DO THE JEWS CONTROL "THE

DO THE JEWS CONTROL "THE MATRIX"?: This weekend I watched all three "Matrix" films in the space of 36 hours- viewing my VHS copy of the original, renting the DVD of "Reloaded," and then seeing "Revolutions" on the big screen. I actually liked the third film more than most people did- it wasn't nearly as exciting or groundbreaking as the original, but there was some incredible action, the ending was completely incomprehensible but not unsatisfying, and unlike the first sequel, it didn't merely consist of one long speech after another.
One interesting thing I noticed- about five minutes into the film, when the crewmembers on the ship are running a search of the Matrix for Neo, one of them says, after he doesn't show up, "we've got bupkus." Yes, actual Yiddish, in the Matrix! Along with Neo being a neocon, and Zion being populated with Zionists, this strengthens my theory of the Jewishness of the Matrix.
Weaknesses in the theory? A Christian messiah, the presence of the not-so-pro-Israel Cornel West, and their ship being named after Nebuchadnezzer. the Babylonian king who destroyed the first Temple in the year 586 B.C.E.
A full review will be forthcoming later this week...
