...struggling. But authorities believe violence motivated by hate is increasing, in part because hate groups now wield powerful new tools, including the Internet and the arts of media management, to attract a different breed of racist. More college kids and suburban residents have joined, and WCOTC is even making direct appeals to women. Also drawn to the fiery words are loners who feel profoundly disaffected by societal change, young men who are already on the edge of violence...
Despite the lovefest, says TIME Jerusalem bureau chief Lisa Beyer, "the relationship won?t be entirely free of friction. Under Netanyahu the U.S. became intimately involved in negotiating agreements and refereeing their implementation. Barak wants the U.S. to step back from that role and allow Israel to settle disputes directly with the Palestinians."

Warner owns the rights to the script--just as MGM owns the rights to another Kubrick script, Napoleon--but there are no plans to make the film. Pity...
...risky course, because it could eventually leave the hard-liners facing a unified rebellion from the population." Monday?s protests went ahead despite an order by Tehran?s National Security Council forbidding demonstrations without official permission. And as much as Khatami can see the danger of pursuing a direct confrontation with the security establishment, he may not be able to rein in a student body that is beginning to discover its collective power. And if the students opt for an early showdown with the hard-liners, Khatami could find himself among its victims...
