Actress: 9/11 our fault

By MAGGIE HABERMAN DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER

Maggie Gyllenhaal

Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal, star of a new flick about the aftermath of 9/11, believes the United States "is responsible in some way" for the devastating terror attacks. Gyllenhaal, 27, made the comments at the Tribeca Film Festival, where her new movie "The Great New Wonderful" - which has a plot centered on the destruction of the World Trade Center - premiered Friday.

"I think what's good about the movie is that it deals with 9/11 in such a subtle, open way that I think it allows it to be more complicated than just, 'Oh, look at these poor New Yorkers and how hard it was for them,'" Gyllenhaal told the NY1 cable channel.

"Because I think America has done reprehensible things and is responsible in some way and so I think the delicacy with which it's dealt allows that to sort of creep in," she added.

Hey, Maggie! One of the reasons they hate Western culture is because they think we're a bunch of sexual deviants. Now... why might they think that??

I'm sorry. I know that's a lot of syllables all flying at you at once...

Someone should ask her if a beautiful woman is responsible, in some way, for being raped.

Pretty decent career move on her part.

Yes, it really worked well for Linda Ronstadt. She's really packing them in at her Vegas shows ;)

Yes, it was America that encourage Holywood to make movies that infurated Islamofascist with brazen sex and nudity. Hollywood needs to look at themselves when the try to 'understand' the September 11th attacks.

Never heard of her and I doubt if we'll be hearing much of her in the future.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who saw something wrong in that statement.

And she's enigmatically obvious, in a brilliantly stupid way.

In a way, I almost feel sorry for her. After all, it must be hard going through life without a brain.

It's because of people like this actress that we were attacked and these people need to be dealt with harshly so that our enemies never feel that they are justified to attack us again.

I wonder if she thinks women in tight clothing bring rape on themselves?

Well she just shot her career (not much of one anyhow) down the tubes. Can't wait for her to be cornered by a family member of a victim of 9-11.

This is the dense idiot who made one movie and nothing afterward...except to make nonsense statements that only label her as a dumb broad with no acting ability and average looks and that's with bad make up and crappy looking hair.

I actually have been following this has-been, promiscuous, moron's "career," which has been essentially non-existent and otherwise moribund. I guess she thinks her anti-American treason will appeal to the democrats and other sociopaths.

I went to her website just to see what she looks like.

She's guly to boot.

At least with some of the idiots in Hollywood, you can turn off the sound and watch them bounce around. With this twit, not even that would be enjoyable.
