Toyota jihadi ad
In the news lately I've noticed that the ISIL jihadis seem to prefer
Toyota trucks (Taliban prefer Nissan). I was having lunch and thinking about marketing when I realized that Toyota may be missing a bet to expand their market. So I wrote this ad over my Ruben sandwich: [headline] 'What, me worry?' asks Mohammed ("Sheik") Yerbouti. 'Not in a Toyota. They're terrorist-tough.' [text] Ask the Jihadi who rides in one: "When you're bouncing across a stinking desert in the back of a pickup, with a bug-eyed camel jockey behind the wheel, you want to know that you aren't going to get a shock absorber up your butt," says Sheik Yerbouti."Toyotas are terrorist-tough! "Whether you're racing to a beheading or shooting your 20mm anti-aircraft gun, a Toyota can take it -- day after day -- and you know your doors won't fall off. "They're terror-ready, with padded bed liners, removable coffin handles, and a two-handed fire axe for up-close and personal jihad. "Toyotas are versatile, too. When the jihad is over, you can pack a dozen goats in the bed. And what's a jihadi with a Toyota pickup and a dozen goats? Super Fly!" [tagline] 'Toyota Trucks are Terrorist-Tough!' -- (copyright) Ed Huntress |

I am guessing that ISIS use what is locally available. They do not buy
or import trucks, they steal what is already owned by the people they murder. i |
