In an article on the Jordanian news agency Ammon News, Jordanian television director and critic ‘Amer Gharaibeh criticizes the Saudi TV channel MBC2, which airs from the UAE, for showing films that are sympathetic to Jews and recognize the Holocaust. He states that one of the movies recently shown on this channel (apparently Roman Polasnki’s The Pianist) included Holocaust scenes that are “illogical” and “go against human nature,” and therefore raise doubts regarding the film’s realism. He also argued that Hollywood is controlled by Jewish capital and acts to promote a Jewish agenda and evoke sympathy for Jews throughout the world.
The article prompted many reader comments, the vast majority of them sympathetic to the writer’s point of view.
