Works better if you have seen "Bowling For Columbine"

First of all, this is my first review, and I don't speak English very well, so...

Well, I like most of what Moore has done, and I think that this is not the better of him, and it doesn't deserve to won the Palme D'Or at all. But I still think that this one deserves to be watched. Moore is using here most of what he did explain (greatly) on "Bowling for Columbine". There he explain how assimilated is violence in the nowadays unitedstatian (I will not say American since America is a continent and not a country) society. Fahrenheit 9/11 works a lot with this, and how normal is for the unitedstatians to invade a country in the name of the freedom values, democracy values, and so on, which are actually the economic interests of a small private group that has no ethic and just want to take profits, like it happen on Vietnam, Chile, Afghanistan, Iraq, and many many others. I disagree with Moore in this movie, 'cause he's attributing most of this to the ineptitude of Bush, and this is not like that. A man as intelligent as Moore is, should have realized that the 9/11 attacks were done deliberately, or at least allowed, by Bush Government, in order to be able to invade countries and to steal their resources, just like the us always have done. So, Moore is putting first his political disagreement with Bush's party, instead of truth. I don't like that. If Moore were had been right about this, Obama's government would be a lot better, and it's actually worst than Bush's administration. Despite that, i liked this documentary, and there's a very funny scene of the movie, that pictures a retired old man, and how he is denounced by his partners for not being agree with the government, that, my friends, reflects how us citizens are living in a fascist regime, not barely close to a democratic nation.
