Anothr pile of anti-Iranian hogwash
Aaaaah, yes, another month - yet ANOTHER film presenting Jews as victims. This time it's during the Iranian Revolution (you know, that coup which was intended to put a western stooge in place but wound up spectacularly backfiring in Washington's face) where all the western-sponsored parasites who were sucking Iran dry had to hightail it out of the country. In this newest load of fiction masquerading as history, it's 1979 and some poor (actually rich) jews have to leave Tehran on account of that nasty Khomeni dude seizing power. Which is a bit like communists being persecuted after Mao came into power! The reality is this: In Iran, Armenians and Jews were treated well; it's only the Ba'hai faith whose adherents were persecuted. But I guess the Ba'hai aren't rich producers in Hollywood so they don't get movies depicting them as poor misunderstood victims coming out every month or so! Also, the Jews who left Iran did so because they were given incentives by Israel, and NOT because they were persecuted. In fact, the only ones suffering in Iran are the common people - because of sanctions imposed on them by the US (the world's biggest hypocrite)!
One last thing: one of the producers of this movie is a guy called Avi Lerner, who is an Israeli and fought in The Six-Day War - I doubt his opinion is going to be impartial, so proceed with caution. But then again, any movie that ties to convince you that Salma Hayek would wind up with a guy like Adrien Brody is bound to be unbelievable anyway!
