Because they aren't really Jews. Liberals of Jewish ancestry.

"Doesn't seem like the same guy, really. Is he bi-polar? Schizo?"
Maybe it is male change of life.. realized he is 50 the BIG FIVE OHHHHHHH whatever... his behavior is cruddy and he's ranking right with the Dixie Chicks BIG ZERO

One could, of course, deal with the actual statements attributed to Mel Gibson. I would take it as a stupid diatribe. There is no merit to the statements as to the Jewish people who cause wars.

Sir Edward Creasy's masterpiece is the Fifteen Decisive Battles.(published 1851). It covers the period from the Marathon to Waterloo. The forces of Islam are documented. Nearly had Western Civilization kneeling on prayer mats. (Battle of Tours 732).Simply hard to find where the Jews fit in.

The most terrible, though arguable, war of all, was World War One. Millions died. Britain and Germany had built enormous battleships. Like overgrown children with toys , each side was itching for a stand off. They wanted to test the toys.

Along comes the Serbian nationalists in 1914. They murder the Arch Duke and Duchess of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It touches off the World War.

Funny Mel old chap, I just cannot find a Jew to blame it on. (my humour rather odd, but you know what I mean.

Mel should have been committed to a mental hospital a long, long time ago. And his wacko father too.

[brytlea]

Thank you.

[brytlea]

Perhaps..,

[misterrob]

The one thing you cannot be or seem to be in Hollywood is anti-semetic conservative

[uglybiker]

He is not amused by Vatican Two

IOW, Mel's echoing his dad.

[sinkspur]

There are not a few rad-trads (radical traditionalists) on the extreme Catholic Right who are tinged, if not suffused, with Antisemitism and who also opppose Bush and the response to Islam's war on the West.

Gibson is fairly representative of the sedevacantist movement in general.

[sinkspur]

I'd like to hear Mel's side of these stories, not just the press characterization of him.

His press release gave you his side of the story.

He said every bit of what has been reported is true.

[GovernmentShrinker]

he is not in Communion with the Catholic Church or his own Bishop and Pope

And yet insists that anyone who is not a faithful Roman Catholic (including his wife, who is an Episcopalian) is going to hell.

[bornacatholic]

That is an ezcellent example of the psychopatholical theology existing among the schismatics and sedevacantists who were formerly Catholics.

Many among those groups are extreme in their Doctrinal ideas about Extra Ecclesia Nulla Salus - Outside the Church there is no Salvation - apparently not even realising what the consequences are for them. Now, it seems that way to us, but actually it just is an admission they believe THEY are the Church.

For instance, Lefevbre, who started the schism known as the SSPX died excommunicated, that is, outside the Church. So, those who suport the sspx are following a former Bishop their own psychopatholical theology of EENS teaches must be in Hell.

Of course they make no sense but sedevacantism and schism leads, ineluctably, to spiritual confusion, mental instability,antisemitism while it also extinguishes Sanctifying Grace in their souls.

But, they get the advantage of hubris, pride, and the idea they have been specifically chosen by God to be the saving remnant. So, they go that going for them

The following is the complete text of Mel Gibson's statement regarding his arrest for investigation of driving under the influence of alcohol:

"After drinking alcohol on Thursday night, I did a number of things that were very wrong and for which I am ashamed. I drove a car when I should not have, and was stopped by the L.A. County sheriffs. The arresting officer was just doing his job and I feel fortunate that I was apprehended before I caused injury to any other person.

"I acted like a person completely out of control when I was arrested, and said things that I do not believe to be true and which are despicable. I am deeply ashamed of everything I said and I apologize to anyone who I have offended.

"Also, I take this opportunity to apologize to the deputies involved for my belligerent behavior. They have always been there for me in my community and indeed probably saved me from myself. I disgraced myself and my family with my behavior and for that I am truly sorry.

"I have battled the disease of alcoholism for all of my adult life and profoundly regret my horrific relapse. I apologize for any behavior unbecoming of me in my inebriated state and have already taken necessary steps to ensure my return to health."

[quesera]

I must say that I am shocked behond words. Never would have expected this from Mel Gibson, both the anti-semetism and the Bush bashing. I will never trust anyone from Hollywood again, it seems they will turn against you on a dime.

Read the apology in full at posting #53 above.

[ichabod1]

I am a Zionist, so I can't give you a lot of sympathy. No, I think it's ok with those people to be anti-israel, as long as you don't make any remarks about "the Jews."

[Cobra64]

Mel is not getting one more movie nickel ever out of my pocket.

I'll be sure to let him know.

[MineralMan]

Aw, geez. The resemblance is just....well...striking. What the heck is Mel thinking?

[Cobra64]

Mel should have been committed to a mental hospital a long, long time ago. And his wacko father too.

Because he's a drunk and hates jews?

I was a drunk and hate terrorists.

[Reagan Man]

Mel Gibson lives on the edge. Sometimes Mel goes over the edge. This time Mel went way over the edge and came down hard. That being said, Mel is neither a liberal nor a conservative. If you like Mel's movies, watch'em. People need to get a life and stop being so engrossed and absorbed in American pop culture. Its juvenile and phoney.
