Bombing of Agrabah.

[lurker172602]

In a recent poll, American voters were asked whether they were in favour of bombing the city of Agrabah.

Evidently, some American voters are convinced Agrabah is some of diabolical real-world place where enemies are plotting the downfall of the United States. And as long as it sounds sort of vaguely Middle Eastern, that’s all that matters.

What’s wrong with these findings? Oh that’s right. Agrabah is a fictional city located only in Disney’s Aladdin.

News-dot-com-au

btw, before anyone gets upset, I'm not having a go at Americans. I'm having a go at stupid.

I was just going to ask the exact same thing. America is always an easy target.

We're not as trigger happy, She-ele, and tend to have a greater awareness  of the wider

world.

Tosh, we  have the great unwashed ignoramous’ here too.

We are not exempt, all you have to do is read  some posters on here.

It is a real place, diabolical is very much up to the interpretation of the individual.

There's an Agrabah themed display at Disneyland.

Now, never having been there, I'm not in a position to comment on Disneyland, or the Agrabah themed section of the park, but people who have been there, I'm sure, have their own opinions, and if their opinions should lean towards reducing said piece of real estate to rubble, it's not for me to comment.
