....El Mahdi.
Of course, the person with the name as long as the Nile River is the actor who plays Julian Bashir, who thankfully shortened his name to Alexander.
His Wiki article states that he was born in Sudan of an English mother and a Sudanese father. I take it that his father is Arabic and not black. The Sudanese Arabs run that country and are killing the blacks in Darfur and elsewhere for oil and power. Maybe if his mother left him in Africa, he would now be an oil warlord with four wives and lots of shotguns. Or not. Moving on....
Is he a practicing Muslim? Are there any Hollywood actors who are of the Islamic faith? I would think that the Muslims would object to one of them working in the entertainment industry for a variety of reasons. Alexander seems to be the "Middle Eastern dude" that is called for roles, much like Kal Penn the Indian or the handful of Hispanic and Asian players.
Maybe a good HBO series would be him as a single man who has to juggle his social/sex life against being a Muslim. Somewhat like Big Love with the Mormons.
He seems for some reason like women who are older than him, which is a bit odd since he was kind of the male "eye candy" if it were. Nana Vistor is eight years older than him. He was also involved with Kim Cattrell who is 9 years older than him.
Personally, I think he is a positive face to what Middle Eastern people and Muslim people are like, instead of the violent negativity that is shown on the nightly news in the United States.
I wonder who ended the marriage between him and Nana Visitor. If Nana was anything like Kira pissed off, I am sure he split pretty quickly. Maybe it is because he was the younger of the two and was riding a wave of movie parts earlier in the decade because of his ethnicity. A lot of show business marriages break up when one of them is doing better professionally than the other. It is really not bad advice to never marry with someone of your own work background because it usually causes friction at home.
They gave their kid the name Django El Tahir El Siddig. I wonder what the "El" is for? If I knew the father and son, I would call Alex "El" and the kid "El Junior". I wonder if he has an English name?
