Sony Pictures had planned a Christmas Day theatrical release of a new comedy called "The Interview" which as part of its plot involved a fictional assassination attempt of that punk from Pyongyang, Kim Jong-Un. He took offense to the movie and so North Korea launched a cyber attack on Sony Pictures threatening another 9/11-style attack on any theater that dares to show the movie.
The US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said
there was "no credible intelligence to indicate an active plot against
movie theatres within the United States”*.But, enough movie theater chains decided not to
show the movie that "In
light of the decision by the majority of our exhibitors not to show the film
The Interview, we have decided not to move forward with the planned 25 December
theatrical release," a Sony Pictures statement said.*
"White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the
cyber-attack was being treated as a serious national security matter, and a
'proportionate response' was being considered." Yeah, right; I ain't holding my breath waiting for that.
So, as if our country, its greatness and way of life haven't sunk far enough, now apparently we're going to show the world that they can get their way thru threats of terrorist attacks right down to dictating what movies we go see.
What's next? The anti-Christian Islamic terrorist decide they want to eliminate Christmas? Are we going to let them do that too?
Regarding "Beloved Leaders"
Kim Jung Un
Kim Jung Un had NO military experience whatsoever before Daddy made him a four-star general.
This snot-nosed twerp had never accomplished anything in his life that would even come close to military leadership.
He hadn't even so much as led a Cub Scout troop, coached a sports team, or commanded a military platoon.
So he is made the "Beloved Leader" Of North Korea.
Terrific!!!
Oh crap!
I'm sorry.
I just remembered that we did the same thing.
We took an arrogant phony community organizer, who had never worn a uniform, and made him Commander-in-Chief.
A guy, who had never had a real job, worked on a budget, or led anything more than an ACORN demonstration, and we made him "Beloved Leader" of the United States.
TWICE !!!
I'm sorry I brought this up . .. . Never mind.
