Oliver Stone
Anti-anti-Semitism group The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has accepted Leftist movie director Oliver Stone’s second apology for saying that Jews control the American media and foreign policy.
Israeli newspaper Haaretz reports ADL director Abe Foxman found Stone’s first apology, issued towards the end of Monday when news of his comments, to be “insufficient” and would not accept it.
Stone, whose father is Jewish, issued a second apology via press release Wednesday.
“I do agree that it was wrong of me to say that Israel or the pro-Israel lobby is to blame for America’s flawed foreign policy,” Stone wrote, adding that his comment was “not true and I apologize that my inappropriately glib remark has played into that negative stereotype.”
Stone added that he was “categorically opposed to anti-Semitism – and all other racist ideologies.”
Foxman released a press statement accepting Stone’s apology, writing the Leftist director “now understands the issues and where he was wrong, and this puts an end to the matter.”

I think he should apologize again by doing a benefit show and having Mel Gibson join him on stage to do a dialog entitled: Sacrificing your testicles to racists.
@THE NIM TRUTH: Geh cocken ufen yom. Yimach shmo vezichro, I mean, Yimach shma vezichra. Shem reshaim yirkav.
Stone is going to have to walk through the Diamond District at noon with a “kick me” sign on his back for a week before the Jews finally start to really forgive him.
Abe Foxman:
“Vonce Vas Nawt Goot Enoughk! Apologize again, you lousy mamzer!”
What a good little puppet.
What’s next?
Proceeds from the movie to be a donation to the USHMM?
Like the $50 million they already received this year from taxpayers?

To the editor, How dare the Anti-defamation league downgrade the swastika as a Jewish Hate symbol. Almost a year ago on Yom Kippur evening my synagogue, Congregation Beth El had numerous swastikas painted on the building. No one has still been caught. Numerous additional swastikas have appeared in Edison New Jersey, with no one captured. I saw a skin head personally and no one followed up on my report. It is stupid to say as the ADL claims that" the swastika has become a more generalized symbol of hate.The extensive article in the Jewish Week conveniently leaves out the Edison story and the swastikas on my synagogue in particular. I HAVE BEEN ASKING FOR AN INVESTIGATION BY THE ADL FOR ALMOST A YEAR. THIS ARTICLE EXPLAINS WHY THE ADL HAS DONE LITTLE OR NOTHING. THE ADL WIEGHS IN ON THE MOSQUE NEAR GROUND ZERO, YET REMAINS RELATIVELY QUIET ABOUT SWASTIKAS IN MY TOWN AND IN PARTICULAR ON MY SYNAGOGUE BUILDING. THE ADL ALSO FORGIVES OLIVER STONE
