[edit]Author does not approve or reject the ideas presented here. These are one of many possible interpretations, which can be done of the movie. With no possible consensus of what is 'true' intended meaning. Even if the writer(s) himself accept or reject a meaning some might say it was not given in 'good faith'. So the 'true' meaning will always be subject to speculation. Author does not recommend any reader to accept any of the ideas given under. Accepting these meanings can result in unjustified 'hate' only on the basis of very doubtful suspicions/theories.
Introduction
[edit]Matrix movie because of its abstraction and ideas, have caused several people to discuss the ideas presented in the movie. Specially philosophy of real and unreal. Some people have attempted to explain which idea in the movie is abstraction of some idea outside the movie. For example comparing 'Father and the Son' concept in Christian thoughts to sacrifice made by neo for machine God. This article also tries to find similarities between the movie and religious believes /histories. Mostly including Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Some connections to Hinduism can also be found specially regarding Gandhi.

- With passage of time non-Jews got powerful.
- Christianity originated in Jerusalem.
- As non-Jews grew powerful Jews were mostly defeated by them. (Romans/Egyptians)
- Jews first time started to fight back under mosses.
- During this first fight back, the Nile was divided into two. When river was about to combine, jews were out of the river and non-Jews (Egyptians) were unable to escape the river. They drowned in the river.

Now Interpreting
[edit]Equivalence
[edit]Here are the possible equitant of assumptions in real world.
- Force1 can be considered to be jews.
- Force2 can be considered to be non-Jews (mostly Christian, excluding Muslims)
- Force3 can be considered to be Muslims.
- Golden time was when Jews were dominant force.
- Rise1 can be considered when non-Jews got powerful.
- 'False Convincing' or 'conversion 1' can be equitant to the conversion of jews to Christianity.
- True believers can be equitant to those Jews who truly believed in Judaism. (Zionist?)
- Fight Back1 can be considered as fight of Jews against Egyptians under Mosses. (With charging river of Nile as subway, in which when it came close Neo escaped but its enemy was left to be taken by subway)
- 'Conversion 2' can be considered as conversion to Islam.
- Conversion Spread1' can be considered to earlier spread of islam.
- 'Migration 2' might be considered as Jewish migration to Palestine when Islam spread (not sure of this part of history).
- 'Supporter1' Can be equivalent to pro-Zionist in Christian world.
- 'one of the oldest part of Force2' can be considered as 'Britain'
- 'objecter1' is the gandhi and his fellow Indian politicians who objected presence of immigrant jews in Palestine.
- Deal1 can be considered as independence of India.
- 'New Generation' can be considered equivalent to current Indian generation which is quite pro-Israel.
- Spread of Islam in Western countries can be thought equivalent to 'Conversion Threat1'.
- Support of U.S (and some other countries) to Israel can be considered equivalent to support1'
- 1948/1967 Arab Israel wars can be considered equivalent to 'Victory1'
Taking as a whole
[edit]If you have seen the movie and have knowledge of history, assumptions can be connected to 'Historic events' by equivalences. Rest is quite easy. If any body will like to describe them he can write it here.
Further equivalences can be found like spread of Islam in India etc.
Conspiracy Theories
[edit]If these are connected in this way following (very improbable not recommended to be believed on by the author) conspiracy theories can be resulted.
- Christians only supported Zionism so they can separate the 'True believer' Jews from rest. Rest are who might be of Jewish descend but don't believe in Judaism or don't know their descent. If 'True believers' are not separated they might make entire system unstable.
- Next planed step of Christians after creation of Israel was to destroy it.
- They Only supported Israel so it can help them stop spread of Islam.
Important Note
[edit]It's once again suggested that non of them is true. They are only assumption very abstract assumption. Similar abstract assumption might lead to different results. So there is no reason to believe that authors of the film had any intentions to project such an idea. This interpretation is similar to interpretations of abstract art, in which different observers may interpret differently from what original author meant. A branch of philosophy/Logic/linguistic also exists which carries such idea. Which is once an statement is made it no longer has any connection with the author. Sentence it self might be interpreted in different 'true' senses regardless of what the original author actually meant. I currently don't remember exact name of the theory, neither I correctly remember which branch it belongs. Read it somewhere on wikipedia. This exercise is merely to interpret different ideas differently in the concept of 'thought for the sake of thought'. It shouldn't be at all intercepted as real.
