Here is the letter I send to PBS.
Dear Mr. Steven Silver,
How about a program called 'Soul of America' on how it leveled a 3rd world country situated far, far away from America called Afghanistan wrapped up in its own problems? On how America went and bombed already poor cities, killed innocent civilians, terrorized ignorant rural lives? On how it changed the social, religious, political, economic and cultural face of Afghanistan.
But make sure you do not mention any thing about September 11, 2001. Then it will be exactly like 'Soul of India' where you are documenting what happened in Gujarat without mentioning that it is a reaction to what the Muslims did.
Regards,
sumana
