If you are unfamiliar with the political thriller "Z" you can read about it

Admittedly there have not been blatent (Just a WHOLE lot of "accidents" and clamming up:eyes: )assinations of opponents of Bushco but the icky possibilities remain, but on a larger scale than the military junta in Greece in the late 60's.
One figure in that movie, a prosecuting judge, is like Fitzgerald on steroids. A Leftwing Senator is murdered after a public event by CROC which is a christo-fascist militia of thugs run by the military. This man goes after the right-wing killers and their police and military masters with a robotic destroyer demeanor.
He keeps pressing for the truth and ends up going after the top brass.
Of course he succeeds but a few years later a Junta takes complete control and most of the players in the event are imprisoned or killed.
Oh well I watched it again tonight and it SO reminds me of today even though it was 40 years ago in Greece...
I debated whether or not this is a Lounge thread but honestly I believe that real-life events of four decades ago, or six decades ago, should be powerful reminders of what must (Or should) be done in the present.
EDIT: Crap...This is Jan Michael not Stephanie...Whoops.
