NYT ^ | 8/1915 | JOHN ANDERSON

Israeli-Norwegian relations have hardly been a flash point in the troubled history of the Middle East. But a programming decision last week by a film festival in Oslo to reject a film simply for its Israeli-ness may have opened a new chapter in the boycott movement against Israel.

They're treating the Palestinian situation as if it were apartheid S. Africa. I find this anti-Semetic cultural boycott revolting.

This time the Euros are hoping that the Muslims kill the Jews,so they can say that their hands are clean.

There's an extremely flawed international agreement called Oslo where the Israelis gave back land to the PLO and in exchange, 1,000 Israelis were murdered and 5,000 maimed.

It's fair to say that the Left-leaning Norwegians prefer to embrace the marauding Arabs flooding Europe right now but when those same poor, little “refugees” start lopping off Scandinavian heads (coming soon)they'll begin regretting their ways.

Euros are doing this for one reason. They know Obama will do his best FDR and not raise a hand to help.

Israel more or less knew Obama was a Muslim Brotherhood ally way back in 2009 BUT...they gave him the benefit of the doubt which only proved how bad he really was/is.
Obama is not there for Israel OR ANY OTHER ALLY. Heck! Obama is not there for American interests, what do you expect? FDR had more brains that Obama but in the end was sucker-punched by Stalin. Obama has been sucker-punched so many times now that he has no idea how to get up and step out of the ring. He has been hit so hard and so frequently that he no longer knows who he is or why he is and...neither do we...

wrote Ketil Magnussen, founder of the festival’s parent organization, the Oslo Documentary Cinema.....

that unless Mr. Zafrani’s films were about the “illegal occupation,” the blockade of Gaza, or discrimination against Palestinians, they would not be shown.

“I’m sorry,” he wrote. “Please let me know if you have documentary films that are dealing directly with the occupation.”
