Hollywood celebrities who support Israel
« on: May 06, 2007, 12:42:24 AM »
This ad, signed by 84 celebrities, appeared in the Los Angeles Times on August 16th. Say what you want, but this is clear, unqualified, support of Israel, from people who we least expect it from. Sure there are names of giant [censored] like Murdoch and Redstone, but there are also some surprises like Serena Williams and Vivica Fox.



Perhaps these are people we can contact?

I see so many leftists and shvartza anti semites on that list. That is not a pro israel list. Those people wouldn't go near a kahanist org

Serena williams and vivicia fox both are illiterate for sure so the fact that their names are on there is a mistake.

C'mon. What do you have against them? Certainly not their skin color...

Unless you have evidence they support Jackson/Sharpton/Farrakhan, leave 'em alone.


Crap, I spoke too soon. Fox supports Sharpton.

It doesnt hurt to try, you'd be shocked if you knew some of the people who give money to Kahanist organizations if they are asked.

Do you want to give some specifics? Or were you just making a general statement about being surprised when certain people give?

I was thinking of how one of the Bronfmans gave a hundred thousand dollars to the Jews of Maoz HaYam to resist the expulsion from Gaza

I actually think the Birthright program is good. Everyone who goes, regardless of their politics, ends up with an increased love for the land and the people of Israel. The fact that it has inspired even one young person to make aliyah is a kiddush hashem.

I'm surprised no Jackie Mason.  He seems to be pretty solid, and I even read once that he supported Kahane for a brief period of time.  Does anyone have any information on that?

I'm sorry, but from a dove like me, I'm not impressed AT ALL!  This list does not go far enough to lay complete blame on Lebanon and the muslim nazi terrorists. I would be more impressed if they were signing a document that put full blame on Lebanon and the muslim nazi terrorists. Any civilian that died in Lebanon due to being used as shields by Hezbollah deserved what was coming to them.  I wish Israel didnt show any restraint and annexed to the Litani river and removed all of the inhabitants.

If you listen to the last ask jtf program, Chaim does not speak highly of Jackie Mason.

"Give Mel a break. What did you expect him to do, get drunk and say nice things about the Jews?" (Sarah Silverman)

Seriously, you should read between the lines of that ad. Notice that it says "democratic societies" - by which its supporters doubtless mean the Arabs who allegedly don't support Hamas.

You can read anything at all into that broadside, which is clearly designed to appeal to a far wider spectrum of Hollywood/Jewish types than will ever support Kahanism, and who doubtless largely revile it.

Nearly all of the well-known names on that list have participated in one way or another in the campaign to destroy America and Israel. Nicole Kidman, for example, recently made The Interpreter, starring Sean Penn as a Secret Service agent ;D and the UN as mankind's only hope for salvation. >:( (The movie was filmed at the UN, with its full cooperation.)

Likewise, "Sir" Ridley Scott recently made Kingdom of Heaven, a movie about Jerusalem, filmed in Muslim countries, without a single Jewish character. I guess that there weren't any Jews in Israel during the Crusades. But there was a merciful Muslim warlord named Saladin, wonderfully tolerant toward Christianity. He was played by a Syrian actor.

There are some decent signatories on the list, for example Patricia Heaton and Gary Sinese, both of whom have come under Hollyweird fire for their patriotism. (And I do admire Michael Mann, who made The Last of the Mohicans, a beautiful and truthful and moral film.) But all in all, it's no treasure trove of potential JTF supporters and contributors.

True.  But I think Jackie is reasonably well-described as a right-winger.  He did support Rabbi Kahane and did fundraisers for the JDL.  He's not as radical as Chaim by any means, he does not practice his faith, and ultimately he's interested in promoting Jackie Mason rather than any cause.  But he's sued Jews For Jesus, promoted Jerusalem as the Israeli capital, etc.

He may not be "on our side" but I certainly wouldn't lump him in with the typical left-wing.

I don't think Mason is a bad guy. I think he is Conservative to a point. I think the problem is his acting career comes before his belief system. While not evil he is not JTF material.

Jackie Mason is a fraud. He promised to raise a bunch of money for Chaim and then played stupid about it. Plus he defends our beloved Mel Gibson.  ::)

As meaningless as that document and its signatories might be, I am somewhat surprised not to see Adam Sandler on it. He is a Republican and he donated a bunch of money last summer to Israeli war refugee children from the Hezbollah war so that they could get toys.

My only comment for this thread is that DownWithIslam's comments served no purpose and had not point and they do nothing to better this forum or any of it's participants cause.  Trumpledor, thank you for starting this conversation, this has been an interesting discussion.
