America Betrayed trailer

From 9/11, to the war in Iraq, to the worst disaster in U.S. history, the levee failures in Hurricane Katrina, America Betrayed follows the money, and the path leads straight back to the hallowed halls of Congress the profits straight into the pockets of those with ties to the Executive Branch.

America Betrayed is the story of waste, fraud, and abuse at the very highest echelons of our federal government. Through interviews with Pulitzer Prize winning journalists from the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times and TIME Magazine, to noted scientists from Berkeley and Harvard, to U.S. Senators and Congressman, America Betrayed takes an in-depth look at just how our governments dirty little secrets have impeded an investigation into 9/11 and nearly ruined a great American cityNew Orleans.

The gloves are off, and the inside story is being told, as longtime broadcast journalist and documentary filmmaker Leslie Cardé talks for the first time with insiders who know exactly how the game is played. From the contractors who built sub-standard structures in New Orleans and were told to keep quiet, to the whistleblowers who sacrificed their jobs to come forward and expose the cover-ups, cooked books, and cronyism nationwide within the Army Corps of Engineers, this film digs deep to unearth the truth. While scientists charged with investigating the Katrina disaster were intentionally led astray, journalists dug their heels in to get to the root of disaster capitalism,a process by which government insiders cash in with emergency no-bid contracts, in times of national stress.

America Betrayed clearly exposes our governments misappropriation of funds in spending its citizens hard-earned tax dollars on rebuilding the Iraqi infrastructure, while the bridges, dams, levees and highways in this country are crumbling. America Betrayed is a cautionary tale for those who trust their government, and hopefully a wake-up call to change the status quo in Washington.

I see people waking up.

Spread it.

[FalseFlag369]

@leatherbraider No argument with that! Under the guise of a "National Emergency," martial law can be declared, a curfew enforced, COG (Continuity of Government) enacted, giving dictatorial power to the Executive, with kill on sight orders. Now McCain wants to shove through legislation attached to defense funding that will allow DOD/CIA authority to arrest and hold anyone indefinitely, without trail, counsel, or charge, and torture as necessary.

Katrina was a test to see how far FEMA could go.

Not to rescue. A test for control of an area.

National gaurd ordered to take weapons and they refused.

Watch out Homeland sec and fema is not right. Connect the dot but not with the media.

The Bush administration was so inept and uncaring before and after the disaster, that one wonders why he wasn't impeached. Not just for the Katrina disaster, but the lies he told to go to war in Iraq. An investigation should be conducted on his administration, starting with the WTC buildings collapse on 911, and the war crimes committed on his watch. Extraordinary Rendition, torture, killing of civilians, preemptive strikes, Patriot Act, assassination teams all call for a trial!

The tsunami is coming to us. it's simply a matter of time.

9/11 wasn't a 'disaster,' it was planned and executed by the Israeli MOSSAD. our own CIA and FBI, with help from the White House.

9/11 was a FALSE FLAG/INSIDE JOB from the very beginning; it was a planned 'disaster.'
