The Liberation Army Against Freedom (L.A.A.F) ad features men in Arab attire set in a terrorist-like setting. Not to worry though, the L.A.A.F was created by Dutch officials and are used solely for fireworks safety campaigns.
In the video, the L.A.A.F 'terrorists' show how easy it is for the Dutch to obtain fireworks. You just cross the Belgium border, buy a few, and head back to Dutch country.
Fireworks are used to celebrate the New Year in numerous countries; however, use of illegal fireworks is responsible for many accidents, some of which result in death.
