Hey, its not just the 9/11 victims they offended...what about the Muslims who aren't terrorists who wre seen in a negative light? And what about the Mexicans they offended with the Mexi-cools? And what about the Smurfs they offended by having the bWo on the show? What about those people?
It's fucking wrestling. The WWE has done tasteless entertainment for the better part of 30 years. If you're sensitive, stop watching. |

I agree, it wasn't the best timing. it was a little extreme, but weren't the people that are offended by this the same people who were bitching about wrestling being too soft. ie no piledrivers, vertabreakers, screwdrivers ect. not enough HARDCORE wrestling. hassan will get his by ut. it is just wrestling though. If you don't like it, don't watch it.

The answer to the lack of piledrivers isn't bloodshed (For example) on TV. However, if the WWE want to succeed, they have to push the edge. The downside to this is that they're going to step over sometimes. I don't know if this was over the edge or not, but it's NOT as bad as people have made it out to be. It's not even that "edgy." |

cause that was a terrorist act on Smackdown?
I didn't know men in black ski masks were terrorists. They put that warning on the TV for the people who immediately associate that act as a terrorist act just because those guys had black ski masks on and for the whole Hassan is Arab so he must be a terrorist thing. |

2) I spent hours trying to track down two friends in London. I've got friends and family serving in Iraq where al Qaeda's currently beheading people, and I lost of a friend when al Qaeda dropped a building on him and @ 3,000 other people. 3) That being said, I don't think that this segment was as bad as it was made out to be. Or as horrible as you make it out to be. Call me an ass if you want. I've been called worse. |

personally I thought it was the most disgusting thing they'd ever done.
Considering what had happened the day it was broadcast, they should have edited the show, removed Hassan and 'Taker's parts, and either had the show run half an hour short or put in some Velocity matches. It was a stupid segment at the best of times. Considering what happened on the day it was aired, it was a huge mistake to broadcast it. I'd like it if next week, Hassan came out, broke character, and said something about it. |

Haven't they suffered enough? They probably could have truncated this. IT would have been more like 15 minutes of time eaten. IT would have made more sense. But they didn't, and UPN decided to run with it too. |

It's a storyline.
It's wreslting. It's fake. Goodness, they've aired much worse than this. Sure the timing may have been bad but what is done is done. |

Honestly, what's the difference between Muhammad Hassan orchestrating a scripted attack on The Undertaker and any episode of "24?"
Was it stupid to have the Arab-American who rails against racist Americans who assume he's a terrorist come out with what appeared to be a terrorist cell? Absolutely. Was it disgusting, reprehensible, etc.? Absofuckinglutely not. It's a GODDAMN TV SHOW, and nobody thinks otherwise. These are fictional characters portrayed on a fictional TV show that is (loosely) about a sport. And if we get all bent out of shape whenever there's a terrorist act, then we're not doing so hot in that War on Terror, are we? If we have to alter our way of life (avoiding crowded areas, censoring our entertainment, etc.), they're doing their job. |

Well at first I thought it was going too far until I realized this is just going to bring him more heel heat and the writers will hopefully have Hassan getting what he wants.
