The Fog Of War – Eleven Lessons From The Life Of Robert McNamara

Published on September 28, 2015

'The Fog Of War' is a documentary about Robert McNamara, Secretary of Defense in the Kennedy and Johnson Administrations, who subsequently became president of the World Bank. The documentary combines an interview with Mr. McNamara discussing some of the tragedies and glories of the 20th Century with archival footage and documents.

McNamara discusses his experiences and the lessons learned during his tenure as Secretary of Defense under John F. Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson. He talks about his work as a bombing statistician during World War II, his brief tenure as President of Ford Motor Company, and the Kennedy administration's triumph during the Cuban Missile Crisis. However, the film focuses primarily on his failures in Vietnam.

The theme of the film is his "eleven lessons" learned during this time. Some of these include improving military efficiency, understanding your enemy, and the frustrations of trying to deal with (and unsuccessfully trying to change) human nature.

Dead In The Water – The Sinking of the USS Liberty

Published on September 28, 2015

During the Six-Day War, Israel attacked and nearly sank the USS Liberty belonging to its closest ally, the USA. Thirty-four American servicemen were killed in the two-hour assault by Israeli war planes and torpedo boats. Israel claimed that the whole affair had been a tragic accident based on mistaken identification of the ship. The American government accepted the explanation..

For more than 30 years many people have disbelieved the official explanation but have been unable to rebut it convincingly. This documentary uses startling new evidence to reveal the truth behind the seemingly inexplicable attack. The film combines a dramatic reconstruction of the events with new access to former officers in the US and Israeli armed forces and intelligence services who have decided to give their own version of events.

Interviewees include President Lyndon Johnson's Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara, former head of the Israeli navy Admiral Shlomo Errell and members of the USS Liberty crew.

As I stated before, Be Brilliant will remain AS IS, because I now want the site to be a reference and knowledge base for people who want to do and/or are doing their own research into the topics that I've covered. In the weeks and months ahead I will start fixing all the broken links on the website, as an enormous amount of information that was published on the internet from 2020 onwards, i.e. since the start of the fake "COVID-19" pandemic, was censored and removed. I kid you not.

I keep countless back-ups of everything that I posted and I'm going to check all the links and repost the information and videos that were taken down. Be Brilliant is a HUGE website so I'm going to do this in bits and pieces when I have time, but I am a very busy person so be patient.

You can keep track of the updated links in this article and I added a separate column for the links, but I highly recommend that you read the FULL articles for context.

Update March 15th, 2024

I published this article on September 24th, 2023 and as you can read in the introduction I mentioned then, that there truly is rampant online censorship since the since the start of the fake "COVID-19" pandemic. Since you're on my website I'm going to assume that you're not a member of the brainwashed masses, who think that human rights activists like myself "are just exaggerating about the censorship." However, if you are that ignorant, do read on because guess what happened yesterday evening!

Vimeo terminated an account with 200+ videos that I've had there for 7 years, stating "we do not permit accounts that upload conspiracy-related content."

Terminating my account without any notice because I supposedly uploaded "conspiracy-related" content, would be laugh-out-loud ridiculous if it wasn't so pathetic.

Anywayyyy, no worries, because I have all the videos on file so I'll just upload them elsewhere, but it's going to take A LOT of time so you're going to have to be extra extra patient if you're looking for material for your own research. I already created another channel on Bitchute where you can keep track of new uploads. For those of you who don't know this already, fifthelement1971 is the first Bitchute channel that I created for my website. Please note that the default Bitchute embed code doesn't have a fullscreen option, so you can watch the videos there if you want a fullscreen view. And last but not least, thankfully the global team of truth warriors is still very active despite the many desperate attempts by "the powers that will not be" to make all this information disappear. If you run a few searches online you can probably find the information that you're looking for yourself. Don't be lazy and sit around until I re-upload the vids.
