[quote]Yesterday was the 12th anniversary of 9/11. And one bar in Shenzhen, China apparently decided to throw a party—complete with unsettling cosplay. Hey, the bar said it was a fun party!
As pointed out by The Nanfang Insider, the event featured men in military- and Middle Eastern-style garb, brandishing weapons and shooting "Americans."
According to the bar's social networking account, this was a "Counter-Strike" party. Kotaku reached out to the Angel Baby Bar for clarification.
The bar's management told Kotaku that the date was picked because "it would draw attention attention to [the party]."
"We picked Counter-Strike as a theme for this party," a manager surnamed Wang told Kotaku, "because 9-11 had to deal with soldiers, conflict, and terrorists."
"It seemed like the right theme for this party," Ms. Wang added. "It was fun."
When asked whether or not she felt the party's theme was insensitive or if she had heard any complaints, Ms. Wang told Kotaku that she didn't get any negative feedback, adding that it was an enjoyable party.[/quote]

If I remember correctly, wasn't there a video game released where you play as a soldier and you capture America's Most Wanted? I remember Osama was on there as well as some other well-known terrorists.
