Pearl Harbor, Iraq and Iran... how we get fooled into war.
Our response to Ken Burn's new WWII series: "Day of Infamy" Much has been made of Ken Burns going around interviewing WWII veterans. It is a good idea, because after all, these old timers are dying off at the rate of thousands every month. But the PBS series missed a few important points and so Indymedia has to pick up the slack, as usual. In this interview with a WWII Disabled American Veteran, we find out that the main Pearl Harbor newspaper published a banner headline on the top of the front page of the paper a week before the so-called "sneak attack" that read "Japanese may strike over weekend!" As O'Kelly McClusky holds up a copy of the newspaper for the camera, he tells how the US intentionally sacrificed their old, obsolete ships, along with 3,000 sailors, to change public opinion about getting into the war with Japan, and how he went from gung-ho to disillusioned. This piece was originally produced as a critique of the Hollywood movie "Pearl Harbor," and uses fair use footage to review that film. As December 7th nears, and with all the attention generated by the Ken Burns series, it only seemed right to pull our piece out of the archives and run it again. Hey, Ken Burns, we did it first, and we told people something they might not know. Additionally, with all the fear of another "false flag" incident to spur our nation into war with Iran, it seems quite appropriate to study exactly how we got into past wars.
