THE WAR ON DEMOCRACY 8/10

John Pilger's documentary explores the historic and current relationship of Washington with countries such as Venezuela, Bolivia and Chile. Pilger claims that the film "...tells a universal story... analyzing and revealing, through vivid testimony, the story of great power behind its venerable myths. It allows us to understand the true nature of the so-called "war on terror". According to Pilger, the films message is that the greed and power of empire is not invincible and that people power is always the "seed beneath the snow".

Pilger interviews several ex-CIA agents who purportedly took part in secret campaigns against democratic countries and who he claims are profiting from the war in Iraq. He investigates the School of the Americas in the U.S. state of Georgia, where General Pinochets torture squads were reportedly trained along with tyrants and death-squad leaders in Haiti, El Salvador, Brazil and Argentina.

Duane Clarridge: What a fine example of a human being. How it is possible to become such an utter bastard?

@TheDesertlight there's also a book with that title, and I can say, it's worth reading; along with another NK book, "No Logo"

Duane Clarridge represents the worst side of the United States, and comes across as bad as any of the thugs he put in power. Many of us were working against him behind his back even at that time, because we disagreed strongly with his fanatical and crazy views.

How come that the rest of the western world are all aware about the USAs imperialism and behaviour in other countries, yet our leaders do nothing?
