please help - looking for dvd re neocons

Edited on Mon May-30-05 03:39 PM by ellenfl

a month or so ago, i saw a report on tv (probably sundance, ifc or one of the 'true' stations) that explained the neocon movement and pnac. it showed the principals orchestrating/advising the agression in the middle east. many of the members are prominent jewish-americans.

i would like to purchase this dvd but have not been able to find it. does anyone know what the title might be or where i can look?

1. Could it have been the Power of Nightmares?

That was a three part documentary aired by BBC last Fall. I think it was shown at a film festival in San Francisco this last spring...

That documentary goes into the rise of the Neocons.

how do i download and copy? can i copy using my cdr/w drive?

i'm not sure this is the same film. the one i saw had about an hour devoted to pnac/neocons and i remember a wealthy jewish-american couple highlighted. this was the first time i became aware that the neocons and the christian right were not the same. much of the hour-long discussion that i saw regarded imperialism in the mid east.

6. Yeah you can

I have a DVD burner, but it can be burned to CD. It'll take 3 CDs though, one for each part. Right click & "Save as". I made a special folder named "Power of Nightmares" When they're downloaded just burn them as a Video CD (VCD). Most DVD players will play them. I use Nero but there are lots of burning programs out there. Download the biggest file you can handle for the best quality.
