He served time in an Israeli prison between 2004-2007 for involvement in Hamas terrorist attacks.<br /><br />Under interrogation he revealed his role as the cell's bomb-maker, having learned how to manufacture explosives by watching instructional videos online. " </i>? <br /><br />I don't believe this at all. He had tohave personal hands on instruction. How can they buy this?<br />Sammy Finkelmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05105012664741556033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-22303987495074868992016-06-01T00:42:56.122+03:002016-06-01T00:42:56.122+03:00Actually this should already be very well known to...Actually this should already be very well known to someone before reading "Unbroken." <br /><br />The story of Louis Zamperini was told several times by the way - the first time in the 1950s. There are some differences in the details in the different versions. Sometimes maybe the later might be correct; sometimesmaybe the earlier.<br /><br />You can also catch a taste of what Japan then was like in the science fiction movie "The Final Countdown" made in 1980 - just the fanaticism, which is correct.Sammy Finkelmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05105012664741556033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-12534938723033776572016-05-30T20:24:01.601+03:002016-05-30T20:24:01.601+03:00Yes.

One can say the kamikaze had unorthodox war practices, but they were flying their planes into heavily armed ships that were shooting back at them with quite a lot of military hardware and might. A kamikaze would never lower themselves to the point of entering a restaurant and blow themselves up murdering innocent civilians, women, and children.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-49323074390190513582016-05-29T18:30:04.064+03:002016-05-29T18:30:04.064+03:00I agree with both of you.
