quote: ORIGINAL: LookieNoNookie quote: ORIGINAL: Kirata Lego to Cease Production of the Popular "Jabba's Palace" Toy Set [image]http://cbshartford.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/lego.jpg[/image] Muslim groups in Austria claimed "Jabba’s Palace" was anti-Muslim as it showed popular "Star Wars" character Jabba the Hut in a mosque-like lair with a hookah, guns and an imprisoned Chewbacca. "This sort of thing does not belong in a child’s bedroom," Melissa Gunes, spokeswoman for Austria’s Turkish Cultural Association, told The Independent. "The game is pedagogical dynamite. It depicts Muslims as terrorists." RT News reports that Muslim critics felt "Jabba’s Palace" looked like the Hagia Sophia and the Jami al-Kabir mosques. Lego claims that the criticism has nothing to do with its decision, saying that the product was planned from the beginning to be in their assortment of Star Wars products only until the end of 2013. Nevertheless, they have cancelled their production run after only three months and issued a statement expressing their regrets. K. I've always wondered why no one ever set up a coffee stand called "Java, the Hut". Knowing how porn movies are its probably already been used as a porn movie title.

I suspect any pornographer who dared would get sued into oblivion by the notoriously vindictive dickhead George Lucas.

The Haga Sofia is a christian temple, muslims just copied the design. And Jabba would certainly be a muslim since he has a Harem.[:D]

Seriously, why the heck does anyone care what these people think when it approaches this degree of lunacy. Saying all Muslims are evil is wrong and I'd get protests over that. Portraying Muslims wrongly in cartoons or other media i get but Jabba is an alien. An alien that lives on an alien planet that does not speak Arabic or Farsi. Was some influence used in depicting his lair and such. Yeah so what? I've got plenty to use from history to teach my kids my views on Islam, I don't need Star Wars to help. I just open a history book. So what's next we start banning history books. One group wanted to ban the movie "300" because it was anti-Iranian. Iran didn't exist till the 1900s. The movie depicted Persians, granted in a historically inaccurate fashion but Frank Miller admitted that openly from the beginning. I mean if the Muslims get away with this then the Passion of the Christ needs to be banned for its horrible and inaccurate depiction of Jews. Granted I have a fuck Islam outlook on life. Live and let live, but don't bitch about your asshurt and expect me to give a damn. Bending over for this shit gives me all the reason no to buy Legos products.

You're probably a bit old for lego at this point, anyway. [;)]

I am wondering why we are focusing on Islam. The Cathloic Church up until 1966 had Index Librorum Prohibitorum or Index of Prohibited Books, at one time the Bible was banned from personal possession.

Do you wonder why? All religion is about harnassing power to fight the unbeliever with force. Jabba is a fat Caliph in their perception who fucks his chained harem in the Haga Sofia. I say they have a point. The first Caliph was a fat warmongering bastard with many wives to sprout his demonic ofspring to conquer the world by force.
