...Jewish extremism, and made plans to attack Arabs. But security officials believe the suspects outside the inner circle may have known only generally about the assassination plot and failed to stop it. Last week Avishai Raviv, the acknowledged leader of the secretive extremist group Eyal, was released under house arrest, indicating he was probably not involved in the assassination itself. It is thought he may have turned state's witness. But investigators are not finding it easy to crack all the suspects.

What is ahead, the mediators hope, is an agreement to end the conflict between the Bosnian-Croat alliance and the people with whom they are still at war, the Bosnian Serbs.

Instead of his tape, he himself ended up on Hard Copy...
...please, we're preoccupied--and the audience is invited to watch their downward spiral. We're not talking high, morally instructive tragedy here, just a hard lesson in postmodernist outlawry and its sad little anarchies. Writer-director Mike Figgis (Stormy Monday, Internal Affairs) places a few opportunities to arrest their course along this pair's path, but Ben and Sera don't notice them, and he refuses to exploit them for dramatic purposes or even for ironic effect...
