Diferent

actors but I've seen the movie. So many know the truth. So many won't accept it.

Mike, thanks, fine vedio and puts some points together.

And never forget, “Humans, despite our artistic pretensions, our sophistication and many accomplishments, owe the fact of our existence to a six-inch layer of topsoil and the fact that it rains.”

Thank you

for sharing.

Very informative. Thank you.

It is important to only get your information from people you agree with on everything. That way you don't get muddied with to much knowledge or perspective. Just a thought for the day.

Interesting perspectives over there. I only share it, I don't buy into it.

Pilger is a good guy

A confused anti-war socialist, but a good well meaning guy.

I can't figure out why he's a socialist

Have you seen him discuss his politics in depth anywhere?

There was a recent video of him in the

DP forums, sorry I don't have the link; he was speaking at a Socialist convention. I was willing, because of his strong antiwar stance (which now includes statements against the Obama administration with no mincing of words) until he lauded Venezuela's current government as a victory for "the people."
With that I realized he's as dishonest in economics as the Republican/Democrat duopoly is about war.
(The forum post in which the video appeared had a headline saying something about being joined by the Left; unfortunately I can't remember it.)

I'm watching a documentary on Venezuela right now

The story is pretty damn interesting. There's some really strange parallels with Obama. I didn't know the cable news over there had many of its own Glenn Becks and Sean Hannitys. We never get the right story.

I haven't seem him discuss non-war politics too much

But I'm pretty damn sure that he is a socialist. He spoke at the 2009 Socialist Workers Conference for ex: http://brianakira.wordpress.com/2009/08/26/john-pilger-at-so...

He's definitely a socialist. I watched him talk at "Marxism 96"

And I saw a great doc about Rupert Murdoch killing the Daily Mirror newspaper in the UK. The guy gets it. But how do you get from exposing tyranny around the world to desiring a different implementation of it. Very strange. But I may be starting to see what these true socialists are all about. It's like they see government as an animal that can be trained to help people or dominate them, they never think of killing the beast and eliminating the issue.
