Moviegoing Turks meet new enemy, and it is U.S. (and the liberals love it)

"I acted in this movie because I'm a pacifist," he said in a televised interview. "I'm against all kinds of war."

[carolinacrazy]

Maybe these actors are so self absorbed that they actually believe if they personally decry the war on terror, their own lives will be spared. A true example of an ego maniac thinking that they individually matter when it comes to radical Islamists.

[Tulane]

I am so OFFENDED! Quick, everyone, let's go burn some Turkish flags and destroy their embassy!!! To ARMS!!!

[Callahan]

Garey Busey is mentally ill, so he has an exscuse--sort of. Billy Zane is bald and his Hollywood career has flatlined, os I have to assume this is the only work he could get.

[CROSSHIGHWAYMAN]

Useful idiots alert!!

IDIOT

Funny how Hollywood has not made any good war movies with the USA as the good guys. WWII had hundreds of pro American war movies...

[bubman]

Nah, these actors are washed up and need to work. If anything, actors are whores who will parade any sentimentality provided it gets them what they want. The essence of being an actor is to lie. By pretending to be someone they are not! If the powerbrokers in Hollyweird supported the war you can bet your ass these whores would support uncle sam through thick and thin.

Sincerity and honesty is not what you will find among actors. That is why IMO people don't take them seriously (unless they put their money where their mouth is and run for office)

Maybe if we start rioting, killing innocents, firebombing embassies, etc. the non stop string of anti-American bile that the media and hollywood keeps churning out will stop. It certainly seems to have worked for the religion of piss.

Other scenes show ruthless marines killing Iraqis and soldiers mistreating inmates at Abu Ghraib prison. A Jewish-American doctor, played by Gary Busey, is shown as shipping inmates' organs to New York, London and Israel. All these, according to the screenwriter, Bahadir Ozdener, were inspired by real events.

"Real events"? Proof, please. REAL proof, not that imagined by leftists.

Zane said he was not bothered by the movie's anti-American tone, adding that the horrors of war should be exposed.

Right. Right. Would Mr. Zane be so willing to act in a movie that ACCURATELY (because we know Hollyweird's penchant for "artistic liberties"!) depicts the horrors of 9/11? Somehow, I doubt it.

Wasn't Bruce Willis supposed to be doing something constructive and pro-american? Where is he right now...

[txroadhawg]

the only thing foreign countries know of America is what they see in movies or out of the mouths of Gore or clinton, no wonder they all hate us.

"I acted in this movie because I'm a pacifist,"

The Dude: Smokey's fragile man, he has emotional issues.
Walter: You mean beyond pacifism?

[Doogle]

..didn't this guy play a terrorist in the tv show 24?

[bikepacker67]

OK.. let's try this again:

Billy Zane - making money by throwing our soldiers under the bus.

How come this punk isn't brought up on charges for aiding and abetting the enemy, and then executed?

[Restorer]

As far as I know, the only place in the world where inmates' organs are routinely harvested is China. There is some evidence that live inmates matching the genetic profile required are executed on order to get their organs.

[Rutles4Ever]

The liberals have successfully mated out their survival gene.

[CyberAnt]

A person who says they against all kinds of war and then acts like a bully and beats up people - is a very confused person.

What they are is a COWARD - not a pacifist.

[massgopguy]

Billy, put on the gloves. Let's go three rounds.
