No End In Sight - Charles Ferguson.

News is a bustling industry. Its success depends on the commercial relationship between truthfulness and popular taste. As Paul Simon observed many years ago
“I don’t believe what I read in the papers – they’re just out to capture my dime.’
Finding truthful sources of news is a skill of tremendous complexity requiring considerable investment in time and thoughtfulness. It’s the same with developing a capacity for interpreting news. At times of War such as these where British and American servicemen are dying in numbers, any news of the War is most likely to have been processed to suit the agenda of the governments involved.

And so what a pleasure it was to watch the work of Charles Ferguson. The acclaimed movie, ‘No end in sight’. I watched this movie because of its 8.6 ranking on IMDB. At the end of the movie, my first question was ‘Who paid for this’.

Charles Ferguson is a remarkable fellow. Amongst his many academic achievements lies the story of Vermeer technologies. A Software company he founded in 1994 and sold in 1996 for $133 Million. Unlike the example of so many of those suddenly possessed of a quick fortune, Charles Ferguson saw fit to finance a movie to provide an honest and reliable source of news on a matter that concerns us all, but especially those paying taxes to the American regime who have brought their Country into such spectacular disrepute.

I never understood the achievements of Messrs Rumsfeldt, Cheney, Wolfowitz and Bush with such clarity before watching this movie. Because the motivation in the delivery of this program is not commercial, but quite clearly based on an intelligent and informed desire to report objectively on matters of importance, the outcome is inspiring. The credibility of the author and his production skills in pacing the information evenly by clever choices of commentary and edits serves as an important reminder that we are living in the shadow of the worst atrocity by government office since Adolf saw fit to turn his fabulous nation against the Russians.

The American and British attacks on Iraq that have destroyed not only the entire cultural base of this ancient civilization, in the looting and burning of the museums and libraries containing artifacts and documents going back 7,000 years, but also directly causing what will eventually be shown as a death toll in the Millions.

There is little doubt that the war on Iraq will go down as the highest death count of any war since WW2. With every passing day hundreds of Iraqi’s, women, children, young and old are dying. Many there believe these are the lucky ones, spared from a life that is worse than death.

Through the intellectual and material benevolence of Charles Ferguson, you can inform yourself more reliably on the subject by watching NO END IN SIGHT.
