Achmed the Dead Terrorist

Matthew reminded me of the ups and downs of Achmed the Dead Terrorist, a puppet show by ventriloquist Jeff Dunham. I thought that South Africa had somehow banned the video of his show. However, it turns out that what happened was that the South African Advertising Standards Authority banned a ringtone commercial featuring Dunham and Achmed because it was offensive to Muslims. Here's a news report on the incident which contains a link to the video. Enjoy!
