What the hell is everyone talking about? Arabs are great people! They have the agility of a mongoose, get to make out with a seemingly virgin princess, fly on carpets, have a pet monkey, a genie for a companion, and a penis with the girth of a Coke can.

I don`t see how they can be evil at all!

Now if you had renamed Jaffar to Allah and made him an insane bomber then i could see some arabs maybe getting a little annoyed and only protesting. BECAUSE STERIOTYPES NEVER FIT THE PEOPLE!

Hollywood ended up making it easier for people to hate the arabs and accept the governments blame on Arabs for 911.

I`m confused, wasn`t Aladdin also an Arab? How about Jasmin?

Geep67. but in the begining he is a thief.
x60sec-Assassinx. it is just entertainment but the problem is films like aladin are made for kids and can create steriotypes at a young age. plus there have been so many films that have had arab/muslim/middle eastern bad guys that it kinda sticks in your mind.

@Geep67 I haven`t even watched this vid, but from memory of watching Aladdin, I`m guessing the prob of that film and many popular films that are based in different cultures is that the "good" arabs like Aladdin and Jasmin, the heroes have american accents and the "bad" arabs have ethnic accents. Personally I liked Aladdin, but I still hate the stereotyping.

The worst movie is Rules of Engagement, the end scene with the little 8 yr old girl suddenly turning all evil and pulling out an AK or whatever was fucking unbelievable. Unbelievable that the whole production crew/director/film company could be ok with such a blatantly stupid and racist "plot twist".

@UrbanLegend

Love your answer about aladin being an arab: "Geep67. but in the begining he is a thief."

"The worst movie is Rules of Engagement"

I think the worst was "The Kingdom" American FBI go over and try to push their laws on others. Well that is what is really going on, trying to make iraq an unofficial state of america. I dont blade the iraqians for fighting the the invading army - America.

within every stereotype is long standing truth. there`s a reason people view people of that region in a certain way.

Read the bible, and see all of god; including his mercy, love, grace, and wrath. read the koran, see only allah`s wrath(and yes, I have read both all the way through).

/\yup love
Exodus 22:18 22:18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
How many people were killed with that Gem of mercy, love, grace of "god"
Exodus 21:24-25 eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
Homosexuals must be executed. Leviticus 20:13
But we can play that game with any book my point was all books have them up to the person reading it how to take and apply it
You said you read the quran but do you know time context and what was going on at that time there is a diffrence between reading and understanding.
I can quote you this from a book
"You should have died! Died rather than betray your friends, as we would have done for you!"
you can take it as someone telling someone else they should have Died rather than betray friends but if you read context you know this is from Harry Potter person said it was Sirius Black talking to Peter Pettigrew
anything can be taken any way unless you know context

^^Hahaha BIBLE SPREADS LOVE LOLOLOL

If you read the Bible all the way through(which I don`t think you did), and this is in no way meant to disrespect Christians, you definitely would have read the 200+ times the word "sword" was used, amongst other calls to violence against non-Christians. Stick your head out of your ass, moron.

Palestinians are the victims of Israel, but sadly it`s always played out otherwise in the media.

£100 to the first person to name 3 american movies in which the `enemy` is israel or jews

@GregP sorry i should have perhaps said hollywood movies since thats is the theme here...

also dont mean to nit-pick but Paradise Now was made by dutch based Augustus so im sure it woulds lack Hollywood media influence/bias, Kurtlar vadisi (valley of wolves) was made by Pana(turkish based)studio and lastly do you really think the `jews in space` in spaceballs was a serious enemity towards jews its more of a piss take to me but in case you do, ill give you that one...

I want to see an American made/produced movie (ie Hollywood) that depicts Israelis/Jewish state as murderers and oppressors im sure its a severe rarity...

Best thing to hear in my ears... Are Christians talking about "Allah" And saying some just stupid things...

Great part about this is... Allah is just a name for God...
You may think of it as Arabic for God...
I dont know about you guys... But.. Don`t we both believe in one God? hmmm I love you fools =D Makes good reading
