The Movie ' The Innocence Of Muslims '

Next, I am going to portray what the media thinks about the Benghazi attacks. Since the United States has helped the Libyan revolution, Libya has been a hot zone full of extreme radical Islamists loaded down with heavy artillery such as machine guns, mortars and rocket propelled grenades. To make it look as if the U.S involvement has been successful the Obama administration has sought out a plan of “normalization,” which means scaling down the security forces near the Embassy and Consulate to make it look like everything is okay. The security forces that had been in Libya, a sixteen man team of ex-Navy SEALs and Green Berets, was pulled out just a month before the attack.

What, not who, is to be blamed for 9/11? It’s very clear that the primary cause of 9/11 was the planes, hijacked by Al-Qaeda terrorists, crashing into the buildings. However, it’s also commonly known that the twin towers stood for a memorable a hundred and two minutes before crashing down from the view the manhattan skyline. So how were so many lives lost when there was so much time to escape the buildings? Many have searched for answers, and have come to conspiratorial conclusions, biased and without relatable evidence. However after reviewing the information on the attacks, one thesis stands above the rest of them; the lack of communication was responsible for the greatest loss of life. Though there are many other great points to be made

On September 11th, 2012, the American consulate in Benghazi, Libya was attacked. During the attack, around 150 men killed U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and another diplomat. A few hours later, the CIA annex was attacked and two more were killed. At the start of the attack, news had reached the United States. Later that night and into the morning, Leon Panetta, Secretary of Defense at the time, was informed. When the president was informed, however is not known. The question of who was responsible came up quickly. When asked, White House officials, including Hillary Clinton, responded that the attack was spurred on by an anti-Muslim video on YouTube. The owner of the video was taken into custody. However, the truthfulness

After a horrible terroristic attack that shocked the whole world on September 11th in the center of New York City, Muslims in the Western world have been constantly fighting against prejudice. After September 11, media interest in Islam increased, where Islam was usually portrayed in a negative way. Before 9/11, many Muslims lived the normal, everyday life. However, the attack has changed lives of many people that belonged to the Muslim community, where they were the victims of guilt. Unfortunately, many Americans were introduced to Islam, after the 9/11 attack, thus even till today, Islam is associated with terrorism. For the past ten years, Muslims felt excluded from the American society by being rifled, attacked, discriminated, checked

    On September 11, 2001, Islamic extremists stole four airplanes and carried out suicide attacks against the United States. Two of the airplanes were flown into the twin towers in New York City, the third airplane hit the Pentagon outside Washington, D.C., and the fourth airplane crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. Known as 9/11, the attacks resulted in extensive death and destruction, triggering the United States to create major changes in their security and terrorism protocols. While everyone agrees that what happened on 9/11 was terrible, many believe that the changes in America’s security protocols are not for the best. How 9/11 affected America’s security protocols was for the worse, it caused: privacy invasion for foreign and American civilians in airports, immigration laws increased out of fear, and discrimination and racism towards Arab civilians.

There are many theories on what actually happened and who was involved in the 9/11 attack. The most common word is that Islamic terrorists were the main group involved. It is also said that these terrorists were financed by Osama bin Laden’s al-Qaeda terrorist organization. Which is why he was such a wanted man after the attacks. But it wasn't just the Islamic terrorists who were involved, many say that there were many other Arab nations involved in some way, such as the planning and details.

Who should be accountable for the Benghazi attacks? Is it the pentagon or congress. The Benghazi attacks could of been prevented if it wasn’t for the failure of the state department because they didn’t increase security and denied the pentagon’s request during attacks.

The three movies I decided to watch were Leave It on the Floor, New Muslim Cool, and Terrors of Tiny Town. Leave It on the Floor is a musical about a young man named Brad who gets kicked out of his home and finds refuge in the drag community. New Muslim Cool is a documentary about a man who converts to Islam and turns his life around. He once was a drug dealer and now is a man who helps others and spreads the word of Islam. Terrors of Tiny Town is a musical and a Western with a cast made up entirely of dwarfs. The film is about a feud between two families. I chose to write my film review about Leave It on the Floor because it was the most interesting and entertaining to me. It is one of those movies that you cannot stop thinking about after you watch it. We talked a lot about the LGBTQ community in another class I am taking this semester so I thought this movie was a good choice for me to dive deeper into. Paris is Burning came up a lot in our discussion of this topic and it was great to finally watch it. The documentary is incredibly enlightening with regards to the struggles of young adults who identify as LGBTQ.

Secretary Clinton repeatedly said that terrorist were responsible for the attack and that the film had nothing to do with the attack,but she told America that the film caused the attack and made no mention of terrorist. Clinton told the egyptian prime minister that the video had nothing to do with the Benghazi attack.Hillary Clinton did not lie to the Egyptian Prime Minister but she did lie to America about how the video caused the attack.A news outlet wrongly stated the Ambassador Stevens was killed

On September 11, 2012, the U.S. embassy in Benghazi, Libya, was attacked resulting in the death of U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. This was the first time since 1979, that a U.S. ambassador has been killed in the line of duty (Voorhees). There have been speculations that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton received information about the attack, and did nothing about it. Some might say that she could have saved the lives of those lost on that tragic day. The U.S. military had troops that were in range and could have provided much needed support to the embassy. However, these forces were told to stand down by the White House. Also, the White House purposefully misled the public on how the entire incident started. Finally, when investigating the Benghazi incident, government officials found a private email account that belonged to Hillary Clinton, that she used to email private, classified information about issues such as Benghazi. As the 2016 presidential election approaches, many republican candidates and TV shows, such as Fox News, has taken this issue and publicized it to the American people, to ensure that she will not become president. Also,

The people who caused the attacks were not. They were Arabs, who belonged to an Islamic extremist group, and lived in Afghanistan (“What Happened on 9/11?”). To my eye this group of people are very identifiable. They are dark complected and wear turbans or scarves around their head for religious purposes. Since they were so noticeable in a crowd it made it easier for the government or United States citizens to have something against them and punish them for what a select few did to our country. When the United States found out that members of Al Qaeda have done this act they grouped all Muslims into that category of being an extremist (“What Happened on 9/11”). When America turned their backs against Muslim-Americans and they were forced to stay in their homes for weeks because of the fear that they would be attacked (“The challenge of being a Muslim in post-9/11 America”). One day made them America's next

Most everyone over the age of 10 can remember exactly where they were and what they were doing the moment the planes hit the World Trade Center. As a former Federal Law Enforcement Officer I painfully remember the hours and days following this event and the lack of sleep that all Law Enforcement, Firefighters, Intelligence Officers and others who responded. The United States Government must formulate a workable solution to the intelligence gathering, evaluation, information-sharing and database storage issues in order to adequately protect the citizens of this nation and attempt to stop the next 9/11.

The terrorist attack on the United States on September 11th, 2001, exposed the country's preparedness to threats by an emerging threat of terrorism. The United States Department of Homeland Security was brought to life through the Homeland Security Act of 2002. Precisely, this was in response to the country's preparedness to stop such acts of terrorism on American soil. However, it was also mandated to response to such natural disasters such as hurricane as part of a wider responsibility to ensure people within the American borders were secured from all forms of danger (Kamien, 2006).

September 11, 2001 marked the most horrific day in history for United States of America. The events of this day changed the lives of those residing in America forever. United States was considered somewhat safe, in regards to terrorists’ attacks. However, this all came to a screeching halt when 19 militants known to be a part of the Al-Qaeda terrorist group hijacked four planes for the purpose of destroying targeted areas in the United States. As a result of the deadly attack on the United States, security measures drastically changed. Although, security measures throughout the United States have been in place, extreme caution came into effect. All departments looked at different measures to improve preventing terrorists’ attacks.

“Zarqawi an associate collaborator of Osama bin Laden and his al-Qaeda lieutenants”. These words are part of Colin Powell’s speech presented at the Security Council. These words of a Secretary of State (2001-2005) have drawn a connection between al-Qaeda and Iraq. These words have really started the disaster (Kirk). Iraq declared its independence relatively recently on October 3, 1932 ("Iraq Government"). Because the system of government as well as its politics and politicians are still developing, the country still has so many unresolved social, economic, and political issues. “The Secret History of ISIS” is a documentary that demonstrates to which consequences these problems have led, lays out the timeline of how the ISIS was created, and depicts how the American government was not able to react according to the situation quick enough. Michael Kirk, creator of “The Secret History of ISIS”, reveals the great influence of mass media, implies the importance politics, and how individuals with authority can become a disaster.
