I sat through the entire thing, with a sick feeling in my stomach. I was one of those who supported the need for 'something to be done about Iraq'. However, in the time since the war began - I would read bits and pieces from media (not controlled by corporate interests) and started to question some of the claims made by the coalition. This documentary consolidated all those facts into a coherent and devastating journey, following the greed of a few and apathy of many. Since the middle of last year - I've come to the sickening conclusion that I was manipulated by the rhetoric and fear espoused by those with a vested interest in seeing profits in death and destruction - what made it so much worse was that I was complicit in this ruse.
I thought this doco represented a fair and accurate summation of what should be viewed by the whole world as a tragedy for and travesty against humanity.
Michael Moore and many of the people who were interviewed deserve the highest praise for speaking out - Courage is seeing wrong and speaking out against it, cowardice is staying silent or apathetic.
I thoroughly recommend this documentary.
