Stereotyping is a ... $!#&@!!

on Banned VW Commercial

HA HA .... !

what was the director thinking??!
when will this ever be over? are we walking terrorists now!
each Arab and Muslim has a stamp on his forehead that says BOMBER!
i just think this is so unfair :(

its not our falt the world doesnt read or know what Islam is about.
im just pissed right now.... i really want to know, can we do anything about it?

I think it was a good commercial, but the man shouldn't have been shown as an arab.

I guess the commercial was banned to steer away from any more boycotts. It would have been interesting to see though how kuwaitis would have boycotted german cars :P

Danah said...

Banned? Hmm, I wonder why?

I agree with Marzouq, it will always happen. Ilmushkila ina a lot of people think that this is what Islam tells us to do. Will they ever stop thinking that Arabs are terrorists? Maybe. But I doubt that'll happen anytime soon.

first off..glad your back to your old self...and feeling healthy..:)

the commerical was just...rough and well...personally i enjoy seeing commericals and what directors gone to an extent to do and how much more creative they've gotten...but this one makes me angry and just want to change the channel..i thought we all were supposed to care about others and such...here all they seem to be doing is encouraging others to do the same as that man...and this is just plain....distasteful...

the case is your either with us or against us! all the countries u mentioned are doing what the media wanted them to do, so theyd be accepted.

Nouph said...

Hey.
Slamtk b3d el za7ma, that's one :)
two, nice blog you got here :)

Three:
Streotyoing never stops, I don't like it, but sometime I do it '3a9b 3alay, I guess it's human nature.

I honestly didn't see the commercial, but I do think that everyone should make a stand for what he believes in, and if it's offensive, boycott VW -isn't this what we do best ;)-

Bella Color said...

awal shay 7medallah 3ala salmatich... nawartay il blogsphere :)

the commerical was funny but at the same time offensive. 7abebti dont 4get what happened to them b/c of the arabs. I agree its wrong to sterotype bas allah ya3afi il media ili made the westerners loook at us in this way. If only the media portrays the goood the arabs and muslims, then hathe ma kan 7alna...

It neeeds time to change the way of their thinking... the change is starting... :-) Everything will change, just give it time. :)

stereotyping is everywhere... It is here in kuwait big time between some simple minded ppl.

elshee3e stereotypes el sunni (espicially the relgious sunni) and the sunni stereotypes elshee3ee.. el-e7there steroetypes the budwee and vice versa.

i must say though one should not look and label ppl but must look at what that person stands for.

Mabrook ya ahal kuwait ibwa7datkom against those who want coruption. I see the lebral standing next to an islamist all fighting the corupt 3+1. Shee3e next to sunni and vice versa fighting the corupt gov.

It is a well known fact that goverments love sterotyping. why you may ask? Simple, So they would be busy fighting against each other whilst the gov does it wants and steals whatever it wants.

Sajlow mo"9ef fee majlis 2006. Sajlow maw"9ef against stereotyping and that il-kuwat o ahalha eeed wa7da ....she3e sunni e7'6ere ibdowi. vote for those who fight corruption.
