The experimental Holocaust drama, The Zone of Interest, took home the Oscar for Best International Feature, and its director, Jonathan Glazer, used the moment to decry Israel’s attack in Gaza.
Expounding upon the film’s themes, Glazer said that his film aimed to reflect the ongoing dehumanization in the present, including Israel and Gaza.
“All our choices were made to reflect and confront us in the present, not to say look what they did then, but rather look what we do now,” he said. Our film shows where dehumanization leads at its worst. It shaped all of our past and present.”
Glazer then said he and his fellow filmmakers “stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation, which has led to conflict for so many innocent people.”
Glazer did, however, take the moment to honor the Israeli victims of the October 7 massacre at the hands of Hamas.

I agree, and I’m glad we can come at this knowing our God
and how He operates. We know how the evil entity operates.
We have some much more going for us than the Left does for
them.
Me neither. Now I’ll make sure not to see it.
Embarrassing mess of incompetence....
Idiot (IQ of 0–25) ...vs... Imbecile (IQ of 26–50)
First of all, one cannot "refute" one's state of being. This is a misuse of the word "refute," which means: To offer a convincing counterargument against; to disprove [a claim] by logical argumentation.
I think that he might have been better served by saying that they want to REPUDIATE or RECANT their Jewishness.
Secondly: I guess that Rachel Dolezal and Elizabeth Warren et al. were right after all, and that it is possible to change one's race or ethnic origin through a simple act of declaration!
That's one of the main problems with Leftism: It's inconsistent!

Thanks for drawing my attention to Epiphanes! It was an unexpected discovery for me!

Nope. That's incorrect. It didn't matter if you had converted to Catholicism, according to the Legal Mischling (Mixed Blood) Test A , If you had two grandparents who were Jewish, you were considered to be a "Mischling First Class." A “Mischling Second Degree” is a person with one Jewish grandparent and three non-Jewish grandparents.
Further, from Esther Littman Gorney who was a Holocaust survivor:
According to the Nuremberg Laws of 1935, Jews were divided in four categories:
1. “Volljude” or full Jew: a person who had either four or three Jewish grandparents
2. “Geltungsjude” or self-declared or believing Jew: a person who had two Jewish grandparents and two non-Jewish grandparents (Aryan) and was raised in the Jewish religion
3. “Mischling First Degree”: a person with two Jewish grandparents and two non-Jewish grandparents, who was either baptized and brought up Christian or practiced no religion
4. “Mischling Second Degree”: A person with one Jewish grandparent and three non-Jewish grandparents, who was baptized and raised Christian or with no religion
According to Littman Gorney:
"The Nuremberg Laws dictated that Jews could only marry within their own category. A Mischling, for example, could not marry either a full Jew or a Christian. I was a Mischling First Degree because I was the offspring of parents who were also labeled Mischling First Degree. That means both parents had Jewish fathers and non-Jewish mothers. Both my mother and father had been baptized as Lutherans."

Democrats are getting frantic at the Jews leaving the plantation. When the Dems blame the Jews for Oct. 7, they chase the Jews out of the party and over to MAGA.
Well put! For these ultra rich Hollywood types, everything is virtue signaling. Underneath their image, they are stinking, selfish hypocrites.
According to Wikipedia, and another source, Maurice was one-eighth Jewish. His great-grandfather was a Jew. I see that Himmler tried to get him kicked out of the SS because of that, but Hitler told him to back off, and leave Maurice, and his brothers alone.
Hitler did give exemptions to some half and quarter Jews that served in the military. In order to keep the exemption, they would have to prove themselves as a soldier. He also gave exemptions to half and quarter Jews that had distinguished themselves in WWI. But these exemptions were only worthwhile during the war. One of the exemptions he gave to a Private reads that: "After the war, I will decide whether to declare _______ of German blood according to his performance as a soldier.
Signed, Adolf Hitler"
Hitler was never going to grant any Jew, half or quarter, permanent German blood status.
It is outrageous that this Hollywood person clearly implies that dehumanization of the hostages and the people of Israel ended on October 7th. In my thread “Antony Blinken Accuses Israel of Trying to ‘Dehumanize’ Palestinians - Followup” ( https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4221087/posts ) the case is made that this dehumanization has not stopped and is still ongoing.
The selling of prisoners of war as slaves to Nigerian warlords is both an act of dehumanization of the hostages but also an insult to the Geneva Convention, the Laws of War, the international community and the families of the hostages and the people and nation of Israel.
The horrible game played by Hamas in January with Noa Argamani and two other hostages was a gross insult to the entire civilized world. Unfortunately both of the other hostages ended up getting killed. This ought to have raised criticism from the entire international community, if there were any with a conscious there.
The admission by Hamas of the ongoing rapes of hostages in a number of videos they have released, makes clear that dehumanization of the hostages is continuing along with contempt for the Geneva Convention and the Laws of War. The refusal by Hamas to deliver medicine to the hostages also demonstrates these points in addition to raising the issue of the inactivity of the Red Cross throughout almost all of the months of captivity.
This Hollywood person is ill-informed and is leaving false impressions that attempt to paper over the ongoing horror.
Well put! The morality of the Hollywood culture is showing itself to be only skin deep.
And then someone bought me Boggle!
Seriously, hatred of the Jews is ramping up so much it’s giving me a 1930’s feel.
Democrat Joe Biden, OTOH, is giving me a 1929 feel.
You know, when FDR was President and didn’t go on TV talking about the Princes of Greed. /s
There it is!
[being hijacked by an occupation]
Forget that Almighty God said that He would restore the nation of Israel to their land once again.
There’s no real data on that, but once ya start killing people, Jews or Hottentots, ya soon stop discriminating twixt friend and foe. It’s just human nature I guess. Besides, it’s much easier if the opposition isn’t armed, and sitreps and body counts go back to the time before Nimrod. Westmoreland didn’t invent them. (I witnessed a really funny “moment of truth” involving Westmoreland, his Wife, and his knockout Gorgeous female personal Secretary. I’m ear to ear grinnin’ as I think of it. Another time.)
No tyrant has ever really wanted to take away a people’s ability to hunt...just to oppose the government!
[The very existence of Jews anywhere including in a Jewish homeland of the State of Israel since 1948, means Jews are alive and that is what Jew haters abhor.]
IIRC, Dave Hunt (RIP) noted that, in 1967, Yasser Arafat and/or other Arabs referred to it as “the 19-years war”
Iran has openly spoken about “liberating” the Al-Aqsa mosque - code for the destruction of Israel - this will be attempted in 1938.
After it fails, as prophesied, it very well could lead to calls for ‘Peace and Security’ - the “two-state solution”
I guess the world is going to find out how the timing goes - it certainly seems to be building towards that moment
I fully-expect Iran to achieve a functioning nuclear weapon - I’m surprised that they haven’t already but there have obviously been Mossad actions that crippled their efforts
I watched three NBA games consecutively. Well, not really watched, more had on in the background. I don’t think I’ve actually watched an NBA game in a while, and that’s with the international diversity on my local Magic.
They were allied against the Maccabees. Had common interest in defeating them. Think of Epiphanes, and the gang as Biden and the Swamp, the Hellenized Jews as RINOS and the DOJ, and Trump, as Judah, and the MIGA. It was do or die for all of them, but G-D was only on one side.
May it be so also in November.
The question is “Who will be our Mattathias? Who gave the stab that gushed round ZION”
YOU HAVE GOOD EYES!
THE LORD ALMIGHTY DOES HIS WORK BY THE HANDS OF MAN (MALE AND FEMALE ALIKE), RIGHTEOUS MEN NO MATTER HOW FEW, EVEN IF JUST ONE.
KEEP THE FAITH.
G-D BLESS YOU.
MAY THE LORD OUR G-D BLESS YOU.
KEEP THE FAITH.
Israel’s rabbis should convene and give him his wish.
