Mel Gibson’s First Oscar

Mad Mel had a scene with my drama teacher Oscar Goncalves in 1990. One of my cousins was his bodyguard. It’s a small world after all.

Mel Gibson’s dad calls Pope Benedict gay!

Pope Benedict Gay

Mel Gibson’s father, Hutton Gibson, has called Pope Benedict XVI a homosexual.

Hutton, 91, called Pope Benedict XVI a homosexual during a radio interview, according to TMZ.

In the interview, the host asked Gibson if the Catholic Church has become “politicised” to the point that it cannot address issues like homosexuality.

Gibson responded that the Church would not address homosexuality because “half of the people there in the Vatican are queer.”

When asked if he thinks that the current Pope is among those homosexuals, Gibson said: “I certainly do,” reports the New York Post.

Gibson also called the Pope “a slippery character” and claimed he is part of a conspiracy to destroy the Catholic Church.

Hutton Gibson has advanced several conspiracy theories related to the Catholic Church, the Holocaust and the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, including the idea that the Church’s opening of the Second Vatican Council in 1962 was an attempt by Jews and Freemasons to take over the Church.

By Way of Deception: The Making and Unmaking of a Mossad Officer

Ostrovsky: By Way of Deception

The first part describes his experiences with the organization. It starts when Victor is first approached by the Mossad during his service in the Israeli Defense Forces and is subjected to numerous tests, including psychological ones. While at first rejecting an offer to be trained as a recruit for the assassin’s squad, Ostrovsky eventually accepts an offer to become a katsa and joins a class of Mossad candidates going through tradecraft training. After successfully completing the training Ostrovsky begins working as a katsa (case officer).

Throughout the book, Ostrovsky claims to reveal details of the internal workings of the Mossad itself. Ostrovsky claims that Mossad has access to Jewish helpers all around the world called sayanim (sg. sayan). Their services can supposedly be requested on short notice and no questions are asked. Because of this, Mossad only needs 30-40 active case officers at any given time. He also explains the different departments functions and how liaisons are conducted with foreign intelligence agencies.

As he progresses as a katsa, Ostrovsky experiences growing disillusionment with the organization and its leaders, and begins to question its motives. This culminates in his retirement from the Mossad after being scapegoated for a failed attempt at capturing top PLO officials.

The book describes not only his own experience but devotes the second half to other operations that Mossad allegedly carried out between 1971 and 1985.
