Tel-Chai Nation

The leftist filmmaker has scraped bottom with his telling the Sunday Times about "the Jewish domination of the media" in advance to a documentary he's going to make about nazism and communism. But he blows it with moral equations:

Why such a focus on the Holocaust then? “The Jewish domination of the media,” he says. “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.”

And I don't want to watch his movies anymore. Probably the only really good one he ever made was Midnight Express, showing how grimy and hellish a Turkish prison can be, but few others are worth it. But if this is how Stone, who's half-Jewish himself through his estranged father, is going to behave, then I find it hard to ever want to waste any time on his "products" anymore.

More from Ron Radosh and a special item from Tablet Mag.

Update: here's an extra item from the New Criterion.

Update 2: Stone has apologized, but there's a problem: this may have been planned to begin with. Basically, what he did was a trick where he says something, backs away, yet what he barfs still sticks in a way.

That's why I see very little point to his apology now.

Update 3: in one of the few positive things the ADL has done, they say that Stone's "apology" was insufficient.
