Would it surprise you to learn that one of those prominent Hollywood communist Jews who sided with Germany until the breaking of that Hitler-Stalin Pact was none other than Leo Penn, the late father of Sean Penn.
Amazing? Yes, but true.
You don't believe history repeats itself?
Now it's Sean Penn's turn to relive and recommit the sins of his father, who never repented of his Communist Party activities – activities that included support for and appeasement of Hitler's Germany at the very time the concentration camps were incinerating his Jewish brothers and sisters in Europe.
Penn spoke at a town hall meeting in Oakland last

This is news to me.
Sean Penn is Jewish? Please tell me his mother isn't. If his mother isn't Jewish, he's not Jewish. Don't we have ENOUGH problems?
Sean Penn is JEWISH???? OMG!! That makes it almost worse for siding with the exact people that want to exterminate him AND OTHER JEWS!!
Farah's comments about Hollywood supporting Hitler until the 1941 Nazi invasion of the USSR is demonstrably false. Has he ever seen 'The Mortal Storm'? 'The Great Dictator', various Warner Brothers animated shorts, Three Stooges shorts...all made before the invasion.
His father was Jewish. His mother Catholic.
Why is that every time I see Mr. Penn, I hear his Spicoli voice saying 'Dude, those guys are fags'!
His father was Jewish. A Communist Party USA type............
Heard Savage all over this last night. His clips of Penn-is Mouth in SF speech was disgusting to the MAX!>..........
Hollywood doing something to make money and what they do with their money are two different things.
His father was blacklisted for his support of Stalin.
Sean is a heathen.
oh, don't get me wrong, I loathe reading Farah, but he does get a few things right from time to time. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
But yes, I love the old Disney war cartoons. Wish we had a man like Disney today.
Oy Vey Maria!
Most in Hollywood were like Reagan, strong New Dealers, liberal Democrats, but there was a communist element infiltrating the industry and working to take over the trade unions, which Reagan and others became alert to after the war and fought.
The nut doesn't fall far from the tree.........
So that's why Moe dressed up as Hitler in that one Stooge short. < /S >
and sean is?????????????
WHEW...that's a relief.
ROFLMAO! In 48 years, how could I NEVER have heard that???
Don't you just love a second generation millionaire communist?
The Three Stooges made a couple movies knocking Hitler. All the Commies wanted us out of the war in Europe until Hitler invaded the USSR and broke their Pact. Then they wanted us in to help Stalin. All during the war, there was never mention of helping Communism survive. It was always "Mother Russia".
Sean Penn's father Leo also directed the 'The Enemy Within' episode of the original Star Trek. The one with two Kirks. /nerd
In America the Nazi movement was so large that they held rallies at Madision Square Garden and people would wear full Nazi uniforms and it would be a sellout crowd.
And the Nazi's were Socialists, just as the left here in America is today.
hey but you know what- at least he poked fun from time to time, which is more than I can say for these people we have today.
My point being, let's see one movie maker somewhere have a crazy arab as an enemy. I just want to see one. They can be as anti Bush as they want, just make the stupid movie.
The Bund! Unimaginable today.
I don't know all the specifics, and I'm sure a lot more actors back then were pro-American. But from what I know now, Hollywood always had more Socialists/Communists than the general population.
As he should have been.
Ha- that's one of my favorite Star Treks. I liked Harlan Ellison's City on the edge of Forever, as my personal fave though. I hope Harlan was a patriot? ha
Artists have always been drawn to idealistic utopian visions. It used to be Christianity but around the time of the French Revolution it switched over to Earthly utopias.
As I said in #12, Sean is a heathen:
heathen adj : not acknowledging the God of Christianity and Judaism and Islam [syn: heathenish, pagan] n : a person who does not acknowledge your God [syn: pagan, gentile, infidel]
Maybe not The Bund, but you can bet there are similar pro-Muslim organizations today in this country who are bent on destroying America every bit as much as The Bund were.
I didn't see the Commies crying when Hitler and Stalin carved up Poland.
Ever hear of CAIR? or are you being coy?
I actually didn't think of the Madrassas and agree with both of you.

The examples Borges gives were not made to satisfy the public mood. It is true that the Left in the USA supported (or, more specifically, excused) Hitler until the invasion. Hollywood, although riddled with CPUSA members, was not institutionally extreme liberal the way it is today.
The CPUSA got their marching orders from Moscow. When Stalin signed the Non-Agression Pact with Hitler, by default, the CPUSA supported it as well.
Nazi: National Socialist Workers Party....
USSR: Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
Ahh yes Spicolli, the only roll that truely shows the real Sean Penn. Art is life All other rolls he actually had to act instead of be himself.
Moe Howard was always proud of the fact that they took on Hitler before Chaplin did. Keeping in mind how little respect the Three Stooges got as film comedians as compared with Chaplin.
Bet sonny boy Sean is real proud of that!!! What a perfect numbskull!
His father was Jewish. His mother Catholic.
So he suffers from both guilt and shame?
"Farah's comments about Hollywood supporting Hitler until the 1941 Nazi invasion of the USSR is demonstrably false. Has he ever seen 'The Mortal Storm'? 'The Great Dictator', various Warner Brothers animated shorts, Three Stooges shorts...all made before the invasion."
The Great Dictator was begun long before the pact between Germany and the Soviet Union:
The Great Dictator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Dictator
"Chaplin prepared the story throughout 1938 and 1939, and began filming in September 1939, one week after the beginning of World War II."
Similarly the Mortal Storm was based on a novel that was written before the pact.
Also, interestingly, the movie never mentions Germany, let along Hitler. (Though Hitler was incensed enough to ban all MGM movies in Germany after he saw it.)
Guys yes Sean is Jew
ON BOTH Side
Indeed. Many people forget that the Communist witchhunts were not about uncovering young, idealistic fools, but about finding Soviet agents.
And we've discovered later that there were many more Soviet agents in the US Communist movement than anyone thought.
