I have a Michael Moore F9/11 question. |
|
I saw it in the theater and now I bought the DVD. And I don't think I can find any references to PNAC in it. I don't have a lot of time to watch it a third time right now but I will. But did I miss anything about PNAC? And if it's not in there why not??

That would just about be a movie by itself.
There is a LOT that isn't in F9/11. Think of it as a "primer" for the uninitiated to get a crash course in the shit that's going down. Yes, PNAC is important, but you have to pick and choose your footage cause you simply can't show everything. There is simply too much.

2. Perhaps because the PNAC deserves more attention than |
|
a snippet.
or because the PNAC connection would undercut some of the Saudi tie, which was Moore's focus.
The * cabal is not a unified block, but a loose coalition of sometimes antagonistic factions -- There's the BFEE, with its arms industry and Nazi ties, linked to the Saudis and (weirdly) Sun Myung Moon; There's the PNAC, largely far right Likudnik Israelphiles, including Perle, Wolfowitz, who seem to think more of Israel than the US; There's the Dominionist/Christian Zionists, Pat Robertson, Ashcroft, * himself, who are bound to preserve Israel because it is to become the battleground for Armageddon (save them now so we can nuke the place later); There's the old time Goldwater/Reagan repuglicans, allied with the PNAC in believing in American hegemony and imperialism; and there are the few disoriented Rockefeller republicans who are wandering around wondering what the fuck happened to their party.
Couldn't expect Moore to include all that.
