ca.news.yahoo.com/director-trier-....-124006988.html(blahblahblah...), then--- "I UNDERSTAND HITLER" At the press conference for "Melancholia," the director who won the Palme d'Or in 2000 was asked to expand on comments he made in an interview about his interest in the Nazi aesthetic. "I thought I was a Jew for a long time and was very happy being a Jew," said Von Trier, who, according to biographies was told by his mother on her death bed that the father he had known all his life was not his real father. "Then later on came (Jewish and Danish director) Susanne Bier and then suddenly I wasn't so happy about being a Jew. No, that was a joke, sorry. "But it turned out I was not a Jew but even if I'd been a Jew I would be kind of a second rate Jew because there is kind of a hierarchy in the Jewish population. "But anyway, I really wanted to be a Jew and then I found out I was really a Nazi, you know, because my family was German ... which also gave me some pleasure." "Melancholia" star Kirsten Dunst looked uncomfortable as he made his remarks, which took reporters by surprise. "What can I say? I understand Hitler. I think he did some wrong things, yes absolutely, but I can see him sitting in his bunker in the end. "I think I understand the man. He's not what you would call a good guy, but I understand much about him and I sympathize with him a little bit. But come on, I'm not for the Second World War, and I'm not against Jews. "I am of course very much for Jews. No, not too much because Israel is a pain in the ass. But still, how can I get out of this sentence?" He expressed admiration for Nazi architect Albert Speer before ending another rambling sentence with: "OK, I'm a Nazi." One reporter asked whether he could imagine making a movie that was even bigger in scale than "Melancholia." "Yeah, that's what we Nazis ... we have a tendency to try to do things on a greater scale. Yeah, maybe you could persuade me." He also muttered "the final solution with journalists." As the press conference broke up, Dunst, who was no longer smiling, could be heard saying: "Oh Lars, that was intense." WOW.

An Iranian puppet in South America? Gee, I wonder if the US is going to allow this long term. Probably not. Drones circling Chavez as we speak. The US keeps a short leash on Israel but if necessary Obama will turn them loose on Assad.
