Hmmmmmmmmm.

Please do.

I'm back...kinda, sorta...This is a relatively low volume ping list. If you want on or off please notify me by FReepmail.

We all may die for Israel.

Look at the situation: Iran is rattling their nuclear sabre; Iraq is on the verge of a civil war; Afghan and Pakistani tribes are helping to hide bin Laden; al-Qaeda is stepping up attacks on Saudi Arabia; Arafat dies and Hamas assumes control of the Palestinian Authority; and Israel's Prime Minister is lying in a coma.

The area has always been a mess, but this powder keg looks like Armageddon ready to explode.

[Ann Archy]

Dare ya!

[69ConvertibleFirebird]

OK

(waiting...)

(still waiting...)

[hsalaw]

So my scriptwriter Tony Kushner and myself took on the project as seriously and politically unbiased, and as uncompromisingly as possible.

I haven't seen it, but heard that the terrorists were portrayed sympathetically, and the Mossad agents who hunted them down were portrayed as terrorists. So, yeah, "politically unbiased" is one way of saying it.

[Alouette]

Bill Clinton said so too.

[Radix]

He was watching "Wide world of sports" and not the Olympics?" Tripe!

[demkicker]

Pssst, Steven, your talk is cheap, especially after seeing your fictional & biased movie, Munich.

You've never learned to walk the walk "with your own jewish people/heritage", so quit with your phony pretenses.

It's hard enough to understand your motives for pandering to terrorists, but please quit with the playing dumb routine. You've been caught red handed (how's that for a play on words?).

[Timmy]

Kind of reminds you of Bubba's comment that he would die in a trench for Israel. Anyone have that?

[Mr. Mojo]

Spielberg: Munich was a national trauma for Israel. So in principle I think she [Golda Meir] did the right thing.

Spiegel: Only in principle?

Spielberg: A campaign of vengeance, even though it may contribute towards deterrence and preventing terror, can also have unintended consequences. It can change people, burden them, brutalize them, lead to their ethical decline. ......Violence usually engenders violence.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Typical leftist tripe. Far from leading to ethical decline, responding appropriately to terrorism (as Israel did following the Munich massacre) is an ethical imperative.

[BlueNgold]

So make him ambassador to Iran and let him prove his worth...

[GladesGuru]

"I Would Die For Israel" (so says Steven Spielberg)"

Promises, promises, promises.

Still, let us not forget that if the Libroids like Spielberg (and all too many of America's Jew) have their way, when the Mullahs impose Sharia Law here (the goal according to CAIR), they will be giving all dhimmis a chance to die.

[Tzimisce]

I don't believe him. He's too much of a moral relativist to suffer for any real causes...

[zarf]

Why would any Jew want to die for a bland secular Israel envisioned by Jewish anti-Jews like Steve and Thomas Friedman? He might as well say he'd be willing to die for Holland.

A proud Jewish state that embraced it's biblical history would be worth it but not the "Holland on the Mediterranean" as it exists now?

The United States is an ideal worth dying for, but would Steve say that?

[Truthsearcher]

And apparantly he wants all Israelis to did for Israel as well.

In the wise words of General Patton, the objective is not to die for your country, but to make the other guy die for his. If Spielberg would only understand that.

[sergeantdave]

Seeing as how this a thread about Jewish matters, I have a question which has nothing to do whatsoever with Speilberg.

I bought a box of kosher salt for my rye rolls. These are the big, square salt crystals that you sprinkle on before baking the rolls. BTW, the rolls turned out quite good.

So here's the question: What makes this salt "kosher?" And how is kosher salt different from other salt?

[SLO Rebel]

Montezuma died for the Aztecs with a sword up his butt.

[airborne]

I am having trouble believing him.

[TheBrotherhood]

>"I Would Die For Israel"

What a phony leftist!

I'm sure he's afraid to die, but he wants American kids to die for him and his leftist zealous ilk. Usual leftist crap.
