WASHINGTON - Heads of the film industry in Hollywood and prominent movie stars have signed a statement blaming Hamas and Hizbullah for terror activities in the Middle East, the war in Lebanon, and for harming innocents.

 

Some 84 senior film industry members signed the statement, published in the Hollywood Reporter newspaper, the Los Angeles Times, and the Variety newspaper.

 

Among the signatories: Sylvester Stallone, James Woods, Bruce Willis, director Ridley Scott, tennis player Serena Williams, Nicole Kidman,

​ ​​​​Michael Douglas, Dennis Hopper, William Hurt, Josh Malina, Kelly Preston, Danny DeVito, Don Johnson, and media tycoon Rupert Murdock.

 

The Israeli Consulate in Los Angeles has been active since the start of fighting with an aim of drafting Hollywood stars to back Israel. During the war, Ehud Danoch, the consul general, initiated a mission aimed at enlisting support for Israel in Hollywood. The team was comprised of Israeli directors and producers in Hollywood.

 

'Stop terror at any price'

 

The statement said that if terror around the world is not stopped, chaos will rule and innocents will continue to die. The statement called for terror to be stopped at any price.

 

Consul General Danoch is continuing with his PR activities, and on Wednesday night he briefed the heads of the William Morris agency on the recent events in Lebanon.

 

Actor Adam Sandler was present at one of the many briefings the consul general gave this week. At the end of the briefing, Sandler announced that he would personally donate USD 100,000 to the children of the north and south, and about 400 Playstation games purchased by the actor are expected to be transferred to the Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem in the coming days.p>

Can't they just shut up and make movies?

OK, this time they agree with me, but that doesn't make them any more a source for foreign policy statements than when they don't agree with me.

Shalom.

Funny to see these Hollywood liberals standing side-by-side with George W. Bush and the Israelis against terrorism.

You'd think at one point a lot of those liberals who still feel a tie to Israel would suddenly stand up and notice what's happening.

Perhaps they've finally noticed that the Left has decided to allow "Never Again" to become "Not Soon Enough!".

The right is their only hope. They may take some time to realize it, but hopefully they will before all is lost.

For the innocents here at home and Israel, it can't come soon enough.

Didn't know that. There's too many damn Baldwins to keep track of. I did hear about Stephen being more right in the head.

I know what you mean, however, for a change we are seeing some well known actors & actresses supporting the good guys in relation to the evil ones.

Check this out concerning James Woods:

Shalom.

I did not see it when doing the title search so posted it. After researching for all 84 names, no success thus far.

Stephen is the Good Brother and no doubt a conservative.

I know him. You are mistaken.
