Please. I dont agree with Mel's opinion about the war but he is far from being the enemy here. He has an opinion, he voiced it because he was asked. I would prefer him to not give Moore the ammunition but if I had to have everyone agree with me, I would be a lonely person.
By making such an inane comment, he's shown me that he "doesn't get it", which puts him squarely in the enemy's camp. There is other entertainment out there, exclusive of Gibson. He's off my list.
If Mel's words are used JUST ONCE to bolster the morale of the enemy over there and one more soldier gets killed because of it, I would hold him responsible. We are at war...we must use some better judgement on the words we use while getting the same message across. Anybody who ever thought tha Gibson was about anything but money needs to come back to Planet Earth (Sure did like "Signs" though)
