CBC-TV, for example, did not buy it because PBS already had North American rights. The film also did not fit with its focus on "contemporary political and social issues." Full article here http://www.thestar.com/article/222996

    I watched it - it was good but it was incomplete. But then you should never just watch one documentary or read one article for the 'entire' view on an issue/event anyways. You simply can't cover everything.

    They most certainly didn't cover the actual war in its gruesome visual effects either. Very few shots of the dead (mostly Arab bodies were shown) were included for instance.

    But, that they purposely took out other parts for certain markets... well there is the kicker.

    If there was ever a time for Canadians to become pushy - now is the time - for time is running out on this nation called Canada.
