Well, I agree with Frozen's posts and also with some parts of Makg ones. This made me think of a recent theme. Sorry if it's a bit out of topic, but I'll mention it anyway: during this period in Venice, Italy, there's a movie Festival and they presented also a movie made by several different authors from many countries about Sept. 11. The movie is divided into 11 episodes and well, only one of them is talks about the towers disasters. The other episodes are about the point of view of people from Afghanistan (not terrorists, but normal people) and some others about other serious facts happened on Sept. 11, but in other countries (for example South America) and not only in year 2001. Well, they said the movie was obscene because it was anti-american. Only because in it directors tried to analyze the point of view of non-american people. It was said that it would have been better to not show that movie, never. Ok, I repeat, this was kinda off topic, but explanatory of a way of not admitting anything in contrast with some really bad and oppressive propaganda. I do think that sometimes, as artist said, propaganda and a one-sided view of reality is the worst thing when you decide to talk about such topics as war and violence, and I respect US and I'm sure against the ones who caused sufferings to many innocent people, but I also admit sometimes they suffer from this one-sided way of thinking.
