Nimer is also upset about what he sees as "subliminal anti-Arab messages" in a series of action figures to be released in promotional tie-ins with the film. For example, a playset being packaged with Chicken McNuggets involves bullet holes arranged in the shape of the Arabic word for "butthole," according to experts.

This has to be a joke... nobody is this recockulous...

At least I hope so...

LOL!!!

Warner Brothers has refused to comment, but a spokesman privately called the complaints "ludicrous," pointing out, "Keanu Reeves doesn't even like Jews."

Yeah, I do believe this has to be a joke. What actor would let that fly?

The degree of racism and Islamophobia in this movie is just unaccaptable," says CAIR Research Director Dr. Mohamed Nimer. "Warner Brothers should be ashamed to put out such a film, which negates all of the great contributions our noble religion has made to society in the past 200 years."

So was he referring to the flying of planes into the WTC in the name of allah, or the bombing of the USS Cole?

Don't turn this into a muslim-bashing thread, just because some prick of indeterminate religion decided to troll the Matrix fans.

Whoever wrote that is a troll.

And you know the rules:

DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS

Amazing how a group of nutjobs can hijack some planes and turn the American culture inside out while simultaneously transforming the Muslim culture into psuedo-feminists.
What a world

Looks like a joke... Arabic word for butthole? No one is stupid enough to think of that as a subliminal message. It would only be one if the viewer knew Arabic.

hehe, I was seriously shocked at the stupidity of the article until the last few sentences. At least they gave some indication that it's a joke.

Nimer believes that perhaps the biggest danger presented by the film is that the film's star, hunky Keanu Reeves, bears striking similarity to a young Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, the architect of the 1982 Sabra and Shatilla massacres.

"We are afraid that young viewers will come out of this movie with the wrong kinds of impressions, such as 'occupation is cool,' and 'Hamas and Hezbollah peace activists are dangerous.'"

Nimer is also upset about what he sees as "subliminal anti-Arab messages" in a series of action figures to be released in promotional tie-ins with the film. For example, a playset being packaged with Chicken McNuggets involves bullet holes arranged in the shape of the Arabic word for "butthole," according to experts.

ummmm... huh???
