| Gibson asked for forgiveness and for help with his alcohol
problem and the Jewish community accepted the apology. It was just
a slip of the tongue during an alcoholic haze, and after all, Mel Gibson
is an actor and we all know that those Hollywood folks are nuts right?
But wait, there's actually much more to this story than most people
know. A couple of years ago Gibson gave an interview to Reader's
Digest, Gibson's comments may shock you. On the issue of the
holocaust Gibson commented “I mean when the war
was over they said it was 12 million. Then it was six. Now it’s four. I
mean it’s that kind of numbers game." Going on to say that he
didn't agree with his father who believed the holocaust didn't happen,
just maybe not quite as many as was said.
Gibson later went on to say “The Second World
War killed tens of millions of people. Some of them were Jews in
concentration camps.
Many people lost their lives. In the Ukraine, several million starved to
death between 1932 and 1933. During the last century, 20 million people
died in the Soviet Union.” However in regards to the accusations
that Gibson is Anti-Semitic the actor said
“Nobody wants to have their name, you know,
besmirched on the front of newspapers and people say wicked things about
them and their family and call them all sorts of names, accuse them of
being anti-Semitic and everything else. I mean that’s not part of my
design. I don’t enjoy experiencing that. That’s just coming from some
place that I have no control over.”
After this latest blunder Gibson came out to
apologize the the Jewish community stating
“There is no excuse, nor should there be any
tolerance, for anyone who thinks or expresses
any kind of anti-Semitic remark.” He
continued, in part: “I want to apologize
specifically to everyone in the Jewish community
for the vitriolic and harmful words that I said
to a law enforcement officer the night I was
arrested on a D.U.I. charge. I am a public
person, and when I say something, either
articulated and thought out, or blurted out in a
moment of insanity, my words carry weight in the
public arena.” Mr. Gibson went on to say
he wished “to take it one step further, and meet
with Jewish leaders” for a “one-on-one
discussion.”
This is finally an apology,” said Abraham H.
Foxman, the national director of the
Anti-Defamation League. “We’re glad that he
owned up that what he said was not only
offensive, but bigoted. When he’s finished with
alcohol rehabilitation, we will be ready and
willing to meet with him and to help him get rid
of his other addiction, which is prejudice.”
Rabbi Marvin Hier, founder of the Simon
Wiesenthal Center here, also offered to meet
with Mr. Gibson, but cautioned in a statement
that, like substance abuse and alcoholism,
anti-Semitism “cannot be cured in one day and
certainly not through a press release.”
So what exactly did Mel Gibson say that got
him in so much trouble this time? The
sheriff’s report, carried on
TMZ.com,
a Web site owned by Time Warner, said Mr. Gibson
had demanded to know if the officer, James Mee,
was a Jew. During an obscenity-laced tirade,
according to the report, Mr. Gibson also said
“the Jews are responsible for all the wars in
the world.” Obviously this is a shocking
statement and in the highly electrified
atmosphere of political correctness that
envelopes us today makes this short of a capitol
offense.

Many in the media are now touting
the end of Gibson's career and
portraying the actor as a drunken
lunatic so I would like to try and
balance this story out and play devil's
advocate. It always amazes me how
our society today has come to a point
where we have freedom of speech and
freedom of religion, as long as other
people agree with you. Even more
amazing is that it almost always seems
that the people that cry out for action
against someone that says something
un-PC are the first to say they advocate
freedom of speech. What would Mr.
Foxman or Rabbi Hier have to say if
instead of Gibson stating what he did,
it was Cindy Sheehan stating that
President Bush is responsible for all of
the wars in the world? Yes there is a
double standard, however I know that
some of you reading this right now are
thinking "But Bush IS responsible!"
Actually I will give you that the Bush
administration is responsible for the
Iraq war so there is a little truth to
that, but that's only one war, what
about the others? |
| Let's be real here and call a spade
a spade, we'll call the rest of this
story the "No PC Zone" if we can
shamelessly rip of Bill O'Reily.
Any war in the middle east right now is
indeed a result of the very existence of
Israel either directly or indirectly.
Obviously we'll start with the war
between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon,
Jews are directly responsible. The
growing threat for Iran and Syria also
directly related to the existence of
Israel making the Jews directly
responsible. What fueled Sadam
Husein was the existence of Israel and
was a direct threat to Israel and a
major part of the United States going to
war with Sadam Husein was to help
protect Israel from this growing threat
so we'll give this one a indirectly
responsible tag. |
 |
Now finally the BIGGEST war that directly
affects the United States is the total "War On
Terror", so why exactly are these terrorists
running around and blowing themselves up and
crashing jets into the world trade center and
pentagon? Is it because they don't like
George Bush's hair cut? Maybe they're just
irritable because it's so hot in the middle east
and sand gets in their underwear. Wait, I
remember now, they're upset that the Palestinian
land was taken over by the Jews to create
Israel, making the Jews directly responsible for
the war on terror. Yes there are other
factors in play here besides the simple
existence of Israel but I don't believe that the
other factors would be enough to fuel the wave
of terrorists on their own with the Jewish
factor.
Now I don't recall ever seeing anything
claiming that Mel Gibson wanted to kill Jews,
deport Jews, beat up Jews, or even say anything
about Jews that wasn't based on a truth.
Yet the Jewish community chastised him, the
media portrayed him as a lunatic, and the PC
police would like to hang him in a public
square.
In fact, I'm not sure that you could actually even say that anything
Mel Gibson has said to this point is Anti-Semitic. Sure it has to
do with Jews, and obviously the Jews don't exactly like the things he
says, but what has he said that is derogative to the Jewish people?
It's like saying that you're Anti-Native American if you say the Native
Americans are responsible for most of the gambling in this country.
They are in fact the owners of most of the casinos outside of Las Vegas,
many people don't like gambling, but nobody says the casino protesters
are Anti-Native American. The Native American people were treated
just as poorly for a longer period of time than the Jews in Nazi
Germany, mass extermination and mass exodus was the norm for hundreds of
years for the Native Americans. It's the same as what I said
earlier, there is a clear double standard in this country.
On this note I would like to throw one more piece of information that
many people are unaware of. The Jewish people themselves have done
the exact same thing to other races that the Nazi's did to them.
Surprised? Most people are, in fact you are thinking to yourself
right now that this is garbage and there is no truth to this at all
aren't you? It's actually and easy thing to prove and verify,
simply pick up your bible and go to the old testament, now flip to the
book of Joshua. Ever hear the story of the battle of Jericho?
There's even a little song I learned in Sunday school as a kid about
this battle that now knowing what I know seems kind of sick in a sense.
You see the Hebrew people believed that God had promised them the
land of Israel, however Israel did not yet exist. In the "promised
land" there lived a people called the Canaanites, Joshua being the
military leader after the death of Moses needed to conquer the land of
Canaan for "living space" for the Jewish people, after all, the Jews had
the divine right to expand their border for more "living space" for his
people.
 |
So how does Joshua deal with these pesky
Canaanites that are breathing up all of the Jew's promised air
and fill up all of their promised space? Well you could
call it a few different things but the word I like to use is
"GENOCIDE". Keep reading in your bible to where the Jews
are about to attack Jericho, as we all know the Hebrew army
marches around the city with the ark of the covenant blowing
trumpets until the walls fell. The order Joshua gives to
his army is to leave no breathing thing, men, women, and
children are all put to the sword to make room for his race.
Hitler often said that the German people had the right to
conquer it's neighbors to make room for German "living space".
Now as you see in your bible what I just told you is fact, |
| it's a written record recorded by the Jewish
people themselves, but knowing the kind of world we live in
today I know that even though what I just said is fact, it will
be considered Anti-Semitic. Just like Mel Gibson's
comments are getting him labeled an Anti-Semite.
I personally don't feel that I am an Anti-Semite, I don't
wish any harm on the Jewish people, I actually support them in
the war against Hezbollah, I believe that Israel has the right
to exist, and I respect the Jewish people's tenacity in their
struggle to survive. One of the greatest scientists to
ever live was Albert Einstein who was a Jew, and both
Christianity and Islam are derived out of the Jewish faith.
Now once this article is read by Jewish people I'm sure that I
will receive some hate mail, and I'm sure that there will be
many calls for me to apologize just like Mel Gibson did.
But I personally don't believe in apologizing for saying things
that are true, even if someone else doesn't like what I said.
If someone finds a fault in the accuracy of this article I will
apologize in an instant, but only if anything I said was false.
