Maybe I don't get it. So what if the movie *is* anti-Semitic. If it tells the truth, then who cares. Nobody is perfect and all groups have some shame in their background at some point - AND PEOPLE OF THE JEWISH FAITH ARE NO DIFFERENT.

I get so tired of some folk. Running around here all holier than thou. Heck, I know Ethiopian Jews (yes, Ethiopian ie. Black - nappy hair and all) that can trace their lineage back to the tribe of Dan (one of the 12 tribes of Israel). In fact, some Ethiopian Jews were discovered still practicing the ancient way of life several years ago in Africa. Do they get coverage on tv? Nooooooo b/c they don't look like what the world has been taught to believe is a Jew. Do the Jewish people in this country claim them? Nooooo b/c it would place into question the notion that a Jew looks like what we have been told that they look like.

All of this fear of anti-Semitism crap is really getting on my nerves. So what if it is true?

I mean come on!

Ok, I'm through ranting.

We are --------->HERE<--------------

This movie is not anti-semetic at all. I swear, they can make movies about black folks acting as total bafoons or being portrayed as thieves, gangstas, murders, etc. all the time to the point where other races are scared of us.

And we're told that we're being "sensitive" - its not a big deal, its just TV or movie. Maybe these same folks need to take their own advice.
