POP-Culture Monday where we will discuss ASSASSIN’S CREED.

To become a true Assassin you must "Follow the Creed".

All of us watched as a political leader was assassinated last week in Pakistan. The assassination of Benazir Bhutto is being discussed by analysts and the general public alike all over the world.

We hear the term assassin so often in the War on Terror that it has become common place. In the new accepted view of how wars are to be fought, is the assassination of political targets a viable just cause. Where does Islam stand on assassination?

Microsoft XBOX 360 and Playstation fans have been enjoying a new game called Assassin's Creed. The game reveals the story of Al-Tair and his missions as an assassin during the time of the Christian crusades.

If you are a fan of the game or interested in the history of the Hashashin, then call into the show and share your thoughts!

To become a true Assassin you must Follow the Creed.

Take a Leap of Faith as we Talk about Islam.

Battlestar Galactica BSG Razor: War Terrorism Jihad and Homosexuality

Finally. Battlestar Galactica Razor. Galactica_ships

If you are a science fiction Sci-Fi fan you have probably heard of the new Battlestar Galactica TV Show.

Like many fans of the show I was waiting anxiously to get any kind of BSG fix! Razor does not disappoint.

It was a amazing to see how well the writers did with the script. It does make you think that the writer's strike does have some merit.

Razor gives the fans enough of the old school BSG, talking about fate, destiny and the Jihad between the Cylons and the humans, while still bringing in a new story of Kendra Shaw.

You can listen to the live  Pop-Culture Radio show about BSG Razor.
Discussing how War Terrorism and Pop-culture converge from the Islamic view.

J J Abrams Picks Muslim to be Captain Kirk in New Star Trek Film

Captain's B-Log 

(HotConflict Date 10.900)

Well obviously that has not happened. J J Abrams the new director of theJames_kirk_on_captains_chair latest Start Trek film has not put a Muslim in as Captain James T Kirk. As a matter of fact he has not even let the actor William Shatner who originally played the character to be in the film. There was talk of Shatner making an appearance, as Leonard Nimoy has already signed on to appear in the film. Nimoy will be reprising his role as the Vulcan alien Spock.

I have been wondering what it would be like to get a Muslim to play captain of the Enterprise. Start Trek has always been on the cutting edge of race relations and gender taboos. The crew on the deck of Enterprise had a Russian, Checkov. There was a Japanese engineer in Sulu and a Swahili African communications officer in Uhura. Not to mention the fact that the main science officer was an alien from the planet Vulcan.

Even with all of that, is it too difficult to include a Muslim on the Enterprise? Imagine having the new Enterprise lead by a Muslim. The current world conflict, as we are portrayed is between Islam and the West. America has always been able to bridge gaps and spread our ideals by the culture of America. Start Trek is the essence of  American pop-cultural. The original Star Trek and the character of James T Kirk are iconic.

Imagine having a Muslim, who represents Islam in a positive light in the Captain's chair. It would have to be someone who understands the conflict going on in the religious world. Someone who can be a shining example of change. Someone who has confidence and a strong moral character. The captain of the Enterprise is someone who has such a deep understanding of people and nations. Having a Muslim who can easily communicate the differences between religions, people, nation, cultures.

Where do you find a person who can discuss the differences in theology, while also being well versed in foreign policy. Someone who can negotiate with different cultures in the world, while also understanding the prime directive of non-interference with the development of other planets.

Are there any Muslims in the US who are able to pull off the role as Captain of the USS Enterprise?

God, I hope so!

Listen this this audio of a show I did relating to Islam and Star Trek.

Analysis: Start Trek - Spectre of the Gun

Well in reality the new Kirk has just been chosen. His name is Chris Pine.

Here is a picture of the old crew and the new actors that will portray them.
