Since the leftist media is currently ignoring the attacks on Jews and their synagogues in Europe by Muslims, why do they care???
Of course not. And it is not only in Europe, but the liberals also support the PLO, Hamas, and other terrorist groups who murder Jews. The media's criticism of Gibson's film is unquestionably motivated by something other than concern for Jews.
That being said, are there genuine anti-Semites who, upon seeing this movie, might be "inflamed" enough to commit violence? Let's say, for example, that a group of young people see this movie and firebomb a synagogue killing a dozen or so worshippers. They're caught and admit that seeing the Jews in the movie cry "May his blood be upon us and our children forever." inflamed them enough to take action.
I realize it's a stretch for some people, but let's assume this is a possibility for arguement's sake. Who bears responsibility? Be very careful with your response.
If you say, "the people who did it are responsible" and deny that Gibson's film was a motivating factor, you would be taking a strict legal viewpoint. My next question would be, is the denial of responsibility the act of a true Christian? In short, WWJD?
I haven't seen the movie nor will I. Nor will I subscribe to the rantings of the liberal media or those misguided, faithless Jews who dare to critize and call names without justification. They continue in their never-ending quest to render meaningless the term, "anti-Semitism". Yet with all that, I wonder about how Christianity has been represented in all these posts....have the supporters of the movie who denounce the critics acted as Jesus would have? "Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do" is a lesson which does not seem to be evident in most of the postings. Agreed?
