Superpower (Jawdropping exposure of US strategies) by Barbara Anne Steegmuller

The accidental documentary, Superpower, won the overall festival award, The Director's Selection Award, in the Twin Cities Arts Festival in Kernersville, North Carolina in 2008, as well as a string of other awards.

This documentary just screened on our tv and I watched it with my eyes nearly popping out at the exposure of what is really going on behind the vailed curtain of American politics and military, the intent to establish itself as the superpower in a New World Order.

It also exposes the goal of convincing the American population to give up their freedom in exchange for 'security'. (Remeber the Benjamin Franklin quote: "Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.")
Well, this outstanding documentary explains how the US is doing exactly that: convincing people to give up their freedom in order to create a military state under the guise of providing you with security.

That this was screened, is an action of exremely high risk on the part of the filmmakers and how this happened, God only knows. (In my view, litereally, because it is only through blessings like these that we get glimpses into our aplorable state of reality.)

I very strongly commend every American to watch this movie. Unfortunately no link exsists to the full movie, but it is on sale at the link www.superpowerthemovie.com...

I have found a 3 part extract from the movie:

I hereby quote from the site www.superpowerthemovie.com... the synopsis:

Superpower is a well-executed and comprehensive film that asks tough questions and goes behind the scenes of America’s national security apparatus and military actions. Far from a conspiracy film about the dangers of government secrets and regime change, this well-balanced film straddles the philosophical divide and allows viewers to understand the US quest for global dominance through economic and military strategy that is exposed through review of historical events, personal interviews, and analysis of US foreign policy.

The heart of Superpower lies in the analysis produced from a re-examination of history through a series of interviews with historians, documentarians, and academians such as Bill Blum, Chalmers Johnson, Michael Chossudovsky, and Noam Chomsky, and others with expertise in this subject such as the Executive Producer of The Unit, Command Sergeant (Ret.) Eric Haney; former Chief Economist for the US Department of Labor, Morgan Reynolds; three-time Noble Peace Prize nominee, Kathy Kelly; and Lt. Col. (Ret) Karen Kwiatkowski. Examining key moments in America's history elicits a more consistent and plausible set of motives for US foreign policy actions guided by global expansion and military dominance, rather than the hyperbolic calls for democracy and totalitarian regime change that we have become so accustomed to hearing.

Should citizens trust that their government will keep them safe, a government that keeps secrets, and lies, in the name of national security? Does the simple act of withholding information lead to a world of eroding civil liberties and corruption? Superpower presents a view of US foreign policy, which lies in stark contrast to that depicted by corporate media, popular pundits, and US heads of state. With the fall of the Soviet Union, the US has emerged as the preeminent superpower of the world. Superpower illustrates how the United States has chosen to leverage that position to pursue a grand strategy which will ensure itself unilateral world domination through absolute economic and military superiority. It shows a consistent pattern of government deception.

The United States emerged from World War II with its industrial base still intact and the only nation with the atomic bomb. It was without question the most powerful country on earth. What was done with this unprecedented power, the effects it's had on our Republic and the rest of the world is the story of Superpower.

Sink your teeth into that!

What is always forgotten is that those charged with providing the "security" (police, military, etc) need to be just as fooled as the "people."

Perhaps even more so, as they would need their convictions to override their sense of integrity. In the full movie they explain how they justify military actions that were based on fals flags and then convince the public that this very small compromise of legality is justified by the 'positive' intention. Meanwhile, at the back of the ranch, even their intentions are sinister.

The Truth is now allowed to be seen because we have gone pass the point of no return(or have we) and this flick is just one of the many examples of TPTB rubbing it in our faces. Your jaw drops, they get erections. You are shocked TPTB have accomplished taking Life away, TPTB are shocked you let them. You, me and TPTB are all amazed at what has transpired the last 200 years. Imagine what the next 200 will be like.

And consider that their entire livelihood is being provided by the overlords. It is an easy task to command those who are receiving their gold from you.

I am handicapped by a 2g Internet cnxn and genetic laziness. So, guilty as charged.

What really got my attention while watching the full movie on tv this morning, is how they explain the 9/11 story as an inside job.
Also, one of the ladies that spoke extensively during her interview said that has already been in jail over 60 times for standing up and protesting against these very dangerous people.

About the film maker. Quoted from their site:

Meet the Filmmaker

Who inspired you?
My father, Lt. Col. Richard Charles Steegmuller, was a strong Republican. He was party-line all the way. We constantly debated issues, and rarely agreed. But, I feel, to be informed one must truly consider opposing views and be willing to examine one's own position. He was my inspiration to seek truth and never settle for what is comfortable or mainstream.

What was the inspiration for your film?
While a student at Guilford College, I had been elected as President of the College Young Democrats and Vice-President of the State College Young Democrats, and was very politically active, especially in opposing the Vietnam War. In 1970, I studied in Vienna, Austria, for my junior year abroad, which I selected because of the recent invasion of Prague, Czechoslovakia, by the USSR. During my time abroad, I met David Mark Berger, who was one of the athletes later murdered at the 1972 Munich Olympics (and to whom I dedicated this film). However, my main inspiration came after the 9/11 attacks, when the $10 million donated for relief efforts was returned to HRH Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud because he called for U.S. citizens to re-examine U.S. foreign policy, which he felt gave us a bad image due to our actions historically, especially in the Middle East. I set out to prove him wrong. The result was Superpower.

What is it about filmmaking that excites you?
I am a screenwriter and had not intended to produce a documentary. I was working on my masters at the time of my research, and incorporated my findings into what became my documentary on U.S. foreign policy. I enjoy researching historical information as the basis of my screenplays, even if they are about contemporary issues or character studies. I find it exciting to see the world a new way and arm myself with the local histories that help my stories evolve.

There is no shock value to any truth anymore, at least not for me. Hopefully OP you can help others wake up, but I knew after 9 11 we were being bamboozled. All the money , OUR TAXES, spent on the 4 branches of the US military and various alphabet agencies that were supposed to foresee and prevent ANY SUCH ATTACK from happening. W...T...F? No, not bashing you OP or this thread. I am just ready to see a thread that reports retribution and vendication. Spread the word and help make it happen. Thanks OP for even more awareness. Peace.
