Moustapha Akkad, Producer of Halloween Franchise, Killed In Jordanian BombingsHe was attending a wedding with his daughter. It's possible his killing will further alienate moderate Muslims: Akkad also produced and directed "The Message" (1976), a film about Islam's prophet, Mohammed, and "Lion of the Desert" (1981), which tells the story of a Muslim rebel who fought against the Italy's World War II conquest of Libya. Both starred Anthony Quinn. Then again, black Muslims protested the showing of The Message in America, so maybe not. Thanks to Salomeh. posted by Ace at 02:43 PM
CommentsJust curious, 'black muslims' or friendly chaps from the Nation of Islam? Posted by: NateB on November 11, 2005 03:25 PM
"Lion of the Desert" is a way cool movie. Oliver Reed plays General Graziani who Mussolini (Rod Steiger) sends to Lybia to put down an Arab rebellion led by Anthony Quinn. Khadaffi funded it, so there was a lot of money for detailed Italian armored cars and proto-tanks and a cast of thousands for huge battle scenes. Great stuff, although long and preachy. Still, can't beat armored columns having it out with Arab nomads. A shame about Akkad, who directed the movie, too. There's a tribute to his daughter who doed in the blast as well over at Roger Simon's place: http://www.rogerlsimon.com/mt-archives/2005/11/terrorism_close.php Posted by: mputtre on November 11, 2005 03:27 PM
That's okay. When nobody's looking, he'll just sit up, grab the nearest machete, and start strangling coeds. Posted by: cirby on November 11, 2005 03:28 PM
Can't vouch for this website's accuracy, but it is consistent with half-remembered stuff from some bad movie book I read once. I don't think I'd mourn for Akkad too much, assuming it's correct. http://www.lukeford.net/profiles/profiles/moustapha_akkad.htm Posted by: John Nowak on November 11, 2005 10:46 PM

ANOTHER LEFT WING ASSASSIN ATTEMPTS TO KILL TRUMP
If I understand this, the left-wing Democrat assassin attempted to get into the White House Correspondents Association dinner, and was stopped at the magnetometers, which detected his gun. I guess he pulled out the gun and was shot by Secret Service agents. Erika Kirk was present.

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this. He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again. You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.
People say that the bearded man in the video of Fartwell molesting a hooker looks like Democrat Arizona Senator Rueben Gallego, said to be Swalwell's "best friend" and known to take vacations with him.
