"Munich" criticized again
Could it be that $pielberg is well aware that "controversy $ells", and has deliberately produced that controversy?...
Charles Krauthammer comments on Steven Spielberg's "Munich":
"Instead, he decided to call this fiction "Munich" and root it in a historical event: the 1972 massacre by Palestinian terrorists of 11 Israeli athletes at the Olympic Games. Once you've done that -- evoked the killing of innocents who, but for Palestinian murderers, would today be not much older than Spielberg himself -- you have an obligation to get the story right and not to use the victims as props for any political agenda, let alone for the political agenda of those who killed them."
