As the Academy Award-winning director of Schindler’s List and founder of the USC Shoah Foundation, which records the testimonials of Holocaust survivors, the Jewish Steven Spielberg has been surprisingly silent about the barbaric October 7 Hamas pogrom in Israel.
Silent about the 1,200-1,400 Jews who were raped, mutilated, and murdered. Silent about the thousands of Jews who were injured.
Silent about the hundreds of Jews taken hostage.
Not. One. Word.
Many have asked Spielberg to say something…anything…but have been met with (yes) silence. David Schaecter, a 94-year-old Holocaust survivor and the president of Holocaust Survivors’ Foundation USA, wrote an open letter to Steven Spielberg.

The Jewish Hollywood bigwigs are all in until it counts. I liked the survivor's statement that we don't need another movie in 3 years about the events of October 7th... That's probably what you're going to get from him anyway

Why would I need to hear from Spielberg, who is just a movie guy? I am able to read, see, or hear news and understand it without some "name" doing it for me. That's why we let stenographers report the news events in their Brooks Bros. suits.

I doubt he thinks of himself as a Jew. What does THAT have to do with HIM!?

Like most Hollywood Jews, his hatred of America overwhelms his Jewish background - think Barbra Streisand. No surprises here

Here's the short answer: If his Jewish-ness is a potential money-maker, he'll flaunt it. If it's not, crickets.

He's a lunatic lefty, and just can't deal with the fact that his lefty buddies want Jews dead at the hands of terrorists.

Maybe he doesn’t have anything to add.
I don’t look to movie stars for social guidance.
My dentist hasn’t made a public pronouncement, either. And he’s orthodox.

I used to like Russian dressing on my salad.
Doesn't mean I have to publicly weigh in on the Ukraine war.

He is giving a 500,000 dollar a plate fund raiser for the most corrupt incompetent child molesting pervert ever to walk the Whitehouse grounds. Answer that one and you'll have the answer to the headline.

Spielberg only cares when there’s money to be made. Otherwise, he’s a typical American JINO. He’s a leftist first and always.

Because the disease of liberalism destroys common sense and critical thinking.

Spielberg is only a Jew when he can make money from it.
His true religion is Leftism - - and he is thoroughly committed to it.

Spielberg - the 21st Century Auschwitz Kapo hoping that by collaborating he won't be gassed, too

Seems like comments are so critical, or judgmental. It isn’t necessary to “shoot your mouth off” about everything, just because you are an admired movie maker. Leave him alone.

Spielberg's talent lies in making movies, which doesn't require a great deal of intelligence, just artistic ability. He may be smart enough to realize that every time a hollywood personality opens his/her/its mouth, half of the potential audience is alienated, or in Jane Fonda's case, 95%. However, being a big supporter of Joe Biden at this point in time is just as risky.

I personally don't care what anybody in movies, the theater or TV thinks about any political subject. Their job is to entertain, not preach.
