| Turkish war film set in Iraq demonises US troops |

| Via No Pasaran Hope the Turks like nuclear armed Shiites next door. In the most expensive Turkish film ever made, American soldiers in Iraq gatecrash a wedding and shoot a little boy in front of his mother. They kill dozens of innocent people with random machine gun fire, shoot the groom in the head and drag those left alive to Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison, where a Jewish doctor cuts out their organs, which he sells to rich people in New York, London and Tel Aviv. Valley of the Wolves Iraq, starring Hollywood actor Billy Zane as an American army officer, feeds off the increasingly negative feelings many Turks harbour toward their longtime NATO allies - the Americans. The film, which reportedly cost some £5.6 million, is a work of fiction and does not purport to level allegations against American troops, but it is part of a new genre of popular culture in Turkey that demonises the United States. Maude, fetch me matches and a map to the Turkish embassy. Rest at link. |
