Jews are upset with the utter ineptness and ridiculousness of Jewish groups claiming to represent them. And Mel Gibson is the squabble's benefactor. See the article at Jewsweek.
I absolutely agree - I am totally embarrassed by the actions of the Anti-Defamation League with regards to this movie. As I may have mentioned before I live only a few blocks from the "Dallas" multiplex mentioned in the article. In fact I just got a postcard invitation to join a local church in the mail with "Jesus Is Lord" stamped on the back. And people wonder why I want to send my daughter to a Jewish Day School when the evangelical Christian community is subtly pushing their religion on children like so many trench-coated strangers offering candy.
To get to my original point, that doesn't mean I think there's going to be a pogrom in my town - just more pamphlets and postcards in the mail which is annoying enough.
