THE WAR ON DEMOCRACY 7/10

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.

Good question. Where is the humanity? It's not in the White House.

Duane Clarridge's philosophy mimics that of Hitler's final solution.

[dariusmartin78]

The reality is that in the first part of the 20th century, and later on, until maybe the 90's people still had the courage to fight oppression.

Now, there's no need for torture and murder, working till you drop for corporations does it for them. They've reached their goal: world domination.

cia works directly for owners of usa, they own everything all media industrys etc, and when they cant buy a country up suddenly you americans ear in the news they are commies and terrorists and want to attack you, usa army is private because it will always be used for the interests of rich never for usa security its clever deal because the rich hav their own army and weapons only the dumb american taxpayer pays for them, my point is the bail outs, private companys dont get public funds, only usa

[badsign1980]

to understand what the usa really is... you have to look at the flag of english west indies company witch was one first private owned private military to conquer exploit and subdue countrys, usa was conquered under british west indies canada, australia nz and india, not the uk itself, rothschild bought west indies, wall street traded first stocks dutch w indies c. solt to brits... usa is a privatly owned country a giant company privatly owned with profits for owners and the damage for ppl

All for what? Power and profit.Control and greed.That CIA agent was a disgrace.There is no hope for humanities prolonged existence with people such as him and his masters around.And maybe thats not such a bad thing.I feel hopeless and helpless watching this documentary.Worst of all I recognize the same capacity for evil(i.e.the use of power to harm and control others) within myself.I might go for a walk.Too fucking depressing.
