White House Must Stop Sony from Releasing 'Killing bin Laden' Film

Now that the White House and State Department have made clear that they believe movies compel terrorists to terrorize, it's time for them to get ahead of this problem. And one thing the White House can do immediately is to pressure Sony to stop the release of director Kathryn Bigelow's "Zero Dark Thirty," which celebrates the killing of Osama bin Laden.
I'm only saying this because, you know, the White House and the media told me movies inflame and cause terrorism.
Think about it: if the poorly produced and laughably bad trailer for "The Innocence of Muslims" results in chaos, murder, and the burning of foreign outposts all throughout the Middle East, how much rioting and mayhem is a big-budgeted, slickly produced, Oscar-bait blockbuster celebrating the death of the leader of al-Qaeda going to cause?
Moreover, an excuse Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will not be able to use in the case of "Zero Dark Thirty" (as she did with "Innocence of Muslims") is the cowardly and self-righteous claim that the federal government and the Obama White House had nothing to do with "Zero Dark Thirty."
Because the federal government and the Obama White House had everything to do with "Zero Dark Thirty."
As we now know, in an effort to get this glitzy in-kind contribution (tens of millions of dollars) up on the screen in time to affect the election, it was the Obama Administration that gave the filmmakers tons of encouragement and a troubling amount of access to all kinds of classified material.
But this very same Obama Administration has since learned that it wasn't the Obama Doctrine of disengaging with the Middle East and embracing the Muslim Brotherhood that caused all this mayhem and murder last week. It was a movie.

The law of unintended consequences is a big PITA, isn't it?

Can’t disagree with it, they’d better refilm it with OBL slipping out the back, and having Obama lie about the whole killed Bin Laden bit. That will let them off the hook.

You know, because movies create terrorism. By the same logic, we will have to stop wives from irritating their abusive husbands, even if it means loss of freedom of speech. Obama's brave new world.

In the interests of avoiding offending Muslims who disproportionately support 0bama/0sama, this movie must be quashed.
Will its producer go into hiding? Be questioned by government agents?

Obama could try the “you didn’t build that” mantra to take the film makers off the hook.
And since ‘ally is an art,’ who knows what they will come up with next.

Why didn’t the government ever go after the publisher of the American edition of The Satanic Verses by Salman Rushdie?
Oh, we still had a 1st amendment then. In spite of what the Left said about efforts to defund the NEA.

"White House Must Stop Sony from Releasing 'Killing bin Laden' Film"
Right....burn the film, let all the actors go into hiding....and Clint Eastwood can do a gig talking to an empty movie director's chair on the stage at the Oscars.

Fat chance...
The American people aren’t allowed to know the names of the guys who killed Bin Laden (Holder is fighting it in court) but the movie makers have the names.

Feds: Hide SEAL name given to Hollywood
Last July, a top Pentagon official gave two Hollywood filmmakers the name of a Navy SEAL involved in training the squad of commandos who carried out the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. Now, the Obama administration is fighting to keep that same name from the public.
In legal papers filed Friday in U.S. District Court in Washington, the Justice Department argued that the government is under no obligation to make public the SEAL’s name or the names of Central Intelligence Agency personnel involved simply because officials shared their names, partial names or identities with the makers of a forthcoming movie about the raid, “Zero Dark Thirty.”
