Not trying to be spammy here, but has anyone else seen this film? I just watched it and strongly believe that it should be required viewing for every American, lest we forget exactly who and what we're up against.
From the website:
"Obsession - Radical Islam's War Against the West is a new film that will challenge the way you look at the world.
Almost 70 years ago, Europe found itself at war with one of the most sinister figures in modern history: Adolf Hitler. When the last bullet of World War II was fired, over 50 million people were dead, and countless countries were both physically and economically devastated. Hitler’s bloody struggle sought to forge the world anew, in the crucible of Nazi values. How could such a disaster occur? How could the West have overlooked the evil staring it in the face, for so long, before standing forcefully against it?
Today, we find ourselves confronted by a new enemy, also engaged in a violent struggle to transform our world. As we sleep in the comfort of our homes, a new evil rises against us. A new menace is threatening, with all the means at its disposal, to bow Western Civilization under the yoke of its values. That enemy is Radical Islam.
Using images from Arab TV, rarely seen in the West, Obsession reveals an ‘insider's view' of the hatred the Radicals are teaching, their incitement of global jihad, and their goal of world domination. With the help of experts, including first-hand accounts from a former PLO terrorist, a Nazi youth commander, and the daughter of a martyred guerilla leader, the film shows, clearly, that the threat is real.
A peaceful religion is being hijacked by a dangerous foe, who seeks to destroy the shared values we stand for. The world should be very concerned."
Should read: “Obama: Radical Islam’s War Against the West.”
I agree with you about the importance of this film. You can purchase the DVD at: http://www.obsessionthemovie.com/ and they encourage spreading the word about it.
Blockbuster has it
Yep, saw it on the film festival circuit a few years back.
The MSM is deliberately downplaying the threat.
I see that Netflix has this movie now. I’m curious what supplements have been added.
Yep, I own it. Very good information. Buy the DVD and support the company.
I use to wonder how my parent's generation watched evil like Hitler rise to power in the late 30's without taking action to stop his intent before he started WWII.
Now I see it happening again with radical islamic-facism within my own generation. It appears we are doomed to repeat history.
I did a quick search on YouTube and see that there are several clips from the film posted. Just look for “Obsession the movie.” Another option if you’re looking to save a few bucks, though it’s not quite the same as watching the whole thing.

There is open support for it on American campuses and at political rallies.
Europe too has seen the “behead those who insult Islam” signs at protests.
It is not a peace movement on our campuses. It is an antiAmerican war movement. They are pro-Palestinian war.
Islam is not a religion nor is it a cult. It is a complete system. Islam has religious, legal, political, economic and military components. The religious component is a beard for all the other components. Islamization occurs when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their so-called ‘religious rights'.
When politically correct and culturally diverse societies agree to ‘the reasonable’ Muslim demands for their ‘religious rights,’ they also get the other components under the table. Here’s how it works (percentages source CIA: The World Fact Book (2007)).
As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country they will be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to anyone. In fact, they may be featured in articles and films, stereotyped for their colorful uniqueness:
At 2% and 3% they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs:
From 5% on they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. They will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on their shelves — along with threats for failure to comply. (United States).
At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islam is not to convert the world but to establish Sharia law over the entire world. When Muslims reach 10% of the population, they will increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions (Paris –car-burnings). Any non-Muslim action that offends Islam will result in uprisings and threats (Amsterdam - Mohammed cartoons).
After reaching 20% expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings and church and synagogue burning:
At 40% you will find widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks and ongoing militia warfare:
From 60% you may expect unfettered persecution of non-believers and other religions, sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels:
After 80% expect State run ethnic cleansing and genocide:
100% will usher in the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ — the Islamic House of Peace — there’s supposed to be peace because everybody is a Muslim:
Of course, that’s not the case. To satisfy their blood lust, Muslims then start killing each other for a variety of reasons.
"Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the tribe against the world and all of us against the infidel."
– Leon Uris, ‘The Haj’.
It is good to remember that in many, many countries, such as France, the Muslim populations are centered around ghettos based on their ethnicity. Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. Therefore, they exercise more power than their national average would indicate.
Yea, this is a great flick. Watched it a few months ago. Everyone should really check it out - the connections between Nazism and current extremist thought are pretty scary.
It was interesting too to see that they had located footage of Hitler with Arafat’s uncle. So often it is the same grainy photo that is so high in contrast from poor sourcing and duping that it appears that it could be a fraud.
Moving pictures are a bit harder to forge.
Wow. Thanks for all the info and numbers. Interesting, albeit scary as hell.
Just added a book to my summer reading list.
The Suicide of Reason: Radical Islam's Threat to the West by Lee Harris
The Legacy of Jihad: Islamic Holy War and the Fate of Non-muslims by Andrew Bostom
Between the two of these volumes, you'll get a chilling picutre of Islam's awful, bloody history. And you'll also learn why Western civilization is at such risk. Islam was, is and will remain a mideval, murderous tyranny. Were Islam to depart from its dedication to the destruction or enslavement of non-believers, it would cease to be Islam.
That's why Islam must be utterly and completely destroyed, root and branch. The horrors, the atrocities, the mass murder and cruelty that Islam has visited upon this world make the Nazis look like a bunch of Cub Scouts. And if you think that I'm exaggerating, read Bostom's book.
