Anti-American Movie Gets Standing O in Turkey

It appears that Al Gore is not the only one who sold out his country recently. You can add Billy Zane and Gary Busey to the list for their roles in the fictional movie - Valley of the Wolves - Iraq.

In the movie, the most expensive Turkish movie made ever, all the typical hateful middle eastern stereotypes of Americans are written into the script. The fictional script shows Zane as a mindless killer, a typical American commander. But it wouldn't be a great movie to middle eastern audiences if it didn't display the evil of the typical jew. That's where Busey comes in, as the Jewish doctor who is shipping middle eastern body organs all over the world. The ending, ever so fantastic (as in pure Turkish fantasy), shows the triumphant turks stomping all over America as the American commander is killed. Now we know the writer's smokin something.

I'm all in favor of free speech, so if people want to sell their country out, like Al Gore, Billy Zane or Gary Busey, that is their fundamental right. But don't expect applause or even any politeness whatsoever when in America. I hope people remember these guys the next time they get up and talk in public.

Anyone care to contrast America's reaction to this film versus the Muslim's typical reaction vs the Danish cartoons?
