Page 12 OBSESSION By Caitlin Olszewski Lion's Eye Staff Writer j1d457@psu.edu Directed by Wayne Kop- ping, Obsession: Radical Islam's War Against the West is a highly contro- versial documentary. The film gives the viewer an appalling perspective on the war in the Middle East and the culture that is breeding hate. . The film provides an inside view of the Radical Islamists’ brain- washing techniques against fellow 5 Muslims and their absolute hatred for. ~~ = the West, America and anyone that | practices Judaism. For Radical Mus- lims, resistance and alienation from - Western Civilization allows them to retain their cultural identity as well as their Islamic community. The justification of their terroristic actions is that Radical Islams are expecting the coming of the Messiah and plan to wipe out all Western influence in their world as an act of Allah. Most of the film is footage obtained from Arab television where children as young as seven years old are saying things such as, “I hope Bush dies in flames and I want to go to Ariel Sharon and kill him with a gun and stab him with a sword, because of all the poor Palestinians.” Obsession introduces the similarity of the media in Arab nations to Nazi propaganda and parallels the current Radical Islam rebellion with the beginnings of the Nazi movement. Being raised in a fun- damentalist Islamic society, children are shown movies of Bush portrayed as Satan and the Statue of Liberty as the Grim Reaper. In an attempt to brainwash and create animosity towards the West, an Islamic news reporter stated on television, “A British teenager tore out an elderly woman’s heart after he stabbed her and drank her blood. There are people in the West who are enthusiastic about drinking elderly people’s blood.” Overall, the film provides a horrific new insight of the Middle Eastern world. By showing real life footage and propaganda, it shows the shocking truth of a rising rebellion that has the potential to be greater than the Nazi movement.

The subject matter and prem- ise of this show is ridiculously offen- sive. But at the same time, you can’t help but laugh. Be it trying to score women at an abortion rally, watering down beer so they can let underage kids drink at their bar, having sex with a friends mother, exploiting religious miracles, trying out for the Philadelphia Eagles, finding a baby in a dumpster, and lastly convincing someone they are eating human meat. " For those of you do not know the show, it’s based around a group of friends who own a bar in Philadelphia who do everything to benefit themselves at everyone else’s expense.

From little antique trinkets to do it yourself project tips, the craft vendor seemed to please the crowds just as much as the food vendor and restaurants. But at the end of the day all good this have to come to and end, and so too did the restaurant festival. As the crowds thinned out restaurant and merchant vendors packed up their booths, distance shouts of “See you next year” from all the vendors filled the air.

From beginning to end, the crowd went wild, jumping around, singing at the top of their lungs and knocking each ‘other around. Between each song, Anthony would throw in comments about the heat and the crowd in the middle of the set, at one point he exclaimed, “The safety word is pancakes, if I say pancakes, whether we’re in the middle of a song or not, get me the hell out of here.” The show was spectacular for such a small venue and cheap ticket prices. Anyone reading this should definitely check out the church if they’re looking for a good concert to attend.
