peace by way of war…
By david On January 31st, 2006(expanded from a comment on lara’s post about munich)
i just went and saw munich last night, and it was so intense and the characters were so motivated by hatred that it seems hard to believe life actually runs that way for so many…but spielberg did a good job of showing how real it is, and how quickly it can escalate and spiral out of the control of everyone involved. it was scary when i began to consider that those events really happened, and how utterly blinded the men who planned and carried it out are by centuries of mutual animosity. and it really makes me sad that such deep-seated enmity exists in the world. so many clamor for peace and understanding, but as long as they seek it by way of human wisdom, rather than through Christ, i’m afraid no real change is going to occur.

and the last shot with the twin towers in it…my roommate and i couldn’t even think of a word to describe how it made us feel.
