1977 Movie

Lego Model

Why, after 35 years, scream racism now?

Because, the "mosque" in Istanbul (which use to be Constantinople) was a Christian church before the invading Muslims converted it to a mosque. Under Ataturk - when Turkey was a modern secular nation - it was coverted to a museum.

Now that Turkey is again ruled by Islamists, while "officially" the building remains a museum, its re-Islamization appears to be beginning.

My verdict: Pound Sand!

...depicted Asians and Orientals as people with “deceitful and criminal personalities.”

Where muslims are concerned, the shoe fits.

That was a 1983 movie. So their rage is only thirty years late.

And I'd think if they were going to be offended by an image from Star Wars, it'd be this one:

Right. The Turks didn’t even BUILD the thing. They just added the minarets. The Greeks built it.

The West should have converted it back in 1918 and given it to the Ecumenical Patriarch. That’s what we would have done once upon a time when we had guts.

Now the Muzzies are offended that there’s too much a likeness to one of their stolen properties.

The muslim Turks should apologize for their brutal conquests of Christian lands in Anatolia and Eastern Europe. They should also apologize for their more recent attempts to reconquer the Balkans, and even Germany and Austria!!!!

Then they should get back to Central Asia where they belong, and take their Albanian and Bosnian muslim protégées with them!!!!

That was my first thought. Hagia Sophia is a Church. Oh the irony that they would be offended!

Two items. One, the Lego model doesn't look anything like Hagia Sophia mosque. I know because I've been there. Two, Hagia Sophia mosque was a Christian church long before the Ottomans.

I wish I could remember how to say eat sh#t and die in Turkish.

The toy doesn’t look anything like the Hagia Sophia. The “criminal and deceitful” personalities were part of the film. This is nonsense.

When can we expect a crusades set? Perhaps somebody could get it right this time.

What’s interesting is that the architecture of the peaceful people of Naboo is much more Hagia Sohpia-esque.
