give the nature and origin of the 11 filmakers it be not surprising that this film be at best neutral in it stance towards america . probably the most anti segment come from ken loach who be definitely not tow the british new labour party line . although those event of a year ago be shock and painful to most american and most spectator who saw them unfold live through cnn etc . the majority of the writer and director choose to show that tragedy be not an american monopoly . should anybody be surprise that these 3000 death be give the same weight elsewhere a the west give to thousand tutsi and tamil and bosnian and chilean and kurdish ( need we go on ) victim . if this be a wake up call for the state then it be equally tragic that in the subsequent 12 month the israel or palestine impasse be far from a solution while george bush jnr . would rather wreak revenge than make the world a safe place . i think many of the contributor wonder where the idealism of the found father go and and why america orignally build a a bastion of freedom and justice and tolerance now see it self interest paramount while the third world wonder where the next drink and meal or bullet be come from .
