Islamist Influence in Hollywood - Paperback

by Deborah Weiss Esq (Author)

In her new monograph published by the Center for Security Policy, Deborah Weiss, attorney, expert on Islamist censorship, and newly minted Senior Fellow with the Center, reveals the efforts by Islamist organizations to manipulate Hollywood movies and independent films through censorship, propaganda and disinformation. Organizations that have a politicized agenda to whitewash Islamic terrorism and its totalitarian political-religious ideology known as Sharia, have targeted the film-making industry in order to shape young minds and control the public narrative on critical issues of the day.
