CNN--A Florida doctor arrested after police found more than 15 homemade explosive devices in his home drafted a detailed plan to blow up a Muslim educational center, investigators said Friday.

In an interview one of my favorite directors, Francis Ford Coppola, said if you want to know who is running the world just look and see who is hiring the artists, actors, filmmakers, journalists and so on . I guess based on his comment, it's very easy to say that at the moment Jewish community is running the world!! I just envy their talents and I wish other communities instead of nagging could realize what Jewish people have realized long time ago.

P.S. Many of Jewish actors, filmmakers and journalists are my favorite artists.

French Sept. 11 Picture Has Anti-U.S. Elements

The movie's first segment, from Iranian filmmaker Samira Makhmalbaf, begins with Iranian schoolchildren explaining, "The United States want to bomb us, so we must built shelters."

An interesting report about Iran-Iraq war: THE UNITED STATES AND THE IRAN-IRAQ WAR( By STEPHEN R. SHALOM )

The Iran-Iraq war was not a conflict between good and evil. But though both regimes were repugnant, it was the people of the two countries who served as the cannon fodder, and thus ending the war as soon as possible was a humane imperative. Instead of lending its good offices to mediation efforts and diplomacy, however, Washington maneuvered for advantage, trying to gain vis-a-vis the Soviet Union and to undercut the left. The United States provided intelligence information, bogus and real, to both sides, provided arms to one side, funded paramilitary exile groups, sought military bases, and sent in the U.S. Navy -- and all the while Iranians and Iraqis died.
