Protect > Negate?

I make an RA with James, son of Al banded to Thad. My opponent blocks with a low ability character and plays Shimei's Malicious Curse.

Is Thad forced out of battle, or does the protect cover it?

He is forced out, however, his protect ability is still active (since it can't be interrupted).

New question.

My opponent has Image of Jealousy on my Herod's Temple (the same scenario applies). Can I use Herod's Temple's ability since IoJ was negated?

It actually was not negated because IoJ was played on a previous phase (unless it was played earlier in the battle).

Even though IoJ's wording says all enhancements, not just enhancements played this battle?

It can still be negated though, only the placement is CBN after a turn.  Not the ability.

U mean Shamies Malicious Curse says all enhancements?
This is the way Lackey gave it to me. All hail the power of Lackey!

It's still under debate whether "negate all" has an implied "in battle." I believe it does, but there are some who would have it extend to negating placed Enhancements too.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!
