[QUOTE=Ultragamer05;19859400]What about the Russians? They get stereotyped in Hollywood a lot, too, you know.[/QUOTE]
I agree the Russian get portrayed a lot worst in all forms of Western media and more so then the people of Arab decent.Video games, mews movies all portray A negative stereotype of Russian and people believe them without knowing very little of the Culture and nation itself. I yet to even meet an american that knowns anything remotely factual about Russia. Hell Radical Islamic terrorist in U.S movies on 80's and even Fromer U.S president Regan labeled them freedom fighters when they bombed the Russians. Even today The Chechen Mujahideen (which is funded and linked to Bin laden) is labeled in western News as freedom fighters when do a bombing of schools and trains.

[QUOTE=actionhank;19859882]In recent news: France is planning to make wearing the Burqa illegal. Apparently the less than 2000 Muslim women who actually cover their faces aren't too happy about it.[/QUOTE]
Actually the French government handle that very well and even consulted religious law leaders in Morocco. Which then passed degree saying Muslim women should respect the laws in the host country.
Ok this thread has strayed a bit too far.
Hala to all those who can understand where I'm coming from, and a hearty "Chill Out" to all those who don't.
[quote]stereotypes are based on the truth.
We, Koreans are stereotyped as loud, arrogant, stubborn, and proud people.
You fucking bet we are. [/quote]
If you'd have watched the clip you'd know where the stereotypes came from.

Not to forget LRA in Uganda, they also use child soldiers.
Simply put; there are nutjobs in all religions.
The video in the OP is half correct, but it looks like the guy didn't do all of his research. Some of the stuff in the video is fact, while some of it is rubbish. Getting your hand / foot removed for stealing or other crimes is a very real punishment and happens even today. It's not totally limited to the middle east either, I've seen articles and videos of it happening in Africa, certain parts of India and also in China.
The clip where the man yells at his wife for speaking out of turn while the man is trying to buy the house is a very real part of Muslim society in certain places. Women in certain areas of the middle east have very restricted rights. In marriage in a situation like that, the husband must give the wife permission to speak before she is allowed to. Speaking out of turn is considered very improper.
I have many Arabic friends (that were born and raised in the middle east) and have asked them about stuff like this before, so don't say HURR YOUR A RACIST.

[QUOTE=Killuah;19860640]Reel Bad Documentary: How this clip vilifies the whole american industry of movie-making and yet only looks at the big blockbuster ones.[/QUOTE]
Looks like you didn't watch the whole thing though.
Kudos to TH89 for keeping the racists in check.
Alot of the people posting here didn't even watch the clip.
Woah, I just realised this documentary was based on a book released before 9/11.
[QUOTE=Epidemick;19859380]A friend of mine showed me this clip of a documentary. I really feel like shit now and while I've always slightly noticed it, I never realized it was to this extent.
