The End Of America [AVI - Naomi Wolf - Steps To Facism]

The End Of America ------------------ In a stunning indictment of sweeping policy changes during the Bush years, best-selling author Naomi Wolf (The Beauty Myth) makes a chilling case that American democracy is under threat. Investigating parallels between our current situation and the rise of dictators and fascism in once-free societies, Wolf uncovers a number of deeply unsettling similarities-from the use of paramilitary groups and secret prisons to the targeted suspension of the rule of law. With this galvanizing call to arms based on her recent book, she urges regular citizens to take back our legacy of freedom and justice. In The End of America: A Letter of Warning to a Young Patriot, Wolf takes a historical look at the rise of Fascism, outlining the 10 steps necessary for a Fascistic group (or government) to destroy the democratic character of a nation-state and subvert the social/political liberty previously exercised by its citizens: 1) Invoke a terrifying internal and external enemy. 2) Create secret prisons where torture takes place. 3) Develop a thug caste or paramilitary force not answerable to citizens. 4) Set up an internal surveillance system. 5) Harass citizens' groups. 6) Engage in arbitrary detention and release. 7) Target key individuals. 8) Control the press. 9) Treat all political dissidents as traitors. 10) Suspend the rule of law. The book details how this pattern was implemented in Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and elsewhere, and analyzes its emergence and application in American political affairs since the September 11 attacks.

Wow. It's been a year after Bush has gone, and the lefty, socialist windbags are still trotting out the ol' Bush=Fascism tripe. I could hardly stomach watching this intellectually dishonest piece of poorly made American hating propaganda.
And I'm a Canadian!
I defend her right to make this crap, as many of her friends, I'm sure would not be so kind to me.
She likens the steps take by the Bush regieme (Sorry...) to combat terrorism as some great fascistic plot to take over. Wolfy just forgot one thing. The Annointed One has taken over. It's all good now.
Except nothing's changed. Why is that Ms. Wolf? And where is the outcry? And why do you harken by to Hitler, and Mao and Pinochet, but never to Castro or Aukminoshab (Whatever that guy is in Iran.) You want real fascism? Go there. Don't play such petty politics. Yes there were abuses. You can name the same ones that continually made the news. Name some more... We're waiting...
Exactly.
Highly recommended as a prime example of leftist politics in America.
She is an America-hater.
Herkimer.
Ann Coulter or Laura Ingraham would eat her alive!

@Herkimer - sad to say, but you don't know the meaning of Facism if you think that Mao, Castro, Pinochet, and Ahmadenijad are facists. Facism is corporate rule via the gov't. Mao and Castro were communists, and I can't speak for the other 2.
Facts are stubborn things, arent they, eh?

Thank you for this video. The book was important and I anticipate the video will be just as good. Ms. Wolf may be critiqued for not always being as thorough as one may hope in distinguishing between the facts and her evaluation of those facts - she is not a journalist - but she has insight and understanding worth hearing and her thesis is, I believe, essentially correct.
