lol When the hell did Mel say this?
Where were you when the Passion Of The Christ came out? You cant bash Jews and get away with it scott free even if what you say is true. Dont you remember the political firestorm Gibson took for showing how the Jews killed Jesus? Even 2000 years ago Jews were your radical ACLU leftists. Even then. It runs in their blood.
This is taken from wikipedia:
He also stated on his decision to cut a scene in which Caiaphas says "his blood be on us and on our children" soon after Pontius Pilate washes his hands of Jesus:
“I wanted it in. My brother said I was wimping out if I didn't include it. But, man, if I included that in there, they'd be coming after me at my house. They'd come to kill me.” Mel Gibson referring to Jews
He took heat from the Jews from this comment:
“...Because modern secular Judaism wants to blame the Holocaust on the Catholic Church. And it's a lie. And it's revisionism. And they've been working on that one for a while.”
Additionaly from wikipedia:
The movie grossed US$611,899,420 worldwide ($370,782,930 in the US alone) and became the eighth highest-grossing film in history. It currently is the tenth highest-grossing film and the highest-grossing rated R film of all time.
Despite this, the film went without any significant recognition by the major American film award celebrations, although it was nominated for Best music (score), Best cinematography, and Best make-up at the 77th Academy Awards.
Gibson is an American patriot and I commend him for standing up to the Jews. This monopoly has got to be broken. Heck this is only hollwood its just as bad for the news.
Do you honestly think the Jews are going to nominate something that bashes them and shows them in an unfavorable light? Brokeback mountain made a fraction of the money the passion did and received more awards. What does that tell you?

As for control of hollywood, so what?
Our movies heavily influence policy opinion. It is not in our best interest to have trash movies seen all over the world because it reflects on us. Directors are transmitting values which are contrary to the principles of our constitution; therefore this threat should be addressed and taken very seriously. When the unsuspecting general public receives anti American themes in movies they are going to register it in their subconscience and it will redefine our cultural standards, public opinion, and influence our laws. It is very important that we have pro American patriots control this vital industry of influence.
