More news from the You're Playing Into His Hands Department. The militant Palestinian organisation ridiculed by Sacha Baron Cohen in Brünohas threatened to do something or other to the brave comic.

“We reserve the right to respond in the way we find suitable against this man,” a spokesman for the humourless guerrillas raved. “The movie was part of a conspiracy against the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade. According to what we checked, there was no meeting about the real context of the film. This was a dirty use of our brother Ayman.”

Since you ask, Ayman Abu Aita was the fellow who scowled when Brüno compared Osama Bin Laden to a “dirty wizard”.
