The Lynching Hollywood Loves

-

Hollywood loves a good, old-fashioned Jew-lynching: Just ask Mark Ruffalo, Billie Eilish and Ava DuVernay. All were sporting “bloody hand of resistance” pins at the Oscars. The pins show a raised, red open palm and are marketed under the ultra-chic “Artists for Cease-Fire” label. But that symbol derives from an actual photo of a particular bloody hand.

Back in 2000, two Jewish IDF reservists mistakenly drove through Ramallah and were detained by Palestinia­n police — and then brutally murdered in their jail cell by a crowd of savage, blood-hungry thugs, one of whom showed his bloodied hand in a nowinfamou­s photo. That is, the pins are a winkwink, nudge-nudge endorsemen­t of violent terror against Jews.

These stars are hard leftoids: Ruffalo is an empty-brained Sanders fanatic, despite being a millionair­e many times over himself, Big studios laundered Ava DuVernay’s race-hucksteris­t conspiracy theory into respectabi­lity. For the mind behind the morally specious documentar­y “13th” to come out in support of lynchings? No notes, as they say in Tinseltown.

Billie Eilish is a kid — but that excuse wouldn’t fly if she’d been amplifying cryptoNazi symbols, and it shouldn’t fly here.

And that goes for every Hollywood nitwit who can’t find Gaza on a map but donned the pin because a friend/spouse/strangerth­ey-follow-Instagram told them to.

We have to ask: What’s next for the moral pioneers of American arts? Maybe a nocturnal window-shattering spree directed against venerable LA Jewish delis Langer’s and Canter’s — a “night of broken glass,” as it were, and all for Palestine? Whatever ugliness our moral superiors on the red carpet devise, we’re sure it will be just as obscene.
