Mel Gibson’s hateful anti-Semitic words are coming back to haunt him with the publication of a new book in which he is quoted as saying the Holocaust is “horsesh*t.”
Screen writer Joe Eszterhas has published his new e-book titled Heaven and Mel about his experience trying to work with Mel, and it reveals everything he previously claimed about the hot tempered actor – his anti-Semitism, his rage issues and his extreme Catholic sentiments,and Breaking Celebrity News has a few excerpts from the shocking new tell-all.
“The sun is setting in Malibu and Mel and I are out on the patio talking about Alan Nierob, my former publicity agent and Mel’s present one, a man both of us view as a friend. ‘Do you know his dad is a Holocaust survivor?’ I ask Mel. He looks at me with that flinty eye. ‘The Holocaust is mostly a lot of horsesh*t,’ he says. I know he’s goading me. He knows how I feel about the Holocaust…
“’They’re just a bunch of oven dodgers,’ he smiles. It is an actorly smile, the kind of smile Robert Mitchum did so well in The Night of the Hunter.”
Eszterhas was working with Mel on a screenplay when he wrote a scathing letter revealing why he wouldn’t continue their business relationship.
“I’ve come to the conclusion that the reason you won’t make The Maccabees is the ugliest possible one. You hate Jews,” Ezterhas wrote.
Gibson, whose famous racist violent rants against his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva were caught on audiotape and published exclusively by Breaking Celebrity News discusses his rage issues with Eszterhas and his wife, Naomi.
