    Another demonstrations of Western Hypocrisy and Weakness

    This eye-opening documentary reveals how a relatively small and obscure dictatorship skillfully maneuvers to gain undeserved respect and credibility from the western world and how it hold the western politics in its pocket. The "Free World" is turning a blind-eye on corruption, human rights abuse, political assassinations and many other types of injustice and crimes. Once again, western celebrities and politics can be bought with dirty blood money.

    (The recent pressure on China was about human rights? Think again. It's about money.)
