It was a great film - The action sequences were highly amusing, and at times quite shocking. My favourite scene had to be in one of the missions, with the Israeli troops attacking those arab dudes incognito with automatics etc....
I also didn't feel sympathetic to either side by the end of it, although I did feel as though Spielberg kind of wanted us to feel some sadness for the Israelites...Which Is ok, I suppose - I just really didn't want it to be a one-sided film and I came out feeling as though It was done quite well.

yeah, lots of Jews were angry because they thought it made them look bad, like they should have dealt with it in another way, or completely ignored what happened.

was just thinking about this after watching the movie :
i actually admire the plo and other crazy fukers like that. it says a lot about a person or persons who believe so strongly in something ( right or wrong, who the fuk am i to judge ) other than the persuit of prime time tv, audis, and a 500g house in the suburbs.
i respect what they do, even when its done against my own country. they seem like strong, driven, courageous fukers. they arent so different from any other soldier if you truly think about it without bias. their tactics are just a bit different, and motivated more by their funding than their ability.

Yea people who kill innocent children and women, Hijack planes full of innocent people and murder people are someone to REALLY admire.
* The 1970 Avivim school bus massacre by PLO members, killed nine children, three adults and crippled 19.
* In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, the second-largest PLO faction after al-Fatah, carried out a number of attacks and plane hijackings mostly directed at Israel, most infamously the Dawson's Field hijackings, which precipitated the Black September in Jordan crisis.
* The Munich massacre of Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics was carried out by the Black September group, which was allegedly affiliated with the PLO. This group also hijacked a plane flying from Belgium to Tel Aviv.
* In 1974 members of Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine carried out the Kiryat Shmona massacre at an apartment building in Israel, killing 18 people, 9 of whom were children.
* In 1974 members of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP), another faction affiliated with the PLO, seized a school in Israel and killed a total of 26 students and adults and wounded over 70 in the Ma'alot massacre.
In order to settle a wrongful death lawsuit, the PLO has paid an undisclosed sum to the daughters of Leon Klinghoffer, who in 1985 was murdered aboard the cruise ship Achille Lauro during a hijacking by the Palestine Liberation Front.

They were accidental deaths like a small village in a crossfire, yea some fucked up dude in vietnam or iraq or elsewhere might be going apeshit and killing people on purpose, these fuckers purposely attacked school buses and schools for the sole purpose to terrorize and scare people.
