Iran plans to sue ‘Argo’ filmmakers over ‘anti-Iran’ propaganda |
2013-03-13 |
Iran plans to sue filmmakers that contribute to “anti-Iran” propaganda like Oscar-winning film “Argo,” CNN reports. IranÂ’s state-run Press TV reports that in addition its making itÂ’s own film in response to “Argo,” the country is hiring a controversial lawyer to sue Hollywood filmmakers. “I will defend Iran against the films like Argo, which are produced in Hollywood to distort the countryÂ’s image,” French lawyer Isabelle Coutant-Peyre told Press TV, according to CNN. Iranian press has dubbed Coutant-Peyre an “anti-Zionist” lawyer. She is married to Venezuelan terrorist and self-proclaimed “revolutionary” Ilich RamÃrez Sánchez — or “Carlos the Jackal” — who is currently serving a life sentence for killing two French policeman and an alleged informant in 1975 during a jailhouse ceremony in 2001. Coutant-Peyre also said that she plans to take legal actions against other films that have promoted “Iranophobia,” according to UKÂ’s The Guardian. It is not clear exactly who in Hollywood will be sued. Other films that have Iranians up in arms reportedly include “300,” “The Wrestler” and the 1991′s Sally Field film “Not Without My Daughter,” according to Deadline. |

#2 On a related note I hear that those 'Killing Jews is worship' bus signs are up in San Francisco. And the usual suspects and Terrorist Apologists are all in a tizzy about the 'hateful, Islamaphobic' message is for simply quoting the terrorists themselves. And yes - they are too stupid to realize that they are just proving the point behind the bus-signs. |
