The effects of Hollywood pro-war propaganda on our society Dear friends, I'm forwarding this e-mail that I got from my friend Stella to this list, because it shows how Hollywood and the government work hand-in-glove to demonize the people that our leaders have deemed our "enemies"! What's scarey is that there are so many gullible people who fall for all this propaganda, like that one guy who would make such insensitive remarks as: "after we finish off Bin Laden and the Taliban we should go back to the balkans and finally finish off those Serb bastards"! and "F... the Serbs, a good Serb is a dead Serb"! The guy probably never met a Serb in his life, but he just blindly hates whomever his government tells him to hate. I urge everybody to boycott this movie "BEHIND ENEMY LINES"! Peacefully yours, Nancy Hey >From : "sparta" To : Subject : Fw: Comment from a friend: More Serbian Demonization in the U.S. (Behind Enemy Lines - Our big hero, O'Grady) Date : Wed, 12 Dec 2001 17:04:14 -0500 I received this from a friend. It will truly make anyone reading this sick to his or her stomach. This is what Americans have been reduced to - justifying their hated, their bigory, their racism, after seeing this movie. Shame. This is the end reward from a "grateful nation" to the heroic Serbian people, who rescued over 500 American pilots shot down over Yugoslavia in WWII. Destruction. Betrayal, then and now. Goebbels would have been envious. Stella ___________________________________________________________________- Dear Stella, You might already be aware of this movie but in case you aren't I will inform you! Tonight I had the unfortunate experience of watching a big box office hit at the movie theaters. The movie-"BEHIND ENEMY LINES" It was about the war in Bosnia, it made the Serbs look like evil barbaric monsters and the muslims like helpless victims!! It was really horrible the way it made the Serbs look like. I have seen many W.W.2 movies about the German Nazis but this made the Serbs look more evil than the Nazis! It's one of the most popular movies in America right now and everybody is talking about how great a movie it is. It's truly unbelievable, the demonization of the Serbian people still to this day continues non-stop! Could you imagine Stella if you and I were Serbian? We would have to hide our identity because everyone thinks we're ruthless baby killers! This is too much and it upsets me very much. After the movie was over there were some military guys walking out of the theater discussing the film, they were saying "after we finish off Bin Laden and the Taliban we should go back to the balkans and finally finish off those Serb bastards"! Can you believe that? Unreal. I responded to the dumb idiots by saying "it's ok for the U.S. to kill muslims because we are fighting the terrorists of Sept.11 but it's not ok for the Serbs to defend themselves from the very same type of Islamic terrorism, and for 10 years and still going to this day, Sept.11 was only one day, the Serbs have been fighting these terrorists for 10 years and going!" They responded to me by saying "F... the Serbs, a good Serb is a dead Serb" Stella, this is the power of the media propaganda. They have made the American people loathe the Serbs! I'm very upset at their comments and about this movie, sometimes I feel like giving up and stop talking about the Serbs and Yugoslavia, I get too emotional about it and it's probably unhealthy for me! I don't know, I feel like I'm up against the whole world.
