A pseudodocumentary claiming Muslims seek global domination was used as police training material.
Evidence
The propaganda video The Third Jihad, which was shown to New York City police officers as part of their training, demonstrates this overlap between the new McCarthyites and the security establishment. The list of interviewees for this pseudodocumentary included not just right-wing Islamophobes but also figures such as New York City police commissioner Ray Kelly, former New York City mayor Rudolph Giuliani, former CIA director James Woolsey, former head of Homeland Security Tom Ridge, and Connecticut senator Joe Lieberman. — Deepa Kumar, Islamophobia and the Politics of Empire, 683
