Tuesday, November 8th, 2005 at 1445This short film is about the atrocities conducted by the invading army of the US in Iraq, specifically Fallujah. The only weapons of mass destruction in that country were the ones the yanks took with them.
Admittedly, these days I could be arrested and detained indefinately for saying stuff like this, such is the world we’re living in.
I just wonder how this is going to play out. M.A.D ? A tyranical American super-state a-la Adolph’s original vision? It doesn’t smell good to me, not good at all.
Atrocities in Fallujah, Iraq
Note: Please be aware this clip contains graphic images, and may shatter any illusion you were clinging to about the US being leaders of world peace and liberty.
More on the BBC about US Use of Chemical Weapons.
You could add to that the use of Anthrax weapons testing on sheep by the British in certain Scottish islands.
Or perhaps our atrocious behaviour during WWI / WWII ?
How about the British concentration camps during the Boer war of the late 1800’s ?
Rape, pillage and destruction of natives in Canada and North America.
The list goes on and on .. back for hundreds of years.
War is ugly .. it always has been and always will be.
I myself don’t find it surprising that the US doesn’t want to stop using their “chemical” weapons, Napalm was their favourite weapon during Vietnam, and they refuse to sign up for even environmental issues (like cutting pollution?) .. so asking them to stop the ways of their military is futile in my opinion.
Having a zenophobic jingo-istic mega-lo-maniac (a-la George W Bush) in charge certainly doesn’t help matters much .. he just wants to finish off the wars his dad started .. bring back Clinton in my opinion .. make love, not war 😉
Jesus, turned that video off after 5mins. Thorough waste of time.
On one side you’ve got CNN telling you that Saddams elite republican guard is fighting hard, and on the other you’ve got documentaries like this claiming Iraqi’s carrying guns shouldn’t be military targets. Warmonger/Hippies.
Both sides of the story are completely filled with lies, propaganda and make you think exactly what the film-maker wants you think; Whether or not its true though…
Reminds me of a quote:
Both sides might lie, but i still think it’s nice that there’s more than one part telling us “the truth”
Why? You just end up with two sets of lies to ignore. Hooray.
That brought me to tears Den.
