Clooney said he experienced a personal revelation when "Syriana" was filming in Morocco during the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan. Clooney said he was stunned to see the entire city come to a standstill during prayer time.

"Anyone that thinks that you could just go and bomb this idea out of people's heads hasn't sat on the top of a building and looked at a group of people who had absolutely nothing but their beliefs in their religion"

--George Clooney
