    I'd say it is pretty disgusting, and is certainly reason enough to boycott Billy Zane and Gary Busey for life (fortunately, that won't mean I miss out on any high quality entertainment):

    ISTANBUL, Turkey (AP) -- 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.
    I doubt we're perfect over there, but seriously, that's WAY over the top.

    If it was just a bunch of Muslims making Yet Another America is Evil movie, it would not even be noteworthly. But for American actors to participate just disgusts me.
    Capitalization is the difference between "I had to help my Uncle Jack off a horse." and "I had to help my uncle jack off a horse."

    There is never a good time for lazy writing!

    I have no problems with the movie itself. People will make movies out of anything, especially if it sells well, which it sounds like it does. The media sells whatever it can, and this happens frequently in the US.

    I, however, will not be watching anymore movies starring Billy Zane or G. Busey, mostly for the obvious anti-Jewish flavor of the movie.

    The irony is that boycotting them won't be difficult.

    With the blatant anti-semitism, I highly doubt they will EVER be able to participate in a major tv show or movie. Everyone knows there are a lot of jewish people on the business side of the entertainment industry.

    They're done.

    I hope they made sure they got paid enough to live for the rest of their lives, becaues there's no way these two are ever getting a job in american media.
