Review: Lord's Song in a Strange Land -- Movie that discusses anti-Arab hatred in the US
Now, one doesn't have to read Edward Said to understand that when the news media uses the term "Arab world" it suggests that Arabs, somehow by breed, are separate from Westerners and exist in some other non-democratic dimension. Bill O'Reilly (Dembowski's favorite whipping boy) even says, "killing somebody there is not the same as killing somebody here." Viewers also learn from the Israeli Consulate General that they should fear the "cult of death that Palestinians have created" and that Palestinians "idealize and glorify death."
