I'll take your word for it.

If this show turns out to be politically incorrect, though, and actually blames Muslims for being terrorists, rather than inventing some other excuse to exonerate Muhammed of all responsibility, I'll eat my hat.

I can think of all sorts of possibilities: 1) These are not REAL Muslims, and will be repudiated by their Imam; 2) They are not really motivated by their religion, but by poverty, deprivation, and American discrimination; 3) One or more of them is certifiably and inexplicably insane, and has dragged the others off course.

It would simply not be possible on TV to blame the Qran and the teachings of Islam for their behavior.

Yes and no. It portrays the terrorists as somewhat sympathetic in the beginning but then something happens (I don't want to give it away) that destroys any sympathy anyone might have had.

This series looks good to me. I plan to watch it all.
