FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida (CNN)  -- Standing onstage, comedian Aron Kader describes how his cousin in the Middle East likes to curse the United States -- in English. Maz Jobrani (left) says Middle Easterners get a bad rap in the media. Ahmed Ahmed has the name of a "most-wanted" terrorist. "Arabs love to cuss in English," Kader belts out. "They cuss their heads off in English, but they won't do it in Arabic because then God can hear them." The audience, two-thirds of Mideast descent, explodes in laughter. Kader is a member of the "Axis of Evil" comedy group, a collection of comics with Mideast roots who have formed a niche by taking on Mideast stereotypes and making subjects such as war, terrorism and suicide bombers funny.

"That gets a laugh, but it also gets a clap from regular audiences, and I think that's because a lot of people are sick of seeing @placeholder depicted the way we're always depicted," he says.
