I care about fairness. One-sided propaganda does not sit well with me.

Sophie's Choice serves as a classic example of a self-referential source. Here you use it as some sort of historical document, when in fact it is a Hollywood re-creation. This sort of behavior (history through entertainment) has become endemic in our society and serves as sheer propaganda in many cases. It is most prevalent amongst American women, who like to dismiss facts and have a good cry.

It does not need to be accurate, it just needs to be entertaining.

Have you seen any Hollywood films on terrorist times of Shamir, Begin, Irgun, or Stern? It is most important to flood the market with your own particular sad story that also functions as fund-raising and political support for actions against others elsewhere.

My question to you, should be, do you care about anyone besides Jews?
