HOLLYWOOD BLACKLISTS CRUZ & BARDEM FOR SAYING iSRAEL COMMITTING GENOCIDE Having chosen to remain silent vis-à-vis Israel’s massacre of Palestinians, Hollywood has moved one step further by blacklisting the stars, who said in an open letter that Tel Aviv is committing genocide. The decision against Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz came after the Oscar-toting married couple signed an open letter, denouncing “the genocide perpetrated by the Israeli occupation army.” It is believed to have been made privately by a handful of top industry executives. The letter said Israel is stoking the conflict by “advancing on Palestinian territories instead of withdrawing to the 1967 borders.” It added, “Gaza is living through horror ... while the international community does nothing.” The latest Israeli military aggression against Gaza, which began on July 8, has claimed the lives of more than 1,900 Palestinians, including more than 400 children, and wounded about 1,000 others. The couple has invited harsh criticism from noted figures within the industry. Actor Jon Voight has called for the two to “hang your heads in shame.” He alleged they had stoked “the fire of anti-semitism.” Ryan Kavanaugh, the chief executive of Relativity Media, has also said, “As the grandson of Holocaust survivors, I know that anyone calling what’s going on in Israel ‘genocide’ [instead of] self-defence is either ignorant and shouldn’t be commenting or is truly anti-semitic.” This is while Bardem has said, My signature was solely meant as a plea for peace. Destruction and hatred only generate more hatred and destruction. I am now being labeled by some as anti-Semitic, as is my wife - which is the antithesis of who we are as human beings. We detest anti-Semitism as much as we detest the horrible and painful consequences of war.

Sir, I respected your work as an actor up until I read about you denouncing two of your fellow actors for their stance against the illegal Israeli assault on Gaza. Israel has stoked its own fires of anti-Semitism with its repeated barbaric treatment of the indigenous people of Palestine. If you can look upon the pictures of the children/victims of this conflict and still show support for Israel, then you sir, are spawned from the same substance as your Zionist friends. I will never view a film that has you in it again. Click to Rate ReplyRating29 Mike Aug 10, 2014 2:26 AM Kavanaugh? Thats an Irish name.

She is a star on her merit from working in Spanish language for Spain´s film director Almodóvar, so who cares about Hollywood . So as to Javier Barden, the same is the case, he is a star on his merits in the Spanish language and both will always be starts for 440 mn Latin Americans . Anglo Américas are so so broke, soon they will not afford going to the Cinema, both actors will always be OK , Latin American moviegoers will always keep them the stars the have become with ZERO need for an Oscar, the Goya Awards have more talent and less marketing when real art matters, instead of Hollywood endoctrination passing for art.
