Can you help??
I have noticed that when you trade with the arabs they so often go back on there word and attack you after a few turns, I have enclosed a screenshot as an example.

That's a bit racist and inappropriate in my opinion. But I'll let the Moderators (if they're ever around) decide whether or not this should be ignored.

Dictionary term of Racism:

1: The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
2: Discrimination or prejudice based on race.

My post was neither, so your post was inappropriate, not mine.

Any way US does not consider Arabs to be anything but white race, look at the census. Abrabians are not a race.
caucasians and blacks are examples of racial traits.

I'd suggest that you don't accept that deal. After all, your adult check gold passwords are far more valuable than the al-qaeda training videos.

My apologies. I did not mean to sound like a total jack@$$ there.

I was a bit perturbed by the useage of Bin Laden as a representative of the Arab people. It is a really touchy issue and it would certainly offend Arabs or Muslims.

I'm a bit edgy after a deliberately racist cartoon was published in my school newspaper.

Every culture group probably has a use for animals in insults.

We use horses for sexual puns in Chinese.

Just kidding!
