Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Platypuschow I'm dual nationality US & UK, I've spent half my life across each nation and have always been far prouder of my American heritage but by that I mean the country, it's people but not it's government.Let me clarify, the British government is atrocious and highly corrupt but the leaders over the pond have taken it to the next level ever since their creation.This fantastic piece by British journalist John Pilger is about Americas direct influence into Latin American countries such as Chile and Venezuala and the atrocities they have caused to better their own interests.Heartbreaking, powerful and eye opening if you aren't aware of the steps the US go to further their economy this is essential viewing.The USA for anyone with any awareness is the proverbial boy who cried wolf. They manipulate their people using the media to such an extent with their lies that every time a new story comes out you do have to question it.They've been lying about the middle east for decades and still are. At time of writing how much of what we are told about North Korea is true? And how much is to sway public opinion to their own personal agendas?The Good: Professionaly made Great interview segments Essential viewingThe Bad: Doesn't make for the easiest watch Things I Learnt From This Movie: The US has attempted to overthrow 50 governments, more than I had originally believed

steny138-918-38968 This movie is a pile of dung. He doesn't have any references to any of the "facts" he is spewing from his mouth. I know from my life experience that some of the things he said are true but it's the rest that he fails to prove. Just like a Michael Moore documentary he has no actual evidence to back the claims, by the way Carl Deal helped produce this pile*. Yes the wars and conflicts that are highlighted in the movie did happen. The problem is that he mentions "secret" documents from the U.S. that implicate the united states. He does not mention where they came from, a place where we can cross reference these allegations or even a expert opinion from an impartial investigator. I am a liberal and can't even support this garbage for a second. Overall this movie has no right to be rated so high. If you try to read the critics reviews on this site you will see that most are taken down. I am sure they wrote a good review then realized they had made a mistake. Watch this movie for entertainment only. * Wikipedia.com, IMDb.comOW look at that, References!

Adrian Edwards I do not wish to add more praise on my fellow-Australian than has been heaped on him so far, but it was great to see a well made documentary covering the way the US corporate empire tries as desperately to hang on to its satrapies as did the Roman and Ottoman empires.We had the unpleasant experience of having our popularly elected government led by Gough Whitlam destabilised by the CIA while at the same time they were backing Indonesia's illegal invasion of East Timor in which six Australian journalists were murdered. It turns out that the coup by which that Indonesian leader, Suharto, came to power was also orchestrated by the CIA, and thousands of Indonesians, especially ethnic Chinese, were slaughtered in the name of anti-Communism.It is by now well known that the casus belli for the war on the Vietnamese, the so-called Gulf of Tonkin incident, was a total fabrication, used to justify President Johnson's decision to reverse President Kennedy's plan to withdraw all troops from South Vietnam.There is plenty material here for The War on Democracy II if John wants to do a sequel.

zero And it's probably not going to be thing that prevent this to reach 10 score IMHO, but the fact that this documentary carry a lot of burden to deliver the facts and truth, and in many ways it did. For those who thinks this is one sided approach and subjective they have their right of believing that, but for us who live near the facts it's the other side story that opens what we always feel and experience but never had the chance to reveal it to the world. There are many case in my country that possesses many similarities with things showed in this documentary, from the Reagen's era of communist fear until now, from the oppressive backed-up leader to now... minus that we don't have Chavez type of person here, which is very unfortunate. On the short notes yes this is very one sided documentary shows, whether you despise it or love depend's on your experience and point of view, but for some this one just complemented the other side of story which always been oppressed by the great force in shadows. probably only time will tells the real truth about this and many events around this movies.
