MUSLIMS AND THE ISLAMIC FAITH'S WAR AGAINST JABBA THE HUT

The Turkish Muslims living in Austria has a bone to pick with the Legos Jabba the Hut playset.  It turns out that the Lego toy Jabba the Hut playset...
 
 ...looks just like the Beirut, Lebanon located Jami al-Kabir...
...And the Istanbul, Turkey located Hagia Sofia.
Legos spokesperson, Katharina Sasse, told reporters that the legos playset was taken brick by brick straight from the film.

And all the Jabba the Hut and the planet Tatooine scenes were filmed on location in the Middle Eastern nation of Tunisia.  So if Jabba the Hut's palace looked like a Middle Eastern mosque, it's because it was probably filmed in a Middle Eastern located building that once was used as a Mosque.  However, the fact that Jabba the Hut was a criminal, a terrorist, a slave trader, a drug dealer, operating illegal bounty hunting and all sorts of other crimes from inside a Mosque-like building wasn't meant to be an insult against Middle Eastern people.  The Mosque-like building in Tunisia was probably the cheapest building that George Lucas could rent for the day for the Jabba the Hut scenes.  Still, the Muslim Turkish population of Austria continues to picket Legos because they don't like the Middle Eastern cultural behavior of evil Sith Lord allied Jabba the Hut.
