* “An un-apologetic criticism of US foreign policy and The Project for the New American Century. Animation follows the dialogue, giving visual poignancy and weight to Barry’s words. The propoganda-esque style of the motion graphics further re-inforces the message. Is this a conspiracy theory? Far from it. “

Be warned: highly political!
