OFFICIAL SECRETS

I learned of this film from Tony Gosling yesterday when I listened to Not the BCFM Politics Show yesterday morning.

I couldn't fnd it in local HMV, but local CEX had a pristine copy for £3.

Watched it twice last night.

It's about Katharine Gun and her attempt to stop the invasion of Iraq in 2003.

A very, very brave and principled woman who humiliated the British Establishment in court but couldn't stop the juggernaut of war on Iraq, which was the first in a series of wars revealed by General Wesley Clark. 

The final war in that series is supposed to be on Iran.

Obama baulked.

Trump tried.

Biden is biding his time.
