The greatest enemy of knowledge in not ignorance

Malcom X: They attack all of us for the same reasons.
All of us catch hell from the same enemy.
We're all in the same bag,
in the same boat.
We suffer political oppression,
economic exploitation,
and social degradation.
All of them from the same enemy.

Mandela: It is useless and point futile for us to continue talking peace and non-violence
against a government whose reply is only savage attacks on an unarmed and defenseless people.

I am minded of young David, the shepherd boy.
Who stood up before the great warrior of the Philistines.
Young David having all the courage!

There's got to be somebody
somewhere that cares.
Young David took that one small stone
and the faith of his God
and slay the giant Goliath!
Cry out!

the more you sense that something is not quite right.
[Alison Weir Journalist & founder of "If Americans Knew"]
The images and the narration are out of sync,
a little like a foreign film that has been awkwardly dubbed.
Damaged homes and roads destroyed and only skeletal remains of cars
even food and medicine are ever scarce.
As you look into it for yourself, you begin to suspect that there is something extremely odd going on.
The more you look into it, the more you begin to feel it is not just odd, it is deeply disturbing.
