    What, specifically, did he say or do to support them? And what was the state of the situation at the time that he said it?

    If you’re going to call someone “disgusting scum” you should have something more than a screenshot of a title posted by someone you think is a “terrible person”.

        That’s not specific. What did he say? Where? When? Citation?

        As far as I can tell, he took a 4 day vacation in 2011, and then played a role in a movie filmed there in 2012. He said he enjoyed the food and had a nice visit.
        Is that what you’re extrapolating from?
