A must see for anybody who is not completely ignorant toward U.S. reality.

Rush to War is director Robert Taicher's cinematic search for truth in the U.S.-led war on terrorism.
This documentary attempts to provide historical, social, and political contexts to the events of 9/11 and highlights the callousness, brutality, and hegemonic intentions of U.S. foreign policy decisions since the Second World War.

The film features commentators, journalists, government officials, and political activists, such as Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, Scott Ritter, George McGovern, Chris Hedges, Molly Ivins, Jerry Falwell, Richard Clark, Joe Wilson, and others.

The film examines the Bush Administration's investment in neo-conservatism and examines aspects of the current situation of American foreign policy.
Hijacking Catastrophe then documents the Pentagon and White House process of disinformation, exaggeration, and media-supported propaganda between 9-11 and America's March 2003 invasion of Iraq.
The film also describes the cost of empire in a way so comprehensive that it becomes clear that neo-conservatism, as a foreign policy guide, comes with a very real moral, political and financial garnishment of every American, and of American children yet unborn. The cost is shown not only as a current financial outlay or in lives unlived on the part of soldiers and marines, but in terms of an alarming debt burden, loss of domestic freedom, the growing and invasive state, a permanent tattering of the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
