From 911Encyclopedia:
In the November 2002 issue of "the Progressive", journalist John Pilger said, that
"The Bush Administration is out of control: "It contains some truly dangerous people. The danger for all of us is not in Baghdad but in Washington... ...The censorship is such on television in the U.S. that films like mine don't stand a chance... The attack on Iraq has been long planned. There just hasn't been an excuse for it."
Pilger interviewed Perle,Richard in the 80s, who was at that time Assistant Secretary of Defense in Reagan's Pentagon: "I interviewed Perle when he was buzzing around the Reagan Administration in the 1980s, and I was struck by how truly fanatical this man was. He was then voicing the views of total war." Pilger expressed, that the former journalist essentials "Impartiality" and "objectivity" now mean the establishment point of view. Pilger writes for the british Mirror since the early 80s. For his reporting, Pilger won twice the highest award in British journalism. In 2002, he released "The New Rulers of the World" (Verso). His political films include "Paying the Price: Killing the Children of Iraq, Death of a Nation: East Timor, The New Rulers of the World, and Palestine Is Still the Issue."
