Below is a preview of
John Pilger's
2007 documentary
THE WAR ON DEMOCRACY. In it Pilger explores the historic and current relationship of Washington with countries such as Venezuela, Bolivia and Chile. Pilger claims that the film, "...tells a universal story... analyzing and revealing, through vivid testimony,
the story of great power behind its venerable myths. It allows us to understand the true nature of the so-called 'war on terror'. According to Pilger, the film’s message is that the greed and power of empire is not invincible and that people power is always the "seed beneath the snow".
Pilger interviews several
ex-CIA agents who purportedly took part in
secret campaigns against democratic countries and who he claims are profiting from the war in Iraq. He investigates the School of the Americas in the U.S. state of Georgia, where General Pinochet’s
torture squads were reportedly trained along with tyrants and death-squad leaders in Haiti, El Salvador, Brazil and Argentina.
