extrodanary film

Just finished watching a brilliant three-part, three-hour BBC documentary titled, "The Power of Nightmares: The Rise of the Politics of Fear." It originally aired in '04 just before our elections, and was just repeated on the BBC. (Friends in England highly recommended it, but not a single media outlet in the U.S. has had the courage to air it.)

Since the BBC refuses to issue it on DVD, the writer-director has made it available online from a number of outlets, with video quality ranging from excellent to lousy. Here are the best-quality links I was able to find:

Part I: Baby It's Cold Outside

Part II: The Phantom Victory

Part III: The Shadows in the Cave

It's a riveting examination of how we got into this mess, and who put us here. Well worth three hours of your time.

nobody said that you were looking for a debate, it's a forum where politics are discussed, thought you might be interested that's all.


I don't know if I could watch 3 hours of that video too long for me and my attention span
nobody is talking in the ledge
I'm not a tool, I use them though

weewee you are whacked, I'm not messing up my computer ckicking on any of your links

You can pretend its a Repulican conspiracy all you want, Al Queda is a terror network.

I think media hyping, like these BBC movies, are the bigger modern conspiracy against the people

I'm serious - we've turned the corner on January - I don't want to see childish pissing contests like this from you two...

Question

Exsqueeze me JohnR, but who mentioned anything about a pissing contest?

I am seriously confused here ... I post something here in jest and then someone thinks I am jumping down his throat?

What's with all the defensiveness? Eben why are you so jumpy all of a sudden?

Hellooo? Where did all the love go? What the hell happened to this place?

Somebody, anybody?

Ben - use your regular FWW account. One account only.

Who says it's a pissing contest - surely looks like the start to one. If you two are all lovey - then share the . I didn't see much "love" in this thread. I don't want to see things go south on this.

What happened? It's Winter, we are all jonesing a little, and stirring schnit for some, uhh, release, may be good for you but not be the best way for everyone to have some fun.

to get this thread back on track, those 3 links are a BBC series. there is no conspiracy theory, no finger pointing... its just a mini series that simply points out things that happened in the past that led both us and the muslims to where we are now. thats it. plain and simple

Geezus I goof on you guys and all this political "one-upsman-ship".And thats exactly what it is.Its all point of view.

Put a crackhead and a straightedger in the same room and ask them to debate the pros and cons of 1oz of crack.

Crackhead:"Its 1oz of crack!

Straightedger:"Its 1oz of crack!"

Relax guys.It was Bill's fault,it is GW's fault and it will probably be Billary's fault!
