Michael Moore's documentary Fahrenheit 9/11 presents a critical view of the Bush administration and the War on Terror. Through humor and documented evidence, Moore argues that Bush is an incompetent president leading a corrupt administration. He suggests Bush's real goal in the War on Terror may have been regime change in Iraq rather than fighting terrorism effectively. The film also questions whether patriotism or human life should take priority, as recruiters target poor neighborhoods to fill army ranks. While Moore says America is great, he implies Bush is ruining the country like past capitalists have. The film provokes questions about U.S. leadership but could have explored its topics more deeply.

Michael Moore's film, "Fahrenheit 9/11," presents a critical look of the Bush Jr. administration and the War on Global Terrorism. Beyond of humor (very funny), Michael presents very valid arguments and backs them up with documentation and interviews. The filmmaker brings to light many of the things on terrorism, leadership, international relations, etc. The primary goal of film is: offer evidence that George W. Bush is an incompetent President and that his administration is corrupt. Bush has often showed that, as president, he is in over his head. He has never hidden his lack of intelligence. Also are brought to the surface his blunders in foreign policy matters. Shall ask more questions formulated. Really this president can effectively fight against terrorism? Bush's real goal in the program "War on Terrorism" was to force a regime change in Iraq or something else? The film imposes a sentimental note with a dose full of patriotism. The young men and women who have only hope in life are to enlist in the army. The author is trying to raise another question, namely: what is above, patriotism changing or human life? Recruiters won't bother with any rich neighborhoods to find any recruits. No they focus exclusively on the high schools in the poor parts of town and make big promises to the young men and women who have very little hope of a decent future to begin with, to lure them into the army. Only one member of Congress has a son serving in Iraq. These things reveal a lot about patriotism. In the movie Moore says America is a great country. The implication is also that Bush and Co. are ruining the country, as if all capitalists for 200 years haven't constantly ruined life for the vast majority. American ideology always says "The country's great the problem is particular politicians and specific millionaires" (Wall Street). The country's "great" for the Moore, because the myth that in America you can raise whatever your background has paid off for him. For at least 90% of the poor and working class, this is the carrot that is never reached. It's not just that Moore doesn't want to be accused of anti-Americanism, which could certainly reduce sales, but the fact that one of the more regressive aspects of opposition. In the States is that it has to claim to be patriotic, because basically it sees solutions only in national terms because all sense of international class struggle and of its history has been lost. Ignoring all historical experience, they hope to develop some national political organization to reform the State. Having now seen Fahrenheit 9/11, I wonder about the controversy. The movie is not skilled enough or incisive enough to represent a cause for concern of United States as a global leader. I expected the historical and philosophical topics and answers richest. For example: Why leadership Demands a Pagan Ethos?
