The Power of Nightmares

Have you seen it yet? Better than Fahrenheit 9-11. As we suspected, Al Qaeda doesn't exist. It's a neo-con wet dream. Thanks, Baz le Tuff for showing me this BBC documentary.

The Power of Nightmares

"A 2004 documentary series by Adam Curtis, "The Power of Nightmares; The Rise of the Politics of Fear seeks to overturn much of what is widely believed about Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida. The latter, it argues, is not an organised international network. It does not have members or a leader. It does not have "sleeper cells". It does not have an overall strategy. In fact, it barely exists at all, except as an idea about cleansing a corrupt world through religious violence." --Andy Beckett for The Guardian, 15 October 2004 (http://www.guardian.co.uk/terrorism/story/0,12780,1327904,00.html)"
