Turkish film depicts made-up US atrocities in Iraq

ISTANBUL, Turkey (Feb. 2) - In the most expensive Turkish movie ever made, American soldiers in Iraq crash a wedding and pump a little boy full of lead in front of his mother.

They kill dozens of innocent people with random machine gun fire, shoot the groom in the head, and drag those left alive to Abu Ghraib prison - where a Jewish doctor cuts out their organs, which he sells to rich people in New York, London and Tel Aviv.

Gee, they forgot to take away the women's right to choose and deny the gay couples among them equal rights or cut taxes or anything. You guys are slippin' up!

"Valley of the Wolves Iraq" - set to open in Turkey on Friday -
is directed by Michael Moore, with a screenplay by John Forbes Kerry and Cindy Sheehan, adapted from the George Galloway novel Bride of the Son of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion Rides Again, Part II
- feeds off the increasingly negative feelings many Turks harbor toward their longtime NATO allies: Americans.

Wonder if our old troll friend Murat is the executive producer?

. . . The movie's American stars are Billy Zane, who plays a self-professed "peacekeeper sent by God," and Gary Busey as the Jewish-American doctor. . . .

Guess who's DVDs I'm never buying again.

#5  Who knows what bullshit they told Busey. He needs the money, and if you claim to be crazy, people don't expect much from you.

He was probably glad they weren't goiong to make him the fluffer for the Turkish remake of "Midnight Express."

#2  Let them have their propaganda.

I'm waiting for a movie where islamic terrorists are realistically presented: sawing off hostages heads, raping infidels, taking slaves, exploding carbombs amoung innocent children etc.

THEN the American SOF/marines/infantry decend on them and kill them wholesale. There's a movie I'd pay money to see. 'Coure Hollyweird would never "offend" any islamonuts so that movie will never be made. But - I can dream.

#1  "There isn't going to be a war over this," said Nefise Karatay, a Turkish model lounging on a sofa after the premiere. "Everyone knows that Americans have a good side. That's not what this is about."

Oh guess again. I think this is our opportunity to wail and gnash our teeth and declare our feelings truly, truly hurt. Deeply offended are we. We demand apologies and beheadings.
