2000, NR, 64 min. Directed by Audrey Brohy, Gerard Ungerman. Narrated by John Hurt.

REVIEWED By Marjorie Baumgarten, Tue., May 28, 2002

This video exposé looks at the reasons for the Gulf War and the embargo against Iraq that still persists. The documentary uses material never before seen on television, and interviews such prominent figures as General Norman Schwarzkopf, former Attorney General Ramsey Clark, and former UN Iraq Program Director Dennis Halliday, among others. A Q&A with Rahul Mahajan, Green Party candidate for Texas governor and author, will follow the screening.
