Gal Gadot Has an Adorable Moment With a Young Fan, Internet Responds with Anti-Semitism

[Behind the Aegis]

THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP!!

A normal person may have seen the footage from Comic-Con this weekend showing Gal Gadot and Ezra Miller talking to a little girl dressed as Wonder Woman who cried because she was so happy to meet hero big-screen hero and found it sweet or touching. I would say that was the reaction of most people to this heartwarming scene.

Gadot comforted the young girl, saying “Now we are friends so there’s no reason to cry anymore. We are together!”

The internet, however, is full of people who are far shittier than most people. While we swooned over how sweet Gadot was to her tiny doppelgänger, there was no shortage of people who couldn’t wait to remind us that Gal Gadot is Israeli and that makes her bad because of barely concealed anti-semitism

Not at all surprised. "Intersectionality" at its best. BTW..."Wonder Woman" is the summer's BIGGEST box office hit, despite the "fear" many had a female driven (and directed) superhero film would never be a money-maker. Fun to watch misogyny and anti-Semitism "intersect".

1. Gal seems lovely inside and out

who is the guy between her and Ben Affleck?

2. That's Jason Momoa.

Jason Momoa plays "Aquaman". He is also in a Netflix series Frontier which is awesome!

6. aw he has that bad boy look I adore

I always went for that kind of guy but was smart enough not to marry them

[yuiyoshida]

14. Jason Momoa

played Conan the Barbarian (2011). Loved him on StarGate:Atlantis because he was funny as hell!

[Skittles]

20. I will have to check out some of his work

oh dear, I hope BTE forgives me for hijacking his thread with such superficial stuff

21. He is a great actor.

What is crazy is he plays all these "bad asses", but in interviews, he is a big goofball and very charmingly sweet. Look up some of his interviews on YouTube.

I do forgive you for this "distraction", but I can't forgive the misspelling of my acronym!

You know what to...put yourself on the schedule!

[Skittles]

22. OOH SORRY BTA

KICKING MY OWN ASS!!!

[Warren DeMontague]

8. He also was Khal Drogo on GoT

[Silver Gaia]

15. He also played Ronon Dex in Stargate: Atlantis for several years.

That's where I first encountered him. He's definitely impressive!

3. Those comments are vile

I recently got to see the movie at a small outdoor theater in Mykonos and LOVED it. People need to get a fucking grip.

4. yeah, yeah.

Rub it in my face you got to go to Greece again and saw Wonder Woman there! WW is Greek.




Hope you had a great time!


Yeah, the comments are foul, but oh so predictable anytime a Jew is involved.

10. Since when is WW Greek?

Wonder Woman is an Immortal Amazonian Princess. Greece is on the Mediterranean Sea, not the Amazon.

[Silver Gaia]

13. The river is named after the Amazons, fierce women warriors who

are part of Greek mythology. That's how Wonder Woman is Greek. She is not from South America. She is from a mythical Mediterranean island.

18. Since, like, forever?

"Wonder Woman's origin story relates that she was sculpted from clay by her mother Queen Hippolyta and given life by Aphrodite, along with superhuman powers as gifts by the Greek gods. However, in recent years artists updated her profile: she has been depicted as the daughter of Zeus, and jointly raised by her mother Hippolyta and her aunts Antiope and Menalippe; artist George Perez gave her a muscular look and emphasized her Amazonian heritage; artist Jim Lee redesigned Diana's costume to include pants (although now Wonder Woman uses a skirt and the New 52 pants design was never used officially); she inherits Ares's divine abilities, becoming the personified "God of War.""

16. It was a wonderful vacation

and we kind of just stumbled on this theatre down a little street we don't remember ever walking down before. Saw a midnight showing of WW. I've been so glad that such a woman-centric movie has done so well this summer. My sister landed in Tel Aviv earlier this morning and I was hoping the decision to remove the metal detectors (ones I am fully in support of, 2 cops killed show how necessary they are) would calm things down. I should have known better.

5. Sickos. I mean how do you get there from the video? What is the process?

Actually I don't want to know what it takes to be so bigoted.

[Doug the Dem]

7. Hate? On the Internet?

Surely you jest!

[DinahMoeHum]

9. Something to cheer you all up. . .

[roscoeroscoe]

11. Great!

I love it - passed that along to Wonder Woman herself - my wife!

[AwakeAtLast]

19. And there's going to be a sequel!

[yuiyoshida]

12. Video made me tear up..

17. Totally righteous in every way! k&r, nt
