As I said, she is by far not the first voice arguing like in that film. It really is nbothing new. But history shows that hacking away at a critical author's person is a proven method to silence unwanted criticism.
Nobody believes America anything anymore, and if information is given from american sources, for some the source itself is the reason why they immediately increase the level of confirmation practices, or even sort that american info out at once. America simply is not trusted anymore, and the film's arguments, that had been raised in essay and book form so many times by now, explains excellently, why this is so. What has become obvious for the vast majority of the global public and even the ameircna people themselves is - thata ll the reasons for the war were no reasons, but stinking lies, and the prupose has been a very difefrent one than what they officially told the public. Well, I had taken bitter fire on this board for having said essentially the same about Bush and the reasons for the Iraq war like what the film says. And it is still the same people, I assume, who back then were against my opinion, and now refuse this film as well, that is only consistent, at least.
Of course you attack it, AL. We all knew that you would do it. For you can live with the neocon strategy for an american century most comfortably, it offers you the maximum support possible. It is in your (and your nation's) interest to battle any other interpretations of the neocon policies, and the Iraq war. But this does not make some your arguments that you had given in the past necessarily true. Much of them were at least as manipulative and false like you accuse the opposing view to be.
As you know, there are many things you and me do agree upon. But there are also very many things were we could not be more different in views. Let's both accept that it is like this - without any attempts to sneak in a cheap stab from behind. None of us will change our minds over Iraq.
