[QUOTE]Originally posted by Nim the Fanciful: [QB] Indeed there are many, "True Lies" being my favorite nominee in that group. And "Cannonball Run". [i]"Ah! Too much cous-cous!!"[/i] :( But I thought "The Siege" managed to keep the debate very clean, with Tony Shalhoub as a counterweight muslim to the antagonists of the movie, used very wisely as a lesson to the west that "there are other muslims than the fanatics". As a palestinian, Shalhoub's character got in a few good licks in on the israelis' persecution of them in Israel (the civilian palestinians, that is). The movie also showed, through outright critique by General Deveraux (Willis) that the army was a blunt instrument where precision attacks by antiterrorist special forces was required. Considering that this movie was made three years prior to 9/11, I think it is a brilliant entry in the debate, it received far to little accolade. [/QB][/QUOTE]
