...Lesbian, Transgender, and Supporters Alliance (BGLTSA) party in Adams House April 30, 2005, he was accosted by two white men who had been looking for a parking space. According to Garcia, the defendants began yelling homophobic and anti-Semitic slurs at him, calling him a “faggot Jew.” According to court reports, Garcia told police that night that he then started yelling at the defendants as he approached their car, calling them “assholes.” But when Garcia was two to six feet away, Kelleher allegedly exited his vehicle and struck...

...fabulous political theater, of course: Allen naked in the public square and squirming, by turns awkward, craven and hilarious in his four-day hegira from white-bread Presbyterianism to the admission that his mother was a Sephardic Jew, from the famed Lumbroso family. By week's end, Allen-the least likely Semite in Christendom-was sitting there stunned as cnn's Wolf Blitzer rattled off the list of brilliant Lumbroso ancestors: doctors, historians, the chief rabbi of Tunis! The Senator argued that his mother had been traumatized by the Nazis; her father had been pulled from his home...

...Most of the movies so-called victims, however, ask for it. The film's running gag is that Borat, like all of his supposed countrymen, has a childlike fear of Jews (a joke, of course, since Cohen and most of the film's primary perpetrators are Jewish). In his home town, the annual event is the Running of the Jew; and when he and his team travel across the U.S., they decide to drive (in an ice cream wagon) because his producer "insisted we not fly, in case the Jews repeated their attack of 9/11." While in the South, Borat...

...Borat's fear of Jews has an exuberant, childlike ignorance - it's one more medieval superstition he carries in his baggage (along with a live chicken). And that would absolve him more than the Americans he encounters. It's funny when he enters a gun store and asks the gent behind the counter, "What gun would you get to shoot and Jew?" It's creepy when the manager recommends a certain model, without missing a beat, and as if he'd had to answer that question a dozen times before...
