The Right Side of Hollywood?

"If we do not succeed in stopping terrorism around the world, chaos will rule and innocent people will continue to die. We need to support democratic societies and stop terrorism at all costs". Actors Michael Douglas, Bruce Willis, Nicole Kidman, Dennis Hopper, Sylvester Stallone, Danny De Vito, Don Johnson, James Woods, Kelly Preston, Patricia Heaton e William Hurt; directors Ridley Scott, Sam Raimi, Tony Scott, Michael Mann e Dick Donner: these are some of the names in a list of 84 Hollywood celebrities who signed a full page advertisement in today's Los Angeles Times newspaper. The ad specifically targets terrorist organisations such as Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Palestine, and it's unusually harsh (at least for Hollywood standards).

Round-Up: Democracy Project, Captain's Quarters, Ace of Spades HQ, Blue Crab Boulevard, Gateway Pundit, Say Anything, USS Neverdock, Don Surber, NewsBusters.org.
