04/30/2004: "A different view of The Matrix"

If you're a fan of The Matrix, you know that it's a movie rife with religious imagery and symbolism, a syncretistic stew that is nonetheless enormously entertaining and thought provoking. Well, I'll bet you didn't know that The Matrix is all part of the Zionist plot to rule the world. Yup, that's the word out of Iran via a "documentary" about Jewish control of Hollywood, excerpts of which are featured on MEMRI:

Majed Shah Huseini, critic: "The Matrix was a meeting point between Hollywood and Jewish Zionist fundamentalism. In using The Matrix, the Wachowski brothers tried to embellish the ugly image of the State of Israel and to introduce the Zionist society as a utopian future society. The plot for The Matrix is derived from the teachings of Gush Emunim, or the fundamental Zionists. The agents' purpose in The Matrix is to arrest the resistance leader, Morpheus, in order to eliminate the Zionist resistance movement by obtaining the entrance code to its network. In the film The Matrix, Zion is regarded as the only sanctuary and as the center of human resistance in the third millennium. The film indirectly suggests to the viewers that all other beliefs and ideologies are null and void. This is the Zionist racism, which wants everything for itself and does not conceive of non-Jews as deserving to live and prosper. This is only a miniscule part of the proof of the political, religious, and biblical aspects of The Matrix.

The transcript is full of the most vicious kind of anti-Semitism, but I have to admit that I laughed out loud when I read this. Huseini was presumably rooting for the machines to win, so that the entire world might look a little bit more like...Iran.
