The provocateur who brought you "Piss Christ" pinches off a new concept.
Pitts also waxes on at length about how in 1972, during summer break from college, he worked at an Israeli kibbutz. He tells the story of how he was almost killed in the Lod Airport massacre the first night he arrived in Israel when a three-man hit squad from Japan smuggled weapons onto an Air France flight and then opened fire once they landed in Tel Aviv, killing 26 people. Pitts also recounts the time when walking in the Old City of Jerusalem an Arab man became angry that Pitts was carrying an Israeli flag.
"I responded by turning the flagpole around and pointing the metal attachment end at his head, and prepared to fight if necessary," Pitts states in the document. "I have put my very life and body on the line for the sake of a homeland for the Jewish people, Israel. It is noteworthy that I have born much more personal physical risk in helping Israel than Mr. Schechter has."That may or may not be the case, but it certainly shows how far afield the two men have strayed from the original lawsuit claiming breach of contract.
"It's just playing hardball," says Pitt's attorney Steven Smith.
