Mandy Patinkin: Maybe ‘White Men In Military And Government’ Are The ‘Bad Guys,’ Not Muslims
Breitbart ^ | 4-18-2017 | Ben Kew

Posted on 04/18/2017 6:08:00 AM PDT by blam

Homeland star Mandy Patinkin says this season of the acclaimed Showtime television drama shows that it is perhaps “the white men in government and the military establishment that are the bad guys,” rather than the Muslim community. In an interview with MSNBC’s Chuck Todd this week, Patinkin said that society had “chosen the Muslim community” as a threat, despite the community making “contributions to the world of a monumental nature.”

Patinkin also said the show, which has been criticized by the left as “Islamophobic” for linking Islam with terrorism, has taken responsibility for this portrayal and has changed its content so they become “part of the cure rather than part of the problem.”

“[Homeland has introduced] a storyline that shows in this case, in this era, in this season, that maybe it is the white men in government and the military establishment that are the bad guys, not the Muslim community,” he continued.

I think that he leaves his shows because people eventually begin to figure out he’s a formulaic BS artist that doesn’t really know sh!t except how to ‘play’ an expert for gullible people. Same technique, same mannerisms and very tiresome one-shot repertoire if you watch him closely.

just another self-loathing Jew.

These people truly do fail to learn the big lessons, don't they? In the 1930s, Jewish movie moguls in Hollywood collaborated extensively with Nazis. One of the few to repeatedly rail against that idiocy was Theodor Geisel, using his political cartoons like an anti-propaganda weapon.

Patinkin is just as blind as that previous generation.

Mandy needs to name a few of those “contributions to the
world of a monumental nature” that Muslims have made. He’s
also not paying attention to all the Jihad crap they’ve
done - and murderous violent crap they’ve pulled. He’s
working on his “Muslim audience” potential, while seeking
to alienate all us “basket of Deplorables”.

Mandy, get your head out of your butt!

Just like “24”, when they stop portraying reality and start denying Islamic Terror - the shows get cancelled. I’ll gladly save money and cancel showtime subscription.

After what i heard his character say in episode 3 this season, I was done.

Taken in the context of what he says here, i dont believe it was just him acting.

He can go to hell and burn.

Why are 300 million people pissed at 15 million people?

What are these wonderful contributions muslims have made?

Name 10....

Whay has the muslim community been at perpetual war with the world for 1,400 years.

Really a terrific group of people. So misunderstood....

Here is what your character said in episode 3 and why I stopped watching:

Here is an exchange between Saul(How Mandy really feels)and the character of his sister, who projects a few things herself

Sister: Afternoon now and then.

Saul: Moshe and I saw things differently.

Sister: He was my husband. You could’ve tried to understand his point of view.

Saul: Did he try to understand mine?

Sister: You could’ve bent a little for my sake.

Saul: There’s no bending with a fanatic. After you met him... You changed. (***who is the fanatic here***)

Sister: Moshe opened my eyes to the false life that mother and father had us living — exchanging Christmas presents with the neighbors, doing everything we could not to offend anyone with our Jewishness. Moshe made me proud to be a Jew.

Saul: He turned you against your family. He brought you to live in a place that’s not yours, where you don’t belong.

( *** you, hoo, hoo are such an ass whole*** )

Sister: Please, Saul, let’s not do this.

Saul: Haven’t you driven enough people from their homes already? Bulldoze their villages, seized their property under laws they had no part in Makin’?

( ***who the hell actuslly was here 1st?***)

Sister: This land was promised to Abraham.

Saul: Ah, yes. Promise. A covenant with God made thousands of years ago. Doesn’t that strike you as a form of insanity?

Sister: You don’t understand, Saul. You never have. I love the life that God has given me.

Saul: How can you love making enemies? How can you love knowing that your very presence here makes peace less possible?

(***My Gawd, could you be a bigger ass whole?***)

Sister: I have a family, a community, a life filled with faith and purpose. Saul...what do you have?

I’ll tell you what Saul and Mandy have: Self Loathing and they to lip lock and warmly embrace tbe very people who would see hou dead.

Thats right see you dead.

Name one place on the planet where Jews are safe?

Why do 300 million people want to kill 15 million?

Does that seem like a fair fight?

Is it because the Evil Jews stole a dinky piece of land thst is about tbe size of Delaware, wbile the Arab world sits on lands thst woukd fill 1/2 the United States.

When did the Palestinian people come into existence?
Where are their archeological sites?
Where are their artifacts?

If you sent everyone of them to 23 and mex what woukd the results be?

You say these poor misunderstood yet misanthropic people become the locus of victim? All of the sudden?

I mean, after 1,400 years of their never ending wars , their attacks on other cultures, their desire to erass from the earth any evidence of conquered people/cultures, their demand that women not only dress in body bags but, are sexually mutilated and as a benefit if marriage are beaten, badly.

Is that why they wear body bags? To cover the bruises, cuts, broken bones, scabs from abuse and the mutilations?

I’m sure your many friends, who are gay, would think “Hey, these muslims really are victims of society, as they are tossed headfirst from the top of a building, falling to their death.

Poor muslims. Gays offend tbem...

You really are one Dhimitude bulb....

Read the dang article. Mandy is simply recounting the plotline of a TV show. This isn’t necessarily his personal opinion. Sheesh.

The entire fricken thread is about the liberal brain disorder that he suffers from.

It seems you can write entire Phd theses on individual liberal brain disorders.

It blatantly obvious that Mandy Whozeefratz has checked into any military demographic numbers recently.

Indeed! But that topic for a thesis would have a hard time in getting an advisor or panel to approve and award the degree. They just aren’t wired that way. It would be heresy to them.

You’d have to disguise the thesis with a misleading title and bury the condemnatory factors deep down in the narrative and meat that they are just too damn lazy to read. :0)

The list of ISIS/Taliban/etc. destruction is too long even to summarize, but everyone should at least glance at that page.

As for destruction by normal western white men . . . um . . . we don’t celebrate gay “marriage” and have to be forcibly compelled to participate on demand. Obviously, we’re worse than Muslims.
