Saw the headline on Drudge: "Spielberg has already moved on; takes his biggest gamble with 'Munich'..."

What? A liberal is going to do a movie on the Olympic massacre of Israelis? By Palestinian terrorists? I rushed to the New York Times article...

That night in Malta, Mr. Spielberg quietly began filming the most politically charged project he has yet attempted: the tale of a secret Mossad hit squad ordered to assassinate Palestinian terrorists after the massacre of Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympics in Munich.

Ah. Okay. Never mind.

Mr. Spielberg's interest in the question of a civilized nation's proper response to terrorism deepened, aides said, after the 9/11 attacks, as Americans were grappling for the first time with similar issues - for instance, in each new lethal strike on a suspected terrorist leader by a C.I.A. Predator drone aircraft. In Mr. Kushner's script, people who have read it say, the Israeli assassins find themselves struggling to understand how their targets were chosen, whether they belonged on the hit list and, eventually, what, if anything, their killing would accomplish.

...yeah, I got it, already

In Mr. Roth's script, for instance, the Munich killings dominated the first 15 minutes of the movie. Mr. Spielberg, the readers said, was still weighing how to depict the massacre without minimizing its power, but also without overpowering the audience.

I imagine eliminating it entirely would probably work. Maybe they can show a headline on a newspaper or something.

Like I said, never mind.
