This video is inaccurate, The Republic of Costa Rica formally objected to be included in the Coalition of Willing (it was the US' own decision to include them) and was subsequently withdrawn from the list.
In the film when Rumsfeld said "it's the mother of all coalitions", that was the one part where I actually laughed hehe, the rest I was just appalled.
also it isnt really fair to the thousands of dutch soldiers who worked their asses of in a country they didnt want to be in in the first place. Lets not forget those who losttheir lives for Ws crazy plans. @friedstuffable
@friedstuffable in a fair war, probably. My point is that the US stores an amazing amount of old nuclear missiles in NL. The dutch army, still,is one of the most advanced. But Lets not even beginto compare it to the usa
We don`t have a army, only old soviet equipment, and second hand u.s. arms. romania has a lot more important problems than attacking a nation that was not hostile to us. and nato is in my opinion a band of bullys that do as they please. they attacked iraq and affghanistan for oil and gas. why don`t they help to stop the civil war in Chad for example or in Côte d'Ivoire, because it`s not profitable. they are hypocrites in my opinion

A sad thing this documentry maker, who thinks he know everything, didnt know the Dutch army is one of the most advanced of the world. The Netherlands can disable and kill every single american in 1 day.
hm....maybe you are right...but this documentary maker wanted to make a point...and that being that tha americans had no right to be in afghanistan or iraq....neither the dutch army !!!!!!!!!
No, we were fooled into that. Even i was. But at least the Netherlands tried to stabalize the country by not being on a "fighting mission", like it's called in NL.
dude get real if the usa dropped 5 nuclear bombs on the netherlands the whole country would be gone ur country doesnt have one nuclear weapon and we spend $350,000,000,000 a year on our military your comment made me laugh
dude get real. first, why r u saying, ur country. the netherlands does have nuclear weapons. Enough to destroy the entire northern american continent. Maybe you didnt know that. maybe you dint know nuclear material from the entire EU are researched in holland. US thinks its the world ruler. but they are not. at all. EU, russia, Japan and china are just as powerful. so fuck US for that. buncha losers.
O, and maybe they should spend those 35,000,000,000,000 pennies on stabalizing the economy. because that sick spending-before-earning economy of US is a dissease on the world. for example europe, it had a perfectly stable earning-before-spending economy untill some fools thought it was cool to invest in american companies. thats where it all went wrong.
Funny thing, when i first saw this, i'd only seen a few of Moore's films. 11 months later i'm a fan. He makes a valid point, but he is mocking these countries.
@ACDC653 What's even the point of this discussion?. Of course the US army is the strongest in the world, but that doesnt mean there are no countries with sufficient nuclear power. Moreover, neither the US or any sensible country would be interrested in doing any such thing.
@ACDC653 That's none sense, a huge ammount of British soldiers killed in Afganistan are freindly fire incidents, and barely any Americans by British, the American Army is pretty crap cause you all take high school drop-outs lol, in Britain you need to of done atleast average in secondry school to get any position in the Army, that's why our Army isn't full of trigger happy fools, sadly though our politicians are almost as stupid as America's, and accually allied with the US for profits...
point taken about those countries, yet showing a guy smoking pot in Holland and a vampire in Romania is mocking theses countries. Its just like stereoptyping US by showing Hannibal Lector in a cage. He does the same thing in "Sicko" by making fun of Slovenia-Can he even locate Slovenia on a world map???
zorro14142 u are right about thouse other countries but he just wanted to be sarcastic....by the way i am from romania and i think he is right we shoulden`t be there
I think in the coalition of the willing also included Spain Germany Italy, he just forgot to mention them and btw the Netherlands, Romania do have an army , why did he have to make fun of those countries?!

That's smart. Spend all the money on the military instead of health and education, both of which are really bad compared to other rich countries.
