NO ANSWERS, JUST QUESTIONS AND A LOT OF LISTENING

I highly recommend this interview with Steven Spielberg about his new film Munich. I haven't seen the film yet, but the interview itself makes one think about the cycle of violence and retribution.

As Noam Chomsky said recently, "War is the ultimate failure of the human spirit." The end of the Spielberg story makes us want to believe that the human spirit could triumph, if only there were more apolitical venues for personal communication.
