(Reposting from 11/22: I first saw this documentary mentioned at Wealth Bondage, then my buddy Paul told me the international students in his apartment complex were sharing downloaded versions, so I sought out an online version and, of course, the great folks at Information Clearinghouse have come through again making all three parts available. Of course the biggest thanks are due to the BBC who aired this three part documentary. As the Happy Tutor states, Can you imagine this being aired on US TV?)
Should we be worried about the threat from organised terrorism or is it simply a phantom menace being used to stop society from falling apart?
Watch pt.1--The Power of Nightmares: Baby Its Cold Outside
The Power of Nightmares continues its assessment of whether the threat from a hidden and organised terrorist network is an illusion. Part two, the Phantom Victory looks at how two groups, radical Islamists and neo-conservatives with seemingly opposing ideologies came together to defeat a common enemy.
Watch Pt. 2--The Power of Nightmares: The Phantom Victory
The Power of Nightmares assesses whether the threat from a hidden and organised terrorist network is an illusion. In the concluding part of the series, the programme explains how the illusion was created and who benefits from it.
Watch Pt. 3--The Power of Nightmares: Shadows in the Cave
For those that don't have the technology to watch it--here are the transcripts

I just finished reading Part 1. These people are completely insane.
Which world are they trying to keep from falling apart, ours or theirs?
Surely a rhetorical question. Maybe there ought to be a movement on blogs to post nothing but this documentary until the mainstream press is forced to pick it up.
Mimus,
They are not protecting my world and yes, I agree, they are very scary...
Anonymous,
I have sent this documentary to everyone I know, I have linked and posted it--lets just keep spreading the word ... I would hope that it is soon available on DVD in the US so I can teach it in my classes.
FYI, the "Power of Nightmares" transcripts are moving to a new address. The new URL for the first page of transcripts is:
