Where have I seen that before
Mel Gibson a 'Jew-hater', screenwriter says
A Hollywood screenwriter has accused Mel Gibson of "hating Jews" and says the filmmaker used him to overcome his tarnished reputation as an anti-Semite.
Joe Eszterhas, who is known for his work on Basic Instinct and Showgirls, sent a furious nine-page letter to Gibson, accusing him of never wanting to make The Maccabees, a film about a Jewish revolt.
"I believe you announced the project with great fanfare - 'a Jewish Braveheart'— in an attempt to deflect continuing charges of anti-semitism which have dogged you, charges which have crippled your career," he said in a letter obtained by TheWrap (http://www.thewrap.com/movies/article/mel-gibson-oksana-grigorieva-im-going-have-her-killed-letter-says-36961).
TheWrap previously reported that Warner Bros. had put the film on hold, rejecting Eszterhas' script because it lacked "a sense of triumph."

I liked all Mel Gibsons movies, he funds the by himself and also markets them without the cartel. In other words he does it without the talmud help. His jesus film I did not care for, without deep knowledge into the workings it goes right over the top. All his other movies seem to be on the mark.

It continues like this...
"You continually called Jews 'Hebes' and 'oven-dodgers' and 'Jewboys'. It seemed that most times when we discussed someone, you asked 'He's a Hebe, isn’t he?' You said most 'gatekeepers' of American companies were ’Hebes’ who controlled their bosses'."
He also makes reference to Gibson's break-up with Oksana Gregorieva and alleges he threatened to kill her.
Mel Gibson retaliated with his own letter, claiming that Eszterhas’ script was "a waste of time".
"Joe, not only was the script delivered later than you promised, both Warner Brothers and I were extraordinarily disappointed with the draft.
In 25 years of script development I have never seen a more substandard first draft or a more significant waste of time. The decision not to proceed with you was based on the quality of your script, not on any other factor."
In 2006 the Australian-raised actor was arrested for drink driving and exploded into an anti-Semetic rant at the police officer.
The more I hear the more I like him...

Mels Dad, an aussie WW2 vet (hutton gibson), he knows the whole zionist conspiracy (or most of it), from what I have seen, Alex jones had hutton on a few times, and seem to remember the jew/zionist thing came bursting out a few times, alex did damage control.... as alex does.
point being, Mel is a great guy, and he has a great/wise father

They hate Mel Gibson because he knows the truth about them, and has the talent and the means to express it and communicate it to the masses - he is a huge threat to the Zionists.

Best Mel Gibson film is The Patriot, IMHO. Pitch-perfect, not a wasted scene in it. After that, lots of good contenders - We Were Soldiers Once, and Young is good, Braveheart of course.

so what other actors share Mel's honesty about the Talmud-worshippers ?
did a search -
https://www.google.com/search?q=anti-Semitic+actors
Mel's the only one who came up.
found this though -
"Russell Crowe apologizes for calling circumcision ‘barbaric’ after actor is labeled anti-Semitic"

Whats the connection between Warner Brothers and Mel Gibson? I just watched Blazing Saddles the other night and that was with Mel Brooks, also a warner Brothers film.

I thought "Edge of Darkness" was quite good... some of TPTB get whacked by their own (conscience-equipped) hitman! ;D
Mel Gibson is definitely one of the VERY few actors that I admire to some degree. Other than the Christ movie, he doesn't go overboard with the religion stuff... and he definitely seems to be a man of integrity and down-to-earth values.
The only thing he's done that I ever really objected to was that Lethal Weapon movie (Lethal Weapon 4) where the whole underlying sub-text of the movie was anti-gun, it starts with some whacko with a flamethrower torching up the city, cars, etc. Mel and his partner show up and say something like "Who's this? Spokesman for the NRA?". Anti-gun messages are seen in posters, etc. throughout the film, and a private detective friend of theirs shows Mel and his partner his new pistol, which they immediately take away from him and throw into the ocean (they're on a boat in that scene) saying something to the effect that guns are too dangerous if you're not a cop. REALLY a distasteful movie for those reasons, but I guess you can't bat 100% when you're working in Hollywood on a big action blockbuster.
Other than that, I'd say I'm A-OK with Mel - I'd have no problem meeting him were that a possibility.
