Default The Movie Lies; Therefore Spielberg Lies

The murder of Olympic Athletes in the Munich Olympic by Arabs was one of my earliest recollections of international politics as a young boy. This event and many other attrocites that followed formed my beliefs that the Arab culture is decadent and only worthy of disgust and contempt.

Spileberg's ego is out-of-control. He said in a Time magazine interview that he hopes his movie will help bring peace to the middle east. For this fantasy to come true he has to make sure Arab audiences enjoy his film as much as Jews. So what does Spielberg do?....... He changes the story from what really happened to make the film more 'friendly' to Arab audiences and then he interjects his personal view that revenge does not solve anything. For example, one of the Israeli agents that executed the Arab murderers was portrayed in the film as regretting his role in the executions when in reality he is STILL PROUD to this day for bringing justice to the families of the murdered athletes. When interviewed he was shocked by Spielberg's portrayer of his character. There were other liberties taken by Spielberg in this story as well.

My question to Spileberg is why alter the story from the truth? If you want to make a fictional movie then make a fictional movie. To take a true story and alter some key facts to tell a different story is dishonest. In fact to tell a good lie you need to include a good dose of facts so that the lie can be more easily swallowed. Many ignorant people will see this movie and believe that the story is 100% facts when it is not. Spielberg, you are a liar. The story was good enough to make a movie without you taking liberties with the truth....

Stick to ET and Raiders of the Lost Ark
