"Since the film will be shown worldwide, I humbly appeal to you to insert a postscript:
During the Roman occupation more than one-quarter million Jews were crucified...." [end of outtake]

So, that "Christian" wants a postscript to blame the Romans for Christ's death and to pretend that the movie was about Jewish suffering at the hands of Romans?

I think Gibson should do as the Shiny People ask, but add about seven more zeros to the 250,000 number they request, just to show how "pulled straight outta the ADL's ass" the number really is.

Correction. Judeo-"Christian".

I think Adam Ant was most recently observed appearing before a British magistrate on a charge of being drunk in public with his pants down.
If the ADL can force a postscript to Passion, can we force a postscript to Schindler's List? "During World War II, nowhere near 6 million Jews died. Some did, but most deaths were the result of disease or starvation in the concentration camps. There were no gassings or ovens. The Jewish internments were needed because Jews were the foreign agents behind the communist threat to Germany. Meanwhile, Allied forces bombed German cities unnecessarily, causing many unnecessary German deaths."

THeir music was very percussion-heavy and had a primitive and tribal feel. I LOVED it back then, but I haven't heard it in years. THey truly had their own unique (no modifier, W) sound.
He went on to do a solo album, featuring the hit "Goody Two Shoes", which was mediocre compared to the group's music. I expect one of the band members besides "Adam" was responsible for the group's interesting sound, though I've never looked into it. Maybe he lost his inspiration when he took off the makeup.
"Adam" has recently had some trouble with the law...I seem to remember a weapons charge at a British pub.
I didn't mean to cut in line, Wintermute. You probably have more to say about this. I was surprised to see his pic as your avatar. It brought back some pleasant memories of my misspent youth.

I recently read a diary of a woman who lived under Nazi occupation in a suburb of Leningrad and who hated the Bolsheviks with passion. No word of the Nazi atrocities, except executing a few looters. Some rumors of labor camps and communist and Jews being shot. The prevailing theme is the hunger and how most of the population just froze to death in the winter, weakened by hunger and diseases. People are fragile. Why invent an industrial elimination program, using such silly, dangerous and ineffective tools as gas chambers? Just neglecting the population, confiscating some of the cattle and crops for the war effort does the trick.
Other interesting thing there is how the Nazis discouraged the anti-Bolshevik-minded people from organizing based on Russian nationalist platform. It does appear from the diary that the Nazis didn't have any plans for restoration of Russian state as an independent entity. The author's husband, for example, was given a task of researching the topic of Russian bath, and hopefully proving that it came to Russia from Germany. The Nazis didn't protect any Russian cultural treasures, despite the requests: the books in Tolstoy's library were used as fuel.

That's an atrocity.
