"Ambassador" Film/ Monday Night

I just wanted to post this message and let everyone know about the film "Ambassador" that was shown at the IPJ last night.

The film was well done, and it documented the possible human rights violations intelligence czar John Negroponte may be guilty of from his ambassadorship in Honduras and Nicaragua in the 1980's.

The film was powerful, and illustrated the current struggle that is going on worldwide to end official impunity and shed light on the criminal activity military and political leaders have engaged in over the years.

The film is not available on DVD yet because they are looking for a publisher, but I would recommend anyone who is interested in international human rights and increasing accountability to those responsible for carrying out these violations to check out this film on the web or go to peace.sandiego.edu and read about the film there.
