Reviewer Thinks Hijackers Should Have "Consulted" on UNITED 93

Slant Magazine ^ | April, 2006 | Keith Uhlich

[John Robertson]

Yeah, so easy to turn "adversaries into monsters" when all they do is murder a planeload of innocent Americans, try to bring our government to a halt, participate in a plot that killed thousands more innocents, and plunge us into a War On Terror that our grandchildren will probably still be fighting.

We know what we're up against, but every once in a while it pays to check in and see what kind of diseased minds who would destroy us all are really out there.

Keith is on the "staff" of a site called "Toxic Universe." Of course he is. Here's from his bio--it drips with the kind of feel-good, nonjudgemental toxicity that's truly killing us all:

"It’s not about convincing, he feels, or stating a final, unchangeable point. Rather it’s through our differences (of both physical self and emotional experience) that truths will arise."

Thanks, Keith--so much! As it turns out, his email address is also his literal location in life: keith@toxicuniverse.com. In case anyone wanted to respond to this fine young mind.

[CzarNicky]

How exactly do they want the hijackers to consult considering they are busy looking for icewater right now.

[expatpat]

I think you have been had -- it sounds like a satire, to me (e.g.,Slant vs Slate)

[John Robertson]

No, I have not been had. It's for real. The guy has written a zillion reviews, and the site is real.

But Keith's parents were had.

[goldstategop]

Hey, where's the MEGABARF ALERT??? Stupid liberal idiot!!!

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

Wholly crap.

[Ainast]

Is United 93 the same movie that aired on A&E a while back? I swear I remember watching a made for tv movie by that name about 9/11.

[dighton]

All evidence suggests that the terrorists' relatives were left entirely out of the creative process . . .

This wanker appears to be in earnest.

[Petronski]

No. The A&E film was not United 93.

[packrat35]

What a steaming pile this is! Good lord, how can someone be so stupid?

[expatpat]

I think it may have been "Flight 93".

[expatpat]

Perhaps it is. It sure sounds like parody.

[sinkspur]

It sure sounds like parody.

I'm with you.

[Hayzo]

Too bad the reviewer wasn't on flight 93 so he could get a more accurate account from the terrorists side.

[John Robertson]

Different movie, same event. That was tv, this is for theatrical distribution.

[aculeus]

This wanker appears to be in earnest.

Indeed. He gave it a half star rating.

[PA Engineer]

I'm going to borrow a word from another thread. Hey Keith...Backpfeifengesicht.

[Chgogal]

Or better yet have a tete-a-tete (pun intended) with one of his "victims" as he slices Keith's head off while chanting Allah Akbar. Then his fellow Toxic idiots could interview the "victim's" parents and the parents would insist that the Jews were behind the beheading. How can the left be so bloody stupid?

[tophat9000]

Too bad the reviewer wasn't on flight 93 so he could get a more accurate account from the terrorists side.

No then this knucklehead would have warn the terrorist that passengers were going to storm the cockpit

[Ichneumon]

Indeed. He gave it a half star rating.

I haven't seen the film myself, but I heard Glenn Beck talk about it on his radio show, and he was so overwhelmed by it he had to stop several times because he was too emotional and choked up to continue. He said it was one of the most moving films he had ever seen.
