Brüno's a Terroristic Threat??

Sasha Baron Cohen goes to extreme lengths to get his comedy across...that's what made him famous. Unsurprisingly, however, Cohen has upset another party--this time, a Palestinian group on the U.S. government's terrorist list**--due to their unwanted spotlight in his movie "Brüno," released July 10th.

The Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the Palestinian group in question, stated to WorldNetDaily.com that they have the right to react to Cohen in any way they deem appropriate.** Aaron Klein, a representative of WorldNet, told ABC News that he was unsure of the statement's validity, but that the government should handle this with care.

Sasha Baron Cohen has yet to comment.
