"When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall — think of it, always." Mohandas Gandhi
In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act. George Orwell

Excelentes documentários parte I

a partir deste post vou começar a indicar neste blog diversos documentários que vi sobre diversos temas, estão todos online quer via google video quer através de youtube ou mesmo da própria página oficial do documentário.

começo hoje por dar a conhecer um excelente documentário sobre as mentiras que foram contadas pela administração Bush e Blair com a nossa ajuda nas Lajes, sobre os motivos que levaram a atacarem o Iraque, bem como a destruição que a coligação na qual se incluem tropas portuguesas tem efectuado no Afeganistão, e de como neste momento aquele país é controlado pelos senhores da guerra, os quais controlam cerca de 75% do tráfego de nárcoticos mundial.

é um documentário escrito, produzido e dirigido por John Pilger, um jornalista inglês.

Breaking the Silence: Truth and Lies in the War on Terror

A Special Report by John Pilger


"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". Now, the familiar old warlords are regaining power,
religious fundamentalism is renewing its grip and military skirmishes
continue routinely. In "liberated" Afghanistan, America has its
military base and pipeline access, while the people have the warlords
who are, says one woman, "in many ways worse than the Taliban".


In Washington, Pilger
conducts a series of remarkable interviews with William Kristol, editor
of The Weekly Standard, and leading Administration officials such as
Douglas Feith, Under Secretary of Defense for Policy, and John Bolton,
Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security.
These people, and the other architects of the Project for the New
American Century, were dismissed as 'the crazies' by the first Bush
Administration in the early 90s when they first presented their ideas
for pre-emptive strikes and world domination."
