Richard Gere can't resist getting political in Israel
The pretentious film star's come to Israel for the premiere of a movie made with an Israeli director, and made pretty predictable comments about two politicians:
US President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are “bad guys” who “don’t really get it in the fullness of things,” American actor Richard Gere said in a Channel 2 interview while in the Jewish state for the Jerusalem premier of his new film “Norman: The Moderate Rise and Tragic Fall of a New York Fixer.”No thanks to leftists like Gere, of course. I wonder what Netanyahu has to do with all this? If he has to vent his misgivings about politicians, wouldn't Trump be more the one than a foreign politician? And I doubt he's done a convincing job for human rights either. If he's only concerned about Islamists, then that says everything. So, I won't be hurrying to see any of his film inventory anytime soon.
“It’s all deals to them,” the 67-year-old Philadelphia native — also known for his human rights activism — said.
“Truth is dead, the obvious is dead, language is dead,” he told Channel 2’s Dana Weiss in an interview that will be aired in full on Saturday. “This is a dark time.”
