Explosive documentary that details the differences between how the US media report on the Middle East, and how the rest of the world reports from the region.

There is oil in that part of the world, which the US needs to keep in control of, and keeping Israel as a friendly nation, to its own people, gives the US military-industrial complex great hope of keeping in overall control of the region. The sheer amount of US military bases in that part of the world is evidence of this.
