"America at a Crossroads: Gangs of Iraq" on PBS Now!

America at a Crossroads is a major public television event premiering on PBS in April 2007 that explores the challenges confronting the post-9/11 world — including the war on terrorism; the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan; the experience of American troops serving abroad; the struggle for balance within the Muslim world; and global perspectives on America’s role overseas.

Aimed at creating a national dialogue surrounding the crucial issues explored in the series, an extensive media and outreach campaign in more than 25 communities accompanies the series. The campaign features screening events with the filmmakers and their subjects in discussions with United States military personnel, leading policy experts, leaders of the Islamic community, scholars from across the country as well as members of the public. Integrated Web and educational initiatives further extend the campaign.

Tuesday, April 17:

GANGS OF IRAQ, 9:00 - 10:00 p.m.

THE CASE FOR WAR: IN DEFENSE OF FREEDOM, 10:00 - 11:00 p.m.

:kick:

I sure hope that PBS has plans to do a replay, because all the cable news seems to be 24/7 VT.

see this.

and have been since sunday night. i am so pissed off. i hate this admin and the people who support these assholes.

...to try to defend his views.

lie lies lies lies

is and always has been a Democrat?????? He has signed letters to PNAC! check the signers of this letter to Bill Clinton back in 1998 urging him to attack Iraq.

This part is making me ill.

Isn't there any way to get him to stop saying crap like that?:shrug:

I'm sickened & saddened when someone like Perle calls himself a "lifelong" Democrat.

...through this part.

Pardon my French, but he's such a Lying piece of shit.

Do you think he really believes the crap he says? Can anyone REALLY be this stupid?:banghead:

When I agree with Pat Buchanan, it's time for a drink....:puke:

I wish this was live so I could go kick his ass.

Osama bin Laden is NOT hiding, he's DEAD!

He's bin Dead since December 2001!

Oh! Now he's blaming his Hollywood upbringing!

an entire hour to spew his crap. I certainly hope that they'll provide some balance before the series ends.

...disagreeing with him, but he just is NOT listening to any of them!

And his talking about how GREAT things are in Kazakhstan! Wtf? :wtf:

What drug is this guy on?:banghead:

very well reasoned arguments. Then his argument consists of "I don't agree".

With few exceptions, they are disagreeing with him and with the Bush administration's WOT. Of course, he thinks they are wrong, but his arguments are very thin.

...except for him! Richard Pearl is the only one who REALLY knows what really going on.:banghead:

;)

It's hard to get East Coasters to remember there are several time zones!

I haven't a clue what time that would be for Arizona.

:blush: I just tonight realized that I missed the first 3 hours of this.

you should watch it or try to record it for later viewing. This has been an eye-opening series. I'm surely going to watch the rest of it too.

I don't know what's going on here. I have 2 PBS (and NPR) stations here on my Cable system:

Georgia Public Broadcasting (Channel 8 on the cable)

And

Atlanta Public Broadcasting (Broadcast on Channel 30 and Ch 16 on the cable)

And it used to be that they showed FRONTLINE at the same time on Tuesday, but now APB is showing FRONTLINE delayed until Sunday at 9:00pm, and they didn't even put this series of programs on the schedule, as far as I can see.

Maybe they will replay the series next week, but I just don't know.

I wonder if this has something to do with some changes they are making at APB. They just started broadcasting 2 new HD Radio channels along with the regular FM station, which made it so that I can hear ALL of the news programs that the regular station doesn't carry, playing Classical music instead. I can now stream via computer HD 2 & 3, and if I get a new HD Radio, I can get them off the air too.

I never thought I would say this, but I'm thinking about getting an HD Radio!:crazy:

;)

It's a 'series', seriously. :rofl: ( I love saying 'seriously')

This series of 11 independently produced documentaries will premiere on Sunday, April 15
and will run nightly through Friday, April 20, 9:00–11:00pm (ET).

Each night, series host Robert MacNeil will provide context to the compelling stories
and provocative points of view to be shown throughout the week.

Additional films will air as specials following the premiere.

PS. Perle is on Charlie Rose right now. :puke:

Look at his eyes, dark as depths of hell. Now he's lying and saying he had nothing to do with Iraq.

Virginia Tech University...

They're discussing the professor who was killed but saved kids lives.

I think Darth Perle will be on the last half hour. Just a guess.

Sounds like the Wednesday shows will be less difficult to watch for us on the left, but I can almost hear the heads of those on the right exploding right now. :evilgrin:
