Just came home from lunch, and turned on CNN as I came in the door.

I caught the last part of a segment reporting on Mel Gibson's "Holocaust statement."

Apparently, the jews are in an uproar because the letter was quoted as saying:

"Millions of people died in the World War II, some of them were Jews (sic)."

This is not "adequete" enough according to the jews. I couldn't find any news stories online, but it'll be interesting to read that whole letter.

ha, well, serves him right for making anything at all to appease the Jews, that they would hound and harass him. he must be completely clueless if he thinks anything will appease jews.

What the hell does "(sic)" mean anyway? It seems used alot to somehow allude to bad grammer and usually used to discredit someone you don't agree with. Was he supposed to say "Jewish people"?
If THATS the case, then maybe the Bible needs a whole bunch of "(sic)"s.

Hey Jews! Go Fuck (sic) yourselves!

Good report, Moose.

Hey A.E., with a line like that, Gibson just might be baiting the kikes. You gotta admit, it sounds like a bait guaranteed to rile them up, but at the same time it's absolutely true. It's possible he's "funning" with them, so they'll over react. I'm just guessing, though.

Great to see you back, Moose. And thanks much for the recent pledge of support for TAA.

True. He's doing it to get free advertising for his movie just like the Passion did. The fucking jews will never learn.

Good one, Mel. Seig Heil to you and you pop!

You're exactly right. It's supposed to be used to indicate a mistake that is made in a quote, but I have noticed that the ADL uses it in almost every single quote it takes from its enemies, mistakes or no mistakes.

Gibson's proposal for Holocaust series stirs old emotions

By Scott Collins, Los Angeles Times | December 9, 2005

HOLLYWOOD -- Mel Gibson pulled off the seemingly impossible last year, turning ''The Passion of the Christ," his low-budget biblical film in a dead language, into one of the year's biggest hits. Now Hollywood's in a frenzy over his newest project, a proposed ABC miniseries partly based on a little-known Holocaust memoir.

Network executives fielded calls from media organizations hoping to interpret the latest move by the actor-director, who has been criticized in the past for statements he has made about the Holocaust and whose elderly father has described some accounts of the mass murder of European Jews during World War II as ''fiction."

Quinn Taylor, ABC's senior vice president of movies and miniseries, said Wednesday that he viewed Gibson's possible involvement as a potential plus in marketing the program, although he added: ''We would never buy a project that didn't have merit solely for the purpose of getting publicity."

Taylor said he was a little surprised at the intense reaction to the miniseries, because ''It's so early in the process."

Indeed, network officials haven't even seen an outline from writer Cynthia Saunders, who's adapting Flory A. Van Beek's 1998 memoir ''Flory: Survival in the Valley of Death," which recounts her experiences as a young Dutch Jew in Holland during World War II.

Taylor said the project, which was bought more than a year ago, wouldn't reach TV screens until spring 2007 at the earliest -- assuming it's made at all. The project is one of 40 to 50 that ABC has in development, Taylor said, and the network airs about 10 such ''event movies" per year.

At this point, Gibson and his spokesman, Alan Nierob, aren't talking about the project. It's unclear how much the star of films including ''Lethal Weapon" and ''What Women Want" and director of ''The Passion of the Christ" will be involved. Con Artists Productions, the TV division of Gibson's Icon Productions, is behind the project, along with other producers.

But some of the organizations that did battle with Gibson over allegedly anti-Semitic portrayals in ''Passion" are eyeing the star's latest move warily.

Rabbi Marvin Hier, dean and founder of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, said he remained concerned about remarks Gibson made during interviews last year. When asked whether the Holocaust happened, Gibson told one interviewer, ''Of course," but added: ''The Second World War killed tens of millions of people. Some of them were Jews in concentration camps."

Hier and some other commentators believe those remarks played down and distorted the history of the Holocaust.

Still, ''We should keep an open mind," Hier said of the new miniseries. ''It may be an education course or eye-opener for his father, who said the Holocaust was mostly exaggerated."

Meanwhile, the controversy has been good for Van Beek's publisher, who's planning to rush 2,500 additional copies into stores next week. James Riordan, publisher of Seven Locks Press, said the book sold just 3,000 copies, delivering perhaps $30,000 in total revenue, since its initial printing in 1998. The press, which publishes 23 books a year, is the publishing arm of Chapman University in Orange, Calif.

The Gibson project might change the book's future prospects dramatically. Riordan said Wednesday that ''We're going to have to reassess (future plans for the book)."

Van Beek said she had been deluged with calls from around the world since news broke of the miniseries.

''I have never met Mr. Gibson, I have never seen his movies, and I don't know his father. I just know recently that he is connected with this film," she said this week in a phone interview. ''A producer called me out of the clear blue sky. He liked my book and wanted to make a movie."

Times staff writers Rachel Abramowitz, Anne-Marie O'Connor, and Robert Welkos contributed to this report.

Seems like an auspicious start to what could possibly be a good thing. Wait and see.

Here is the meaning of sic as it is used in the quote, bookmark the link to look up any word you need to, I'm not sure why it was used for Jews in the other quote, probably jews being jews trying to make it look like a mistake:

http://merriamwebster.com/

Main Entry: 3sic
Pronunciation: 'sik, 'sEk
Function: adverb
Etymology: Latin, so, thus -- more at SO
: intentionally so written -- used after a printed word or passage to indicate that it is intended exactly as printed or to indicate that it exactly reproduces an original <said he seed [sic] it all>

Actually, I put the sic in.

I notice the ADL likes to use it liberally when someone does not capitalize the word "jews." So whenever I see it capitalized, I add a sic.

I love Mel Gibson movies (especially Mad Max 3 ;) ), but I wouldn't put much hope in this. Didn't he tone down "the passion" because he was scared of being assassinated?

My impression of Mel is that he is a patriotic White Aryan, whose eyes have opened but who doesn't quite yet know the full story. I think he's on our side.

Hymie gnashes his teeth in rage "vat is dis some? 6 million is not some. Some is fifty, a hundred, a thousand. Some is not 6 million! 6 million is not some! Vat does this goyim thing he is saying with some? Some here some there, some around the way. 6 million is 6 million. Not some. Need I say more? I'm going to call my friend Murray at Comedy Central. This goy Gibson needs an episode of South Park named in his honor. Some. Some? 6 million you goy schmuck!"

Watch the jews go into rabies mode. Gibson is going to have to clarify his questionable use of the term "some". He has to publically admit to 6 million or their media whine machine will never let us hear the end of it. :D


Yeah, we're all just a bunch of hateful anti-semites

A note of appreciation from the rich
