ADL Up in Arms

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), even though they’ve only read an early version of the screenplay, charges that Mel Gibson’s new movie, “The Passion”, about the death of Christ, promotes anti-semiticism. As for me, it’s fairly clear from the Bible and hundreds of other historical documents that it was, in fact, the Jews that did call for the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth. Even though this particular event in history is basically irrefutable, I do understand where this group is coming from. Because no ethnic group in the history of the world has been more unjustly abused than the Jews. I wonder if it has anything to do with their being God’s chosen people?
