This week in The Q we take on the much appreciated 2010 Welsch Indie film SUBMARINE from director Richard Ayoade, Starring Craig Roberts, Yasmin Paige and Noah Taylor. Set in the seaside town of Swansea, Submarine explores the world of Oliver Tate, the dryly precocious, soon-to-be-fifteen-year-old hero of this engagingly offbeat story, lives in the seaside town of Swansea, Wales. He sees himself as a self-styled social scientist, a spy in the baffling adult world surrounding him, and a budding, hormone-driven emotional explorer â in other words,Oliver is stealthily (and perhaps a bit more nervously than heâd ever admit) nosing his way forward through the murky and uniquely perilous waters of adolescence⦠His objectives? Uncovering the secrets behind his parentsâ teetering marriage, unraveling the mystery that is his alluring and equally quirky classmate Jordana hides, losing his virginity and possibly understanding where he fits in among the pansexuals, Zoroastrians, and other mystifying, fascinating beings that inhabit his orbit. All of this plus our Top 3 Movie Dream Sequences.

Chris Kyle's War Is Not My War, Says An American Sniper
Feb. 21, 2015, 3:56 p.m.
Garett Reppenhagen reveals that the US stories about Saddam Hussein being part of 9-11 and having WMD unraveled soon after he was deployed to Iraq.
Rappenhagen differentiates between the drafted soldiers in Vietnam and the career oriented soldiers in Iraq and other countries in this new "war against terrorism." Now, only a small fraction of one percent of Americans serve in the army. This causes a disconnect between the reality of the soldiers fighting in a war and public understanding of that reality.
Rappenhagen believes that US nationalism and patriotism have taken over any sort of real religion. What our enemies were fearing was a war against a way of life--this was more dangerous than talk of religion and Bibles.
A military person might be able to disobey some orders, but a soldier disobeying an order to deploy will face ending up in Leavenworth. Rappenhagen is clear that it takes a lot of moral courage to resist fighting and refers to the resisters seeking asylum in Canada.
If you didn't get "a kill" in Iraq, you were often deemed a lesser man. There is enormous amount of peer pressure to compete with each other and constantly be harder and better than other soldiers. "They'll use any sort of way to insult you or degrade you to try to break you down and build you up the way they want it."
"African Liberation Month: The Time Has Come" says Norman Otis Richmond
Feb. 21, 2015, 3:49 p.m.
Richmond breaks down the lie that Blacks were "given" Black History Month by describing the work of Black activists such as Dr. Carter G. Woodson, who focused on the importance of African history and launched the Negro History Week (1926) which grew into Black History Month (1976). Woodson also wrote the seminal book The Miseducation of the Negro. It was Carter's idea to study a part of Black history for a year and then write about it during the Black History month.
The interview turns to Nina Simone, whom Richmond respected and believed stood for something (justice, liberation, revolution) in her music and in her support for Malcolm X and Martin Luther King in Selma. She is an historical figure and the revolutionary message of her music will live on forever.

Psychologist Paul Bloom explains why prejudice is natural, rational and even moral. The key is to understand why we depend on it, and recognize when it leads us astray.
"Stereotypes are often rational and useful, but sometimes they're irrational, they give wrong answers and other times they lead to plainly immoral consequences." â Paul Bloom

Moving Beyond Murder
"I refused to leave prison, or die in prison, trapped in this animalistic state. And I would do whatever was necessary to reclaim the parts of me that I knew were good." - Shaka Senghor
At the age of 19, Shaka Senghor was jailed for shooting and killing a man. That event started his years-long journey to redemption. While serving his sentence for second-degree murder, Shaka discovered redemption and responsibility through literature and his own writing.
After his release, Shaka reached out to young men following in his footsteps. Senghor collaborated with the MIT Media Lab to imagine creative solutions for the problems in distressed communities.

This episode of the Global Research NEws HOur is being produced on the occasion of the anniversary of the turbulent events which saw the democratically elected Preisdent of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych, replaced in what some have called a Coup D'etat, fostered by US and NATO interests and enabled by Neo-Nazis.

Hans von Sponeck - Joy Gordon on Death By Economic Sanction
Feb. 19, 2015, 10:45 p.m.
Hans von Sponeck, " A different Kind of War", former UN Humanitarian Coordinator for Iraq and Joy Gordon, "Invisible War", of Fairfield University speak about their experience with and research of US and British policies that crippled the United Nation's intent not to harm civilians as a result of enforcing economic sanctions against Iraq. Each documents in their respective books the scale of suffering perpetrated against children and the civilian society. Gordon speaks to the corruption and criminality that the sanctions created and the opposite effect than intended of strengthening the power of the Iraqi government over its citizens.
Update:
"During the 1990âs, Britain supported severe economic sanctions against Iraq because of Saddamâs increasing resource nationalism. The United Nations estimated that 1.7 million Iraqis died as a result of the sanctions. Five hundred thousand of these victims were children.
The British and American sanctions on Iraq killed more civilians than the entirety of chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons used in human history." The text from a subsequent article by Garikai Chengu following release of the Chilcot report.
