If they want to rid themselves of this image, then they need to start ratting out thier terrorists friends.

You see it is all just talk. They denouce the image then turn around and send checks to the PLO, so Aknod and Boboo can blow themselves up in an elementary school.

The only thing these people understand his a gun barrel in the back and a kick in the ass.
They smell, look, and behave like animals. That is why they are treated as such.

AFAIC, when the muslim population decides to actually shun and discourage their little Jihadi Islamokazis I will consider each and every one of them a terrorist.

I won't go to their mosque to hear what their cleric says to them, so their clerics should be shouting from the rooftops to the whole world their disapproval and disgust at islamic terror.

No I won't be satisfied until it's virtually all of them. Until then I'm perfectly satisfied with killing their bretheren (jihadis) and anyone who remotely supports their goals.

Ahmed said the scene "casts a cloud of suspicion over every American-Muslim family out there."

a very healthy suspicion i believe. i have never watched this television series but i won't miss one henceforth.

At first I thought you were talking about politicians.

In its commitment to world peace and opposition to all forms of discrimination, CAIR also denounced the PLO for showing the propaganda film Zahra's Blue Eyes (where Israeli doctors steal the eyes from Palestinians to transplant to Jews) and announced its plans to lead a boycott against Iran for funding the film.

Too many of the bad guys on 24 have ultimately been Europeans and Russians. Let's show some Muslims. Bring it on!

I wonder if CAIR were responsible for making Tom Clancy change the whole plot of Sum of All Fears so as not to offend Islam?

Instead of getting all huffy about how "24" depicts muslims, maybe CAIR should stand up to the Al Qaeda/Hamas/IJ/ ad nauseum terror groups and say:

"This is what you have made us look like! They think ALL muslims are throat cutting, suicide bombing psychopaths who want nothing more than a return to the 12th century"

They are depicted this way because...well...THEY ARE THIS WAY. Until the "mainstream" muslims stand up to the radicals and tell them to cut the crap, they will continued to be painted with the same brush.

Good thing 24 runs on Fox--there you get a a monocrum of truth (even if its watered down). If it had been CBSNBCABC, the terrorist cell would consist of a German or Serb familiy trying to impose Facism on the US. Or a evangelical Christian family plotting to decimate the "sinner" populations in Blue states.

Interestingly enough, we did not hear a peep from the slavic communities in year one and two when the antagonists were slavic about how they were depcited. We also heard nothing from the british in year three when the antagonist was british.

"In this particular case, they show an American-Muslim family and they portray them as terrorists."

And the problem is???????

I wonder what CAIR thinks about the Iranian TV show that deals with Jews stealing Iranian children's eyes?

That was seasons one through three. They have a choice this year. Go away from terrorism (kinda hard since Keifer works/worked for CTU) or go with muslim terrorist cells. I am glad they chose what they chose. Its about damn time.

Did CAIR urge its members to view the film, just so they could "denounce" it in a more informed manner? Sorry, just being cynical.

Never watched? Beware, this series is addictive. My cousin told me that her engineer husband just had to watch it on Tuesday nights, and so I checked it out. Immediately ditched whatever else it was that I had been watching - some lawyer show on CBS, I think, and never looked back!

To watch it just once, is to want to see how it ends.....many thrilling and exciting episodes later.

And I'm not even a Keifer Sutherland fan. Had never even seen a movie he'd been in. But the series is good.

Lastly, looks like the Muslim groups are taking over where Italian-American and other resident protection groups left off. But Muslims killed more Americans in one day than ........finish the sentence at your own ZOT peril! Sigh.

"At first I was shocked," organization spokeswoman Rabiah Ahmed told the Daily News. "In this particular case, they show an American-Muslim family and they portray them as terrorists."

I'm shocked by an honest portrayal of muslims too.

It is ashamed that now they will be criminalized like the American Indians, black Americans, Germans and many others.

Better than having Anglo actors applying deep tanning cream and character names like I'ben Fareteen.

Welcome to Hollyweird.

Thanks for enlightening me. I don't watch much TV anymore ('cept for news and the Simpsons).

Geez, Season one had a Serb as a bad guy, and if I were Serb, I'd be offended that Dennis Hopper was portraying my ethnic group, as Dennis's accent was really quite silly.
