American Decay: CBS Story on Neocon Gay Porn King

[Mike Ellis]

In a sane world, guys like this would fear to have their names published. In the cesspool of modern America, he's a heroic artiste who spends his time and money lobbying for Israel.

So what ever happened to the idea of assimilation, and the notion that people who emigrate to America should be focused on AMERICA?? Move to Israel, ya bum!

Gay Porn's Neocon Kingpin, The New Republic: Michael Lucas Causes Controversy More For His Views Than His Films - CBS News

Here's a couple of the less vomit-inducing paragraphs:

Born Andrei Bregman to a secular Jewish family in Russia, Lucas is a graduate of Moscow State Law Academy. But he always craved celebrity, and the allure of fame enticed him to Berlin in 1995 to work as a model and prostitute. He came to the United States in 1997 and founded Lucas Entertainment the following year, eventually earning enough to move his parents and grandparents from Russia--"the putrid country of my birth"--to New York. Ever the resourceful entrepreneur, he put his father to work as a set constructor on his films.

Like many Russian Jews who were forced to repress their identity under Soviet rule, Lucas's Jewish heritage is the anchor of his worldview. He visits Israel annually. Not long after touching down there last month, he penned a manifesto on his website titled, "I stand with Israel, I stand with Jews." Shortly after the Lebanon war in 2006, he put on a live sex performance in a Tel Aviv nightclub where IDF members were given free admission ("in the tradition of American USO-style shows," as a Lucas press release described it).
