Fahrenheit 9/11 Fahrenheit 9/11 directed by Michael Moore is a documentary film that premiered in movie theaters around the world during June of 2004. The film’s foremost basis is that US President George W. Bush is, and has been from the start of his term, unfit for office and does not act in the interests of the American people. It is a no-holds-barred attack on the Bush management’s handling of the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the War on Terror.

The third and final point Michael Moore talks about is the war in Iraq, broadcasting how the American administration persuaded the American people to send the young and poor to fight a war deriving from many lies. Predominantly, this is military recruitment, which will be focused throughout the remainder of the paper.
Military recruiters seem to have better luck finding willing recruits in the areas of town where the economy is suffering. In 2002, the No Child Left Behind Act being passed has meant that US schools which receive money from the government must allow the military in to talk to students about participating in the military. In the UK, between a third and a half of all new military recruits are under 18, with many uniting together after meeting recruiters at their schools. This leads to the social and economical factors that dictate where the recruiters will
