Michael Moore welcomes assistance from terrorist group


iconLast week the terrorist group Hezbollah announced their intention to help distribute Michael Moore's new film, Fahrenheit 9/11. Wall Street Journal Op-editor, James Taranto, quipped "Far be it from us to say that Michael Moore and Hezbollah are on the same side. But Hezbollah certainly seems to think they are." Well, it appears that Michael Moore seems to think they are as well.

The movie industry publication Screen Daily reported, "In terms of marketing the film, [distributor] Front Row is getting a boost from organizations related to Hezbollah which have rung up from Lebanon to ask if there's anything they can do to support the film."

The story then quotes Front Row Managing Director Gianluca Chacra: "We can't go against these organizations as they could strongly boycott the film in Lebanon and Syria."

Terror-war supporting organization Move America Forward publicized the Chacra quote and reacted strongly against it.

"Michael Moore dismisses Americans who are upset with his film and the impact it has in undermining support for the war against terrorism," said Vice Chair Melanie Morgan. "At the same time, his distribution companies are concerned about offending the sensibilities of terrorists. That certainly gives rise to asking the question: Whose side are you on?"

Michael Moore is always on the side that will line his pockets the most. In this case he and Hezbollah share the same goals and a common enemy in George W. Bush. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, so to speak.

wow.

I knew Michael Moore was scum, but still . . . this is a guy who rails against companies that lay people off to maintain a profit margin, and his very own company gets in beds with civilian-killers for the sake of a few extra bucks.

I'd rather be laid off than killed, any day, myself. He's not even trying to fake it anymore, is he?
