DVD Reviews of The End of America: Director's Cut
DVD Review: Film combines both Naomi Wolf books
Summary: 4 Stars
In her 2007 book THE END OF AMERICA, Naomi Wolf listed the ten steps regimes such as the Bush Administration took to lead a nation away from democracy. The steps are in CAPS followed by examples of the Bush gang's methods:
1) INVOKE AN EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL THREAT
The "War on Terror"
2) ESTABLISH SECRET PRISONS
The "Extraordinary Rendition" program
3) DEVELOP A PARAMILITARY FORCE
Blackwater
4) SURVEIL ORDINARY CITIZENS
Warrantless wiretapping, which Bush started before September 11, 2001, and not after, by the way(despite what the corporate media says)
5) INFILTRATE CITIZENS' GROUPS
The film FAHRENHEIT 9-11 depicts one example, the peace organization that learned a member was undercover law enforcement
6) ARBITRARILY DETAIN AND RELEASE CITIZENS
The 2004 Republican convention, where New York City police arrested people just for being on the street
7) TARGET KEY INDIVIDUALS
Bush administration whistle-blowers lost their jobs and careers
8) RESTRICT THE PRESS
The moneyed interests controlling governments such as Bush's have bought up major media
9) CAST CRITICISM AS "ESPIONAGE" AND DISSENT AS "TREASON"
This relates to step 8, press restriction, as the corporate-controlled media follows Bush administration-dictated talking points, personally attacking Bush critics because it is impossible to refute their arguments
10) SUBVERT THE RULE OF LAW
George W. Bush has misused the presidential signing statement privilege hundreds of times as an excuse to violate the law; the corporate media (step 8, again) barely reports it, as pleasing the Bush gang means further deregulation and greater profits
One year later Naomi Wolf followed up with another book, GIVE ME LIBERTY, where the author applied what she taught in THE END OF AMERICA. You could consider THE END OF AMERICA the theory class and GIVE ME LIBERTY the practicum. The second book reported on modern-day patriots standing up to American government oppression.
Now the documentary THE END OF AMERICA comes, as if to combine the two books. The film features author Wolf explaining the ten steps governments take to close down an open society and includes clips that support each claim. As you view footage from Germany under Hitler and America under the "War on Terror," how much difference do you see?
THE END OF AMERICA D.V.D. is available for purchase here. Netflix customers can view THE END OF AMERICA on-line and you can also watch it on the I.M.D.B. web site.
