City of Ghosts
The folks at Amazon Studios and IFC Films asked me to tell you about their documentary “City of Ghosts” which is going to be released on July 7th in New York City, expanding the release on July 14th.
Captivating in its immediacy, City of Ghosts follows the journey of “Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently” – a handful of anonymous activists who banded together after their homeland was taken over by ISIS in 2014. With astonishing, deeply personal access, this is the story of a brave group of citizen journalists as they face the realities of life undercover, on the run, and in exile, risking their lives to stand up against one of the greatest evils in the world today.

Seems the middle east has turned out to be a lucrative hollywood movie setting. War sells.
Always has. Big money involved, and not just hollywierd.
War sells, but who’s buying.

I’ll buy that for a dollar.
Let’s hope that this scourge will go the way of all tyrannies and that Iraq can find peace through democracy. It sure as f*** didn’t take last g**d**n time.
Sadly, Liberty will only flourish where people love Liberty more then life itself.
And -that- is a red-letter warning. To -us-.
Amen. Knowing that I have friends of the same mindset is about the only thing that lets me sleep well at night.
Happy Independence Day to you and yours.
