If there was no such TV show as "24" there would be no prejudice and stereotyping against Moslems and everybody would realize what nonviolent, gentle and peaceful folks they are, just based on the way they conduct themselves all over the world.

Never said that. But the only place I've seen stereotypes used in such a ham handed manner is probably 'professional wrestling'. And that's usually aimed at 5 year olds and rednecks as a focus group.

Your comments remind me of people who quote Rush out of context. You can't sum up this show based on a few minutes of one episode.

You mean like the season that the pretty little blonde jihadi killed her Arab fiance on their wedding day?

Why not save your comments for things you know about?

Isn't stereotyping, by definition, painting large groups of people as all the same? How can 24 be sterotyping when the neighbor's Arabic father was _not_ a terrorist, when one of the key people trying to stop the violence is an Arab, ex-terrorist, when the head of the CAIR-type orgainization is standing up for peace? Wouldn't it, rather, be sterotyping to show all Arabs as peaceful?

Just who is our most dangerous enemy in the world today if it isn't radical Islamists?
