      Albanians and Turks are White to me.I love the Palestinians and all Arabs.
      The jews are to be ignored,they are evil..but at least they are White.
      I love ALL Berbers and the Janjaweed are brave.I am an Irish-American Catholic..beware of blacks.Can the Janjaweed stop the South African blacks from murdering,raping little White babies on Afrikaner farms.American leaders are evil
      I like Liam Neeson so..
      In America gangs of cowardly blacks have been killing White people for 50 years and getting away with it..BUT the Superior Whites and Arabs are organized
      so the war will come.

        I just feel like Hollywood presumes their whole audience is white, American and Western.
        Well, let them have an all-white audience. No need to support xenophobic Western entertainment industry by watching their stupid xenophobic action films.
        Come on, what did you actually expect from a film like Taken 2? Did you expect something like Malcolm X? Battle of Algiers? Land and Freedom?

          Yes yes it is xenophobic to have a film about a real phenomenon. Seems muslim's don't like owning their own issues.

            I would have to disagree!! Women kidnapped by sex-traffickers is a very painful butt realistic thing that goes on in the world. his friend jean Claude was right when he said that people from 3rd world countries see democaracies has somthing to be exploited!!
            Thank You

              The thing that just got to me was the depictions of Turkey and Muslims, which was silly and covertly (or maybe overtly?) racist..
              Is Muslim a race now?

                Nah. The depiction of Muslims seem reasonable and not far-fetched for me.

                    Agree, the film did feel Islamophobic.

                      I don't even remember the kidnappers being Muslim in the first film
                      Then maybe you should have paid attention given that their Islamic tatoo was a crucial point in Liam tracking them down.
                      Like AS IF these kidnapping brothel running rapists would give a damn about praying and religion.
                      Given that the most atrocious war currently going on is directly the result of a group of people giving too much of a damn about their religion - yes.
                      Then they go to Turkey and you hear the call to prayer and it's like some kind of ominous warning of what's to come. I dunno if any of you guys have heard the call to prayer in a Muslim country but let me tell you, it's beautiful. I bet even the most ignorant Islamophobes would be a little bit moved by it. It's not scary.
                      Ive been to turkey and call to prayer is heard pretty much everywhere quite often. Its YOU who associated it with bad. I dont agree with it being beautiful, more like annoying. but thats just my opinion.
                      And THEN, omg, what was with all the face-covering Turkish women? Seriously.. in Turkey? Anyone been to Turkey? Anyone?
                      It happens. ive seen plenty of them walking around when i was in Turkey. Also Turkey women fought tooth and nail for the right to use them while at university classes even.
                      And they're staring back at her with an empty look in their eyes.. What was that trying to imply?
                      I understood it as locals knowing better than to interfere with mafia lest they get killed. clearly your interpretation was more sinister.
                      Please tell me, am I being crazy? Am I too sensitive?
                      Im afraid the diagnosis is crazy.
                      Applied Science? All science is applied. Eventually.
