Jewish Group Behind Obsession Movie Distributed in Swing States


The Clarion Fund, a nonprofit group, circulated 28 million free copies of the movie "Obsession: Radical Islam's War Against the West." Three Jewish leaders comprise the officers of the group. It shares the same New York City address as a Jerusalem based group focused on Israel's national security.

The two year old nonprofit spent an estimated $50 million to influence the election. John McCain is the intended beneficiary. What impact will the movie have? Will the American vote be manipulated by a group concerned about Israel's security? Given their difficulty in convincing American Jews, how might their message work?
