A Saudi Prince Is Using Video Games To Fuel An Intellectual Renaissance in the Middle East

Terrorist, cartoon stereotype, evil oppressive dictator.

I really hate how people accuse the whole middle eastern people of being terrorist where only a hand full of people were involved.. terrorism has been caused by a lot of different countries and races but we dont blame them because a terrorist doesnt belong to any race or nation. Interesting article

I'm personally offended by the thoughts of Americans thinking of everyone in the middle east as a terrorist since I'm an ESL teacher, and at most of my students are from Saudi Arabia. When I think about my students whom I care for, and the perceptions of many Americans have towards them, it makes me both sad and angry.

How do you feel about American volunteers trying to help people being kidnapped, tortured, killed, ect... Just because they are American?

It goes both ways and each side should be equally offended when stereotyped in a demeaning manner but they shouldn't allow it to turn into violent acts against innocent people.

[stragomccloud]

I agree. It goes both ways. Journalists and volunteers are not themselves the countries they hail from.

They probably shouldn't have released a game called Run Camel Run if they don't want to be stereotyped.

Amazing how something positive gets turned into everything related to racism and stereotyping everyone who is Muslim or middle-eastern.

Any nation, culture, group can be critised to high heaven,the difference is its usually only one in the spotlight.

So now all of a sudden ppl are terrorism experts on a gaming website?? I don't know if this is funny or pathetic. What other countries stone to death women and children?? They stone men also it's like the death penalty here but more horrific and shouldn't be condone either way. And the idea that terrorism is Islamic Is funny so does is the u.s a terrorist country since it is a Christian nation and it did wage an illegal unprovoked war in Iraq?! Its very telling that the only ppl that have an opinion on this topic have no degrees and most if not all have never travelled outside the country.

So I guess by your logic if everyone in the Middle East is a terrorist then every one in USA is a KKK member, a slave owner and a terrorist. at least the did not drop an atomic bomb on another country.

Religion is poison

Too bad secular humanism is proving to be the kiss of death for the West.

First of all, Saudi Arabians are Muslims (at least 99% of them) and Muslims don't wear necklaces.

Secondly, This "prince" is up to something. He wants "equal rights" and feminism views to come to Saudi Arabia which will be backfired on him because we're all religious here.

Finally, He wants you to believe that the women in here are treated like animals or prejudiced or other media propaganda BS that the rest of the world keeps spouting about Muslims.

The women in Saudi Arabia are treated with care and respect. That's why there are no strip clubs in KSA.
