    Bruh. Since it is a title, it doesn’t matter who is holding it. Even comics Ra’s Al Ghul doesn’t mind that considering he wants Bruce Wayne to be his heir.

      Yes, again, you can come up with that convoluted after-the-fact explanation that wasn’t in the movie or you can not piss off Arab people.

        I don’t think not being typecast as terrorists pisses off arabs

          Good thing the character isn’t a terrorist then. The head of a cult of assassins is not a terrorist. Assassins target specific people for specific reasons, not to create terror.

              I thought we were talking about a character that’s the head of a league of assassins, not the actual plot of the movie. You know that the movie didn’t have to have that plot, right? You realize it’s not some sort of requirement to make that specific Batman story, yes?

                …What even is your point? In almost every iteration Ra’s al Ghul is trying to destroy Gotham (or Star City in case of CW’s Arrow). He’s absolutely a terrorist.

                  Apart from the many, many, many Batman stories where he isn’t.

                  He even teams up with Batman sometimes.

                  Maybe the problem here is you don’t actually read the comics.

                    OK, do the analysis of how many stories/continuities/universes have him as a terrorist vs how many have him as an ally. If you can split the latter criteria into ‘was never a terrorist’, ‘was a terrorist but is now a repentant ally’, ‘never even murdered anyone’ then even better.

                    Include pie chart if possible.

            Given assassin actions by definition are terror attacks, I’ll disagree with you.

              Please show me that definition. Assassinations are generally not done to cause terror. They are done to achieve more specific political goals (i.e. get the guy in power out of power).

                So the same definition of terrorism, i.e. specific actions done to further political goals. You’re mad for no reason here
