Why the Holocaust so much front and center?
"The Jewish domination of the media. "There's a major lobby in the United States. They are hard workers. They stay on top of every comment, the most powerful lobby in Washington. Israel has f***** up United States foreign policy for years."
He also thinks Hitler and Stalin are misunderstood, and apparently his new "project" will put them in context. Context? "Hitler is an easy scapegoat throughout history and it's been used cheaply." "I've been able to walk in Stalin's shoes and Hitler's shoes to understand their point of view. We're going to educate our minds and liberalize them and broaden them." That was said at the Television Critics Association recently. Last January when he started this project he said that Stalin, Hitler, Mao Zedong had been distorted by the media. What?
Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director:
Oliver Stone has once again shown his conspiratorial colors with his comments about ‘Jewish domination of the media’ and control over U.S. foreign policy. His words conjure up some of the most stereotypical and conspiratorial notions of undue Jewish power and influence.
The myth of Jewish control is an old stereotype that persists to this day. Stone uses it in a particularly egregious fashion by suggesting that Hitler has gotten an unfair shake because of Jewish influence.
This is the most absurd kind of analysis and shows the extent to which Oliver Stone is willing to propound his anti-Semitic and conspiratorial views.
Will there be the media outrage directed at him that Mel Gibson got? Prediction. He will not. Gibson, for all his faults professes Catholic faith and isn't a radical liberal. Stone rejects religion and embraces communism, so no harm no foul.
Stone has had an oops moment and published an apology.
“In trying to make a broader historical point about the range of atrocities the Germans committed against many people, I made a clumsy association about the Holocaust, for which I am sorry and I regret. Jews obviously do not control media or any other industry. The fact that the Holocaust is still a very important, vivid and current matter today is, in fact, a great credit to the very hard work of a broad coalition of people committed to the remembrance of this atrocity - and it was an atrocity.”
Sorry Stone, don't buy it. You're an anti-Semite, pure and simple.
This guy, besides supporting the communist dictator Chavez, supports holocaust denier Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who wants to launch a nuclear attack on Israel and wipe out all the Jews he can.
Really Stone, you're not a Jew hater?
