DIRTY AND THEN JUST NICE

DIRTY FIRST
    Jeremy Scahill is a savvy journalist who has survived war and produced major sets of information.  His latest, Dirty Wars is gripping, troubling and one of those pieces all Americans should see, but wont.
    It's a new day in world politics and the exercise of military might. Answers are not easy, solutions are complicated, but the operation of JSOC is something Americans need to come face to face with.
    The documentary draws you in from the first scene.  Scahill has a point of view, but when he gets information from the inside, to validate and expand what his reporting in Afghanistan, Yemen, Pakistan and elsewhere has shown, you realize this is not your daddy's warfare anymore, nor of course is the nature of the enemy. If you care a whit about the future of this nation and the exercise of power, you need to see this film.  Here's a trailer.
Now, here's a little antidote to help you chill.
NATURE IN BALANCE




See you down the trail.
