Bans Spread for Wonder Woman Over Israeli Star Gal Gadot

26

Lebanon and Tunisia recently banned Wonder Woman screenings from their countries because the star role is played by none other than Israeli actress Gal Gadot. And now Qatar has joined that list.

Gadot served in the IDF during the Lebanon war in 2006, and has since, come under considerable fire for her very public shows of support for Israel.

Specifically, she tweeted in 2014 a prayer for the safety of Israeli citizens — at a time when the Jewish nation was engaged in conflicts with Gaza.

Gal Gadot, three years ago, posted this message to her social media accounts: “I am sending my love and prayers to my fellow Israeli citizens. Especially to all the boys and girls who are risking their lives protecting my country against the horrific acts conducted by Hamas, who are hiding like cowards behind women and children…We shall overcome!!! Shabbat Shalom!”

Now, her starring role in Wonder Woman has become a thorn in the side for Muslim-dominated countries.

Breitbart has the story:

Doha News reports the presence of the Israeli star in the blockbuster is enough for authorities in Qatar to ban the screening. Wonder Woman was initially scheduled to premiere in Doha last Thursday across local theater chains VOX Cinemas Qatar and Novo Cinemas.

On Facebook, she previously sent her “love and prayers to my fellow Israeli citizens. Especially to all the boys and girls who are risking their lives protecting my country against the horrific acts conducted by Hamas, who are hiding like cowards behind women and children…We shall overcome!!!”

Gadot also expressed support for the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) during the 2014 Gaza conflict. That was enough for the Palestinian Authority not to screen the blockbuster.

“Apparently, at the Berg Palestine Theater in Ramallah they are afraid the audience will enjoy the excellent movie Wonder Woman, and cannot separate politics from an American film,” Maj. Gen. Yoav Mordechai, the head of the IDF’s Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) unit, wrote in Arabic on his Facebook page after that decision was taken.

“Those who are sure of themselves are not afraid of movies, even if they star Wonder Woman!” Mordechai concluded.

Another BDS tactic, similar to Germany in the 1930s.

The pinnacle of our insanity is demonstrated in the example of the muslims who hold the signs of – Death to america, death to non-muslims, islam will dominate et al….these very individuals, if one so much as touches them, one will be thrown in prison. Can it get any more absurd than this? Muslims can openly exhibit their hatred and murderous instinct toward us, and what do we do? – We give even these muslims the full protection of our laws, and the liberty to grow islam inside our nations, by ourselves. You can not make this stuff up.

The western civilization is ill-equipped to deal with the muslim threat. This is because the western DNA is insufficiently malicious to counter the highly malicious muslim DNA –

Imagine a good-natured elephant, being repeatedly attacked and bitten by a wolf. Each time the wolf bites the elephant, the kind-hearted elephant only shoves it away with its trunk. The wolf keeps biting the elephant, over and over and over again, and the elephant being too nice, never tries to kill the wolf, but only keeps pushing it away. What will eventually happen?

– Eventually, the elephant will die, and the wolf will be victorious.

This is the story of the west and muslims. Muslims being the wolf, and the west being the elephant. We are simply too tolerant, too gullible, too naive to deal with with an enemy like the muslims. No matter how many times muslims rape us, bomb us, sabotage us, and terrorize us – We keep protecting them through our own laws and give them complete liberty to grow islam inside our nations. Muslims will rip apart our civilization in around 100 years – Guaranteed.

For us to be able to counter muslims, we need a bit of malice, a bit of evil ourselves. This is why russians are much better equipped to deal with the muslim threat, than the west. Russians are not exactly nice. Unfortunately, they too face a demographic crisis and had to allow muslims to move in, in large numbers, who, according to researchers, will soon change the landscape of russia.

Not ill equipped, they are not willing to do what needs to be done. Merkle is allowing hordes of them into Germany and we can see the future but of course she does not. Muslims have no place in the Western world, they have so many of their own countries let them stay there. I would not let a single Muslim into Europe and America. But who listens to me??

I am agreeing with your argument about attitude of civilized politics. Better late then never, we need to write our political science with new morality, that will not be defending but attacking. We must attack enemy of civilizing, by withdrawing religious freedom, by withdrawing citizenship to religious followers. We are giving them modern education and profession to sustain their lives, it is our stupidity.

Stupidity and Science are unmatched. What you think about my proposal to political science ?

What kind of person you are? Give thought about meaning of religion. There is no such thing as religious freedom. Freedom go to Individual human being, and not to group….like Islamic-christian–so on…….When group acquire freedom, then Individual loss freedom..

“The western civilization is ill-equipped to deal with the muslim threat.”

This is because we only really go at it when we are fighting each other. So determined are we to do each in that we recruit outside allies (Far East, South Asia and Middle East mostly) to assist us with killing each other. Our national rivalries have been largely suppressed. What hasn’t been suppressed are the internal political rivalries and certain parties of these are bringing in Third Worlders to, again, assist them with killing their ememies within Western Civilization.

I am agree with your reasoning. The story of civilization is same here in India also. Indian left wing politician, well it begin with Freedom fighting movement against Brian, Gandhi had recruted Jihadi Muslim to fight against British, Gandhi was dicto enemy of civilization….both Hindu and Western, following Gandhi Hitler did same thing, call for jihadi Muslim to fight against Britishers,

You will want proof of my saying, and it is here….Gandhi had advised Jews people to suicide and full fill Hitelr’s mission and stop world war. but better read, what he has advised to Hindu woman,? His saying has historical records, no one can challenge about truth…..

I did not know that. I did know that Gandhi was a politician that cynically posed as a ascetic holy man to impress gullible Westerners (a true holy man cannot be a politician) and was, therefore, not worthy of the adulation that he recieves to this day in the West. Your quotation from Gandhi proves that he wasn’t just a politician but that he was the worst kind that advises women to put up with rape so that he could recruit as a political ally the serial rapists.

muslims hate women, muslim women hate themselves, nothing unusual about hate and islam, it would be news if there wasn’t hate involved with muslims.

They will watch Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman privately. The ban is for theaters but everyone in the Middle East has already seen any movie they want to see via pirate video. Muslim men are fascinated with IDF women and lust after them. After all, Mohammad had a Jewess sex slave. They long to do to Jewish girls what they are currently doing to Yazidi girls.

Muslims can’t handle a winner, ESPECIALLY if it’s a WOMAN Jew!

Good on you, Gal Gadot.

I actually saw Wonder Woman at a private screening. She is a delightful actress who makes a film about a stupid comic book story pleasant to watch.

The thought of a woman, especially a Jew being portrayed as a courageous champion is repugnant to muslims. It is because they (muslim men) can’t measure up. They are born losers and they know it.

Everyone armed… everyone fighting… everyone free to decide for themselves what they’ll watch, if anything.

No bans, no censorship, because the correct response is to kill censors.

I’ve read people’s comments about her ‘problematic’ comments about Hamas and all I can say to that is: She’s absolutely right.

Funny thing, they did not ban her in her first appearances as Wonder Woman. So, why now? Why? Because, in this one, she is the leading role as a powerful, intelligent, moral and kind woman, who still maintains her femininity. That’s why. Here is a link to a very posistive review by a Muslima saying this very thing. And, btw, she took a lot of flack for it; https://www.facebook.com/fusiontv/videos/782527161908748/

You’re sick in the head. There’s no such thing as a “good” muslum fool. If you don’t believe me try living in any muslum state and enjoy the freedoms and liberties that don’t exist in ANY of them.

One of the best movies of at least the last 10 years. I would rate it a ten out of ten, or five stars out of five. I had seen on the internet that Lebanon banned it. Later I heard they revoked the ban in Lebanon. Maybe they finally decided to ban it again. I have a cousin there and I could find out. If it has been banned, for a ridiculous reason, they don’t know what they are missing. Too bad, it used to be a Christian country. 🙁
