...Philadelphia high school, science teacher Elliot Moore (Mark Wahlberg) is yanked out of class to be told, along with the other teachers, about the events in New York City. No one's certain if it's a terrorist attack or a random quirk of nature, but "some kind of airborne chemical toxin" is spreading across the Northeast that's making people kill themselves. The pupils are sent home, and Elliot decides that he, his wife Alma (Zooey Deschanel) and his math-teacher buddy (John Leguizamo) will get out of town. The movie is the story of their flight...
...Bush Administration, which has held some of the defendants for five years of interrogation and torture at secret locations, the trial offers a timely opportunity to remind Americans of the terrorist threat. Showcasing sensational evidence of the 9/11 conspiracy will not only assist the trial and possible execution of its alleged perpetrators, it will bolster the Administration's approach to its continuing "global war on terror."

The mutts provide him with a nom de stylist (Scrappy Coco). After landing, a mild mannered young man named Michael (Nick Swardson), whom Zohan rescues from a snooty street bully (his habit is to literally tie bad guys into knots), provides him with...
Confessed terrorist mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed told U.S. military judge Ralph Kohlman on Thursday that he would represent himself at his tribunal, and that he welcomed the death penalty that would make him a "martyr." But Mohammed was clearly taking advantage of the opportunities offered by his arraignment in a heavily guarded, high-tech courtroom at Guantanamo on charges of helping to murder nearly 3,000 people in the 9/11 attacks. For one thing, his courtroom appearance offered him his first chance in five years of near-total isolation to communicate with his four co-accused...
