They definitely could have made this much better. For a movie made in 2005, it felt like it was something out of 1985. The music, which was annoyingly and eerily played throughout the movie, sounded like it was out of the 80's. The graphics looked 80's-like. Production was very poor. I have seen some low-budget documentaries, and they were produced much better than Beyond Treason.These things made watching this film very difficult.Sicko, Michael Moore's documentary on the health care system, focusing a lot on the ailments sustained by 9/11 first response rescue workers, was a lot more...entertaining. Its hard to use that word as exposés like documentaries are not meant to be entertainment, but I use more in the sense that the film is made watchable from start to finish, which is not the case with Beyond Treason.I stopped the movie half way through as the material they were presenting just became very repetitive and not presented in any new interesting way.This is not to take away from the information presented. The information is rather accurate and credible. The main focus is the Gulf War as that was a large scale representation of our Government involving our military in a war where we used arms hazardous to both our enemies and our own military. But it was not really presented in an interesting way. It was not aided by the fact that the central points are made by scientists who are rather boring and rather stoic.While the information was definitely credible, there didn't seem like much organization to it. It seemed like it was all over the place, rather feeling like a big mish mash of information thrown at you about how our government covered up the use of toxic substances on our military.Overall, it gets its point across, rather early in the film for that matter, but it was produced very poorly making it very difficult to watch from start to finish.

Well you tell me why so many of you people can't see beyond your nose? I would say that at least 80% of what is said in this movie and many more are trying to tell you how much the governments are not telling as the truth about many things that is going on behind our backs. Just one good example look what Mr. G. Bush said about the weapons of mass destruction, that was all a lies and just look at all the young men and women we have loss because people believed Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney, sorry I think people should really start opening there eyes. Another thing just take a real close look at the World Trade Center pictures and videos, also why in the name of GOD would people listen to Fox News? Its another government run organization, just check it out and you well see who runs it, check the records if you can find them.

This is documentary of a story that has never been told, more over it has been concealed. Hundreds of thousands of coalition troops have been diagnosed with what is still called a "mystery disease".A growing number of scientists and respected experts in their fields have been coming forward to share their research and first-hand knowledge of official betrayal. As ailing Gulf War Heroes from all 27 coalition countries slowly die of "unknown causes," they wait for answers from their respective governments.The feature length documentary "Beyond Treason" un-covers such topics as: Gulf War Illness, the use of Depleted Uranium (with a half life of 4.3 billion years) on the battlefield, Biological experiments, Experimental Vaccines, and other such projects.Our 100 minute documentary presents comprehensive and compelling documentation from United States Government archives of a massive cover-up lasting over two generations and having long lasting affects world wide.This fast paced documentary contains important life changing information, it's a Real Eye Opener!!!

Whoa! talk about factually incorrect, wallabee2003? Did you even watch the movie? This documentary isn't propaganda its anti-propaganda.They do focus on incoming Iraqi chemical weapons and explain how the troops were inadequately warned or protected if you watch the film you'll see that for your self.The U.S. military outclassed Iraq and would have achieved victory without the use of DU due to advanced computerized targeting capabilities. Most of the KIA in '91 were from friendly fire.I think the purpose was to illustrate a precedent and transcend the false left right political paradigm.Yes their are other documentaries that focus more on the implementation of DU and I recommend everyone watch this or another documentary detailing the effects of DU contamination.What type of military commanders fail to offer proper protection to the chemical & biological agents which they were involved in selling to Iraq (Iran-contra affair) and then expose the troops and the poor civilians to the additional permanent hazards of DU?
