Breaking The Silence

The discrepancies between the "war on terror" and the facts on the ground in Afghanistan and Iraq are many. 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 retaining their power, religious fundamentalism is expanding 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, as one woman says in the film, "in many ways worse than the Taliban" -- which, after all, is funded by the United States, remember?

As the U.S. stands at the brink of invasion into Iraq, many are now warning about the potential consequences: the danger of getting 'bogged down' in Baghdad, the prospect of long-time allies leaving America's side, the possibility of chaos in the Middle East, the threat of 'renewed terrorism'. The Bush administration insiders who helped define the doctrine of pre-emption and who have argued most forcefully for invasion, are determined to set a course that will "remake America's role in the world"...

The untold history of The Project for the New American Century is no more. This film exposes how every major war in US history was based on a complete fraud with video of insiders themselves admitting it. This documentary shows how the first film theatres in the US were used over a hundred years ago to broadcast propaganda to rile the American people into the Spanish-American War; the white papers of the oil company Unocal which called for the creation of a pipeline through Afghanistan and how their exact needs were fulfilled through the US invasion of Afghanistan; how Halliburton under their "cost plus" exclusive contract with the US Government went on a mad dash spending spree akin to something out of the movie Brewster's Millions...

Hijacking Catastrophe examines the evidence that neoconservatives used the September 11, 2001 attacks to usher in a new doctrine of expanding American power through military force under the guise of a "war on terror" and that the doctrine -- known as the Project for the New American Century -- had been laid out prior to 9/11 by its authors, which include Dick Cheney, Paul Wolfowitz, Donald Rumsfeld, Jeb Bush and Dan Quayle...

Why We Fight

By: Eugene Jarecki

880 views

Is American foreign policy dominated by the idea of military supremacy? Why We Fight examines America's policies regarding making war, most recently the Iraq invasion and what is termed "the Bush doctrine" that includes pre-emptive strikes. This policy has been in the works for many years on reflection of the past wars of the 20th century alone. In this film, a variety of people are asked "Why We Fight?" with a variety of answers, followed by a look at today's U.S. military industrial complex via interviews with individuals involved with it...
