Sandi Dubowski, who won the Teddy gay and lesbian award in 2001 for his controversial doc "Trembling Before G-d," may cause an even bigger stir with "In the Name of Allah," which explores the struggles of homosexual Muslims.
Gay Indian Muslim helmer Parvez Sharma is directing the pic, which looks at gay, lesbian, and transgender Muslims across the Muslim and Western worlds.
"The world right now needs to understand Islam, and these are the most unlikely storytellers of Islam," Dubowski said, who is producing 'Allah.'

we have troops on the ground in two Muslim countries whose populations will go bat shiite crazy if this airs over there, and it will. Yes. Worry about the troops. But concern about offending Muslims went out the window a long time ago. They are NUTS. Anything offends them...including (last year) a swirl in a Burger King ice cream that resembled a symbol for Allah. If we lived to not offend the Muslims, we'd all stay locked up at home. You cannot avoid offending them. They're crazy.

Homer Simpson: Yeah, and that's another thing! I resent you people using that word. That's our word for making fun of you! We need it!

I had heard about Michael Jackson's disquise but hadn't seen it.
That image brought to my mind a comic book tale I haven't looked at in probably 30 years:

If we lived to not offend the Muslims, we'd all stay locked up at home. That's what they want. Until they can get up the program to go door to door with swords. And you thought other door to door preachers were bad?
