Introducing, AVERAGE MUHAMAD

We all know about the  Charlie Hebdo Shooting: 12 Killed at Muhammad Cartoons Magazine in Paris. Right now seems the murderous spree is coming to a head, Cornered Charlie Hebdo suspects 'want to die as martyrs'.

Reason that I feel it necessary to remind everybody is more than to inflame. It
is my way to introduce everybody to Average Mohamed.

It can be difficult to remember that most Muslims are not like those who commit such despicable atrocities.

Average Mohamed counters terror message with cartoon videos

Muslim-American runs website with homemade videos to combat terrorist groups' efforts to recruit young Muslims.

In the war for young people's hearts and minds, Mohamed Ahmed hopes to use cartoons to dissuade a generation raised on "The Simpsons" and "South Park" from taking up arms for the Islamic State group and other extremist causes.

Ahmed, a convenience store manager from Minneapolis, has launched AverageMohamed.com, a website offering homemade videos aimed at countering the messages and images terrorists use to lure disaffected youths.

"I don't want my children fighting this war. Let's end this in my generation," said Ahmed, a married father of four young children.

Sitting in his sparsely furnished recording studio, Ahmed, 39, said he started his videos out of frustration.

"I've decided to take on one value at a time, one item at a time, to shoot down extremist ideology and philosophy," he said. He took the moniker "Average Mohamed" because of the worldwide popularity among Muslims of the Prophet Mohammed's name.
