Shenanigans!
Sacha Baron Cohen is currently filming a movie based on his gayer than gay character "Bruno" and he's definitely not holding back. Sacha tricked a former Mossad agent and a Palestinian smartie into an interview where he made them discuss the difference between Hamas and hummus.
The two dudes had no idea they were being duped. The Telegraph reports:
In the interview, which took place in Jerusalem, Bruno asked: "What's the connection between a political movement and food? Why hummus?"One of the guests politely explained: "Hamas is a Palestinian Islamist political movement. Hummus is a food."
But Bruno went on: "Ya, but why hummus? Yesterday I threw away my pitta bread because it was dripping hummus. And it's too high in carbohydrates."
He told them: "Your confict is not so bad. Jennifer-Angelina is worse."
And he baffled the pair with a string of questions including: "Why don't you settle the conflict with a time share on the land?", "When will you Jews return the pyramids?" and "Why can't Jews and Hindus get along?"
One of the dudes wasn't that happy when he found out he was tricked by The Cohen. He felt Sacha was "exploiting their tragic conflict," but he knows the movie will probably be funnier "Showgirls." He said, "We'll try to be good sports about it."
Yeah, I'm sure the movie will be a fucking laugh orgy, but the multiple lawsuits that follow will be even funnier.

Um, now you're bringing up the stereotype that ALL Muslims are mysoginistic? Okay, that came out of left field. First the Isreali-Palestinian conflict, the cartoons, and now woman-hating? Hmm, you're right there's no biggotry there.
All you said was: "one time, this happened to my cousin who knew this girl who knew someone else that knew a muslim guy who beat her. So yeah, they're bad." Childish anecdotes to justify prejudices. I don't doubt it happened to you, but so what? That's what you have to say about prejudices? That you've had a bad experience? Blah, blah. Where does the prejudice stop? Do you just pick who it's okay to be prejudiced against based on political climate?
That's like me saying Mexicans never wash and they are chauvinistic and smell. Experience. I have so many stinky lookin' Mexicans blow kisses at me, it's disgusting. I never see a decent one. But do I think Mexicans are all the same? No.
SO many black people are muggers and murderers. Some prejudices come from experience. And Asians are bad drivers. Experience.
NEWSFLASH: ALL STEREOTYPES ARE BASED ON SOME TRUTH. That's old. I'm sorry that happened to you. And I'm so sorry that like many women have experienced, your boyfriend and his friends were assholes. But I find plenty of assholes among every race. Your bad experience is no reason to live off of prejudices against a whole group of humanity.
So what basis did you have for bringing up your story in this discussion other than to say that one group of people is inferior? You made that statement in response to me saying we shouldn't categorize people. So I take it that you are for prejudices and biggotry? Yippeee!

I dated a Muslim male once upon a time. Did he live up to the male chauvinist stereotype? YOU BETCHYA. Him and his Muslim friends 'visiting' America were trying to 'catch' some blonde, blue-eyed beauties from the USA. I rescued one girl who was only 16 that the one rich guy wanted to whisk away to Iraq and when I talked her out of going (she hated her parents and was in a rebellious mode), the Muslim 'brotherhood' kicked me to the curb once they found out I'd talked the young girl out of leaving her country to marry a foreigner.
Sometimes, SOME prejudice comes from experience, raw, real, TRUE experience.
That is all.
KD -
Oh ignorance. What makes you think these are the same people who protested the cartoon? What, is it because they're Muslim? Did you know that not all black people and Jewish people have the same opinions?
Anti-semitism isn't dead, but racism and biggorty against other religions and races is alive and thriving. I have family that went through the Holocaust and we know the moral implications of racism against ALL people, not just Jews. Biggotry against Muslims is the new thing. It's the new black, pun intended.
I can't stand racism or biggotry when I see it no matter who it is against. In WWII, Hitler had everyone believing Jews were a danger to the nation. I wish people would use some critical thinking more often.
When's he gonna lay off of being a Jew? Everything is about him being Jewish. It's obnoxious.
When he did the thing about Kazakhstan and how they hated Jews, that was offensive.
I'm part Jewish and even I'm sick of it. There are so many other groups equally, if not more oppressed and they don't have TV time. If you're gonna say something against racism in your schtick, don't label whole groups of people "anti-semitic", like the whole country of Kazakhstan, all Muslims, and Arabs.
jinksie, you're a NYC lawyer and you say things like "little more laxer". wow. the bar must be set much lower than we thought.

"First of all, he's modern orthodox, which is a little more laxer and more secular than traditional orthodox. I grew up modern orthodox. It means you still keep kosher and the sabbath, but you wear jeans and watch regular TV and movies, etc.
A lot of orthodox men do not feel comfortable wearing the yalmulke (or kippah as we call it) in the secular world. Indeed, I'm a lawyer in NYC and I have 3 orthodox male friends at my firm who don't feel comfortable wearing their kippahs to work. At all. And they are lawyers in New York "Hymietime" City!!! Because of anti-semitism and ignorance, many modern orthodox will only wear the kippah around their circles.
Lasly, Isla converted to Orthodox Judaism before she had the baby and I believe they are already married (but haven't publicly disclosed it). Just because they had sex before marriage doesn't mean he's not orthodox. In fact, I'm currently sleeping with a modern orthodox guy...and we aren't married :)"

Well, where I'm from, that's not heard of, but if you say it's possible, then I'll believe you. :)
Laugh orgy is fucking right, Bruno is his best persona by far 9though I do love Ali G and Borat) I am completely going to piss myself during this entire movie. This man is a total genius, I always feel sorry for those who don't get his humour.
Shit, I thought that photo was of Marc Jacobs.
i hope this movie is better than Borat but somehow i dont think so

yeah and so much of is weird guy imposing on others.
I thought he was funny in talladega nights. but I only watched a little of borat.
improvised comedy can be really funny, but I think it works better when everyone is in on the joke. like on reno 911.
"Ali G in da House" and the Ali G show were the funniest sh-t. Borat not so much. I'll be surprised if Bruno doesn't end up being a bust. Some of those fashion people are idiots though. I mean self deluded idiots. So maybe it will be funny.

Could you prove that because I highly doubt it. Orthodox men cover their heads and do not get women pregnant out of wedlock. :)

Cripes, for a second I thought that was Travis Barker
LOL! So did I.
First of all, Sascha Baron Cohen is not only Jewish, he's Orthodox and I believe his mother is Israeli-Persian. Also, I speak Hebrew and in "Borat" when he speaks in Kazack he's actually speaking in Hebrew...and it's really funny because its just nonesense.
If there's one thing I know, its that Sascha loves Israel and the Jews. As such, all the anti-semetic jokes in Borat were quite obviously his way of showing that anti-semitism is not only alive and well, its sometimes condoned in America. I think America needed a wakeup call because for some reason people think that anti-semitism died in the Holocaust.
I felt very awkward watching Borat due to the antisemitic comments.
But, it's a comedy and, IMO, shows parts of the US, and the people that live here, that I and alot of others, never see.

I'm a Sacha Baron Cohen fan but this is too much. It reminds me of "Don't mess with the Zohan". The middle east conflict is not funny. :P
"Sacha tricked a former Mossad agent and a Palestinian smartie into an interview where he made them discuss the difference between Hamas and hummus."
"One of the dudes wasn't that happy when he found out he was tricked by The Cohen."
- "Former" for a reason.
"Smartie" = delicious candy....mmmm, candy.
