"John Pilger dissects the truth and lies in the 'war on terror'. 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".

i saw this at a screening with john pilger in attendance a few years back at the university of new south wales in sydney. and it was great to be able to ask mr pilger questions and get an immmediate response. the callousness of the whole war industry is mind numbing. and when its a fake war such as this it just makes the blood boil.

Interesting. I'm sure it was a very informative viewing.

For those still not quite aware of the situation at hand you might want to drag the slider and watch for a few mins at 19 mins with regards to the PNAC references of America "fighting multiple simultaneous wars" .....planned wars.

They aren't even hiding their intentions. More war...more "involvement" aka murder and distress. This is what so many people are unaware of, and yet somehow they manage to argue against it like it does't even exist.

Astonishing, but given the state of the media....far from surprising.

I think if you asked Americans what PNAC is 8/10 would say something along the lines of a big mac with peanuts or something like that...
