THUMBS DOWN TO SPIELBERG'S "MUNICH"

I HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE AND I'D WELCOME THE COMMENTS OF ANYONE WHO HAS. I HAVE READ SPIELBERG'S INTERVIEW WITH TIME MAGAZINE IN WHICH HE EXPRESSED HIS VIEW OF THE MORAL EQUIVALENCE BETWEEN ARAB TERRORISTS AND ISRAEL'S EFFORTS TO DEFEND ITSELF AND PRESCRIBED A BIG GROUP HUG AS A CURE-ALL FOR THE "CYCLE OF VIOLENCE." THESE ARTICLE DISCUSS HOW THOSE THEMES ARE WOVEN INTO THE MOVIE AND HOW THE MOVIE IS FULL OF INACCURACIES AND FABRICATIONS.

I REMEMBER SITTING IN FRONT OF THE T.V. IN 1972 WATCHING THE KIDNAPPING AND MASSACRE OCCUR. I REALLY HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO WATCH OR ENJOY FOLLOWING THE OLYMPICS SINCE.
