The movie begins with the following statement: This is a film about radical Islamic terror. A dangerous ideology, fueled by religious hatred. It's important to remember most Muslims are peaceful and do not support terror. This is not a film about them. This is a film about a radical worldview, and the threat it poses to us all, Muslim and non-Muslim alike. The film uses many images from Arab TV, provided by the Middle East Media Research Institute and Palestinian Media Watch.
