The Power of Nightmares
I apologize if this is a dupe. Bartcop posted Marc Perkel's page with these BBC videos explaining the rise of the Islamists and Neoconservatives. Some here might not have had a chance to view them. The videos are done very well, and hats off to Mr. Perkel for providing them.

When you click the link, you'll see other links with three separately titled videos. You might want to download them first and/or burn to a CD in order to save on bandwidth

al-Qaeda is Fiction - The organization doesn't exist as a large terrorist organization

2. From the part I've seen of this I'd say it's a very thought-provoking doc-
-umentory. For another take on early Islamic Brotherhood history and connections you might want to check out Dave Emory. There's an archive of his broadcast here:http://wfmu.org/playlists/DX

3. Yup. Watched this about six months ago. Really spills the beans.
About all of the manufactured "boogeymen" we've been manipulated with by our government for decades.

4. If you download only one video series in your life, this should be it
I'm serious.

I wish we could get this shown on PBS, but it would cause too many neocons to burst blood vessels, and then where would Bushboy's donor base come from?

8. i.e. Emmanuel Goldstein dog & pony show
The ISI payoff is pretty blatant. They're on Bushler's payroll.
