I agree. I absolutely hate it when the WWE "faces" given airtime completely agree with the crowd as well. They showed footage of the French President and George Bush shaking hands and JR acted like "It's good to see the French make up for being cowards and not helping with the war.". This pissed me off to no end, I felt like throwing a brick at my TV. Why should France help with America's hissy-fit? And don't get me stared when Bubba Ray goes "We hate them because they're French!", as if that was a completely justifiable reason (I really don't think that's what Bubba Ray thought, but it just came out really wrong).

Anyway if the fans boo I will really be saddened. Maybe they could have a translator come in and reveal that Khasrow wasn't cursing America, but praising it, which then forces the RAW fans, etc. to "apologize" to Muhammad Hassan. Then we can see a heel turn. It isn't a "We hate America so you hate us" gimmick, it's more of a "You hate us, so we hate you" gimmick.

Actually the crowd didn't boo until they said "Praise Allah" at the end. Personally, every time I see him and he says "Don't judge me" I'm like "Ok." and then he keeps talking, and I'm like "Ok, just shut up and show a match or something..." and then they go though the translation and I get bored and hate him so I'll have something to do.

Alienoid, HE IS A HEEL. Come on, he's an Arab who stresses praising Allah. You're asking to get booed in America with a gimmick like that. He's been getting tremendous heat at house shows for doing this little ritual before matches where he prays.

Persian's aren't Arabs, Persians distrust Arabs.
I'm not trying to sound like a dick but I'm not Arabic, we don't speak Arabic, we speak Farsi.
Sorry to take this out on you LC because I know you don't mean it in a harmful way.

Merci

He has been getting heat, but since he's been on RAW, he's been completely innocent and faceish. At the moment I'd call him a face getting race related heat. That could all change when he actually debuts, though.
