Switching is a one way street

Reader comment on item: Jews and Muslims Switch Sides

Submitted by Stas (Ukraine), Jul 27, 2012 at 05:28

No one could dispute that there are vastly greater numbers of Jews who sympathize and empathize with Muslims than vice versa. If the film industry is any indication, I challenge anyone reading this to find even one, just one example of a Muslim film maker putting something out there that identifies or even impartially tells a story about Jews. Just one! On the other hand, you will find that in every Jewish Film Festival or Israeli movies, they are all with very few exceptions, stories about the poor Palestinians, the terrible conscience stricken Israelis, the poor gay Palestinians, every true or exaggerated dirty laundry of any Israeli or Jewish figures towards Muslim victims. Muslims always victims, maligned, discriminated against, etc. etc. It becomes quite nauseating in its repetitive predictability over time. But one thing is for sure, no Muslim is making any similar movies about Jews, anywhere, any place.

I do not follow movies closely and so cannot provide you with such a name but I would not be so certain as you are about this absence.
