| This movie explores what all Radical Islamic Extremists, who only make up 10%-15% of the Muslim population, are really trying to do, and how. You have to see this movie to get a real prespective of the problems we have in the world. | |

This film is narrated by, primarily, right wing commentators - very few academics, and fewer actual muslims. While it identifies a real problems of anti-semitism in parts of the Islamic world, it fails to really identify why hate of jews, america, 'the west' etc. persists. To say that 'moderate muslims' should speak out against the extremists is very weak, don't you think? How can anyone stop the spread of hate when the US, Europe, and Israel make it so easy for hatred to persist? Essentially, good film, but lack of introspection/ self-criticism.
Also, the connection with Nazi Germany is a red-herring. The threat of Nazism was from a state, the threat of Islamo-terrorism is diffuse.
Thanks for posting this on your blog!
