The novel 1984 by George Orwell is an exaggerated and unrealistic story, blown out of proportion to seek people’s attention and alarm the world of the dangers of a totalitarian society. The novel takes place in a world where no personal freedoms exist and the government, known as the Party in 1984, has no hesitation to lie to Oceania and its people. It’s those lies that allow the Party to maintain dictatorial control over Oceania. Some people believe the United States has lied about some government acts, such as September 11, 2001. Blurry and fuzzy images, quotes taken out of context, and sketchy eyewitnesses influenced many theories which include: that the world trade center was demolished by bombs, phone calls from the planes were faked, George W. Bush secretly profited from the attack, the Pentagon was struck by a missile, and several other theories. Like September 11, 2001, Oceania’s people question their government. Was September 11, 2001 a false flag operation conducted by the United States? Did the United States lie to its own people like Oceania to increase the government’s power? Evidence has been found and proven to support the idea of the attacks on 9/11 were carried out by the United States of America. If the United States really did plot September 11, 2001 it would not be the first time a government attempted to use false flag operations to increase their power and to help justify events. Adolph Hitler once stated “terrorism is the best political weapon for nothing drives people harder than a fear of sudden death.” In 1939 Nazi Germany pursued an international propaganda campaign accusing Polish officers of organizing ethnic cleansing of Germans living in Poland. The creative scheme was known as Operation Himmler, n... ... middle of paper ... ...s believe it was attack carried out by the United States of America. Personally, I do not ever think the public will find the full truth about what exactly took place on September 11, 2001. If every detail about our government and its acts were released to the public, there is no doubt our country would fall apart.

  • 1984, by George Orwell and the USA Patriot Act

    1923 Words  | 4 Pages

    The novel, 1984, written by George Orwell, gives readers an insight to a possible frightening future where one government has complete and definite control of the people. But “control” might not be the term to describe such a rule. The Party dominates every aspect of life. There is not a single thing that is not under the Party’s rule. Feelings, history, language, statistics, and even human nature are submissive to the Party. They corrupt the mind so much that there is no longer a line that separates truth from a lie. Slogans are repeated through telescreens on a daily basis so the people are gradually forced to believe in illogical statements. Upon first glance, it may seem that a 1984 society is not even imaginable in the world we live in currently. But is it really logical to make such an assumption so quickly? Do we know that what we see on the news and read in our history textbooks is completely accurate? The Internet is one of the most powerful technologies our world has, consisting of an insurmountable amount of information, which is not always what it seems. Ultimately, there are so many things that we do not know, some of which is being held a secret from us. Modern day society shockingly has evidence of a transformation into a menacing 1984 society because of similar government actions and abuse of advanced technology.

  • Lawrence Wright's "The Looming Tower"

    Following the devastating terrorist attacks of September 11th, 2001, the Unites States found itself in a search for answers and revenge against those that had brought about this atrocity. The attack that has been compared to that of Pearl-Harbor elevated the tracking and collecting of terrorism from barely a priority, to the forefront of the American radar. I honestly believe that terrorism as the #1 priority is destined to remain at the top for the foreseeable future. The elemental thoughts on almost all American minds following the attacks were who had the strength and capability to could carry out such an attack on a country with the world’s strongest military and what led to their focus to attack the Untied States: In short, who attacked us, and why do they hate us? The Untied States formed a bi-partisan 9/11 Commission was formed to trace the roots of Al-Qa’ida, investigate the history of the 19 hijackers, examine missed opportunities of law enforcement officials to avert the disaster, and make recommendations to clean up the faulty incoherent intelligence-gathering operation. The 500+ page 9/11 Commission Report contained thirteen chapters of historical narratives, analysis and recommendations. All ten members of the bi-partisan commission signed off on the report, which has arguably become a national historical document. Just as the 9/11 Commission was created to find answers and recommend necessary follow steps to ensure history doesn’t repeat itself, Lawrence Wright sought answers as to why 3000 American lives were lost in the attacks on September 11th. An experienced traveler to the region, Lawrence Wright endeavored to do his own investigative study into the history, ideology and circumstances behind this large-...

  • Government Power in 1984, by George Orwell

    1058 Words  | 3 Pages

    The book 1984, by George Orwell is based on the theory of “Big Brother” and how he is always watching you. In the book, the Oceania government controls their citizens by saying and ordering them into not doing certain things. Which then forced their citizens to deceive their government by going in to hiding. When Pearl Harbor was attacked in 1941, Japanese-Americans were ordered to do certain things as well. Both of these two events prove that the government can force their citizens to do anything under their power. I think some parts of the government abuse the right of their power and manipulate their citizens into doing unlawful events.

  • 1984 a Novel by George Orwell

    The novel 1984, by George Orwell, made me paranoid. It made me suspicious of our government's power and intentions. I became aware of the potential manipulation which the government could impose upon us. I came to see that the people I believe to be wholly dedicated to the well-being of society, the people I rely so heavily on to provide protection and security have the power to betray us at any given time. I realised that in my naivety I had gravely overlooked the powerful grip government has over society, and what it can do with that power.

  • Metaphysics In George Orwell's 1984

    1008 Words  | 3 Pages

    The novel 1984 is one that has sparked much controversy over the last several decades. It harbors many key ideas that lie at the root of all skepticism towards the book. With the ideas of metaphysics, change, and control in mind, George Orwell wrote 1984 to provide an interesting story but also to express his ideas of where he believed the world was heading. His ideas were considered widely ahead of their time, and he was really able to drive home how bleak and colorless our society really is. Orwell wrote this piece as a futuristic, dystopian book which contained underlying tones of despair and deceit.

    On September 11, 2001 the World Trade Center buildings one and two were attacked. However, who we were attacked by and even if we were attacked is a hard decision to make. There have been many different claims about how everything on that fateful day happened. There are facts that we know are true, though; Flight 11 flew into the North Tower at eight forty- six in the morning. Soon after, Flight 175 attacked the South Tower. By the end of the day, both towers had collapsed and other hijacked flights had caused damage. The amount of lives lost on September 11 was substantial; 2,749 people from eighty-three different countries died from the attacks (Facts about the attacks…, n.d.). All in all, America was changed forever.

    766 Words  | 2 Pages

    Orwell's allegorical critique of Stalinism in 1984 is often used in capitalist nations as a poignant literary attack on Communism and other collectivist economic and political systems. The argument often follows the lines of "This is socialism, and as you can see, it doesn't work and just leads to oppression. We're in a nice capitalist democracy, therefore we are better off." But is that conclusion the truth?

  • The Importance Of Totalitarian Government In 1984

    1302 Words  | 3 Pages

    The totalitarian government in the novel “1984” is well-known for going to extreme measures to control its citizens. The party is capable of doing so by controlling how citizens communicate, employing technology and even dictating how their time is spent. One of the novel’s many themes is: the party believes a human being can be broken down psychologically until one is easily fooled or robot-like. However, regardless of how harsh a government treats its citizens the novel also suggests that it is significantly hard to brainwash someone. The government has to go to incredible lengths to get into one’s mind to that extent. This creates a difficult task because the Party’s methods are subtle and take time. Winston, throughout the entirety of 1984,

    ... Sept. 11th, 2001, terrorist attack on theWorld Trade Center and the unreliability of U.S. intelligence onWeapons of mass Destruction in Iraq have been a focus of intense scrutiny in the U.S. in 2004 particularly in the context of the 9/11 Commision , the continuing armed resistance against U.S. occupation of Iraq, and the widely perceived need for systematic review of the respective roles of the CIA, FBI and the Defense Intelligence Agency. On July 9th, 2004 the Senate report of Pre-war Intelligenceon Iraq of the Senate Intelligence Committe stated that the CIA described the danger presented by Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq in an unreasonable way, largely unsupported by the available intelligence. In a briefing held Sept 15th, 2001 George Tenet presented the Worldwide Attack Matrix, a "top-secret" document describing covert CIA anti-terror operations in 80 countries in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. The actions, underway or being recommended, would range from "routine propaganda to lethal covert action in preparation for military attacks". The plans, if carried out, "would give the CIA the broadest and most lethal authority in its history".

  • The Similarities Between 1984 And Gaddaffi's

    995 Words  | 2 Pages

    The similarities in the book 1984 by George Orwell and the reign of Muammar Al-Gaddafi are quite extensive. Muammar did not start out as a very affluent man, but his wealth grew along with his cruelty. He took a stand to rise to power. But, sometimes taking a stand doesn’t end with positive effects. In fact, this desire to rise to power took an absolute turn for the worst; but to Gaddafi, he was living his dream. 1984 also exhibits how good intentions can turn horribly wrong in the blink of an eye. Oppressive behavior is shown throughout 1984, as well. Their main goal was control people’s minds in order to have a perfect society, but perfect societies do not exist.. Gaddafi’s reign and 1984 show the undying thirst of a ruler to have power, and ultimately this thirst was not quenched until lives were ruined and people’s livelihood was put at stake; this
