Of COURSE the reaction is related to the London bombing. Nobody ever suggested it wasn't. The point I was making in the post you quotemined was that the image of "Arab" terrorists garrotting a fan favorite is REALLY FUCKING UNHELPFUL on a day when anti-muslim feeling will probably be running high amongst some people anyway. The fact that this image was reminiscent of some of the beheading videos only strengthens the blind jingoism.

Excuse me for being disgusted by the promotion of hatred.
Promotion of hatred?

Okay. Yeah. Why are you even watching wrestling?

Have you watched some of the things La Res said in the past? OR paid attention to the Hassan gimmick at all? Or the resounding way they always bring the war on terror back in, even when there's no arab wrestler?

Where have you been over the past 20 or so years? Chest thumping, bigoted Americanism has been a part of wrestling for a long long time, and THIS of all things gets your nipples twisted?

Oh wait, the timing. Right. Let's yank all programming that generically might have had something to do with the London boming.
