...Fiennes performance is a miniature device with intricate moving parts. Movie directors often want their actors to "go bigger." Fiennes goes smaller--and inside. His onscreen speech is a mix of concealments and confidences, of whispers in a cave or under the covers. And he's not speaking softly just so you will be startled when he explodes. In a crucial scene he's less likely to shout than to stare or slouch--or sob, as he does, quietly but with naked intensity, in The Constant Gardener. It's his way of inhabiting all sides of someone like Justin...
...Iranian program is as impressive as it is comprehensive, competing with and sometimes bettering the coalition's endeavors. Businesses, front companies, religious groups, NGOs and aid for schools and universities are all part of the mix. Just as Washington backs Iraqi news outlets like al-Hurra television station, Tehran has funded broadcast and print outlets in Iraq.

That was mostly posturing--all it took was something arch and underground, say, Operation Lockdown by Heltah Skeltah, to get me swooning...
Today the Gush Katif bloc of settlements is a fortress under siege, a surreal mix of suburbia and security. The tight skein of roads in the area, restricted to Israelis, run through barren no-go zones where every tree and plant and dwelling has been bulldozed for a hundred yards. Thriving hothouses and comfortable red-roofed villas set in lush, green gardens spread across the dunes, huddling inside rings of razor wire and electric fence. Three-story military watchtowers draped in camouflage rear up out of back gardens, and tanks patrol the perimeters. The only Palestinians allowed within view...
