In general, when you think about Arabs and Muslims in main roles in pop culture, theyre always the villains, said Linda Sarsour, executive director of the Arab American Association of New York. We're always the hijackers. We're always the bad people that the good American soldiers or CIA is trying to fight. To finally have the opportunity where the Arab-American can be the super hero, to be the one who saves people, is a lot more powerful an image. He's being silly. Muslims are NEVER the villains in popular culture. It's only on the evening news that Muslims are the villains, and there the events are described as "isolated incidents".

We are told that Osama Bin Laden did not follow REAL Islam, then when he is killed, our president sees to it that he has an official Islamic funeral at our expense so as not to irritate the Islamic communities around the world.
Obama lied, people died.
