| Summary: | A documentary exploring what the writers feel are suppressed historical information about currently dominant and corrupt social institutions. Part One denounces the originality of many world religions, arguing they are mainly derived from astrological myths and traditions established long before them. It also argues that the historical Jesus is a literary and astrological hybrid, nurtured politically in the interest of control. Part Two asserts that the events of September 11th were either orchestrated by, or allowed to happen by, criminal elements within the United States government in order to generate mass fear, initiate and justify the War on Terror, provide a pretext for the denial of civil liberties to the general public, and produce economic gain. Finally, Part Three explores the history of federal central banks in the United States and asserts that they engineered the Great Depression to steal wealth from the American population, among other deeds. It also explores the possibility that there is a clandestine movement to merge the United States, Canada and Mexico into a North American Union that uses a single currency, and to eventually create one world government. |
