Why does Spielberg hate and vilify the Nazis for the cold blooded murder of 6 million Jews in WWII but he does not hate and vilify the Palestinian terrorists of the brutal cold blooded murder of the athletes of the Israeli 1972 Olympic Team in Munich?

This movie hasn't been made yet. Debbie is famous for making tenuous connections like this. If this movie...when it is made...is sympathetic to the Palestinian terrorists I'll eat my hat. Spielberg has been to Israel numerous times.

Fair enough...

This is a no brainer. I would gladly pay to watch a movie about terrorists being killed. Most people I talk to have a similar perspective. To portray it as anything less than justice is to ask for the movie to tank.

If Speilberg wants to lose money, he'll portray the palestinians as sympathetic characters. But, I don't think Mr. Speilberg sets out to lose money very often, (we won't mention AI).

Tenuous connections, indeed.

From her previous article on this film: Spielberg halted production "because he didn’t want to anger and incite terrorists." Meaning incite them to attack the Olympics that were ongoing at the time.

Cowardly? Yeah, maybe. "Halted production to avoid upsetting terrorists"? That makes him sound like a co-conspirator. It's a pretty vicious smear.

This article is easily as bad as the worst liberal tripe out there. There are plenty of things that Debbie could criticize Spielberg for, if she has an axe to grind (and clearly she does) - but this is a big, big stretch.
