JIHADSPLOITATION!!!!

July 26th, 2006

It’s time, Exploding onto your TV and Big Screen! The 9-11 deconstructionists have been signaled to come out from under their money-hungry caves to give their opinion on current events. Now that we’ve had the afterschool special of United 93, that treats the 9-11 story intimately and with care.

Now we have Oliver Stone running to the box office with Nick Cage and Maggie Gyllenhaal in WORLD TRADE CENTER! You know the truth, now see the conspiracy! Now, I know Nick’s a Stone whore, but Damn, Maggie, tell me it isn’t so. Having loved Maggie in Secretary, I regret to see her involved with this - but shrug! I’ll forgive her.

And before, we had the tasteful Black Hawk Down detailing the horrible events of Somalia.

Officially, I say that we need a name for these type of movies - we’ve heard of Blaxsploitation, but I name these as JihadSploitation - the exploitations of the events of terror and Islamic Fundamentalism. We’re going to see more of these.

We’ve already seen Gangsta Rap meets Islamic fundies.

Anger hides itself as empowerment, forging action - unwise, willingness-to-hurt action. And the problem with anger is that we need catharsis for our anger to burn out. So when we have Jihadsploitation appeal to people the was Gangsta Rap, I suspect we’re gonna have some more anger to burn through.

Or explode.

Note: a thanks to Stu for the name of this article.
