Follow link to view video. Description: Edward G Robinson (born Emanuel Goldberg) was one of the great Hollywood character actors makes a sales pitch for his fellow Jews in Europe. It is a shame that todays generation of Hollywood Jews and there are plenty of them, would never dream of showing support like this.
Excellent.
Hey thanks I never saw that before.
Edward G. would have put the old muscle on the whiner on the phone? Most of the Hollywood Jews are Jews in name only,and they use their Jewry only when it’s beneficial for them. Otherwise they’re pliable sheep subservient to the Anti Israel crowd. None of them could hold a candle to the people Edward G. was talking about in the video.

Despite a well-known record of activity for patriotic causes during and after WWII, his name was linked by Red Channels with Communist-front organizations. He was called to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee but was cleared of all suspicion and won a clean bill of health. In 1956 he was forced to sell his famous art collection, one of the world’s largest privately owned, as part of his divorce settlement with his wife of 29 years, actress Gladys Lloyd. During this period he was also troubled by the maladjustment of his only son, who got into frequent frictions with the law and attempted suicide several times. Despite the personal setbacks, Robinson continued his busy acting career on television as well as in films. [unsnip]
