I prefer Stauber's neologism, 'military spindustrial complex', thanks to the large corpus of investigative reporting available.
Namaste. |

Wow! I just saw this movie tonight (downloaded it). Really intelligent treatment of the subject produced by the BBC. Please watch it!  |

Yes, an important movie.
Watch it, and then read "Sleeping with the Devil" and "Assassin's Gate" .
And then download...
Lots of good sources out there that involve neither Michael Moore nor Fox News. |

This is a great documentary.
You should also check out "The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara"
Another great documentary. Robert McNamara was the secretary of defense during the JFK term and the cuban missile crisis. Really well done. It's also shot in a new format.
I highly recommend it. |

America has forgotten about "democracy" a long time ago, it's all about the capitali$m now...
Like Korea, there is a moral void in America because of this "selling out"... |

As much as I disagree with Worldwide with his/her rampant, irrational anti-Americanism, I think it's important to recognize his/her right to express it (a right no communist system like Worldwide might envision would ever recognize, but I digress).

Contribute nothing. You don't like what he/she has to say? Ignore it or try to change his/her mind. |

Actually, the comments are perfect and quite necessary...they help make the point.
The thing that's strange is jinju's inability to use words that aren't censored. For an English teacher, his vocabulary seems quite limited. |
