Bono: Hey, I've Got a Great Idea. Let's Send Amy Schumer and Chris Rock to Fight ISIS with Laughter.

Asked for comment, Amy Schumer said, "Hey, I've got a great idea. Let's send Amy Schumer and Chris Rock to fight ISIS with laughter."

Now this is the first sensible thing I've heard today!

Bono was speaking in front of a Senate subcommittee on Tuesday 12 April, during a wide-ranging discussion on the Middle East and the refugee crisis. He said: "Don't laugh. I think comedy should be deployed. It's like, you speak violence, you speak their language. But you laugh at them, when they're goose-stepping down the street, and it takes away their power. So, I'm suggesting that the Senate send in Amy Schumer, and Chris Rock, and Sacha Baron Cohen, thank you."

The 55-year-old had to reassure the crowd at the Dirksen Senate Office Building that he was "actually being serious" and in response he received a serious reply.

Well, it is true that machismo-fueled, shame-culture Heroic Fantasy death-worshippers are especially wounded by mockery, as they're in the cause for all the male puffery and peacock-preening.

One the other hand, Amy Schumer might be killed.

So... I guess I'm all in.

From Ed Driscoll, who also links the story of the hipster musician who's going to Syria to serenade ISIS into peace with his terrible music.

The funeral has been planned for July 22nd.
