Power of Nightmares Documentary (Neo-Cons) Not Available in U.S.

Via Mobtown Shank:

"'THE POWER OF NIGHTMARES' DOCUMENTARY
http://sugarfreak.typepad.com/mobtownshank/2006/08/shanktv_the_pow.html
The new Wholphin #2 DVD (http://www.atomicbooks.com/products/-/338.html) contains a bonus disc that has part one of a 3-part BBC series that can't find release in the United States. It's called THE POWER OF NIGHTMARES, and this Part One is called "Baby, It's Cold Outside."

The documentary traces the origins of the 2 forces creating a lot of problems in the world today, Extreme Islam and Neo-Conservativism.

This is one of those documentaries that helped snap the world into a much clearer picture, as it traces the rise of Leo Strauss and his followers (NeoCons), and Sayyid Qutb and his followers (Islamic Extemists), both of which came out of post-WWII America in response to the "decadence" they saw. Both extermely disturbed by American individualism, and both, interestingly, willing to abandon reality as a means to an end.

Anyway, if you haven't seen it, get WHOLPHIN #2 (http://www.atomicbooks.com/products/-/338.html) and check it out.

I've been desperate to see the rest, and thanks to a tip from a friend (thanks, Robin), here it is:

Again, this whole thing is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED."

2. I bought the DVD on e-bay, all three hours, for about $10.00.
Was a very good investment.
