Video: The Panama Deception

This film from 1992, which won the Oscar for Best Documentary, still gives me the creeps a decade and a half later. It was one of first times someone had the guts to call out the Bushes on their wacky ideas about the world in a truly substantive manner. Getting rid of Manuel Noriega may have been a good thing, but the cost? This movie foreshadowed what would happen during the two Gulf Wars.

By the way, if the narrator sounds familiar, well she was; the late Elizabeth Montgomery, the star of Bewitched.
