Mighty Jihad Propaganda
The mighty Debbie Schlussel goes to the movies and, gee what a shock, discovers that A Mighty Heart, panders to Muslim terrorists, enables jihadists—and is a mighty piece of junk.
And I thought Hollywood was going to be, y' know honest and show what a hateful, anti-Semitic bunch of barbarians our enemies truly are.
Just kidding.
Long ago, before this film even went into production, I predicted that this would be a love song to, ahem, tolerance and multi-culturalism. In short: a film that CAIR will love. And any film that CAIR loves, is bad news for America, for Jews, for Israel, for western civilization.
Libertas reports that Paramount, cowards to the bone, never spoke to Daniel Pearl's father, but they did set up a special "inter-faith screening" for, yup, you guessed it CAIR, and some far left Jewish nobody.
Look, the studios make not a dime in Muslim countries, so they're not thinking fiscally.
This is about not getting blown to smithereens.
The studio people remember 9-11. They know who the killers are. And like all appeasers, they, um, appease.
Let me just say this to my collegues:
See: Neville Chamberlain. Body count: approximately thirty-million.
See: Israel who expelled every single Jew from Gaza (apartheid anyone?) — and received Quassam rockets in return.
See: The Native Americans who traded, yup, land for peace. And Hollywood makes weepy, self-righteous movies about that atrocity all the time.
Appeasement invites even more aggression. That's pretty much an iron-clad rule of interpersonal and global relations.
Think about the last Hollywood contract you negotiated.
You're smiling because you know I'm dead right.
The rent-a-cop at the studio gates? He's really putting the fear of Allah into our local jihadists—who despise Hollywood because they know that Hollywood is run by Jews and Zionists and nothing the studios say or do will change that loony-tunes jihad fact. It's taught in every madrassa across the Arab/Muslim world, preached in every Mosque from Gaza to Los Angeles; just as they believe that it was really the Mossad who engineered 9-11, and that 4,000 Jews were given notice not to show up for work in the twin towers on that day. They believe all this with perfect certainty, and that's how they live their grubby, violent little lives.
Hollywood should, must, start fighting back, just as Hollywood courageously fought the Nazis and the Japanese during World War Two—by making excellent, pro-American movies. If Hollywood fails to fight, America will lose her war against the jihadists, for Hollywood movies are vital to America's message of freedom and democracy.
Now to poor Debbie Schlussel who had to sit through this mighty dreck:
In other words, don't judge the Muslims. Don't judge the people who barbaricly killed Pearl because he was a Jew. Don't even think that's why they killed him. Understand the murderers. Understand that it's not right for us to keep murderous terrorists in detention with three gourmet halal meals a day and every religious article they'd ever want. Understand that the Wall Street Journal should never help the CIA with intelligence to counter terrorists.

May Daniel Pearl's memory be a blessing.

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.
We need more Bette Davises and less Angelina Jolies.

Jeremiah:
Carole Lombard, Marlene Dietrich, Mary Astor, Jean Arthur, Donna Reed, those women, and scores of others went all out to support the war effort. In fact. Lombard died in a plane crash as she criss-crossed the country in a massive war bonds drive.

Wow, I never knew.
Lillian Hellman, who wrote Watch on the Rhine (when for a moment it was ok for Hollywood commies to bare their pro-Soviet sympathies) during the war flew across the Pacific, then across Siberia, to Moscow as a state guest of the USSR. She lived out her days as an Upper East Side/Martha's Vineyard socialite. The only thing worse than limousine liberals are limousine communists.

what's funny is Angelina Jolie is now also getting bashed by lefties for playing a black woman (blackface), so much for multi-culturalism and understanding.

Absolutely in agreement with you, Robert; and muchos kudos to you for speaking the hard truth to your colleagues. As a conservative professor emeritus, I have a special appreciation for your professional courage.
Btw, on a lighter note, if you'd like to read about a Hollywood hero who helped bring down the Soviet Union, read my latest post on Dancing In Tongues. It is guaranteed to lift your spirits.
