I absolutely agree z/m!
When I first saw this I remember thinking,"This is a documentary that SHOULD be mandatory in high schools and colleges".
It should be seen regularly NOW on LinkTV and Free SpeechTV for ALL Americans,not to mention other nationalities to REALLY get their heads out of the blissful sand,and REALISE the facts.
25 minutes into this doc,is a fantastic summary of how America DESTROYS other Nations TRUE DEMOCRACIES,where the leaders are GOOD and,rightly,want their OWN RESOURCES to benefit their NATION and people,and HOW AMERICA,THE IMF,WORLD BANK ETC,WILL NOT ALLOW that by sending in the:
1)economic hit men,to ruinenlsave the foreign economy.
2)Jackals,(CIA,assassins etc)in institute coups,regime change to PRO-American etc).
3)The military,to solidify the new US-FRIENDLY despots,dictators,oil men etc.
This has happened SO MANY TIMES,it's SHAMEFUL for Americans.And they wonder why the rest of the world HATE THEM/US?
I love my country,but am under NO illusions about "the American Dream" because I am old enough to know now,that OUR 'dream' comes at the EXPENSE of others happiness and INLAIENABLE HUMAN RIGHTS,from which,OUR Corporate Government,want to ALIENATE them,totally,and CRIMINALLY.AS IF IT WAS OUR RIGHT!
It just BLOWS my mind how America HIDES and censors SO MUCH of the real truth from it's citizens! But it's easy to see why.
How can we remain deludedly PROUD of our Nation,i.e. Governments,if we know THEIR REAL PRACTISES AND ATROCITIES? If they relkatives of GOOD CONSCIENCE people(such as myself)we would DISOWN THEM and CAST them out of the family,for bringing such shame and pain.
It just stuns me STILL,that we can PREACH about "Democracy",and "Freedom" so much YET our whole policy format world-wide,is to STRIP OTHERS of their Democracies,Freedoms and RIGHTS,unless WE CONTROL them all,OUR WAY !!!
I remember,when the Democracy of Iran was ousted,because of the UK/US oil interests.I couldn't BELIEVE that the US/UK(CIA)should 'install' such a BRUTAL KILLER as the Shah instead.Same in South America and the Middle East AND Africa.It's so HYPOCRITICAL!
But,this film outlines ALL these actions,of US DESTRUCTION of other Nations FREEDOMS and Democracies to suit OUR OWN ENDS.
Below is a quote that came up in the documentary,about Al-qaida, by Robin Cook,a WONDERFUL STATESMAN,POLITICIAN AND HUMAN BEING,also 'bumped off' like the rest,because he SPOKE OUT and said,
"There is no such terrorist group called al-Qaida."
It is a CIA/MI5-6 COMPUTER list(computer "base"=al-Qaida) of REBEL FIGHTERS that the USA had employed/paid/ARMED to fight the Ruskies in 1980 in Afghanistan,LOL!
I remember MANY of these OUSTED foreign Governments,where the DEMOCRATIC leaders were mysteriously killed in plane-crashes,car-crashes,heart attacks etc,right at a time when they STOOD UP FOR THEIR ETHICAL,MORAL,INDEPENDENT PRINCIPLES and even PATRIOTISM for their OWN Nations."America did not like that"(as it says in the doc).
Well! Look what happened to John F.kennedy!
When he BEGAN TO INSIST THAT Israel either DISMANTLE their Nuclear Plant,DIMONA,or comply with regular IAEA inspections.Within months HE WAS DEAD,ASSASSINATED,a PRO-Israel Pressie INSTALLED,and POOF! All pressure about Israel's ATOMIC WEAPONS PROLIFERATION was buried under the NEW Oval Office 'RUG'.
And CIA and Mossad were involved THERE!
And just as Robin Cook,bless him,was STANDING UP for RIGHT over MIGHT,he too "died"

If only AMERICANS knew more,it would be a different,more HUMAN,HUMANE,INTELLECTUAL,and universally MORE respected Nation,with STRONG MUTUAL ECONOMIC,DIPLOMATIC,MUTUALLY THRIVING TIES.
But,our Government won't DO IT!
They WANT IT ALL! Whether it OURS or not!
No matter the cost,consequences,circumstances and SHAME.
"CHANGE" can go in the garbage after the elections!
THEY MUST perpetuate the ESTABLISHMENT STATUS QUO,even if it's digging OUR OWN GRAVE.....DEEP!
Period!
LINKTV should run this FOR A WEEK!
And so should FreeSpeech TV.
I'll dream that ONE day we'll have a MSM that consider it normal to run docs like this. Then,we will REALLY be in a TRUE DEMOCRACY.
Until then,it remains a MYTH!
What a waste!
