Great research on exposing this fiction flick.

[Mrs.Z]

“... forced to fictionalize things that are real.”

Another “fake but accurate.”

[HockeyPop]

btt

[mewzilla]

So who bankrolled and is distributing this thing?

[Nextrush]

They will continue to exaggerate and sensationalize until they can get something to stick.

[Loud Mime]

Why doesn’t he do a firm on the disgusting crimes by Hollywood stars?

[vetsvette]

It’s the seriousness of the charge, not the nature of the evidence that really matters to these folks.

Of course, the defendant might have a different take on that priority.

[weegee]

“these horrible things things that are happening, this horrible war that I am financing as..."

...a member of the ticket buying public. Okay, which studio is it so we can boycott all of their current product (in theatrical release and DVD sales). Have to starve the Beast in order to see them behave since our Congress cannot be counted on to prosecute traitors anymore.

No different between this and what Axis Sally or Lord Haw Haw did. Is Brian shooting for the Leni Riefenstahl Memorial Award at next year's Oscars?

Company credits for Redacted (2007)

Great piece, and great commentary, Peej.

BTW, there's also a Haditha propaganda movie making the film festival rounds.

[13Sisters76]

Another jerk from the Oliver Stone School of Historical Filmmaking.

[Rush4U]

he conveniently omitted the part where the Military prosecuted those involved.

[OCCASparky]

So who bankrolled and is distributing this thing?

Mark Cuban is one of the producers--yeah, THAT Mark Cuban.

[Carbonado]

More disinformation from the filthy Libs of Hollywood. All they are really interested in is proving (even if that “proof” has to be invented) that a particular situation/circumstance is evil. but their interest is always limited to those situation/circumstances where the USA is involved. It’s a very selective outrage that ignores any horrors other than those they believe can be blamed on the USA.

Where is the movie about the horrors of the Is-Lameic murderers of Iran?
Where is the movie about the horrors of the old Soviet Union? (Still waiting on that 18 years after the fall of the Soviet empire)
Where is the movie illustrating the incarceration, torture and beheadings of Christians in Is-Lameic countries?
Where is the movie about the feckless, utterly useless UN and Rwanda?

This is the real war.

If there's any justice in this world, it will be Hollywood that goes up in smoke when the first dirty bomb is detonated in our Homeland. But, there is no justice, plus the Muslims realize the Hollywood types are their best allies against the US. The most I can do is be very selective in whose films I see.

[Eddie01]

It’s not a comprehensive documentary, it is one of a series of spots as part of a much broader DNC funded ad campaign.

[LibLieSlayer]

Cuban is a leftist scumbag... and he employs dan rather!

LLS

"Have to starve the Beast in order to see them behave since our Congress cannot be counted on to prosecute traitors anymore."

Exactly!

[lormand]

Cuban is also on the 911 conspiracy tin-foiled hat tour.

The reason why the Dallas Mavericks dropped from the playoffs so fast last season was because of GW & Karl Rove.
