According to the site, the report said Gibson's comments included, "F------ Jews... The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world," and that he asked a deputy, "Are you a Jew?"

Gennaco said he does not know if the alleged police report posted on TMZ.com is authentic, but said, "It looks authentic. It's formatted the way police reports are formatted, and I've looked at thousands of reports."

The Anti-Defamation League, which was critical of the portrayal of Jews in "The Passion of the Christ," called Gibson's statement "unremorseful and insufficient."

"It's not a proper apology because it does not go to the essence of his bigotry," said Abraham H. Foxman, the group's national director, in a written statement.

Gibson's latest movie, "Apocalypto," set in the Mayan civilization of several centuries ago, is due in December.
