Steven Spielberg has been criticized by the only surviving Palestinian terrorist behind the massacre at the 1972 Olympics in Munich, Germany, because the director failed to consult him over his new movie dramatization of the tragic events. Mohammed Daoud was a member of terror group Black September in the early 1970s and was responsible for the deaths of 11 Israelis in Munich's Olympic Village. He has been on the run ever since. But Daoud is so angry with Spielberg's supposedly pro-Israel stance in new film Munich, he contacted news agency Reuters to put forward his side of the story. He says, "If someone really wanted to tell the truth about what happened he should talk to the people involved, people who know the truth. Were I contacted, I would tell the truth. (Israel) carried out vengeance against people who had nothing to do with the Munich attack, people who were merely politically active or had ties with the PLO (Palestine Liberation Organization)."
and he also doctors his movies with said sentiment when he can or finances others to do it for him in their movies...The Contender as but one example...as big a piece of anti GOP tripe as ever envisioned and released to hit Bush mid October 2000....
he's an arrogant America hating a-hole
Leni Riefenstahl made art too...that is not excuse
he and his little crew of Geffen, Katzenberg, Hanks, Rod Lurie, and Weinstein etc are a scourge for anyone who loved old America back when folks believed in God, country and family... screw him...I can't stand the bastard am I clear enough ..but I like you well enough ...you are the movie guy here
BTTT
Speilberg is a turd..why conservatives would laud him beats me
Imagine having the guts to use the word “remarkable” when referring to John Kerry. Gigolo, Liar and Tax Evader are a few of the words that come to mind when I think of him, but I guess that's why I was a Banker instead of a big time Hollywood Director / Producer and Writer. Must be my own lack of imagination.
Did it take you seven years to formulate a response? LOL OK I’ll play...which of his films demonstrate the sentiments you articulated. I’ve never heard him make any public statements about America being racist or anti-semitic...at least not contemporary America. He does make a lot of films about WW2 though.
Did you actually say you wish Steven Spielberg dead by terrorism? Disgusting.
Not really, but in your fantasy world, just make it up as you go. Spielberg chose the profession of playing pretend, but wants to be taken seriously on real matters? No dice. The scary thing is that he isn't much different from George Soros when it comes to working behind the scenes to destroy the conservative American way of life.
This is an article about a terrorist whining that Spielberg wasn’t nice enough to him and his cause in a film.
Maybe...if you believe everything you read. But look no further than SS's best political buddy....Nancy Pelosi. Since I consider her to be a terrorist herself, I have no problem judging SS on the company he keeps. His contribution to the world of arts is absolutely not a factor to me.
Too funny
I just noticed the thread on recent posts and replied....never even glanced at date
That happens on occasion if like me a poster typically follows the forum mostly by scrolling latest replies
And i never saw Munich after reading Stevie gave the terrs too much relative just cause
I did see Cowboys and Aliens Borges and thought it funny with little irritating crap
I don’t think it glamorized the Pali cause like others did but Munich committed the cardinal movie sin of being kinda dull.
