Humorous look at Islamists

Dear Reader,

The following was postponed by R.I.P. here on diablog.

A while ago I saw the very first movie, that makes fun of islamistic terrorists, Four Lions, from 2010. And I do recommend you watch it.


It is almost a decade now, that we have allowed ourself to be terrorized. It was high time for a movie about it and Four Lions is great.
In my humble opinion we are more terrorized by governments and politicians then islamists, but that is addressed in the movie as well.

Why see it?
The movie will make you laugh a lot. Some laughter will get stuck in your throat. The movie follows the tradition of Monty Python. The humor is disrespectful and critical. You will see your false political correctness revealed. You will catch your prejudicial thoughts and hopefully come to new conclusions.
The movie also reveals how our governments helplessly "fight terrorism" through stupid initiatives like CCTV. And how those initiatives terrorize us more, then actual terrorists.

The movie is not a big budget production, but you can expect excellent acting. Overall, I had a grand time and hope, so will you.

Stay tuned,
Engine Room

Dear Al ER, we have had four lions on our national team's shirts for years!

Actually Glynsky there are only 3 lions on the badge. We would not expect you to know this as you support a Club with a French Manager and hardly any English players.
