there is a bit of difference--Mickey and Bernstein are Jews who
somehow inexplicably identify with National Socialism (remember those
groups of men waiting in camps for the return of
Blicero--inexplicable)
the IB Jews (Americans) are committing war crimes in the movie--they
are behaving like any other individual in history that has committed
such crimes.
That they replicate in detail some of the same acts of cruelty on
German soldiers that the Jews (and others) were subject to during the
war doesn't make me feel any less appalled, even if it is only a
movie--in that sense they are Nazis. No one seems to have a problem
with that--no condemnations from the US Army, in Israel, even in
Germany.
QT if he had any talent would've put these GIs in Vietnam committing
these crimes--change the focus just a tiny bit--i see no
difference--mass murder is mass murder tho all these jackoffs in tis
country, critics and other blowhards would see the difference, those
cheering for their heroes.
