Serving the Enemy on Film

Steven Spielberg portrays a sympathetic view of terrorists in Munich, George Clooney blames America for exploiting the Middle East, and a film glorifying suicide bombers gets the Golden Globe. If all the latest anti-American themes coming out of Hollywood weren’t enough, now information emerges that actors Billy Zane and Gary Busey have co-starred in a new anti-American and anti-Semitic foreign film produced and shot in Turkey..

The film, titled Valley of the Wolves-Iraq has a Turkish intelligence officer hunting down US troops who allegedly murdered innocents in Iraq. It culminates with the evil Americans, played by Zane and Busey, being killed at the end in a dramatic shootout with the Turkish protagonists.

Busey’s role calls for him to use his histrionic talents to portray a Jewish doctor who works at Abu Ghraib and removes body parts from innocent Muslims to sell to recipients in New York. Busey’s career had already moved from being a “B” actor to a “D minus” one, but this latest project should finish his American career.

At least one can only hope so.

Zane who co-starred in the top grossing Titanic has found another sinking ship with this film and obviously couldn’t care less about his career. He has been appearing in more and more low budget films lately and has lost his once good looks along with his hair. Now he’s apparently going for personality defects as well.

Advance ticket sales are allegedly brisk for the Turkish flick. The story is supposedly based on a military attack made in error by US troops on Turkish special forces out of uniform who were mistaken for Iraqi insurgents. The film is the most expensive production ever shot in Turkey, with a $10 million dollar budget. Using Hollywood stars Busey and Zane would no doubt account for a major part of the film’s budget. But one has to ask, why would established American actors, no matter how desperate, make such trash? And are they really desperate or just greedy and irresponsible?

Busey has been arrested lately in domestic assault cases for beating up women, and he recently assaulted actress Robin Quivers on the Howard Stern Show, his latest prestigious appearance in US media. Maybe he does such things to relate to the Muslim world’s treatment of the fairer sex. However, he says he has found Jesus through music (which must help him in his role as the organ-stealing Jewish-American army doctor). Most likely he can’t get a job even though his estimated weekly pay on a film is $250,000. For that kind of money, why not slander American soldiers fighting terrorism and the Jews, right?

Zane has been starring in foreign films so this must be his foray to develop his al Qaeda fan base. His weekly SAG rate probably exceeds the over-the-hill Busey’s.

American actors are hired by overseas production companies to lend name recognition in the US and European markets to sell tickets. Without them this would have been just another Muslim world anti-American film. But with US movie stars in this film, it will be used to promote the idea of the evil US government that really has no support from the American people themselves. You see, the Muslim world just loves us average Americans all to death. As one Turkish model said after the premiere in Turkey, “Everyone knows that Americans have a good side. That’s not what this is about.”

Of course it isn’t. It’s about the rogue American government and those nasty Jews who control it. And thanks to name recognized American actors, viewers overseas can assume it’s all true, no matter how perverse.

For both of these actors to appear in a film that portrays American soldiers in Iraq as mass murderers who engage in atrocities, and to repeat and update the blood libel of Jews as harvesters of body parts is an outrage. An opinion poll taken by Associated Press about how these roles will affect their careers revealed that 71% of respondents felt the film roles will hurt the two actors’ careers. What a surprise.

Maybe next time we see them perform it can be at a dinner theater in North Dakota.
