Following my expose of Oregon’s AMZ Productions antisemitism, their owner Jesse Locke engaged me on Twitter, refusing to explain why he ‘Liked’ the antisemitic comment or even to condemn antisemitism. Instead, he doubled down and accused Israellycool of “harboring hatred,” being “racially charged against palestinians” and “promoting physically threatening children.”
The basis of these charges? Some comments left on the site, which I had not checked, and which I certainly do not condone.* Nevertheless, this was the best he could do to try and tarnish this site, instead of expressing remorse for endorsing a vile, antisemitic comment.
In the meantime, he quietly removed the offending ‘Like’ from the antisemitic comment, but kept the comment on the site, while removing some pro-Israel ones.
So he would not seem to be a fan of Jews, which might help explain why he is helping produce a Pallywood movie.
Meanwhile, a reader has sent me a link to Locke’s Facebook page, which contains the following photo:

My friend was having a graduation party.. The theme of the party was unicorns and book burning. I chose to represent the book burning aspect..It doesn’t make any sense.
Besides Locke’s nonchalance towards playing dress-up as a Nazi to represent “book burning,” notice the comment by his FB friend with a Jewish-sounding name – a comment Locke seems to ignore.
Now this might ordinarily be seen merely as poor taste, but his endorsement of an antisemitic comment on a FB page might put it into a different, more disturbing perspective.
* Alas, I do not have the bandwidth to go through every comment so I repeat the disclaimer that we do not endorse all comments on this site and ask that you all use common sense when commenting and refrain from hateful comments or calls to violence.
