fingers is an equal opportunities hater - hates them all and calls a spade a spade. If Ben ic coming up more frequently than most then that's just an indicator he is indeed a serious twat.

I don't play favourites and unlike some I am not sycophantic.

Of course Ben is going to defend Prince Harry, they are both upper class ginger tossers full of their own self importance with very little idea about life in the real world.

Birds of a Feather and all that what ho, Pip Pip, Tally Ho old boy.

I haven't asked anyone in a Synagogue but I can tell you that there is a long list of Jewish Hollywood writers, actors and film companies that were not only dressing up as mock Nazis but investing in the films and presenting them to the public.
You could just start with 'The Great Dictator' where legendary Charlie Chaplin wears mock Nazi costumes. From there check out uber-Jewish synagogue member Mel Brooks Films.

I'm all for mocking Nazis. Seems a lot of Hollywood Jews are too. I agree with them and Prince Henry and now Ben.

Why are you opposed to mocking Nazis?
Fear of offending them?

You only claim it is being "nicked" because it applies to you in particular!

What's all this "you probably think" or "Ben probably thinks" crap? What psychic powers do you possess that empower you to extrapolate an opinion on an entirely different issue from what a FM or HM says?

Exactly

[Angus]

If I remember correctly The Producers ran for quite a while on Broadway and in the West End and it was FULL of blokes dressed up as nazis goose-stepping across the stage. I didn't hear of any campaigns to get it closed down, but poor old Prince Harry JUST because he's who he is was condemned to kingdom come for going to a birthday bash for a few hours in a nazi costume. So the ***** What! Get over it.

Good point. We will never really know if Mel Brooks was mocking Nazis or not. Unless we can get proof and signed statements?
Thanks for pointing that out. I never thought of it that way.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

You do realise that Palestine was Palestine long before the Jewish Community re-settled there following the Holocaust? You do realise that Israel's first Prime Minister was a well-known terrorist who had forcibly taken over the country by killing many Palestinians?

The original film drew a number of negative reviews with the tasteless content being the main focus of the criticisms. Look them up if you dont believe me. The fact that it had a Jewish writer and director saved it from more criticism.

On topic, for once I agree with Ben. Harry wearing the Nazi garb was nothing more than a teenage prank.

[Livia]

I've been to fancy dress parties where people have come as Nazi officers. It was meant as a joke and people took it that way. Of course, none of them were royal princes so no one blew it out of all proportion. Incidentally, before we get into the whole "tell it to Isreal" question, I myself come from a long line of Red Sea Pedestrians.

[chuff me dizzy]

Im not a Ben fan ,far from it ,but I too defend Harrys right to dress up for a fancy dress party in anything he chooses to

I don't need to look it up, I saw the original film by Mel Brooks (who is Jewish) and took it for what it was, a satirical pisstake of the nazis. Only humourless a*seholes would take it for anything else. It might have got negative reviews, but the film was a MASSIVE hit, long before it ever got to the stage.

Using your reasoning about the play having a Jewish writer and director, then Ben should be allowed his opinion more than most since he himself is JEWISH.

The state of Israel only came into being in 1948, but the jews have always regarded the land occupied by the Palestinians as "the promised land" that was promised to the descendants of Jacob (the Jews) by God. To Jews, Israel is the promised land and they will NEVER give it up. They view the Palestinians as squatters so I can't see peace breaking out any time soon.
