Isn't the Axis of Evil in Dubai right now? This is a great
comedy group made up primarily of American standup comics of Middle Eastern
backgrounds (can't say Arab because one is Iranian LOL). They've been showing
clips from performances and also background of their travels and visits in
Dubai, Cairo and so on here on local cable. (Showtime). These guys are
hilarious and right now they are working with a spiky-haired Korean/Japanese
guy called Wonho Chung who is also totally fluent in Arabic because he was
born in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and raised in Jordan. If they are there, you
should try to see them. They have a DVD out from their first tour in the US.
Madiya would really like them because they are, if anything, even funnier in
Arabic than in English.
