It will stay the same as it is and as taken from jhon pilger home page FYI

Cast your mind back and you would know Jhon made a lot of documentaries all shown on prime time TV so do chuckel if you ever see this one in the land of the free.

How is this new?

Please provide a link if it was shown on UK TV because i didn't hear about it and i said it's banned in the USA, not the UK anyway

This post was not posted in breaking news so i don't get your point

The only ones likly to play this on british TV is Russia Today or PressTV and if the trend for people watching RT continues in the UK then the BBC will be pushed out from number one place and it's no accident that the sky network gives RT a weak singnal from the satalite system.

John Pilger's new film 'The War You Don't See' is released online for the first time. You can watch the film online (worldwide excluding Australia)


'The War You Don't See' premiered at the Barbican in London on Tuesday 7 December 2010 and on British television on Tuesday 14 December 2010. It is also available to buy on DVD in the UK and in Australia.

ALSO......


This is from your OP... where YOU YOURSELF say that it has been shown on UK TV??
(Although you actually just copied and pasted that and tried to claim it as your own words)


And... you also say that this film is new, and has just been released for the first time online...

This is what I take issue with..... not only your sensationalist headline, but also the fact that you're saying that this is some kind of world first, that this documentary is new and that it has just been released online.

You should try researching mate, even if you just copied and pasted all of this info...... you should at least verify it.... right?

I'm watching this and i wonder - Were is the Iraq military force we are supposed to be fighting? You can't see them in most of the pictures.

The truth is you don't get the upper hand in war by going to a big field with the enemy on one side, you on the other and fighting it out far away from the civilian population. That Only happens in the movies. No, we have to invade cities of civilians. The civilians become The Enemy so it's open season on anything not wearing army green.

Those grunts didn't fight for our freedom, they became murderers of civilian woman and children because That's what hurt the Iraqi forces. If they had half a clue what fighting for our freedom was about they would have disobeyed those orders of war crimes.

It's about time we start losing wars. That's what we need sad to say, Kill all our military boys enough to the point that our government wakes up and realizes it's ways of making war are wrong. That doesn't make me a traitor, it makes me a patriot because it can fix whats wrong with our evil corrupt unconstitutional military..

Watch some brainwashed ( they call it training) army grunt is going to get in my face and tell me how wrong I am and how what he does is protect my freedoms. Here's a tips folks.. desert and save yourselves before it's too late for you. Boys, DONT join the military ! It's The Worst thing you can do with you life !! They will use you to kill innocents and then leave you in the dust as they have millions of Vets before you.

Speak to me of freedom.. you gotta have some nerve.

War is for Defense ONLY when your corner of the world is Directly threatened. Anything more than this begets evil and corruption to take innocent human lives. You have a right as a country to defend yourself ON YOU OWN SOIL OR ON NEUTRAL GROUND OUTSIDE YOUR BORDERS , not go attack another country for what you feel might happen.

The U.S, Military is Evil and should be eradicated in it's present form.

wow...banned is it? wow.

i found it before i even finished your post.

for sale in the USA. seems i could get this banned title overnighted to me. ready for viewing in the morning. or, if i was impatient, there are a couple of torrent sites that have it by the handfuls.

just sayin,

So, Isnt this what the "Bad" ET wants?. Humans to wipe themselves out, so they can take over our beautiful Mother Earth. Humans Killing and hating each other, till no-one is left?
Wake Up Humans, We are all the children of Mother Earth.
DO we want to give Mother to another, more civil and intelligent alien race?

Stop polluting, Stop overpopulating, and start living in harmony with the Universe.

I love you guys......

We're missing some key information here. Why was it banned? And who the hell is the Lannan Foundation and how do they have the power to ban a film? If it was banned then how come it's available now? And if it's so important why does it cost $4.99 to watch?

Sounds to me like a PR stunt to promote the video. The government only bans videos for showing things like (but not limited to) child pornography and murders. Contrary to the conspiracy gurus belief, videos showing controversial political views are not banned.

Don't bother giving examples of videos that were banned because if they were truly banned, you wouldn't see them.
