You still can't say that you are angry at the way that hollywood portrays the "bad muslims". there is slight truth in the behaviors of the characters in the movie. understandably there is a slight offense when muslims are the bad guys but the movie was trying to take place in modern times with a war that is happening in Iraq and Afghanistan where the bad guys are muslim and they do hate us and want to kill us.

I am well aware that I may have come off somewhat disrespectful but just like you I feel that i am entitled to my own opinion and should sway my views anymore that you should yours.- magictroll, on 05/14/2008, -0/+1Of course you're entitled to your opinion.

Did you know that many World War II video games and movies are straight-out banned in Germany? Just because something is true, doesn't mean it needs to be celebrated. Speaking for myself and my entourage, we're sick of always explaining to people that we're not "those bad Muslims" we're good people. I don't see Americans feeling the need to distance themselves from perpetrators of atrocities in Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay. I don't see any American jumping up and down denouncing other Americans who are guilty of crimes around the world.
This is an emotional topic for me and I apologize but I do thank you for your comment. It was tasteful and fair to say the least.
