Arnold's hugely popular in Iraq? Who'da thunk?
But as I related on another thread, these days when I'm pumping iron at my gym I think of Arnold. And in my mind hear him say, "You mawst be dee-cee-plined. You mawst stay weeth it. Weening takes vork." etc. etc.
I need lots of inspiration.

I know, particularly since one of Arnold's movies, True Lies, featured Arnold fighting Muslim terrorists.
