Those scenes from 24 came to my mind as well.

Though not a movie, this past season of 24 (Season 7), portrayed the fact that there are Muslims in America who are just seeking to lead a peaceful life, and who DO practice forgiveness. Jack Bauer even requested the Muslim imam he met to come and pray for him in the hospital!

I also concur with those who mentioned Traitor….great movie which showed many different kinds of Muslims.

I was just going to suggest traitor, Cheadle did a wonderful job.

Hi Dustin,

I watched an interesting movie a bit ago called Traitor – a RebBox gamble. It works up as an action/suspense film that tries to get underneath the personality of the hero – where does his ultimate loyalty rest? Traitor? To Whom?

Thanks for your work in setting this up! Very good stuff.
