Fahrenheit 9/11

In the end, the american soldiers who are fighting the war in Iraq, speak out and let us know what is really going on in Iraq. You get to hear from people you don't normally hear from, such as the widows, bereaved, and military families of those in Iraq. You will also learn and see some disturbing footage which has never been seen in the national news media of critically wounded american soldiers and Iraqi civilians.

Other mistake: Fahrenheit asserts that Saddam's Iraq was a nation that "had never attacked the United States. A nation that had never threatened to attack the United States. A nation that had never murdered a single American citizen." The government of Iraq under Saddam permitted a terrorist named Abu Nidal who is certainly responsible for killing an American named Leon Klinghoffer to have Iraq as a safe haven; if Saddam Hussein funded suicide bombers in Israel, including one who did kill 5 Americans in one attack in 2003; if the Iraqi police - now this is not a murder but it's a plan to murder - to assassinate President Bush Sr. which at the time merited airstrikes from President Clinton once that plot was discovered; doesn't that invalidate the claim that the Iraqi government of Saddam never murdered an American or never had a hand in murdering an American.

Trivia: Watch closely in the part of the film where scenes of Iraqi boys appear...there is a boy riding a bike, the same scene used in the System of A Down videoclip "boom".

Question: I would like to know why Michael Moore named this film Fahrenheit 9/11. I know that the 9/11 is about the twin towers terrorist attack, but I can't get the Fahrenheit part. Could someone please explain?

Answer: It's a reference to the book Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, which deals with a totalitarian society where people are not encouraged to think for themselves, question the government and so forth. One of the features of this society is that all books are burnt (hence the title - apparently the temperature at which paper will ignite).
