John Pilger's No Middle Ground in the Middle East - Paying the Price: Killing the Children of Iraq / Palestine is Still the Issue / Breaking the Silence: Truth and Lies in the War on Terror
This collection of three John Pilger documentaries focuses on the troubled Middle East. 'Paying the Price: Killing the Children of Iraq' has Pilger travelling to Iraq, pre-911, with former UN Assistant Secretary-General Denis Halliday who resigned over what he called 'immoral policy' as economic sanctions crippled the country. 'Palestine is Still the Issue' sees Pilger returning to the Occupied Territories, following up his 1974 documentary, only to find little has changed. 'Breaking the Silence: Truth and Lies in the War on Terror' looks at President Bush's 'liberation' of Afghanistan and Iraq, interviewing leading administration officials. Nominated for a BAFTA.
