^^^^ Egypt and most Middle East countries yaa xaluuf. I was there and bore witness to the ban.

^^^^ Incidently, the last serious effort to make a movie on prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was in the seventies. The Message was a classic made by Mustapha Akkad the maker of another classic, the Lion of the Desert. Unfortunately, The Message was banned in many Arab/Muslim countries and I'm sure riots and protests followed or preceded the banning. I watched the film as a young'un then again as an adult and wondered why in God's good name was this movie banned. And since we (all humans) learn nothing from history, I predict this movie will be banned in many of those same countries. The masses will be rallied to protest against it and at least one person will die in those protests when they eventually get out of hand. P.S. Sadly, and this is not relevant to the topic, Mustapha Akkad and his daughter died in a suicide bombing at a hotel in Amman, Jordan in 2005.

Originally posted by Sherban Shabeel: Boycotts and protests? wtf is wrong with you guys. lol. Yeah, boycotts and protests. Tongue in cheek, atheer. Tongue in cheek. Seriously though, isn't that what's going to happen in some village in Pakistan where effigies will be burned and innocent people will be trampled to death? No one mentions the holy prophet in the West without a protest happening in the East.

By their tenth anniversary many wives have managed to complete their child bearing and have achieved the ultimate goal of terminating all s.e.x.ual contacts with the husband. By this time she can depend upon his love for the children and social pressures to hold the husband in the home. Positively priceless.

Originally posted by Malika: *scratches head, a deep though look engulfed her face* Castro,your killing the illusion dee waa kusidee.. ps.The core purpose of attraction is mating, does that answer your question? You know, I heard that rumor too but didn't believe it at first. All this nonsense SeeKer is trying to tell us about brains and smarts and some such nonsense. Usheeg, atheer. It's all about mating. Even 112 year olds are catching a case. lol.

Originally posted by Bile Bile: Castro, lol, my word being FACTUAL like that of the Bible, this admission of your puts doubt you true gender Ability kulaha. War odayga labada lugoodba xabaasha kula jira ragiinan u sacbinaya hayni fuulo idinka for he will probably not be able to tell the difference. Give it up, atheer. There's no story here. This is the mother of all UFF fowqal AKHAS fowqal OUUCCC.

I think demonstrations and boycotts are in order. This is a terrible idea.

Originally posted by Malika: Money can be quite alluring,so is looks but there got to be something more about that person that you just cant resist.. Umm.. Booty?

Originally posted by SeeKer: Funny men seem to be into the body and women into the brain. Such blanket and erroneous statements have no place in this scientific forum. :rolleyes: In other news, here's my favorite niiko video. Admire all the intelligence that is on display here. !Ay Caramba!

Originally posted by Abtigiis & Tolka: Kaneeca wajiga waxooga ka cuntay otherwise lovely young lady and good voice. But not gorgeous by any imagination. LOOOL. Kaneeco kulaha. I find her look and voice to be lovely as well. What I can't get over are the Chrysler 300 and the public housing in the background? I mean really, are there no nice sites to shoot this video in whatever town that is? That camera man/director should be beaten severely with his camera then fired.

Originally posted by Geel_jire: it is a very plausible scenario :confused: This is about as plausible as UFO abductions.
