Fahrenheit 9/11


It is simply an ‘A’ class documentary. Just 2 hrs changed my views on America’s war on Iraq and Afghanistan.
As if the world’s most powerful man is not a fool- that was my opinion. Ironically, it is correct despite his child like insincere behavior. This man has just one thing on his mind – his family profits. But what surprised me even more is that despite all so close connections with Saudis and Bush’s alliance with the Osama’s close aids, Bush is not been openly accused except by Moore’s film. It is very much like something that happens in India i.e. politicians openly getting away even after breaking the laws.

Did you know or could you ever imagine that –

Bush spent 42% of his presidential time on vacations before 9/11.
James Bath – Bin Laden family’s close aid is a close friend of George W. Bush.

The Carlyle group’s (United Defense) – 11th largest US military contractor has a heavy investment from Laden’s family.
Saudi’s investment in USA is approximately $ 860 Bn.
Saudi’s own 6 - 7% of equity market of America.
Hamid Karzai, President appoint of Afghanistan was an advisor to Unocal, a business partner company of Bush’s family.

This documentary strongly contradicts Bush decision to attack Iraq. It clearly demonstrates that the available evidences signaled that Saudi is at fault (due to Osama’s establishment there) and not Iraq.


Though Iraq’s invasion was strongly opposed within America but Bush administration kept reciting the ‘was against terror’ slogans. His top executives issued statements about Iraq’s accessibility upon nuclear technology (though these statements were in stark contrast to their earlier remarks). The public bought in the artificial ‘America under attack’ image. Bush was able to gather Americans’ confidence.

This documentary covers emotions of the dead soldier’s family and the prevailing grief in Iraq. Speaks against the patriot bill and films Moore’s courageous stunt of asking (in person) congress members to send their kids to the war.

“Fahrenheit 9/11” is a must see for anyone who believes that there is no space for lethargy or non-action at the top. And so despite all your weaknesses and immaturity, you always stand a chance to reach till the top. Good Luck for your aims!!

CEIBS- preparations

Quite some time since I wrote something on this blog. Hey, but it doesn't mean that you feel that I've been Lazy !! It is just that I was and I am busy with the preparations for JOBLESSNESS and rejoining SCHOOL.

The biggest challenge for me and for many others whom I interacted with is of Loans. the problem is that CEIBS has no loan tie-ups with banks for overseas students except those from China and Europe. And the issue is that the bank personnel are not very confidents about the reputation of an intitute in China. So each bank manager, whom I met, I'd to show the MBA ratings and explain the progressive approaches CEIBS take to maintain a continuously Up path in the rankings. Obviously that 10 minutes discussion makes all the required difference but still the manager need a list of formalities done before student gets the cheque. I am sure that in India, CEIBS will certainly acquire the all prevailing good repute which ISB enjoys, but before that happens, I am sure that the loan release will be a lill painful to all the would-be students too. I shall cerainly try to discuss and open up ways bank tie ups for the Indian students too.

To get a VISA has realle been a cake walk with no necessity of an interview and a just 4 days wait. One could also get an express VISA, which is given on the same day of application (but for an extra fee..:( ....... )

CEIBS has given all new entrants, access to a common online forum which we are utilising for knowing each other and resolving other queries among ourselves or through the current students. {My friend is still scrolling in the pics of the :-),...... Guys are gettig ready fo ... Lolz }

And to our surprise and to kill our TOTAL freedom, school has o'ready sent us the scope of a Math/ Statistics test, which shall be taken during the orientation week. {A light Flavour of the days & Nights ahead..........:-) }

Enough for now... since after a days long trekking, I am feeling tired and would be hititng the bed soon......
