Clooney Says ‘Au Revoir’ to Hollywood, Goes French With Wife and Twins

Actor and hardcore liberal George Clooney has packed up his wife and their 8-year-old twins and headed off to France, where they have become French citizens. Why? To escape Hollywood culture.

State-of-the-art underwater robots will in the coming days begin mapping the abyss of the Indian Ocean, hunting a lost Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777 and all 239 on board.

The expedition by a private company called Ocean Infinity is the latest chapter in an on-off search that has already become the most expensive hunt in aviation history, but after more than a decade, has little to show for it.

Spielberg Uses Schindler’s List Money to Fund Anti-Israel Protests

“Let Gaza live,” a mob of anti-Israel protesters screamed, brandishing signs falsely accusing the Jewish State of “ethnic cleansing”, “starving Gaza” and genocide while illegally blocking traffic outside the Israeli consulate in Midtown Manhattan.

The only thing more disgusting than the ugly spectacle, which had been timed around a Hamas famine propaganda campaign over the summer, was that one of the hate groups behind the anti-Israel protest, which ended in arrests, was funded by proceeds from Schindler’s List.
