Fallout 3 Art Used for Terrorist Video - May 31, 2008 23:47
Alleged al-Qaeda tape shows DC after a nuclear strike.

From 1up.com



The Telegraph reports that a video titled " Nuclear Jihad: The Ultimate Terror" appeared on two password-protected video sites, and is believed to have originated from the al-Qaeda terrorist group. Among the video was a picture of a devastated Washington DC, which the non-profit Search for International Terrorist Entities (SITE) Intelligence Group at first claimed was created by the terrorists to illustrate nuclear strikes in the United States and Britain. The group was surprised (and likely a bit embarrassed) to find out that the image was actually created by Bethesda Softworks for Fallout 3, and not al-Qaeda at all.


It appears that someone removed the article on this page (interesting)

Yeah, Al-Qaeda concept artists are probably kind of hamstrung by the orthodox Islamic ban on creating representational artwork.
