The reviews are in...
David Kaspar called it "...the first openly anti-Semitic film I’ve seen in the German cinema. Joseph Goebbels would have been proud..."
Matthias Kuntzel said "...the manuscript had to be submitted to the terrorist militias...It is hardly surprising that a movie filmed under such circumstances would avoid any principled argument against the killing of Israelis..."
John Rosenthal speculated "...perhaps [Director] Hany Abu-Assad does not consider suicide bombers to be terrorists..."
Tobias Ebbrecht said "...the suicide assassins do not appear as perpetrators but as victims in Paradise Now, whereas the Israelis whose senseless murder disappears into sacral white do not appear as victims but as perpetrators..."
Coming soon, to a theater near you, courtesy of Warner Brothers ... Paradise Now.
So, Germany has produced an anti-Semitic movie in which the motives of terrorists are explored with deep sympathy.
My question is, why is Warner distributing this terrorist propaganda? I saw the trailer in the big Lowes multiplex in Georgetown (D.C.) There is enough evil in the world without major American corporatins helping spread terrorist propaganda.

This is the type of book that should be made into a film. It depicts the evils of suicide bombers, and shows the horrors that Israelis and others face. Read it and show it to Warner Bros.
