Breaking The Silence: Truth And Lies In The War On Terror-Full Length Documentary

Award-winning journalist John Pilger investigates the discrepancies between American and British claims for the 'war on terror' and the facts on the ground as he finds them in Afghanistan and Washington, DC. In 2001, as the bombs began to drop. George W. Bush promised Afghanistan "the generosity of America and its allies". Now, the familiar old warlords are regaining power, religious fundamentalism is renewing its grip and military skirmishes continue routinely. In "liberated" Afghanistan, America has its military base and pipeline access, while the people have the warlords who are, says one woman, "in many ways worse than the Taliban". In Washington, Pilger conducts a series of remarkable interviews with William Kristol, editor of The Weekly Standard, and leading Administration officials such as Douglas Feith, Under Secretary of Defense for Policy, and John Bolton, Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security. These people, and the other architects of the Project for the New American Century, were dismissed as 'the crazies' by the first Bush Administration in the early 90s when they first presented their ideas for pre-emptive strikes and world domination. Pilger also interviews presidential candidate General Wesley Clark, and former intelligence officers, all the while raising searching questions about the real motives for the 'war on terror'. While President Bush refers to the US attacks on Afghanistan and Iraq as two 'great victories', Pilger asks the question - victories over whom, and for what purpose? Pilger describes Afghanistan as a country "more devastated than anything I have seen since Pol Pot's Cambodia". He finds that Al-Qaida has not been defeated and that the Taliban is re-emerging. And of the "victory" in Iraq, he asks: "Is this Bush's Vietnam?

@ 21:17 Pilger OWNED W Kristol ! Brilliant moment. Watch his ugly baffoon face and smirk !!!!

What I have taken from this is that America had long planned this whole war on terror game. They set up Afghanistan long b4 the Russian Invasion knowing full well how it would pan out. The setting up over 30 yrs ago was Act 1 of the play.

The American Empire will fall just like all the other empires (Persian, Ottoman, Roman) etc.

I've known about most of this for quite awhile and this presentation is showing us the truth. John Pilger stopped short of pointing out that 9-11 was a setup to create a bogus war on terror, for the purpose of invading Afghanistan and Iraq. The plan is to bring all of the Middle East into the NWO, to secure and control the oil reserves, and for the trafficing of illegal drugs to the west. It is not about democracy or liberty for any of those countries.

@DuploRabbit Bob Marley " Babylon System" God given freedoms in America are being eroded quickly by the NWO agenda - the US is now a fascist police state.

"if we're overseas right now, then that means that the terrorist are not over here". A soldier quoted. I believe the 9/11 attacks are a conspiracy. All terrorist should be killed but every terrorist is a victim of their own environment, as they have to be taught these things(shooting or killing people)young to grow up a successful terrorist, they are sponges soaking up their environment. what if america did not invade when they did? they would be spending money on ammo for nothing big a.
