There was no 'Peter Miller', and Roshman died in Paraguay!


And Odessa was just one of the many former nazi organizations that came after World War II. And probably wasn't that powerful! And, yes, West German scientists were helping Arabs to get rocket missiles, no different than USA, Britain, USSR [now Russia] using the German knowledge [ever heard of Von Braun?]. Of course Arabs wanted "to wipe out Israel" [but this story in the novel and movie I have my doubts]. And Israel's Mossad created a scandal after killing one of the scientists, injured a German woman secretary with a mail bomb, and abused a teenage girl, daughter of one scientist engineer. Even Ben Gurion was embarrasssed, and Israel press criticized those acts. This movie is fictional. Don't take it "seriously".

JFC, it's a MOVIE, not a documentary.

This will be the high point of my day; it's all downhill from here.

It's a novel, mate. There was no Jackal, either.

I agree with the other replies; it's fictional drama - and very gripping, entertaining drama, at that.

And I suppose you'll tell me that a spy name Jason Bourne never killed Carlos the Jackal, either?

How can I tell if Jason Bourne didn't kill Carlos the Jackal? Well, for starters, Bourne is a fictional character. Secondly, Carlos the Jackal, whose real name is Ilich Ramírez Sanchez, is still alive.

Or were you replying to the original poster? if so, why the *beep* did you respond to me?!

I can tell you with 100% certainty that Carlos the Jackal was never killed. I can also tell you with 100% certainty Jason Bourne is a fictional character. How can I be so certain? For starters, Carlos, whose real name is Ilich Ramírez Sanchez, is alive in prison. Secondly, Jason Bourne is a character created by Robert Ludlum for his novel The Bourne Identity.

In other words, I was using something called "sarcasm". It was my way of saying the exact same thing Augustus said, which was "No sh!t, Sherlock."
well also ok u shoud NOT smoke bcos its vry bad ok
And how is that any of your business?
well u cud have huff huff wit good pants and glus bcos such is NOT ilegal like bad pots and it makes u 2 feel vry good and vry smart and u cud do anything even b presidnt and evry 1 wud bow down b4 u!!!!
What the *beep* does this even mean? Bad pots? Do you mean marijuana? Yeah, that's so horrible (sarcasm!) that people use it for medicinal purposes or to even take stress out of their lives.
