While he has borne much of the criticism for stalling peace negotiations, he laid the blame for the bombing squarely on Arafat, who has lately made vigilance against Islamist militants a low priority. Within hours of the blast, Netanyahu responded with a program of unprecedentedly tough retaliatory measures. These amounted, in Arafat's view, to "a declaration of war," a characterization Netanyahu didn't even bother to dispute. "You can't have...

Beltway addicts, of course, will want to skip right to "Julius Caesar." Just make sure it's the 1953 version, with Brando...
...grade-Z films, directed the black musical Moon over Harlem--as well as pictures in Yiddish and Ukrainian--all in the same year (1939). These guys were tireless: from 1935 to 1945, hack-of-hacks Sam Newfield directed an impossible 150 quickie movies, including the grindhouse curio The Terror of Tiny Town, the only all-midget singing western...
