Spielber plays big to the Hate Israel Crowd! Oscar Time!

Rating: 1/10 (2 February 2006)

Spielberg has won the acceptance of the Hollywood community at the Oscars (and the nominations) because he has made the film they all wanted made.
His argument that the Israelies are somehow "just as bad" as savages who killed their athletes is right where the community wants to be.
Leni Riefenstahl and Michael Moore did their best to spew nonsense on behalf of their causes, but were hampered slightly because people knew they were making documentaries, and so they looked at their work a bit critically. Even if they didn't expect the "documentries" to be composed of falsehoods.
Spielberg's brilliance was in creating a new hybrid "Historical Fiction" category, thus putting his audience to sleep, thinking they were watching actual true events.
This was smart because: He could therefore focus on the murderers as victims, humanizing them. (Not bothering to show the murdered athletes until the movie was over).
He could create a fictional "self-doubt" imposed on the Israeli hit men, where none actually existed.
Look for him to clean up at the Oscars as the self hating Jewish community rallies around this commercial failure of epic proportions.
