Any1 watched this

Hi everyone

Just watched a documentary/movie with the girlfriend.

Name was: Road to Guantanamo

Was wondering if this movie was banned in the USA and/or UK. Just wondering. It was a prison camp and depicts the Americans abusing innocent pakistanis' whom get mistaken for terrorists.

I read a news article abou this particular war camp.

Sorry if there was a post about this before but South Africa is abit delayed with the movies.

Thanks.

Does the name "Robert Mugabwe" mean anything to you?

I guess you don't have to go to Cuba for a holiday camp

Yes, if you want it put bluntly, there are a lot of unconvicted "war criminals" around............. the USA, most certainly Israel........... and lots of others.

abusing innocent pakistanis' whom get mistaken for terrorists.

Im sure its a easy mistake when these guys are in a crowd screaming Anti-Semitism and Anti-Americanism. Just think, years ago... people got alot of heat (if not quietly snuffed out someplace) for attending labor rallies.

If you claimed to be a communist even if you've never hurt another human being, you'd still be an enemy to the united states and much of the world. Who's to say that these people... if not Muslims in general can't have equal opportunity in this regard?

Are you kidding? I'd be willing to guess that it was made here.
People from totalitarian countries like your close northern neighbor
can be excused when they make the honest mistake of thinking that
movies routinely get "banned" in the US, but you should know better.
Even kiddie porn doesn't get banned, unless the state can prove that
actual kiddies were tortured in the making of the film.

We are awash in anti-american propaganda. It sells lots of popcorn.
People just ignore it because it is usually just backgroung noise.
Try publishing something controversial in your country, you may get
an education in civics.

Nihil: in south africa here, we say that you should rob mugabwe before he robs you. Yes he is a huge problem this side. The influx of refugees/illegals from Zim became a problem long time ago. Our president just announced that he cannot and will not stop them from comming over.

Keep the thoughts comming from the movie, interesting to hear what everyone else thinks.

Thanks for the replies.

Ain't never heard of no Cecil Zimbabwe man....................

"Innocent Pakistanis"................. ???????????????????

Only the dead are innocent........... or, at least you know that they won't reoffend

Come to England mate, we don't p1$$ about............ we shoot Brasilian electricians in the street......... little boogers might start playing football?



Errrrrrrrrrrr.............. for a number of years I was "statutory whiteman" for a local Pakistani cricket team

Shouldn't that read "token whiteman" as opposed to statutory...

Shouldn't that read "token whiteman" as opposed to statutory

Yeah, that's how it was, until the leaders of my country decided to become "politically correct"

Also, the lads used it to wind up Indian teams we played against The Brit teams were the best............. I had to drink beer for my entire side

Strange how racial prejudice and sport don't seem to get along?

Funny you mention that one. I'd just downloaded it in the last week
or two. Unfortunately it was in French with no subtitles. I doubt it's
banned in the US. Such shows are of dubious popularity though. Like
Adam Curtis' BBC special, The Power Of Nightmares. That's an
outstanding program that will probably never be shown because of the
support-our-troops political correctness. Yanks of all persuasions, liberal
and conservative, are altogether irrational about the war on terrorism.

Kool-Aid anyone?

Another good one is Obsession. Look it up sometime.
