I think the video is as boring as hell. I think it's extremely pedantic and disappointing that people feel the need to head back twenty years into a country's history to rake up misdeeds by previous administrations. I think it distracts from present-day issues, and I think you're trying to excuse behaviour from the Iranians by trying to show hypocrisy in American actions, when both countries are equally guilty of horrendous human rights abuses.

What am I doing on Amnesty? Well, I'm carrying on donating my money, time and trying to do what I can to raise awareness in line with common sense, instead of wasting my time producing poor quality videos that contain very little but pointless, repetitive, reductionist rhetoric that provides very little in the way of actual action relating to actual situations. Amnesty isn't your political vehicle for your "Capitalist Holocaust", or whatever - it's devoted to applying the same standards of human rights globally, not attempting to excuse anyone for abuses.

To dontsurf: It's extremely pedantic to point out a typo. What about the content of the video? Do you refute any of the facts raised? Do you really think semi-colons are more important than the lives of people? What are you doing on Amnesty International?

It's spelled "Nicaragua". Also, terrible use of the semicolon. Don't make any more until you have your English GCSE.
