Jamie Farr is Arab.


Should he be deported?

reply

Ah, but a Christian Arab. Now what do you think?

reply

Thank you. I think you should post on this thread and tell this idiot that all Arabs are not Muslim:

imagine saying that you know more than me, after claiming 10% of "palestine" is christian. hahahahaha

I think he is of Lebanese descent, so is Paul Anka.

reply

And Marlo Thomas and Casey Kasem. A lot of famous Lebanese-Americans.

reply

Kathy Nijimy as well.

👍

Ralph Nader too.

The anti-Arab and anti-Muslim hysteria needs to be countered. Arab-Americans have always been an integral part of our society.

reply

I know. Middle Eastern people, mainly Syrians and Lebanese have been part of the American landscape since the 19th century. A Syrian immigrant invented the ice cream cone at the St. Louis World's fair in 1904 for starters.

reply

Weird that you mention Marlo and not her more famous father.

reply

I know about her father of course. But I figure nowadays everyone is more familiar with Marlo.

reply

He's an American guy from Toledo, Ohio, and he's Christian.

reply

You are not too smart.... 😂

reply

Duh wuh?

reply

Only if he's not wearing a dress

reply

He really should wear a burka.

reply

Interestingly, he was billed as Jameel Farah (his real name) in The Blackboard Jungle.

reply

I had completely forgotten he was in "The Blackboard Jungle". Saw it years and years ago. Farr has a stronger resume than most of us knew.
