, a senior al Qaeda in Iraq operative believed to have taken over the terror network after the killing of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi last week. […] Al-Masri “has been a terrorist since about 1982 …”
Are we to believe that someone who looks just like our own beloved Johnny Depp could be the new face of ultimate evil in Iraq? I’m sure Disney won’t be pleased with this development - unless it’s actually highly coordinated viral marketing for the new Pirates of the Carribbean movie. Which, honestly, who knows? It’s all just entertainment at this point, designed to keep people on the edge of their seats, pumping money into the system.

Is Abu Ayyub al-Masri working as a mall Santa?

My wife’s ex-boyfriend’s best-friend’s brother Lawrence once starred in a musical called “Butt Pirates of the Caribbean“, for what its worth

Oh, dude, please. Johnny Depp’s lips are much sexier than that other guy’s! And no unibrow, and better nose and cheekbones, and …. eyeliner!
