Yep, ole Michael Moore has an agenda. He likes to poke fun at huge corporations and is especially hard on those that stomp on the little guy. He took a point of view that big oil, namely Saudi Arabia got treated with kid gloves after the attacks of September 11, 2001.
He points out how many Saudis participated in the attacks and yet members of their government got special protections and special access within the George W. Bush Whitehouse. Average Americans were forced to find alternative transportation where Saudi government officials were allowed to fly.
This film isn't supposed to be a Frontline report and make no mistake about his intentions. He draws connections that are tenuous at best. Most of the people involved in terrorism are radicals within their own country, but Moore's arguments are so fascinating.
Ironically, these documentaries attacking the rich and privileged have made him one of them. Watch and enjoy this intriguing film.
Weird, Bandon has three copies of the DVD. Coos Bay, Coquille, Lakeside, Myrtle Point and North Bend all have one too. Lakeside also has a VHS copy.
