Robert Fisk - Beirut To Bosnia (1/3)

Another piece of classic journalism from Robert Fisk of the Independent.
It’s from 1993, and still very important historical record.
This is about the hellish decades of war which Muslim nations have been subjected to. Definitely a valuable remedy from the decades of American and British propaganda… well, not so much propaganda, let’s say ’selective information’.
This series was apparently banned from the channel who produced it (Discovery - Explore your World - but only the parts of it we want you to see). Probably was a little too truthful. Shame because instead of getting the exposure it ought to, to the ignorant and the stupid - it is known by a select few, who know generally what’s going on regarding political agenda in this brave new world.
It is scattered around the web having mentions on the BFI website, various blogs and message boards, and is widely shared via bittorent - I’d recommend torrenting and seeding it along with other films on this site.
Alternatively, you can see parts 2 and 3 on Google video.
