Farenhieght 9/11 by Tanya Diaz (Posted here by Wes Penre for Illuminati News,

Farenhieght [sic] 9/11 is being called
propaganda by the republicans, but what people don't understand is that this
isn't about taking sides between one president or another it is about human
rights and the reasons for going to war. It is about the families that have
suffered because of one mans ego trip.
Farenheight [sic] 9/11 skillfully depicts the president in moments of
complete smugness. Those moments that in anyones [sic] mind so full
of terrorism code alerts or changing diapers would completely neglect. What
the movie basically does is recap the last four years...so you won't IGNORE
IT.
We as humans tend to forget. Unless it has personally happened to us (and
even then sometimes we forget) we erase it out of our memory and keep a
blind eye on the past. As Orwell put it, and Moore so masterfully used in
the end, war thrives on people forgetting and ignoring. If you don't
remember what Bush did 20 years ago, of course you would vote for him now.
The media keeps feeding you new ideas every day so you don't really realize
that your being duped. It s a wild goose chase and we keep chasing our tails
hoping we will accomplish something. So what Moore does is remind you about
all that information we might have forgotten so we can make a more informed
decision in the next election.
There are moments when your heart is heavy. The scenes are not easy to view.
The reality of it stings you and makes you realize what bliss your life is.
Who would have imagined so much negativity could have passed through
people's lives in the last four years? No wonder everyone is all edgy and
there are so many fights and drama between people. How can we be happy if
there is a huge percent of the population in complete turmoil?
It is a case for the human rights activists. If you don't want to fire Bush
after this you definitely have a problem with compassion. You can't deny
what has been done to the world after this concieted [sic], selfish
administration took place. Its almost as if the whole world was turned
upside down again. Yes there has always been disrupt but in that last years
it seems as if the US caused alot of that.
Moore makes you laugh though anyways. He has such a way of feeding you the
truth that you have to crack up just as your crying. He does that to get you
to swallow it all easier. He knows alot of people would ignore him if he
wouldn't make a joke now and then. I see him as arch angel Michael coming
with his sword to cut away all the bad in the world. Supposedly he spares
noone with his sword and honestly he gave it to Bush pretty hard. You leave
the theater going "OUCH thats [sic] gotta hurt!". It's no wonder that
the Bush administration tried to stop it at all costs! It basically makes
them all look like fools. Any Bush lover who watches this will probably have
to sneak out of the theater with their tail between their legs and apologize
for ever arguing thier [sic] point.
After this movie you realize how much change has to take place if we really
want to live in peace. It is beyond changing presidents. We as a whole
society have to stop living in ignorance and really make an effort to
change. In one part a lady is walking past another whose son had died in the
war and she tells her "OH its all a lie, none of it is real" The other lady
looked at her in disbelief and said "Not true? My son died. How can you tell
me it is not true" and all the lady responded was "Where did he die?" (as if
that made an argument) the lady just freaked and told her "IRAQ!" the other
lady couldn't respond. There was nothing left to say. Clearly this woman was
living in her own constructed bubble to protect her from the truth. Because
honestly it does hurt to think that we as a society are only good for war.
Whatever happened to all the hopes and dreams we had as kids? All that
optimism? Was it all just a fairytale constructed to shield us from the
truth until we were old enough to realize realtiy [sic]? I would like
to believe the human race is better than this. That there is more to us than
this huge amount of negativity that constanlty [sic] oozes from us
onto this beautiful earth. Why must we be the only species who destroys
everything? Of course we are not really like that but if we buy into what
this administration is feeding us it is what we become and what we end up
projecting. I am speaking to the people who believe this war was necessary,
that bombing innocent lives was justified (although that is a small portion
of the population). Was it really? If they bombed your house would that be
justified? To kill a dictator it is not necessary to kill children, but that
is what happened. It was unavoidable. If you send a bomb in the air (and i
don't care how guided of a missle [sic] it is) it is technology and
technology can fail and hit the wrong place. I know we want to believe that
won't happen but that isn't reality. That is one thing you will learn from
this movie. reality. You will get clips and you will know reality. There
will be no more room to live in bliss.
You walk away with only one thought "the only thing left to do is take
action".
