As the scene continues, we see that George Bush utters the words: “fool me once, … shame on you …”. But his sentence remains incomplete.
What does this phrase mean? These phrases primarily refer to a famous speech by George W. Bush the core of which was: “There’s an old saying in Tennessee … I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee … that says, fool me once, shame on … shame on you. Fool me … you can’t get fooled again.”
As you can see, George Bush mentioned an incomplete proverb that made the audience laugh! At the end of this section, we will make that proverb more complete. The saying goes like this: “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.” Why does this proverb convey that if you fool me twice, shame on me? Because everyone has to learn from being deceived the first time and not to commit the same error again. Otherwise, they themselves will be to blame.Of course, George Bush forgot the saying at the end of the speech, but in the end, he said its meaning.
This proverb may not make much sense to us, but it should. It has some very important notions behind it in the second layer. The Masonic director and Illuminati member delivers an ultimatum to the audience on the pretext of Satan in the second layer. He says if you were deceived once, it is I who should be ashamed and blamed. However, if you were deceived many times, you will be blamed for it and the blame will be on you.
It is interesting that such treatment of his followers by Satan was also foretold in verses of the Holy Quran! In verse 16 of surah Al Hashr of the Holy Quran, it is said: “[The hypocrites are] like the example of Satan when he says to man, “Disbelieve.” But when he disbelieves, he says, “Indeed, I am disassociated from you. Indeed, I fear Allah, Lord of the worlds.” Therefore, through an English proverb used in an internationally acclaimed animation, the same implication is being presented to the audience.
Therefore, in this part as well, the crafty director of the animation, warns people on behalf of his own master Satan: If you were fooled once, you can blame Satan! But if you have been deceived several times, you are to blame. So here again, as the Holy Quran has pointed out, Satan does not accept the responsibility of deceiving his followers.
In addition to what has been said, there is another important element in this scene, the purple chair on which George W. Bush sits. The important thing about this chair is that a year after the 9/11 attacks, a purple ribbon was put up on the chair that George Bush was sitting on in the classroom at the time of the 9/11 attacks, to act as a reminder of the attacks. Therefore, the purple color of this chair is not without reason in the animation “I Pet Goat 2”.
In addition, the writing on George Bush’s hat is also purple, and we see the emphasis on the purple in other images and other sections of the animation. 1
