German film agency okays ‘anti-Semitic’ Turkish film
According to the statement, Valley of the Wolves contains “propaganda tendencies” and “repetitive violence.”
http://www.jpost.com/International/Arti ... ?id=205596The movie, the second part of Valley of the Wolves media franchise, recreates IDF commandos’ interception of the Mavi Marmara protest ship to Gaza in May 2010, which resulted in the deaths of nine Turkish men.
Critics of the film say that Valley of the Wolves glorifies Hamas and the Turkish IHH organization that dispatched the ship.
Maya Zehden, spokeswoman for the 12,000-member Berlin Jewish community, told The Jerusalem Post on Thursday that the film is “agitational” and “is not good” for Jewish-Turkish relations in Germany or for Israel- Turkey relations.
The film denies Israel’s right to exist. Critics in Germany and Israel have slammed it for fanning the flames of contemporary anti-Semitism.
At the outset of the film, Polat Alemdar – the main character in Valley of the Wolves – announces, “I didn’t come to Israel, I came to Palestine.”
