ÚLTIMOS DIAS DE BAR KOCHBA

Num episódio da 2ª temporada da série de HBO, Da Ali G Show, o actor judeu Sacha Baron Cohen utiliza a sua personagem “Borat” como veículo para sacar a flote a indiferença dos demais ante o ántisemitismo.

A cena do reality show desenvolve-se num bar de Tucson (Arizona) onde Borat interpreta uma versão judeófoba do standard “In my country there is a problem” [ver vídeo abaixo], que remata sendo coreada por toda a concurrência.

Baron Cohen sustentava numa entrevista em “Rolling Stone” que a indiferença foi o passo prévio ao Holocausto.

Depois das reacções maioritárias ante o discurso de Obama em El Cairo a semana passada, tememo-nos que não lhe falte razão.

In my country there is problem,
And that problem is transport.
It take very very long,
Because Kazakhstan is big.

Throw transport down the well,
So my country can be free.
We must make travel easy,
Then we have big party!

In my country there is problem,
And that problem is the Jew.
They take everybody's money,
They never give it back.

Throw the Jew down the well,
So my country can be free.
You must grab him by his horns,
Then we have big party.

If you see the Jew coming,
You must be careful of his teeth.
You must grab him by his money,
And I tell you what to do...

Everybody!

Throw the Jew down the well
So my country can be free
You must grab him by his horns
Then we have big party

Throw the Jew down the well
So my country can be free
You must grab him by his horns
Then we have big party!
