The Power of Nightmares

I just finished watching Adam Curtis' "The Power of Nightmares", a 2004 documentary that originally aired on BBC covering the effect Islamic radicals and neo-conservatives have had on the world over the past 30 years. You can watch the film here on Google Video. It's three parts, one hour each, but goes by quickly.

The film paints a clear picture of the fantasy thought processes that American's current administration has embraced as their ideology, an ideology that was successful in rallying the American people behind their dream of invading Iraq. At the risk of sounding too political, I'll stop now and close by saying: watch that documentary.
