The End Of America Trailers

Based on her book of the same name, Naomi Wolf presents controversial evidence that America has begun a frightening descent into dictatorship and fascism. American democracy, as we know it, is under attack. By examining the chilling parallels between the current state of our nation and the ascent of dictators and fascism in other once-free societies, Wolf urges viewers to open their eyes to the horrors that lie ahead. From the increased use of paramilitary groups to the construction of secret prisons and the targeted suspension of the rule of law, the warning signs are all there for people to wake up and finally take notice.

Naomi Wolf, who wrote the book by the same name, presents to a real audience, an audio video illustration of the points she makes in her book. You can choose to dismiss any or part of what she says and presents if you cannot take the truth for what it is. Like Jack Nicholson shouted in a 'A Few Good Men', "You can't handle the truth!"Wolf has the scholarly credentials and merits being taken seriously. The movie is not the kind of hype you get from a Michael Moore production, not in the same class. She has done her research, consulted with the right people and displays courage to so straightforwardly bring hard facts unreserved. She will no doubt have to pay a price in the future for bringing to light the horrible truth.I've viewed many serious documentaries and read numerous books which account for all that I deplore about our current society, but none has touched on the most horrific topic so graphically. I should have been prepared for this, and believed I was, after reading "War Is a Racket", "The Assault On reason" and "The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power"; I wasn't. Never mind the doom saying of all sorts by authors who cover all those reprehensible behaviour of corporations, banks and the State; 'The End Of America' covers the most important and basic principles we hold dear, demonstrating it is all a big illusion. Behold the New World Order. In my humble opinion, the hope she unfortunately tries to convey with some passion falls short of making a believer out of me. I trust one thing to be true and that is that history repeats itself and as Confucius was reportedly been attributed as saying: The world will unfold as it should". It always does so at great cost to humanity.p.s. Other reviews did not have the benefit of the time elapsed since they were written so some comments are of course now inaccurate. Time will tell if mine is any better.

C'mon people, don't be stupid sheep,this person is taking things out of history and compareing them to Bush,gee how original,when 911 happened Bush set up a homeland security, (1)for America, (2) it's people, to stop terrorism, Hitler was the terrorist, he murdered millions, he wanted to take over the world, he wanted it to be his world....You love Obama so much why is everything Bush acted on and set up is still being implemented by Obama's administration. Our rights are still safe, and sound, alittle bruised, but we are trying to live in a new world and times. We are safe because of our troops and by people who know a hell of a lot more than the people who made this movie and is trying to scare you into we don't have the power to control our own lives. Be very careful, these are the people you should be afraid of. Remember she trying to sell a book, it makes for good reading.....

Unlike the previous comments, I watched this from start to finish and found it to be thought provoking. I didn't find it to be "liberal" but more the comments from some respected individuals who earnestly want to defend every American's rights and freedoms.This movie is not filled with hysterical comment, speeches or scenes but carefully lays out the fact as reported in newspapers across the US and in Congressional and Senate hearings. It is a should watch for every citizen in the free world and a should watch for every American.BTW I also have the infamous "SSSS" designation on my airline tickets because I fly one way from city to city. As a WASP, in my early 60's, wearing a suit I apparently look and act like a terrorist.

This movie is so interesting in that it was directed at the Bush administration, but the message relates to any president, including Obama. The real thing that Naomi is getting across is that we need to protect our constitutional rights. If you look at what is going on right now in the U.S., we need to watch the Obama administration too. Capital gains taxes going from 22 percent to 35 percent will kill capitalism, free trade, and the American dream. No one will be able to open a small business, and other small businesses will have to shut down, and these are our main job creators. This goes without even talking about the one trillion dollars that we are about to spend, half of which is not even intended to stimulate the economy, but to fulfill special interest democratic agendas. The redistribution of wealth will ultimately turn us to a socialist mindset, and possibly a socialist country. Additionally, when this one trillion is distributed, many economists are agreeing that people are realizing that this is a one time thing, so they will put it away and save it. When companies receive more revenue during "stimulus" time, they are realizing that "hey, it's just the stimulus" and will not hire more employees or expand their business. Here is the best part... When the economy recovers, all of this money that people are receiving and putting away will start to emerge, and then, duh duh duh, INFLATION! This is basic economics, just pick up an economics book and I bet it's in the first five chapters. I am not saying that this WILL happen, and I definitely want our country to get out of this mess and succeed. I am simply reiterating what Naomi was trying to get across, and that is that we need to protect our precious constitutional rights and watch our government as closely as possible no matter who is in office.
