IT sounds like he is still in debt for the film. It sounds like be believed in what he was doing- not because of Iraq, but because of his personal beliefs. He knew a heck of a lot more about the war against Iraq and why it was waged, then O'Reilly did. O'Reilly comes off as hopelessly ignorant- I mean NOT understanding why we went to war? Because the boundaries of Kuwait were violated? Now neither of those gentlemen mention the fact that those boundaries have always been in dispute, nor do they mention some of the sneaky things Kuwait was doing with its drilling that had pissed Iraq off.

The thing about the propaganda film? That is like your statement that RD threatened to blow up anything. It simply doesn't exist, except as your inference. It might BE one, but your inference does not make it so. I understand why you might make that inference. But that still doesn't make it so.

Very interesting link though. Thanks for posting it.

That badly misrepresents the transcript.

He accepted $400,000 from an American citizen to produce a film documenting the inspection process.

It souinds from the transcript as as though Ameircans can't see the film. I wonder why not. Obviously he wants people to. I myself would be interested in seeing the film to judge for myself whether it is propaganda or information.

Does anybody know what the title of the film was and where it has been shown and where it can be seen?
