Doing a project for Media - 9/11 being Bush's Reichstag Fire

[Breukelen advocaat]

So, for my practical project for Media we are allowed to either do coursework on:
Advertising and Marketing
Film and Genre
Documentary
The thing I love about this, is that we are allowed to choose ANY field we want for any of the topics. I chose documentary, and I was thinking about doing a project on Muslims/Islam and how it is being singled out in todays society following 9/11 and 7/7.
BUT, I changed my mind. Instead, I have chosen to write a documentary about how terrorism is a total farce; made up to scare the public and allow draconian laws to be passed. A large part of this project will be comparing George W. Bush to Adolf Hitler, of which there are numerous similarities. The main one is how Hitler, during the 1930's, blamed the Jews for every problem that Germany faced, eventually brainwashing the majority of the population and leading to the near extintion of the Jewish race. George Bush and Tony Blair are also trying to do this, by essentially drilling the fact into our heads that every single Muslim is evil, and Islam is Satan. We are unaware of it, but each day I hear more and more people telling me how Muslims are to blame for terrorism and that Islam preaches hate.
So, considering Im in the U.K. and will be comparing both Bush and Blair to Hitler (mainly Bush though, Blair is just his lap-dog), is there anything I should be careful writing about in this project? I understand that it is an extremely controversial piece of coursework, but fuck it, I was born controversial

It belongs in the politics forum, for sure.


I was just in Washington, D.C., and saw practically no police, no army, no anti-Muslim hysteria, or anything else that you suggest. Yes, was a war in Iraq - but it's very unpopular right now with the public.

If you think that "terrorism is a total farce", I feel sorry for you.

There is no "Jewish Race". Judaism is a religion.

Bush and Blair have never "drilled" anything against Islam into our heads. They are far less against Islam, and other religions, than I am.

Islam is a hateful religion, but you'd have to read portions of the Koran, and it's directives, to understand that.

Bush may be stupid, but he's not a Hitler.

Pick another topic - you don't know what you're doing.
