Kinda sucks...

Gyllenhaal Terrified of Discussing Political Opinions

Hollywood actress Maggie Gyllenhaal has vowed to keep her political opinions to herself, because she's still suffering the media backlash over a remark she made about the September 11th terrorist attacks in April. The New York native was at the premiere of her movie The Great New Wonderful, which is set in the city a year after the al-Qaeda attacks on the Big Apple, and investigates New Yorkers' feelings about the tragedy. But while describing the movie, Gyllenhaal famously suggested America was "responsible in some way" for the attacks, but was forced to retract the comment following a media uproar about her anti-American sentiments. And now she's too terrified to discuss her thoughts, in case she accidentally sparks controversy again. She says, "I was so surprised by the way it was misunderstood, and the disdain that came back at me was a real shock. I regret what I said, but I think my intentions were good. Neither the red carpet nor an interview about a movie is the right place to talk about my politics. I realize I have to be careful, because it's very easy to misunderstand a complicated thought in a complicated world."

Found it while browsing IMDB.

More like "it's very easy to misunderstand a complicated though in a world that craves simplicity."

In a statement issued after the controversy, Gyllenhaal said that September 11 provided 'an occasion to be brave enough to ask some serious questions about America's role in the world'.

"It is always useful, as individuals or nations, to ask how we may have knowingly, or unknowingly, contributed to this conflict," she explained.
Wow. Saying we may have knowingly or unknowingly contributed? She's going to Hell.

Especially ignoring the fact that we did unknowingly help bring it on...What with elevating tensions in the Middle East, what with funding Osama a couple decades back, what with our superpower "World police" status and attitude...
