Why is this Rabbi in Viet Nam?
I am in Viet Nam, my first visit, and I want to let you know of why I am here and what I am learning.
It is Sunday evening–in Ho Chi Minh City [formerly Saigon] Why is this rabbi in Viet Nam? The question has been asked of me over and over during the last couple of months since I decided to come on this interfaith mission. I jokingly told some people that there was evidence that the lost tribe of Dan had been brought here 2800 years ago by the Assyrians and I was going to witness the archaeological evidence. Of course that is a bad joke or, weak humor.

Baghdad Blood and Baghdad Mud (Or, Whither Iraq)
Dan Rather recently traveled to Iraq to interview General Raymond T. Odierno, the commander of U.S. forces in the region. The complete report will air tonight at 8pm Eastern on HDNet.
On a rainy night in Baghdad, sleep won’t come. Only the ghosts. The ghosts of nights and days past. The interview with Saddam. The invasion, with its introductory mantra of “Shock and Awe” and the follow-on one of “Speed Kills-and Conquers .” The screams of the wounded and moans of the dying. The tired, drawn faces of frightened civilians. The determined, focused-on-mission faces of heroic U.S. soldiers and Marines; “…theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do or die.”

Cinefantastique Horror, Fantasy & Science Fiction Podcast V1:E5 – Overlooked & Underrated: Ink, Ghost Writer, Dr. Parnassus
It’s a genre light week, with no new horror, fantasy, or science fiction titles released in cinemas, so Dan Persons, Lawrence French, and Steve Biodrowski take this opportunity to shine a little much-deserved light on some overlooked and/or under-rated genre titles. The main topic of discussion is Ink, the surprisingly good low-budget fantasy film about a girl kidnapped by a dream demon. Also under analysis, Roman Polanski’s Kafkaesque thriller The Ghost Writer, starring Pierce Brosnan and Ewan McGregor, playing in limited release in New York and Los Angeles. And Terry Gilliam’s The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus, which received only a small release earlier this year.
