Below are three episodes from the BBC program TimeWatch.  According to Internet Movie Database, TimeWatch began in 1982 and still appears to be airing as of 2009.

According to the subscriber who posted the first episode on Google Video:

This series is about a far-right secret army, operated by the CIA and MI6 through NATO, which killed hundreds of innocent Europeans and attempted to blame the deaths on Baader Meinhof, Red Brigades and other left wing groups. Known as ‘stay-behinds’ these armies were given access to military equipment which was supposed to be used for sabotage after a Soviet invasion.   Instead it was used in massacres across mainland Europe as part of a CIA Strategy of Tension.   Gladio killing sprees in Belgium (Belgique) and Italy (Italia) were carried out for the purpose of frightening the national political classes into adopting U.S. policies. This is essential to understanding the networks that carry out false flag terrorism and the roots behind 9/11.

A quote from the below video:

“Deception is a state of mind and the mind of the State”

– James Jesus Angleton, Head of CIA Counter Intelligence 1954-1974

Third of three programmes exploring th influence of `Gladio’ a terrorist network organisation operating in Europe.   This programme examines the kidnapping and subsequent of murder of Aldo Moro. This is essential to understanding the networks that carry out false flag terrorism and the roots behind 9/11. These documentaries were originally aired on BBC2 in 1992.

Mr. Newman asserts World War I was actually caused by Brittan’s desire to invade Iraq for oil. Mr. Newman states this is why the Orient express was actually constructed.  WWI was sold to the world and the citizens of the of the United States by the U.S. Committee on Public Information, which Edward Bernays was a member of.  This is essentially where Edward Bernays began to understand the true power of propaganda.

In this film Robert Newman examines the history of the conquest for oil.

Mr. Newman points out the UK and US press have not bothered to cover the 14 permanent military bases being constructed by the US in Iraq.

Mr. Newman examines the 1953 Coup against Iran launched by Brittan and the U.S. which is covered in more depth in the Bill Moyers PBS documentary Secret Government:Constitution In Crisis.

Mr. Newman hypothesizes on a few reasons why the US may have invaded Iraq. One is oil, but the other is Iraq switching to Euro s over Dollars. This caused banks to flush out dollars and accelerated the Inflation Tax.

Robert Newman’s video History of Oil can be purchased from his web site RobertNewman.com/shop.html, but the video appears to only be available in PAL. The UK video standard is PAL. The US standard is NTSC.

Diane Feinstein (Democrat) and Orren Hatch (Republican) worked together (and probably still are) to give the telecommunication companies retroactive immunity against lawsuits for warrantless wiretaps. NPR did a story on this issue, but there was something I found odd. I started hearing, “This program was sponsored by AT&T” and then the coverage dropped off.

As they mention in the documentary Joseph Goebbels said “What you want in a media system” and he meant the Nazi media system “is ostensible diversity that conceals an actual uniformity.”

Orwell Rolls in his Grave provides the following information and then some:

According to the nonpartisan congressional Budget Office: between 1979 and 1997, income for families in the middle rose 9% from $41,000 to $45,100, while income for families in the top 1% rose from $420,000 to $1,016,000 — a 140% increase.

Why has the response to a rise inequality been a drive to reduce taxes on the rich? [That's a good question--see Matthew 19:16-26]

A CNN/Gallop Poll conducted March 2003, found that 61% of the American people thought Saddam Hussein as personally responsible for the September 11th attack. Out of the 911 hijackers 15 of the 19 where from Saudi Arabia; the others were from Egypt and Kuwait [all us allies]. How did the American people get such a distorted view of who was behind the attack of 911?

Five months before the 2000 Election Governor Jeb Bush moved to purge 57,000 people from the voting rolls, supposedly ex-felons. Florida’s Secretary of State, Katherine Harris, was Bush’s campaign manager. The Governor is his brother.

CBS News killed the story on the basis of a denial by Governor Jeb Bush, who was the TARGET of the allegations.

From George Orwell’s “Animal Farm”
… and the sheep bleated
“4 legs GOOD, 2 legs BAD.”

… and then they bleated
“4 legs GOOD, 2 legs BETTER.”

Bush keeps rallying to get rid of “The Death Tax.” Bernie Sanders points out only 2% of the population is even rich enough to pay estate tax, yet the American people have been duped into thinking there is a death tax that’s plaguing people in the US.

Michael Powell (son of Colin Powell) was head of the FCC. Michael Powell said free Air time for candidates is:

“… unconstitutional and an infringement on the broadcaster’s free speech rights”

“.. have no idea what the public interest is.”

“The oppressor here is regulation.”

You may have guessed Michael Powell got rid of equal air time for Presidential candidates, but who would tell you that?

Does this explain why the Obama Administration, just like the Bush Administration, will only allow preselected questions?

Helen Thomas had previously stated the Bush Administration started filtering all questions.  Only the questions the President’s staff wanted to answer were allowed through, and that allowed the replies to be prepared in advance.  The President would then only call on the people who’s questions he wanted to answer.

Helen Thomas being an unbiased reporter is expressing her outrage because the Obama Administration is carrying on this Bush policy like many others policies.

If you pay attention during Obama’s press conferences, you will notice Obama is doing exactly what Robert Gibbs is attempting to do, only in this case Helen Thomas and Chip Reid are calling out Robert Gibbs on manipulating the press.”

John Pilger‘s documentary The War on Democracy is a fascinating film that looks at U.S. foreign policy in Latin America. This is important to keep in mind when it comes to the U.S. bringing democracy to Iraq.

John Pilger‘s The War On Democracy examines:

• Torture techniques used in Latin American Coups taught at the School of the Americas.
• 2002 coup against Hugo Chavez backed by rich and powerful interests under U.S. support, but Chavez was brought back to power by hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan people marching in their streets demanding his return.
• The 1973 coup that took out democratically elected Salvador Allende and put Augusto Pinochet into power. Milton Friedman’s economic techniques were used to establish an economy with a great disparity between the rich and the poor. This can be verified by viewing a chart of the Gini Coefficient (a.k.a Gini Index).
• Victor Jara was murdered by the Pinochet coup.
• Former CIA agent and Watergate scandal conspirator Howard Hunt, and Duane Clarridge, former head of CIA operations in South America.
• Dianna Ortiz is a U.SRoman Catholic nun of the Ursuline order. She is a native of the state of New Mexico in the United States. While serving as a missionary in Guatemala in 1989, she was abducted by right-wing forces and brutally tortured. Among other torments she was gang-raped and suffered over 100 cigarette burns
• The 1954 coup in Guatemala to over throw Jacobo Arbenz Guzman. Arbenz nationalized the land in the country and gave it to the poor. Much of the land was held by the United Fruit Company (now known as Chiquita Brands.
• On the brighter side — over the last five years Bolivia has been able to refuse multinational companies access their country’s natural reserves of gas, and water rights. Prior to Bolivia’s activist movement their natural resources where asset stripped by multinational interests

John Pilger examines the effects of globalization and turns the spotlight on Indonesia. Indonesia is a country described by the World Bank as a model pupil until its globalized economy collapsed in 1998.

Similar information is covered in John Perkins‘ book Confessions of an Economic Hit Man John Perkins examines how the World Bank’s has aided international corporations in devastating the poor of developing countries, and so does John Pilger.

This film examines the use of sweatshop factories on behalf of famous brand names like Nike.
Who are the real beneficiaries of the globalized economy? Who really rules the world now? Is it governments or a handful of huge companies? The Ford Motor Company alone is bigger than the economy of South Africa. Enormously rich men, like Bill Gates, have a wealth greater than all of Africa.

John Pilger takes a look at the World Trade Organization (WTO), who is operating like a quasi independent world government. A government looking out for global corporate interests–not individual people.
At the end of this film John Pilger calls for the end of the IMF, WTO, and World Bank. He suggests they should be replaced by democratically accountable organizations. John Pilger then quotes a document from the United States Space Command. The document states:

The globalization of the world economy will continue. With a widening of haves and have nots, only military dominance will protect America’s commercial interests.

“Why should we except this? Why should our children have to face these divisions and dangers. None of them are God given. All of them can be changed.”

This film can be purchase in the U.S. through Bullfrog Films for personal viewing for $29.95, but Bullfrog Films also offers a $39 version The $39 price includes a public viewing license so you can show the film in public. The one stipulation is you can not charge admission. Local Film Societies are a great screening option as well as local libraries. Good promotion options are local radio, handing out flyers, and public service announcements in local papers.

This is a video clip of the John Perkins Interview from Zeitgeist Addendum from http://zeitgeistmovie.com. People may wonder if what John Perkins has to say is true. John Perkins is the author of “Confessions of an Economic Hit Man.”I know people have been offended by Zeitgeist because it’s critical of religion. For this reason I am asking people to analyze the film in sections. Do some research before you dismiss what John Perkins has to say.

I would like to point people to these references to study.

These very credible documentaries backup everything John Perkins has to say.

Google Mexico IMF and World Bank.  Pay special attention to the press releases.  See what you come up with. Closing the World Bank and the IMF may be the real way to end illegal immigration in the United States.

Forcing the World Bank and the IMF to forgive all debts may be the real way to end global poverty. They need to be closed down before they can hurt anyone else.

In Breaking the Silence John Pilger examines the history of US and British intervention in Afghanistan

Pilger brings to light Jimmy Carter authorized $500 million to support the Mujahideen six (6) months before Russia had invaded Afghanistan. Osama bin Laden was created by this funding and was regarded by the US and Brittan as a “Good Terrorist”.

Americans were completely unaware their government — along with the MI6 (British Secret Service) — had begun training and funding terrorists.

Soon after the Taliban came to power 1996 the administration of Bill Clinton backed a secret plan for a pipeline through Afghanistan from central Asia which has vast reserves of oil and gas.

After 911 the United states invaded Afghanistan, and drove out Taliban, only to place warlords in power. Although driving out Taliban was claimed as a great victory, The warlords won’t allow women to study, have burned down girls schools, and force woman to wear burkas just like the Taliban.

Unlike the Taliban, the war lords support poppy fields that supply most of the heroin being sold in the US and Brittan.

In order to establish a perspective on US foreign policy, Pilger interviews a number of experts: pro and con.

Pilger interviews Ray McGovern a former CIA operative who gave the U.S. President his daily CIA intelligence report for 30 years. Ray Ray McGovern was a personal friend of George Bush Sr. McGovern states there was a group in Washington referred to as “The Crazies.” “Anyone knew who you were talking about if you mentioned the crazies.” The Crazies are now personal friends and allies of George W. Bush: Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perl, Doug Feith, and Donald Runsfeld.

Pilger interviews William Kristol the President for “The Project for The New American Century”. William Kristol states the problem with the U.S. is being to slow to get involved in foreign countries. William Kristol states the U.S. would not intervene in any “decent” country.

Pilger states to Kristol since World War II there have been 72 interventions conducted by the United States. William Kristol replies “That is ludicrous.”

John Pilger goes on to document these interventions, like the U.S. intervention in Chile.

John Pilger does miss one issue. In nearly every case there was a financial interest at stake. In Chile Salvador Isabelino Allende Gossens wanted to nationalize the copper mines, kicking out multinational corporations. This was covered by HBO Chile.

John Pilger uses the Freedom of Information act to examine documents like “The National Security Strategy of The United States of America.”

Pilger interviews Reed Brody from Human Rights Watch. Mr. Brody States the U.S. government multiplied it’s aid to Indonesia as slaughter in East Temor was increasing.

Pilger interviews Denis Halliday former UN Assistant Secretary General. Halliday likens the current U.S. situation to when children where trained to hide under their desks in case a nuclear bomb were to strike. Halliday states the Axis of Evil is fundamental rubbish and part of a political game.

The United States now has 152 military bases around the world. The U.S. military calls this full spectrum dominance.

Charles Lewis from The Center for Public Integrity likens the situation to the Roman Empire.

George Bush states “We cannot accept and we will not accept states that finance, harbor, train, or equip the agents of terror. Those nations that violate this principle will be regarded as hostile regimes.”

Amnesty International has documented thousands of terrorists who were trained in The School Of The Americas who have been granted safe haven in the United States.

Pilger speaks with Colonel Rod Davis Director of Public Affairs for CJTF 180 in Coalition Military force stationed at Bagram Air Base in Afgahnistan. Colonel Davis assures Pilger no torture takes place at any of the holding locations, no abuse, they receive medical attention, and they are fed.

Pilger states there have been reports [of human rights violations]. One example is a military pathologist who sited a man named Delewa who’s death was attributed to homicide. Colonel Davis states “Anyone who’s fair would have to say that Americans in particular but certainly members of the coalition aren’t known for committing atrocities. That’s not part of our history, that’s not the way we do business. It’s not the way we treat people.”

Another example is Wasaya Mohammed, a Kabul taxi driver, who disappeared into Bagram last year [2002]. He’s now in Guantanamo Bay. His crime was to enquirer about another taxi driver who has since been released. Mohammed has never been charged with any crime. Pilger states what makes this case so appalling is this man is recognized by the present government as having resisted the Taliban. He had no connections with Al Qaeda.

There are nine (9) British Citizens being held in Guantanamo including Shafike Razual. Shafike Razual was kidnapped and taken to Guantanamo two weeks after he had arrived in Pakistan where he has relatives. He has been held for two years without being charged.

Andrew Wilkie former Australian Intelligence Officer. Mr. Wilkie is the only serving western intelligence officer who has broken cover to expose what he considers to be the lies that lead the West into the war with Iraq.

General Wesley Clark former NATO commander states from the time he served he never saw any evidence produced to show Saddam was behind Al Qaeda. Clark states “The only reason to have gone to war to deal with a threat so eminent and so dangerous that war as a last resort was the only means available. As I weighed the evidence as I watched the debate emerge. I reflected on my own experiences I listened to the discussions from the Pentagon and inside the White House as I checked with sources in Congress and people who were current on the intelligence that simply wasn’t the case.”

Douglas Feith under Secretary of Defense (remember Ray McGovern stated he’s one of the crazies), states he does not think the threat of weapons of mass destruction was a lie. Feith points out Saddam used weapons of mass destruction on his own people.

John Pilger counters that most of the biological weapons Saddam used, and their components were sold to him by the US and Brittan. Pilger goes on to cite it’s on the record in the Library Congress. A congressional record of a US Senate inquiry from October 27th 1992 shows the US approved the sale of biological weapons from ATCC and Porton Down in Brittan.

Colan Powall’s speech from February 2001 stated Saddam “He has not developed any significant capabilities with respect to weapons of mass destruction. He is unable to project conventional power against his neighbors.”

Condoleezza Rice Bush’s National Security Advisor stated stated in July 2001, “We are able to keep arms from him. His military force has not been rebuilt.”

This was covered up after September 11th when Bush and Tony Blair decided to invade Iraq. Condoleezza Rice had told one official, “The decision has been made. Don’t waist your breath.”

As of the making of this film it was estimated 10,000 civilians died in the attack on Iraq. John Pilger provides footage of injured civilian in hospitals, and interviews Jo Wilding, human rights observer. Wilding describes the wounded civilians in agonizing pain. There wasn’t enough anesthetic in the hospital to administer to all of them.

John Bolton (under Secretary of State) assures John Pilger the number of Iraqis killed was the absolute minimum for modern warfare. John Bolton also accuses John Pilger of being a member of the Communist Party.

At the end of the documentary John Pilger features conclusions by many of his interviewees.

Rita Lasar’s brother Abe Zelmanowitz was killed in the twin towers on 911. Lasar states “There is something so similar between our administration and Al Qaeda, in it’s certainty that God is on its side that it’s laughable. And that the American people should fall for this lie hurts me more than I can tell you.”

Pilger speaking to Ray McGovern states “Norman Mailer wrote the other day that he believed America had entered a prefascist state. What’s your view of that?”

Ray McGovern: “Well In a way, and I’m not saying this to be cynical, but I hope he’s right because there are others who say we are already in a fascist sort of mode. If you say something often enough people begin to believe it, and that strategy has been applied with unfortunately great success by this administration.”
