After viewing the documentary titled "One day in September" my opinion was not only formed but it was transformed. I am perplexed with many actions by both the Palestine terrorists and the German government. Nationalism was seen through out the movie, first beginning with the Palestine terrorists whom would fight and give up anything for their country. I feel that the nationalism was most prominent when the one of the men in the documentary said he would take part in the attack and after the fact was happy with the results and would not take it back. I think that this statement alone defines how attached and forefront people can be for what they believe in. Another form of nationalism was viewed when the German government gave up the terrorists in order to form unity and peace. Not only did they want unity and peace for themselves but so that their national would be safe, showing dignity and domination. I feel sick and oppresive after watching the documentary because how can those who attack and kills others be released with no punishment or conclusion for their actions? How can a nation give up and forgive with out any comprehension? I do not understand this and I do not like it because it proves, again, that natinalism is very powerful and can move across borders father than any one could imagine. I feel as though the documentary was great, thrilling and exciting but I am very upset by the images at the end. Those images of the dead offer no comfort or resolution for what happend on this September day. I can not comment anymore on this considering the act established nothing and it created war and not for any gain. I feel as if nationalism can be very influential and this is very powerful and may lead to terrifying results in the future.
