Hamas Cracks Down On Movies In Gaza

The Death of Cinema in Gaza

Heavy slabs of concrete seal the doors of al-Nasr Cinema in Gaza City. Not one aperture exists through which you can see the interior of the building, which has been abandoned for decades. Its towering walls loom over the street, stained black from the old fire. In the 1980s, these walls housed one of the largest cinemas in the Middle East, but now new generations in the Gaza Strip grow old having never been inside a cinema.

The Death of Cinema in Gaza

"Heavy slabs of concrete seal the doors of al-Nasr Cinema in Gaza City. Not one aperture exists through which you can see the interior of the building, which has been abandoned for decades.

In the 1980s, these walls housed one of the largest cinemas in the Middle East, but now new generations in the Gaza Strip grow old having never been inside a cinema."

"In the Gazan mindset, the word ‘cinema’ is associated with something bad. It is considered a violation of the community’s traditions and corrosive to its values. It is viewed as a waste of money which only inspires bad behavior in children and teenagers. Thus Gazan citizens do not miss the cinema nor do they sense its absence, especially considering that it is a society that often lacks essential resources for day-to-day living."

"Director Nijah Awadallah, 44, believes that Gazan society will never yearn for the return of the days of the cinema because Gazans have so little experience going to the cinema now that there is nothing to miss..."

What Hamas is doing to the Palestinians is inhumane, heartbreaking & unforgivable. But then, just how sorry can anyone feel for the Palestinian people who elected Hamas to govern them?

What can you expect from Islamists whose culture is rooted in the 7th century!

These barbarians want to take the whole world back to that era and destroy the western civilization as we know it! .... Even the Gaza film-makers decry this Hamas censorship stupidity....everything has to conform to Hamas edicts..... one has to pity those people really!

I have a feeling that SunniMan, as a devout Muslim, would like to live under Sharia Law. I just hope he isn't holding his breath that it will come to the U.S.

Didn't you see that one of his previous Avatars was the Statue of Liberty girl with Hijab?

That was awfully disturbing
