Cock 'n' Flaw?

Naturally, the common people don't want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along.... All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country.".

Great documentary. War profiteers aren't only in Iraq. Liars aren't only in the Government.

This report saddens me. I feel for the people of america, and for our troops. And we People still eat up crap that Bill O' Reilly, and other clown faces out there feed us. Americans did three things wrong since the end of the clinton era 1) we elceted Mr. Bush 2) we supported the war 3) we elected bush again.

Thanks for posting. Highlights the dangers of politics and patriotism being allowed to invade on the territory of the `FREE press`. Media is the 21st century WMD!

skepticism is patriotism. We need honest media and it's harder to find then ever

The decision makers should be banned from making a profit off the war. In corporate America they don't want a person with a conflict of interest making company decisions so why should Bush and Cheney be able to send us to die for oil and Haliburton's profit lines?

As long as ratings are high for the news networks, don't expect the press to change - it will never be what it once was. Making the advertisers happy has become the bottom line.

Thanks for posting this excellent report.

Where the hell is the justice, for lying to the Congress, lying to the UN, lying to the American people? I'm talking about the Bush administration. Even bigger crooks than the Mafia! And that Dick Cheney, what a greedy two faced liar he turned out to be huh?

[arod2222]

now i think the only question is whether what was done was ugly or sinister?
