Richard Gere Speaks 'For Entire World' To Palestinians
 Actor Richard Gere has recorded a TV commercial urging Palestinians to vote in their election Sunday.oh thank goodness. our prayers have been answered. In a transcript obtained by The Associated Press, he said: "Hi, I'm Richard Gere, and I'm speaking for the entire world. We're with you during this election time. It's really important: Get out and vote." I know that when I need to make important decisions in life, I look to bad actors for guidance. Appearing with Gere in the spot are the head of the Islamic court in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and the spokesman for the Greek Orthodox Church in Jerusalem. otherwise known as Moe, Larry and Curley The spot is apparently an attempt to use both glamour and religion er, which one was the "glamour" one? to get Palestinians to the polls. It will air soon. It's unclear what kind of sway Gere may have with Palestinians. actually, it's pretty clear to me: none. One man who appeared with him in the spot said he'd never heard of Gere. tell 'em Gere's a Jooo. let's see how that stirs the pot! The ad will be aired on Palestinian TV and Arabic satellite channels in the next few days. finally, a solution to the problems in the middle east. Posted by: PlanetDan 2005-01-05 |
