I've just seen on Polish TV some idiot from Wiesenthal Cetre complaining and asking something like "do you see today any Jews with such long beards?"

FLASHBACK - 2004

Rabbi Marvin Hier, founder of the Los Angeles-based Simon Wiesenthal Center declared that The Passion had "already unleashed a wave of anti-Semitism in the United States." He told Reuters that his "Jewish human rights organization" had already received dozens of hate calls and letters prompted by the film.

Crucifying Mel Gibson

Since they couldn't complain bout the film this year, they picked a Passion Play in Poland. Look for a repeat of this mantra in 2010 when the famous Oberammergau Passion Play is performed. According to their web site, February 2009: No more hair and beard-cut will be allowed ("Haar- und Barterlass") . They also subscribe to authenticity.

You are exactly right!

Why does anyone pay any attention at all to the hate-mongers at the Simon Wiesenthal Center?
