ADL to Will: You're Kosher Again, Thanks

It's all good in the hood between Will Smith and the Jews. Oy, it was giving us such a pain already!

The Anti-Defamation League just issued a statement to TMZ, saying that they "welcome and accept" Smith's statement that Hitler was a "vicious killer" and that it's clear that Smith didn't intend for his Hitler remarks to be construed as praise. "He took immediate steps to clarify his words and unequivocally condemn Hitler as an evil person," says ADL National Director Abraham H. Foxman.

Smith was "incensed" that a Scottish reporter took his remarks about Hitler out of context from a recent interview.

You'd have to be mentally challenged to think Will supported Hitler in the first place. I'm just glad this ridiculous misunderstanding has been clarified!

It was clear that Will's comments were taken out of context in the first place. That was very unfair to him.

"Smith was "incensed" that a Scottish reporter took his remarks about Hitler out of context from a recent interview."

Actually, it was TMZ that took his words out of context.

Still a stupid thing to say. Will's reprogramming is now complete, courtesy of the nuts at $cientology!

This is the most worthless story of the year. Will meant no harm by what he said and it makes absolute and total sense. Hitler probably woke up thinking what he did was right. He was a psycopath and that's the way they think. All of you people that think negatively towards Will over this need to grow up.

Of course Will did not say something as silly as Hitler is a good person. Anyone who believed this story is just as dumb as the reporter who reported it. BTW seen I am Legend 3 times now........I can't get enough of will:)

Wow just on Friday people jumped on Will calling him all kind of names, what about a little apology!! TMZ how about getting the right information before posting. Will Smith is a a great guy and I love him to the end of the earth i never questioned his statement. People remember reports are know for blowing things out of content. And people are so quick to judge. Just remember that when you socialize with your family/friends/ & collegues. Things are never told the way that you say them.

So plz be man enough and woman enough to apologize to Will Smith.... I love you man

Not A Fan, you don't have to like Will. Plenty of other people do. That's why he's a loving husband/father, successful actor, businessman and multi-millionaire.

Well, the ADL got its publicity -- via a #1 celebrity -- to close the year out.

TMZ will twist and manipulate...hurt and destroy anyone it gets an itch to hurt.

One day...someone will be killed by their pursuing mob of photographers. Seeing Harvey Levin behind bars on a murder charge might end some of the madness.
