5/02 A Mother’s Plea For Justice: A tale of a forgotten heinous crime in Abu-Sleem prison massacre
A documentary video about a grieving mother who is determined to fight for justice for her teenage son, killed together with 1200 alleged political prisoners in AbuSleem prison massacre in Libya 1996. On June 28 1996, a dispute between the prison authorities and the prisoners over deplorable prison living conditions escalated into a confrontation with the prison authorities in which 1 guard and 6 prisoners were killed. After lengthy negotiations led by senior security official Abdullah Al-Sanussi, the prisoners were promised that their demands would be addressed if they return to their cells, which they did. On the next day, hundreds of unarmed prisoners were forced into different prison courtyards. Security forces on rooftops started throwing grenades into the crowds followed by continuous shootings for 2-3 hours. At the end, 1,200 unarmed prisoners were killed in cold blood and buried in mass graves at a secret location.

June 2011
Democratic change has been demanded across the Middle East. But was what seems like a spontaneous revolution actually a strategically planned event, fabricated by ‘revolution consultants’ long in advance?
Revolution consultants are the worst nightmare of every regime. Srdja Popovic was a founder of the organisation ‘Otpor’, a revolution training school. It was instrumental in the overthrow of Slobodan Milosevic in the 1990s and has now inspired a new generation of activists. Political commentators like William Engdahl are convinced Otpor is being financed by the USA. “The people from Otpor gave us a book in which they described all their strategies”, says Ezzedine Zaatour of the Tunisian uprising. That book was written by an American, Gene Sharp, and is now considered the “revolution guide book”, being used by opposition movements worldwide. As Optor release their latest gadget, a resistance training computer game sponsored by American organisations, world leaders are voicing their concerns. “This is called a gentle coup!”, insists Hugo Chavez.
