No matter how many PSAs they run, there's still going to be that little bit of text contained in the Quran about killing Christians and Jews.

I'll be a little more open to them once I see a PSA telling me that they've decided to remove those parts.

FOX should not have allowed CAIR to produce the PSA's.
They should have turned to someone like Kabbani of the Islamic Supreme Council of America. That would have 'ticked-off' CAIR, but they wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

I'm surprised they didn't demand Fox create a new series about the "heroic" Palestinian suicide bombers as they fight against the Zionist entity.

If America would just stop the nonsense by all this PC crap and just surrender so many lives could be saved.

Why must it be so long and drawn out?

Like it or not, Fox is part of the corporate world. There is very little political courage in the corporate world, and those of us who are not hostage to it must make up for the cowardice of our big-business brethren.

Don't mourn, organize ...

How strange. I actually went to CAIR site to see the PSAs, and it shut down my computer. I actually had to reboot!

CAIR officials requested the meeting with Fox after viewing the first four "24" episodes, which "confirmed our concerns that the story was going in a dangerous direction: casting a shadow of suspicion on ordinary American Muslims." exposing them for exactly what they are...

imo

The only PSA I am interested in is the one that tells me where they live in my town so I can keep an eye on them.

Why don't they just show Muslims in an accurate light, killing innocent people and/or blaming Jews for every single problem they have.

24 is about terrorism. Is it wrong to portray terrorists (muslims) as they are? Last season the terrorists were mexican drug lords, were there PSAs that told people that not all mexican drug lords are terrorists? Of course not. Most mexican drug lords are decent, hard working people that need to be loved, just like murderers, rapists, and schizophrenic homeless that throw bricks at passersby.

Think it's love or is it the machine gun that really rules on love?
