Hollywood's Quislings
That superb Conservative Hollywood blog, Libertas, reports that Colonel Austin Bay attended a fundraiser for Rudy Giuliani here in La-La Land. Not surprisingly, Colonel Bay had some fairly biting observations to make about the Hollywood community.
INTERPOLATION
If the good Colonel only knew the pathetic intellectual footprint (carbon and otherwise) of this town. I cannot count how many meetings I've gone to where President Bush has beeen compared to Herr Hitler.
What's most amazing is that these people speak so openly, so contemptuously of the President, the entire administration, of all Republicans, Conservatives and oh yes, people of faith, unless of course they happen to be Muslim. Listen, Hollywood people have no desire to get their heads chopped off. They know that Jewish physicians and accountants pose little physical threat; and Christian Evangelicals are, well, just nice non-violent people. Nope, these Hollywood folk just loftily assume that everyone in the room shares their ignorant and depraved opinions.
It never occurs to one of these fashionable and arrogant lefties that there could possibly be a dissenting opinion in the room. They are far too overeduacted, and overbred for such nuanced thinking.
A Republican?
Impossible.
Thye have horns, don't they?
Little do they know that the jihadists hate Hollywood people more than anyone on planet earth.
Let us count the ways.
1. Jews control Hollywood. Don't even try and argue. These people are insane.
2. Hollywood movies spread American culture, which is just pure filth. We call it entertainment. Ah, multi-culturalism.
3. Hollywood movies promote female freedom and licentiousness. Hey, I'm not even gonna go there, I wrote Body Double.
4. Hollywood movies are pornography. The jihadists confirm this by watching them over and over and over again.
5. Hollywood is part of the Zionist world conspiracy. Gee, Exodus was made almost 50 years ago. That's a true conspiracy. Way to go, Hollywood Jews!
6. See #1.
Hollywood figures that as long as they go hard left, vigorously oppose the war in Iraq, make anti-war, anti-Marine, anti-movie-movies like Jarhead, and pro-homicide bombing flicks like Syriana, the jihadists will leave them alone.
Wrong.
It's the exact opposite.
Hollywood has shown the barbarians that they are scared, that they are petrified, thus they signal that they are ready to assume the role of a Quisling.
But Hollywood should take a step back, and give this submissive posture some serious thought: Consider the train bombing in Spain, the subway bombing in London. There have been lethal bombings in Kenya, Indonesia, Jordan, India, Pakistan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and a Jewish Community Center in Buenos Aires. These are countries that are not in the forefront of the war on terror. In fact, some of these contries are quite terror-friendly.
The lesson is simple. The more you appease, the more the jihadists demand. The grievances of the jihadists are endless and truly unspeakable. In the end, they want you and your children to live in a 7th century caliphite. If you refuse, you die. No more Judaism, no more Christianity, no more Buddhism, no more secular humanism. There will only be some mad form of Islam. And naturally, no more Democracy.
Ladies, say goodbye to your beloved Ralph Lauren, D&G, Prada, and Gaultier. Memo from Footwear Hell: Jimmy Choo and Manolo Blahniks will be Strictly Forbidden. If that doesn't put the fear of G-d into you Hollywood Ladies, I don't know what will. No, your wardrobe is gonna get kinda basic: It's gonna be that shmatta that looks like an L.L. Bean family tent: the burqua; it is basic black, true, but still do you really want to look like a sack of Idaho potatoes? And listen, if you don't get with the program, your pretty little head will be carefully placed on the chopping block, and it will happen in some vast public arena, with pious crowds cheering while chomping down shwarma, and praising Allah, and whack! No more worries about global warming.
Have I mentioned clitoridectomies?
Oh yeah, no more movies. Folks, you are out of your j-o-b-s.
You think this is some wild fantasy?
It happened in a few weeks time in Afghanistan. And England and Europe are slowly making small consessions to the "moderate" Muslim councils every day of the week. And you know what happens when you make endless small concessions? Well, the big concessions just roll right over you before you know what's happened.
It happened to Europe in the 30's. And by the end of the war there were over 75 million dead. And it all started with small concessions to Hitler, who, by the way, started with 12 thugs in a beer hall.
These people are starting with several million true believers all over the world. Several million of them are right here in America. Right here in Los Angeles. In your corner Mosque.
And let me tell you, the jihadists are even more dangerous that the Nazis.
Did you ever hear of a Nazi homicide bomber?
To fight the jihadists one must assume a vigorous and disciplined world-wide offensive posture.
You want to fight the jihadists overseas, not inside the gates of the Hollywood studios. Believe me, if Hollywood continues its blind path of surrender and appeasement, the next explosions will not be special effects.
For no one is safe.
END INTERPOLATION
Anywhoooo!
Here's Colonel Austin Bay:
Hollywood has failed to show up for the War on Terror. By “Hollywood” I mean America’s information and media industry, the various Disney, Dreamworks and Madison Avenue image makers and story tellers that thrive on America’s creative liberty and creative energy. The Bedouin misogynists of Al Qaeda and the motley tinpot tyrants that terrorize Earth’s saddest corners have an information warfare edge. By in large global media give the terrorists and tyrants a pass. It’s bitterly ironic. Media elites whose careers and lives depend on the defense and expansion of individual liberty hammer America with the harshest criticism, strangely equating American inadequacies with the terrorists’ and tyrants’ depravities. In a hundred years –as they survey The War on Terror– historians will ask why America’s most creative and able communicators at best reluctantly engaged in the global battle against the tribal and oligarchic killers who threatened the great political experiment which gave them the chance to create without fear.

Karen and I wish all our Seraphic Friends a lovely and meaningful Shabbat.

Seraphic Secret is private property, that's right, it's an extension of our home, and as such, Karen and I have instituted two Seraphic Rules and we ask commentors to act respectfully.
1. No profanity.2. No Israel bashing. We debate, we discuss, we are respectful. You know what Israel bashing is. The world is full of it. Seraphic Secret is one of the few places in the world that will not tolerate this form of anti-Semitism. That's it. Break either of these rules and you will be banned.
Dear Robert and Karen,
I know what you mean. So many of the "unwashed", as I like to call them, mouthe this inane blather about Mr. Bush being comparable to the degenerative wallpaper hanger.
Remember that scene from Back to the Future when one of the characters, I forget, I think it was Biff knocking on McFly's head .... "Hello! Anybody home?"
I fear not, unhappily.
Oh well Shabbat cometh so I'll be away.
Shabbat Shalom,
Alan D. Busch

Alan:
It's odd, Clinton authorized the bombing of Serbia where thousands of innocent civilians were killed. The Dems didn't seem to mind. I guess because no Americans were killed.
I didn't much care for the way we went about fighting that war; in fact, I thought it was truly dumb and ineffectual. Nothing was accomplished. But it never occured to me to call President Clinton a Hitler or a war criminal.
Have a lovely Shabbos.

The irony is that the men who founded the Hollywood studios (Mayer, Warner, Fox, etc) were by and large patriotic Republicans, very pro-America. Strange how things change.

Tamara:
All the Hollywood studios were founded by Jewish immigrants who loved America, were deeply grateful for the opportunities this country afforded those who worked hard, and yhes, they were all Republicans who quite rightly despised the Communists for they knew first-hand what a bunch of Jew-killers the communists were, are, and always will be.

So good to see you take out your knives and sharpen them like this.
(I remember how in the Coen Bros.' Barton Fink, which is set in the early 40s (John Turturro looks like Tony Kushner playing a straight Tony Kushner), they mock a domineering studio executive for becoming a hypocritical reserve US Army Colonel. The gag is entirely visual, but you were entirely set up for it by earlier scenes.)

Jeremiah:
I fear my knives may not be sharp enough. And it is quite true, current Hollywood has utter contempt for our men and women in service, save for a very few like Bruce Willis and Gary Sinise, and some other decent and patriotic actors and execs.
Those who say they are "against the war, but support our troops" remind me of men who beat their wives but support the marriage.

Nothing was accomplished.
I am not sure I agree. The war in the former Yugoslavia did end. The abhorent Mr Milosevic lost power, and his attempt to create a greater Serbia failed and Serbia was reduced to a small rump state. It may well be that a little action on the ground may have been much more effective than a lot of bombing, but in truth the war didn't look like ending until the Americans entered it. It is only a shame they didn't do so four years previously.

Michael:
It is true that the war did end. But this ending , like so many in the Balkas seems quite temporary.
