1977 Movie

Lego Model

Why, after 35 years, scream racism now?

Because, the "mosque" in Istanbul (which use to be Constantinople) was a Christian church before the invading Muslims converted it to a mosque. Under Ataturk - when Turkey was a modern secular nation - it was coverted to a museum.

Now that Turkey is again ruled by Islamists, while "officially" the building remains a museum, its re-Islamization appears to be beginning.

My verdict: Pound Sand!

They have learned that the way to the big time in the USA is to become a victim group and wail and moan all the time.

This crowd flew occupied planes into occupied buildings, and used that to become America’s second biggest victim group.

So these Muslims think they invented crappy looking dome structures now?

I’m not saying the building doesn’t have architectural appeal, I’m just saying a structure with a dome and a tower has been done a few times before.

And why is Lego “racist” and not Star Wars? And what’s racist about copying a building?

This PC crap is all about overwhelming the system. This looks like a crappy attempt by this Muslim group (who doesn’t totally understand the western liberal concepts) to try and get in on the act of attacking the system.

Legos = Logos?

When the building opened, as a Christian Cathedral, it was dedicated to “Logos”, the Word, the Second Person of the Trinity.

None of the Tatooine scenes from the movies were filmed in Turkey. They were filmed either in Tunisia or Yuma, AZ, so the Turks have no grounds to complain.

Muslims Outraged!

Outraged muslims claim that a pile of cow-flop is intentionally shaped to look like an aerial view of the Istanbul mosque.

One of the funny things about this to me, is that until fairly recently, all Lego minifigs were yellow. They introduced black minifigs with a basketball series some years ago.
