Quote

A government that habitually ignored expert advice, habitually pressed its interests abroad in ways that ignored manifest needs and priorities in the wider human and non-human environment, habitually repressed criticism or manipulated public media ? such a regime would, to say the least, jeopardise its claim to obedience because it was refusing attention. Its policies and its rhetoric would not be designed to secure for its citizens an appropriate position in the world, a position that allowed the best kind of freedom because it did not deceive or encourage deception about the way the world is. It would be concerned finally about control and no more; and so would be a threat to its citizens and others.

-- Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury

"Exposed: The Carlyle Group" [video]  Popular
Description: Note: The first one minute forty seven seconds of this program is in broadcast in Dutch, The remainder is in English; translation of the first one minute forty seven seconds of this program: "The war in Iraq is over. The rubble is still smoking while the first dozers are already entering the country. After the coalition forces destroyed Baghdad it is now primarily American companies who are to rebuild Iraq. An interesting point is that these companies usually have people on the payroll who have been politicians. Is this a conflict of interests or a new (global) way of doing business? One of the corporations that work this way is the Carlyle Group. On their payroll are people like: George Bush (Sr.), James Baker III, and old premier John Major. The Carlyle Group is a private investment bank which doesn't come to the public's attention very often; but it is one of the biggest American (ed: USA) investors of the defense industry, telecom, property and financial services. What is the Carlyle Group? Who are the people behind the name? And how much power does Carlyle have?" 48:53

Pilger: "Palestine is Still the Issue" [video]  Popular
Description: "Twenty-five years ago, I made a film called 'Palestine Is Still The Issue.' It was about a nation of people - the Palestinians - forced off their land and later subjected to a military occupation by Israel. An occupation condemned by the United Nations and almost every country in the world, including Britain. But Israel is backed by a very powerful friend, the United States. So in 25 years, if we're to speak of the great injustice here, nothing has changed. What has changed is that the Palestinians have fought back."
