This documentary was obviously not made merely to bring forth factual information to the spectator. No this documentary looked more like a John Grierson film from the 30’s and 40’s than a documentary that looked at opposing arguments on terrorism. It is particularly interesting how the British army and air force were glorified within the film. Now all I can ask is…who sponsored this film? Because no self respecting documentary film-maker wouldn’t want there name credited for this production. I feel it is irresponsible to make productions such as these and not give enough critical information on such subjects as there are many passive spectators who will believe your representation of terrorist and international involvement is the whole view.
I enjoy watching documentaries on history. I however do not like to be force fed drivel that is made in a propagandistic manner in the attempt to make me see the perspective that is exceptionable to the foreign policy of British politics to date.
