Amerikas Kriege – Korea – Vietnam – Irak – Afghanistan
Amerikas Kriege – Von Vietnam nach Afghanistan
Spiegel TV Doku
Kein Land dieser Welt schlägt so viele Schlachten wie die USA. Seit dem Zweiten Weltkrieg gab es nicht ein einziges Jahrzehnt ohne Krieg. In Korea, Vietnam, im Irak oder in Afghanistan kämpfte die Supermacht für Demokratie, Menschenrechte und natürlich immer auf für die eigenen Interessen:
gegen den Kommunismus, für Öl oder um Macht. Nach dem kalten Krieg war die gewaltige Militärmaschinerie Amerikas als einzige in der Lage, weltweit einzugreifen. Und das tat sie oft, immer in fernen Ländern. Mit dem Mythos der Unangreifbarkeit daheim war es erst am 11. September 2001 vorbei, als die Attacken auf das World Trade Center die USA unvorbereitet trafen. Seitdem kämpfen die Amerikaner gegen einen Feind, den sie mit Panzern und Raketen allein nicht besiegen können – den Terror.
Die Spiegel-TV Autorinnen Nanje Teuscher und Amrei Topcu geben einen Überblick über die vergangenen 65 Jahre amerikanischer Kriegsgeschichte und hinterfragen die Gründe für die Marschbefehle.

PROPAGANDA | FULL ENGLISH VERSION (2012)
Here is the formal statement I gave to Federal Police on 16 June 2012:
On a trip to visit family in Seoul in April, I was approached by a man and a woman who claimed to be North Korean defectors. They presented me with a DVD that recently came into their possession and asked me to translate it. They also asked me to post the completed film on the Internet so that it could reach a worldwide audience. I believed what I was told and an agreement was made to protect their identities (and mine).
Despite my concerns about what I was viewing when I returned home, I proceeded to translate and post the film on You Tube because of the film’s extraordinary content. I have now made public my belief that this film was never intended for a domestic audience in the DPRK. Instead, I believe that these people, who presented themselves as ‚defectors‘ specifically targeted me because of my reputation as a translator and interpreter.
Furthermore, I now believe these people work for the DPRK. The fact that I have continued to translate and post the film in spite of this belief does not make me complicit in their intention to spread their ideology. I chose to keep posting this film because – regardless of who made it – I believe people should see it because of the issues it raises and I stand by my right to post it for people to share and discuss freely with each other.

I have translated this film, laid in the English voice over and subtitles, and on legal advice have blurred the identity of the presenter and/or blacked out certain elements.
