Robert and Franklin: Star Wars reflects neoconservative foreign policy. The neoconservative movement was started by Irving Kristol in the 1960s. Neoconservatism is linked to religious conservatism, strict moral views The Force and the Empire/Rebellion dualities reflect strict moral viewpoints of neoconservatism Violent conflict in Star Wars reflects the militaristic agenda of the neoconservative movement

Matt: In both Star Wars and during the Cold War, civilian casualties were not considered worthy of attention. For example, civilian deaths were considered acceptable, but unmentionable, during the twenty years of instability from 1960 to 1980 in El Salvador. Additionally, collateral damage as a result of the coup in Iran was not considered. Furthermore the extermination of East Timorese was considered unnewsworthy. Terrorism stems from funding Mujahidin in Afghanistan during the Cold War.
