A 2009 film by talk-show host and director Alex Jones, “The Obama Deception,” is a two-hour DVD that has just lately been re-released on YouTube. ”The Obama Deception” is a movie that claims to follow the tracks of the “New World Order.” Some believers say that “The Obama Deception” is complete truth, others say it is a proven-invalid conspiracy theory.
The basic argument of ‘The Obama Deception’
You will find hundreds of individual arguments laid out in “The Obama Deception”. The basic crux of the argument is that President Obama is “a hoax carefully crafted by the captains of The New World Order… the international banks plan to loot the individuals of the United States and turn them into slaves.”
The financial claims of ‘The Obama Deception’
As outlined by “The Obama Deception,” banks are behind plots and plans to take over governments. Banks are an easy scapegoat and villain, since the banking system failure is large within the minds of most. Alex Jones has named the “head” of this organization called the “New World Order” as various different agencies other than banks – in other writings, it has been FEMA, the United Nations, even “America and England.” In short, if the global financial system is truly the head of the “New World Order,” as Jones claims, this is a change from his other movies, shows, and interviews.
Following the money
Along with most other conspiracy theories, “The Obama Deception” asks you to “follow the money.” It is very important, though, to do the exact exact same thing on both sides. Alex Jones is a wealthy talk-show host, movie producer and author. Once a year for the last few years, Jones sets up a “money bomb” on his website. Each time, these “money bombs” raise about $ 250,000, but Jones never seems to reach his stated goal:
“Alex will use this money to build a studio, a sound stage, purchase cameras and equipment, computers, expand office space and hire additional staff. Alex hopes to launch a new television show on the Dish Network, thus reaching thousands, possibly millions of additional individuals…”
Truth to be found in ‘The Obama Deception’?
”The Obama Deception” claims hundreds of different arguments. Deciding any argument is best done by researching both sides on your own. No matter what you believe, taking all arguments in financial, social and political context will give you a more complete view. There are numerous quotations and statistics within the movie that are, at best, incredibly questionable. All conspiracy theories, including “The Obama Deception,” have to be taken with a grain of salt.
