Makes one wonder who this mentally challenged idiot is who came up with the idea of making this tragic incident in to an opera. Amazing to say the least...

Pro-Mohammadan propaganda should be swiftly shut down.

It is an idiotic idea.
Reminds me of the one excuse given for the murder of the teenage girls in the pizzaria, “he was scared.”
The lefties later portrayed that as a “brave” act.
So by the terrorist supporters own admission, the mad dogs are terrified by girls, and old men in wheelchairs.

Wonder how “heroic” they will make this out to be?
*baaaaaaaaaarf!*

What would happen if Lincoln Center were to be burned down? Would the Liberals learn their lesson? If this play were about Mohammad, the Muslims would certainly burn down the building - with the audience inside.

That is why the Liberals would never offend a Muslim.

About 45% of the American population are mentally challenged idiots.

We are surrounded by them.

Actually, I do think they are afraid of girls.

They seem terrified of the idea that women might be their equal...and in some cases their superiors. Their little twisted minds just can’t take it.

Them’s some weird people!

I remember Mr. Klinghoffer. What a terrible, senseless thing those animal moslems did to him. To make a joke of it, as this “opera” does is beyond an atrocity.

Operas are all about tragic incidents.
Most operas have a body count.
Granted, the subjects of most are purely fictional, legendary, or, even in their time, ancient history.
With some notable exceptions, such as La Traviata, which though thinly veiled, opened just a few years after the real world tragedy on which it is based.
Its not wrong on the face of it to base such a work on recent events. The complaint in this case I suppose is that either the terrorists are seen sympathetically or the victim isnt.

Well, it’s certainly in bad taste if nothing else!

No response from NY’s muslim community? Guess they will attend the opera to show their support for muslim terrorists.

Just for the general FYI, wikipedia has an entry for it.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Death_of_Klinghoffer#Performance_history

Apparently this play has been around for a long time (1991). Seems to be in very bad taste to me.

Your comment made me curious so I looked up the answer. I was very surprised to find that it is someone I went to high school with. I have only a vague notion of his career since then, so my comment is based on how I remember him. Rather than being a mentally challenged idiot he seemed more like a genius. I remember him as being extremely intelligent, talented, and entertaining and also a very friendly and nice person.

I wonder if any tax-dollars went to this “opera”?

Branding the idiot is more about derision than intelligence as far as I’m concerned.
