Poor Amal will feel the wrath of the zionists, and George Clooney may never get a good role in Hollywood again. It is sad that at this time and age, there is an ugly organized entity, very vicious, that is able to seep into legal systems, denigrate officials, intimidate them, and harass them into thinking the zionist way….that they will be antisemitic, if they mention, or find, that Israel is guilty of human rights violations and massacre of thousands of civilians. Will this be Goldstone yet again, or will these individuals have the courage to stand up to all things evil? This must be the global domination we have heard so much about, the ability to control what goes on in the UN by US veto, twisting the arms of other nations to make them abstain in their votes, and the corruption of officials so that they keep the war criminals looking more like long suffering victims whenever there are investigations into Israeli war crimes.

Poor Amal will feel the wrath of the zionists, and George Clooney may never get a good role in Hollywood again.

kay, this is good news. the Zionists hasten their demise the more they sh*t on members of the elite. And a forced exodus of Clooney, Bardem, Cruz and others from Hollywood really would be something of a promotion, even with the pay cut.

Goldstone team consisted of four members the sequel has three.
