Movie review
From Time Out New York
If this documentary is to be believed, all of the conspiracy theories about the current Iraq War are right on target. Narrated by a stoic Ed Asner, the movie is a crash course in modern Middle East–U.S. politics, from Iran's 1979 revolution to the present. Unfortunately, most of the movie's "revelations" won't surprise anyone: Who doesn't know that life sucks in Guantanamo Bay's prisons, or that Halliburton is making a killing (pun intended) reconstructing the country it helped destroy?Author: RS
