In his video-taped Nobel acceptance speech, Harold Pinter excoriated a 'brutal, scornful and ruthless' United States.

¨The invasion of Iraq was a bandit act, an act of blatant state terrorism, demonstrating absolute contempt for the concept of international law. The invasion was an arbitrary military action inspired by a series of lies upon lies and gross manipulation of the media and therefore of the public; an act intended to consolidate American military and economic control of the Middle East masquerading – as a last resort – all other justifications having failed to justify themselves – as liberation.¨

I read the reveiw of Pinter's speech in the Guardian today. Sounds like a true master of his craft using all of his powers to deliver a message of truth. Would love to see it.

Anyone help?

Wow.

Talk about shock and awe. I can't imagine the looks on the faces in the audience when all that truth hit the floor, with not a mop wringer nearby!

Thanks for the links. I copied that transcript;

It almost sounds as if this man is trying to imply there is some sort of conspiracy about what is being written into the history books.

I always admire a person who values the truth more than any potential fame that might have garnered blowing smoke up everybodies asses.

I give it Two Thumbs Up!
