Does violence in films and video games lead to violence in society?

Experts who deny this say that only a very small fraction of people who watch violent scenes in films and video games gets violent.

What do you think about it?

Kind regards

Shalom Chaim,

I have heard you criticize Steven Spielberg in the past; I was just wondering why you hate him so much. Not that I'm saying you shouldn't; I just don't know very much about the man. To me he's just the guy who directed E.T. and Jurassic Park. Is it simply because he has so much money and influence, but doesn't do anything to help righteous causes; or is it that he actively spreads evil ideas through his films? I saw Saving Private Ryan and honestly I think the film had a pretty good message and did not push any leftist agenda on the audience. I don't see any overt political message in his films. Again I'm sure you have very good reasons for denouncing Spielberg but I just want to know what exactly they are.

Secularbeliever:
Chaim, has anyone considered as a tactic against the destruction of the Jewish communities of Yesha, a demonstration at the home of one of Israel's elite leftists offering to destroy the home for the sake of peace with the Arabs?  It would be especially effective if it were a home on land that was once Arab owned and if they could bring some filthy Arabs, (perhaps a bulldozer also) with them to say that they want the home.  It would be a great way to demonstrate the absurdity of destroying Jewish homes and to remind the left wing Post Zionsists that the Arabs covet their land just as much as they do Judea and Samaria.

IsraeliGovtAreKapos:
Shalom Chaim, what do you think that has to be done with the non-Muslim Gentiles in Israel when we'll be in power? Should we transfer them like we should do with the Muslims?

WestCoastJTF:
Chaim,

I want to ask you a "Devil's Advocate" type of question.

It's well known that Israel has a sizable nuclear arsenal.  So why should it be worried about the Iranian nuclear program?  Wouldn't Iran fear a nuclear response if it attacked Israel?  There are those who say that the last major Arab war (1973) was before Israel got nuclear weapons, and the Arabs haven't dared attack the Jewish state since.  Isn't Israel secure against foreign governments due to its status as a nuclear power?

Just asking a devil's advocate question for the benefit of listeners ;-)
