Plot

A fact-finding tour to the hotly disputed Gaza Strip includes Donna, Admiral Fitzwallace and a few members of congress as they sort through the thicket of rival issues between the Palestinians and Israelis—but the killing fields soon claim some of the delegation when a deadly bomb shatters their vehicle and has the President considering targets for military action. In flashbacks, Donna is attracted to a dashing British photojournalist who opens her eyes to the conditions faced by inhabitants in the area.

Production

The incident in Gaza is based on the October 15, 2003 bombing of an American diplomatic convoy in Gaza, which killed three Americans. [ [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/3193248.stm BBC - Gaza blast hits US convoy] ]
