Dirty Wars

Dirty Wars follows investigative reporter Jeremy Scahill, author of the international bestseller Blackwater, into the hidden world of America's covert... wars, from Afghanistan to Yemen, Somalia, and beyond. Part action film and part detective story, Dirty Wars is a gripping journey into one of the most important and underreported stories of our time. What begins as a report on a deadly U.S. night raid in a remote corner of Afghanistan quickly turns into a global investigation of the secretive and powerful Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC). As Scahill digs deeper into the activities of JSOC, he is pulled into a world of covert operations unknown to the public and carried out across the globe by men who do not exist on paper and will never appear before Congress. In military jargon, JSOC teams "find, fix, and finish" their targets, who are selected through a secret process. No target is off limits for the "kill list," including U.S. citizens. Show More

Details

clandestine operations and targeted killings. The film exposes the hidden agenda and human rights abuses of the U.S. government in its pursuit of counterterrorism.

Dirty Wars sheds light on the disturbing reality of how the U.S. military operates in order to combat terrorism around the world. Through interviews with former JSOC members and eyewitnesses, Scahill uncovers the collateral damage and civilian casualties caused by covert operations. He reveals the dark side of the so-called war on terror and questions the legality and morality of targeted assassinations.

The film also explores the consequences of these operations on the ground, including the rise of extremist groups and the erosion of trust in local populations. Scahill's investigation takes him to Yemen, where he investigates the U.S. drone program and the indiscriminate killing of innocent civilians.

Dirty Wars is a thought-provoking and eye-opening documentary that challenges the mainstream narrative and raises important questions about the use of military force and the secrecy surrounding it. It serves as a wake-up call to viewers, urging them to examine the ethical implications of America's covert wars and to demand transparency and accountability from their government.

Bowling for Columbine 2002

The United States of America is notorious for its astronomical number of people killed by firearms for a developed nation without a civil war. With his signature sense of angry humor, activist filmmaker Michael Moore sets out to explore the roots of this bloodshed. In doing so, he learns that the conventional answers of easy availability of guns, violent national history, violent entertainment and even poverty are inadequate to explain this violence when other cultures share those same factors without the equivalent carnage. In order to arrive at a possible explanation, Michael Moore takes on a deeper examination of America's culture of fear, bigotry and violence in a nation with widespread gun ownership. Furthermore, he seeks to investigate and confront the powerful elite political and corporate interests fanning this culture for their own unscrupulous gain.
