Well, the show depicts largely terrorists and criminals. Activists apparently want long diatribes about how wonderful Arab and Muslim families are to &quot;balance&quot; it out.<p>Homeland isn&#x27;t a documentary. Its a dramatic show about national security and as such it will probably not paint a realistic picture of the average Muslim, because average Muslims aren&#x27;t really what its supposed to portray. The same way professional wresting doesn&#x27;t portray the average man&#x27;s body or reality tv about wealthy people doesn&#x27;t portray the average person&#x27;s lifestyle.
