10/25/2011 Watch this. Has a good point. We are all citizens of earth. See more 07/14/2011 You have two ears and one mouth you should listen more than you speak See more 01/29/2011 A lot of what was said in this movie irritated me to no end. Most of the people interviewed are barflies and people living on the streets or working behind some sandwich shop, who are completely ignorant about world affairs and parrot back whatever the state media or ruling party in their own country has manipulated them into believing. Granted, I think most of the footage was taken before General Petraeus and President Obama changed the scenery in a major way, but even so, the U.S. invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan at that point was completely misunderstood and misconstrued. There is a huge difference between empire-building and regime change, and everyone assumed that we had undertaken the former. The latter is a humanitarian crusade and a thankless burden. See more 11/15/2010 A really great documentary. I must say I shed a tear at the end. Please open your heart and mind to other cultures and countries. See more 01/03/2010 Ohh America. Suuuper interesting. See more 11/07/2009 Excellent documentary about looking at views toward the U.S. by the world in an honest, no holds-barred manner. Some cinematography issues, but great film.
