I sat still and watched every single minute of this film. Why do capitalist systems get away with these kinds of atrocities?

And thanks for taking the time to watch it.

I know, it is astounding how after everything that's happened it's still going on.

... watching the "Night Will Fall" documentary on HBO, about the concentration camps in Germany. I have no words left.

You have got to wonder, how the so-called, "Civilized World, can still call itself, CIVILIZED, when it has caused so much "Human Suffering"?

History, alone, will judge Humanity!

. . . excellent film. I was struck by the many parallels to the U.S.'s treatment of both native Americans and African Americans, as well as to South Africa under apartheid.
