True to its title, the focus is on the War on Terror decade and looks forward to one very funny and gross possible outcome where the garbage loving "roach people" are left behind instead of WALL-E type robots.
If used in high-school history classes as a starting point for reviewing the War on Terror decade, it will make an excellent starting point to pique student interest and check what is and is not fact.
As a film, it's too short. As a cartoon/comedy network special, it's too long. Either needs to be cut a bit or have about 10-15 minutes of additional story and character development. It assumes the viewer knows a lot already, so avoids rehashing things that the attention span deficit generation might find beneficial to rehash. As a starting point for history research, however, it creates questions in an amusing way which is why it seems good for high-school (maybe a little too adult for earlier grades).
