hollywoodisation of history
by sayan mukherjee on Mar 18, 2007 03:04 PM

hollywood has kept on doing this over the years. by now the world knows that the second world war was between germany and america and others chipped in a bit. they know that the battle for independence in america was bigger than anything else in the country. they know that indians eat baboon heads and snatch the hearts from the bodies of small children and kali is a demon. they know that the ancient great civilization of the mayans was also a barbarian civilization which was destroyed not by spanish but by themselves.

now the world will know that the persian empire which till today as per reliable history documents was one of the stunningly progressive empires which was loaded with wealth, believed in equality of humans, etc was actually a barbarian nation.

in second world war goebbles did it to germany. it is amazing to see how hollywood is doing it to the whole world.

long live western greatness and the american hotdog....
